Read the excerpt from the narrative version of "The Nose."

"How shall I make myself clear to him?" Kovaloff thought. Then with new courage, he continued, "Naturally—besides I am a Major. You must admit I should have to go about without a nose. An old woman may carry on her business without one, but since I am on the look-out for a high position; besides, I know many women in high society. Pardon me; if one regards the matter from the point of view of duty and honor—you will yourself understand—"

"I understand nothing," answered the nose. "I repeat, please explain yourself more clearly."

"Honorable sir," said Kovaloff with dignity. "It seems to me the matter is as clear as possible. You are after all my own nose!"

The nose looked at the Major and wrinkled its forehead. "There you are wrong, respected sir; I am myself. Besides, there can be no close relations between us. To judge by the buttons of your uniform, you must be in quite a different department to mine." So saying, the nose turned away.

Which detail from the excerpt supports the theme "no one is better than anyone else"?

The nose rejects the idea that Kovalev deserves a nose because he is important.
Kovalev attempts to be polite to the nose at first, but then loses his temper.
The nose wears a military uniform and rides around in a carriage.

Which sentences from part 1 of the call of the wild would best serve as evidence of the theme "sometimes survival depends on knowing when not to fight"? buck had accepted the rope with quiet dignity. to be sure, it was an unwonted performance: but he had learned to trust in men he knew, and to give them credit for a wisdom that outreached his own. he had merely intimated his displeasure, in his pride believing that to intimate was to command. but to his surprise the rope tightened around his neck, shutting off his breath. he saw, once for all, that he stood no chance against a man with a club. he had learned the lesson, and in all his after life he never forgot it. that had given them an unfair advantage; but now that it was off, he would show them. they would never get another rope around his neck.
