Which quote from the passage suggests conflict? O "They quarrelled and bickered more than ever
among themselves.
O "Dave and Sol-leks alone were unaltered."
The breaking down of discipline likewise affected the
dogs in their relations with one another. They quarrelled
and bickered more than ever among themselves, till at
times the camp was a howling bedlam. Dave and Sol-leks
alone were unaltered, though they were made irritable by
the unending squabbling. Francois swore strange
barbarous oaths, and stamped the snow in futile rage,
and tore his hair. His lash was always singing among the
dogs, but it was of small avail. Directly his back was
turned they were at it again. He backed up Spitz with his
whip, while Buck backed up the remainder of the team.
Francois knew he was behind all the trouble, and Buck
knew he knew; but Buck was too clever ever again to be
caught red-handed. He worked faithfully in the harness,
for the toil had become a delight to him; yet it was a
greater delight slyly to precipitate a fight amongst his
mates and tangle the traces.
