Break a Leg by J. Blue Spicer

Mimi was nervous. She had always been given the starring role in plays and skits in class, but now she was the star of the yearly high school musical as a freshman. Though she knew most of the stage crew, considering they were friends from middle school, the rest of the cast consisted of upperclassmen. Ever since she won the biggest part in tryouts, she noticed they were giving her the cold shoulder.
The night of the first show came, and Mimi was fantastic. The crowd got lost in the fact that they were watching a high school musical, until something went wrong during a set change. Mitchell, a junior who was head of the stage crew, had tripped over a prop left near the stage and tumbled into the orchestra pit. The crowd gasped, and the high schoolers froze just as the scene had ended, but Mimi was quick on her feet. She improvised a line, got the crowd and the cast to laugh, and she even jumped into the pit to help Mitchell as best as she could.
After the show, Mimi's only concern was Mitchell. She found him sitting among the juniors and seniors backstage. "How is your leg?"
"It's been better, but I don't think I'll miss a show," Mitchell said blankly. As Mimi told him goodbye and wished him well, she felt some pats on her shoulder and heard a few claps. She smiled and knew the show was going to be better tomorrow.

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.
