Read the excerpt from The Call of the Wild. From every hill slope came the trickle of running water, the music of unseen fountains. All things were thawing, bending, snapping. The Yukon was straining to break loose the ice that bound it down. It ate away from beneath; the sun ate from above. Air-holes formed, fissures sprang and spread apart, while thin sections of ice fell through bodily into the river. And amid all this bursting, rending, throbbing of awakening life, under the blazing sun and through the soft-sighing breezes, like wayfarers to death, staggered the two men, the woman, and the huskies.

Which phrases best use descriptive language to help readers hear what is happening in the scene?

the trickle of running water; soft-sighing breezes
All things were thawing; thin sections of ice fell
The Yukon was straining; under the blazing sun
the ice that bound it down; staggered the two men
