Read a literary analysis written by Jessa about part 1 of The Call of the Wild. In The Call of the Wild, Buck is presented as a confident character. Jack London describes Buck at home in California and insists, “Among the terriers he stalked imperiously, and Toots and Ysabel he utterly ignored, for he was king. . . .” Even when Buck is beaten and deposited in the Arctic, he stays calm. When his friend Curly is killed by a pack, London says of Buck, “Well, he would see to it that he never went down.” Wherever he goes, Buck survives with ease.

How could the final sentence be revised to present a clear conclusion?

A)It is surprising that Buck becomes leader of the pack.

B)Buck’s overconfidence helps him defeat any enemy.

C)Buck’s strength guides him through the challenges he faces.

D)Buck takes control on the judge’s farm, but not in the Arctic wild.
