Read this passage from The Jungle Book.

The Law of the Jungle lays down very clearly that any wolf may, when he marries, withdraw from the Pack he belongs to; but as soon as his cubs are old enough to stand on their feet he must bring them to the Pack Council, which is generally held once a month at full moon, in order that the other wolves may identify them. After that inspection the cubs are free to run where they please, and until they have killed their first buck no excuse is accepted if a grown wolf of the Pack kills one of them. The punishment is death where the murderer can be found; and if you think for a minute you will see that this must be so. How are the wolf cubs affected by the Law of the Jungle?
a. wolf cubs will have to be revealed to the pack.
b. wolf cubs will join the pack council after he gets married.
c. wolf cubs was raised by wolves, so he is automatically a member of the pack.
d. wolf cubs does not have to attend the pack council, because pack rules do not apply to him.

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

C is not it because the cubs must first visit the council to be recognized by the pack.

D is clearly not it, cubs must visit the council.

That leaves A.
