excerpt from The Time Machine
by H. G. Wells
I don't know if you have ever thought what a rare
thing flame must be in the absence of man and in a
temperate climate. The sun's heat is rarely strong
enough to burn, even when it is focused by
dewdrops, as is sometimes the case in more tropical
districts. Lightning may blast and blacken, but it rarely
gives rise to widespread fire. Decaying vegetation
may occasionally smoulder with the heat of its
fermentation, but this rarely results in flame. In this
decadence, too, the art of fire-making had been
forgotten on the earth. The red tongues that went
licking up my heap of wood were an altogether new
and strange thing to Weena.
The flame is a symbol of
A. an object of innovation
OB. a complicated problem.
c. a brilliant personality.
OD
an adventurous journey.

Read the excerpt from muir's essay "calypso borealis" and answer the question. [5] how long i sat beside calypso i don't know. hunger and weariness vanished, and only after the sun was low in the west i splashed on through the swamp, strong and exhilarated as if never more to feel any mortal care. at length i saw maple woods on a hill and found a log house. i was gladly received. "where ha ye come fra? the swamp, that awfu' swamp. what were ye doin' there? " etc. "mony a puir body has been lost in that muckle, cauld, dreary bog and never been found." when i told her i had entered it in search of plants and had been in it all day, she wondered how plants could draw me to these awful places, and said, "it's god's mercy ye ever got out." examine the details muir includes in this paragraph. which statement accurately explains how muir's response to nature compares to the log house owner's response? he is enthusiastic and in awe while she is doubtful and fearful. muir cautiously admires whereas the lady shows religious dedication. the lady is more interested in the bog while muir is fascinated by plants. they both admire nature—its intense dangers and its true treasures.
