Question

Read paragraph 2 from the

passage.

White Fanq had seen the camp-dogs toiling in the harness, So that he did not resent overmuch the first placing of the harness upon himself. About his neck was put a moss-stuffed collar, which was connected by two pulling-traces to a strap that passed around his chest and over his back. It was to this that was fastened the long rope by which he pulled at the sled.

What can be inferred about White Fang from this paragraph?

A. He realizes that the sled ne will be pulling is a small and light one.
B. He wants to prove his worth as a sled dog to Mit-sah's father.
C. He admires the other sled dogs and wants to be more like them.
D. He has witnessed other dogs wearing harnesses and pulling sleds.

Answer 1

option D. White Fang had seen other camp dogs working in harnesses and understood what was expected of him, indicating he was familiar with the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the paragraph presented, we can infer about White Fang that he has witnessed other dogs wearing harnesses and pulling sleds. The fact that White Fang did not resent the harness much, suggests that he was familiar with the sight of camp-dogs working and understood what was expected of him. There is no mention of the sled's size, his desire to prove worth, or admiration to be like the other sled dogs, which rules out options A, B, and C.

Answer 2

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

In this passage, White Fanq describes the camp dogs in their harness. He uses descriptive words, such as moss-stuffed collar and can illustrate, in detail, the sled and how it is connected to the dogs' collars. With this description and the attention to detail White Fanq has, it can be assumed that he has witnessed other dogs wearing harnesses and pulling sleds, at least the the extent that he can appropriately describe them.
