Answer 2

Laws keep society orderly and safe. When Mowgli was small, Bagheera paid a bull as a price for his life. To show respect for that bull, Mowgli must obey the law. Mowgli follows this law, which keeps him safe.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the requirement to write and reflect on the theme of how the law helps maintain order in a society, Paxton can draw his opinion and writing sample from the given passage about Mowgli and the price for his life paid by a bull.

Mowgli's life was paid for by a bull, thereby implying that the bull is the 'savior' of his life. This, according to Bagheera, is why Mowgli must stay away from attacking any cattle. One must never turn on one's savior and must always ensure peace between them. Therefore, Bagheera's advice of respecting the bull which Mowgli obeys allows for peace between man and the forest animals. This is reflective of the theme of how laws help keep society safe and in order when everyone stays within the rule of the law and does not deviate from them

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
