Answer:

Sheltered nook, all things rested

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question refers to the first two paragraphs of Jack London's story All Gold Canyon.

The options you were given are the following:

  • sheltered nook, all things rested
  • the very lip of the pool, tiny meadow
  • spangled with flowers, orange and purple and golden
  • chaos of rocks, hidden by a green screen

The phrases that show us that the canyon is peaceful are sheltered nook and all things rested . There is no noise, everything is peaceful and quiet - everything is resting. The rest of the phrases describe the setting well, but don't tell us anything about how peaceful the canyon is.
