It's not clear what your questions are about. According to second question it's Call of the Wild. I hope, I've got it correctly. Here are my answers:
5. If I remember it well, the early lesson that Buck learns in his new life is He learns to sleep in the snow.
8. I think that the stories of the “ghost wolf” roaming the woods are part of rising action.
10. If my memory serves me well, the author mainly reveals Tasha’s character by "I hate the cold, and besides, I’m not sure I like sledding."
