Question 1: D) And the clouds float away in a red-splashed light.

These words create a visual representation of ideas in our minds, a "red-splashed light" is key in the sentence as colors can only be perceived by our sight.

Question 2: A) Where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs.

When we have sensations of "burning" and "tickling", we perceive them through our tactile sense.

Question 3: D) Time, above me, within me, crashed its gongs

Gongs are rounded pieces of metals hung in a frame that, when it is hit, it produces a sound. Therefore, the option chosen appeals to the sense of hearing.

Question 4: A) Sight.

When we read "sparkling eyes", we can imagine eyes that shine brightly with flashes of light, and light can only be perceived through sight. And "teeth like pearls" also make reference to something shiny.

Question 5: C) Gloomy.

The narration is focused on the hopelessness feelings of the person, he or she finds the midnight "dreary", and he or she described themselves as "weak and weary". The narrator is pensive and seems unhappy, the mood is gloomy.

Question 6: D) All things rejoice in youth and love,/The fullness of their first delight!

Contemplation involves serious and deep thoughts. From the given options, this is the sentence that would involve such kind of thinking, as "youth", "love", "fullness" and "delight" are all ambiguous concepts, that may require some deep thinking to reach to the conclusions of what they really are, and mean to oneself.

Question 7: A) Soothing

The narrator uses positive words such as "shine", "silent delight" "smiles on the night", all of which evokes a soothing or calm feeling, free from worries, and anxiety. Furthermore, these words are not intended to console someone else from bad things, the narrator is just affirming their thoughts. And although the excerpt evokes positiveness and happiness, it doesn't depict something full of pleasure, or extremely enjoyable but it does it in a more calm way.

Question 8: A) Optimistic

It is optimistic because the narrator is hopeful, he or she lays emphasis on the good that is to come: the sense of sorrow will go away.

Answer from: ariestburks0513

1. And the clouds float away with a red-splashed light
The biggest indicator in this sentence would be the red-splashed light. Color can only be experienced through sight (you cannot hear it, taste it, smell it, or touch it). The other statements, however, do appeal to other senses.

2. Where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs. Burning and tickling sensations deal with touch. Again you cannot experience these with other senses.

3. Time, above me, within me, crashed its gongs

4. Sight

5. Gloomy

6. All thing rejoice in youth and love, the fullness of their first delight
A contemplative mood suggests one deep in thought. This line is quite a "deep" thought. The other lines simply sound like descriptions of what is being seen

7. Soothing
The feeling being created is not sad or tense at all, therefore removing consoling and anxious from the possible answers. We are left with soothing and delightful. It does have a happier tone to it, but it does not feel like an overwhelming sense of joy. With the depiction of night, the feeling being depicted is only of rest and tranquility of the night, making soothing the best choice.

8. Optimistic
Right away the excerpt begins with the thought that tomorrow will bring a better day where the "sense of sorrow ... will away". With hope in line, it is obvious that there is a feeling of optimism.

I did not explain all the answer choices because most related to previous questions, however, if you need more clarification let me know :)

Which sentences from part 1 of the call of the wild would best serve as evidence of the theme "sometimes survival depends on knowing when not to fight"? buck had accepted the rope with quiet dignity. to be sure, it was an unwonted performance: but he had learned to trust in men he knew, and to give them credit for a wisdom that outreached his own. he had merely intimated his displeasure, in his pride believing that to intimate was to command. but to his surprise the rope tightened around his neck, shutting off his breath. he saw, once for all, that he stood no chance against a man with a club. he had learned the lesson, and in all his after life he never forgot it. that had given them an unfair advantage; but now that it was off, he would show them. they would never get another rope around his neck.
