Breakfast eaten and the slim camp-outfit lashed to the sled, the men turned their backs on the cheery fire and launched out into the darkness. At once began to rise the cries that were fiercely sad—cries that called through the darkness and cold to one another and answered back. Conversation ceased. Daylight came at nine o'clock. At midday the sky to the south warmed to rose-colour, and marked where the bulge of the earth intervened between the meridian sun and the northern world. But the rose-colour swiftly faded. The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o'clock, when it, too, faded, and the pall of the Arctic night descended upon the lone and silent land. As darkness came on, the hunting-cries to right and left and rear drew closer—so close that more than once they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs, throwing them into short-lived panics. At the conclusion of one such panic, when he and Henry had got the dogs back in the traces, Bill said: "I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone." "They do get on the nerves horrible," Henry sympathized. They spoke no more until camp was made. The introductory paragraph to this section of text starts with breakfast and ends with the setting of Arctic sun. How does this short paragraph add to the conflict in the story? It suggests time is running out before the story even begins.

The bubonic plague killed 35% to 50% of the european population. the death toll was much higher in urban areas then in rural ones. the disproportion of mortality rates can be attributed to fact that cities were more densely populated then rural areas. england and italy were mostly affected; in some towns, the plague claimed 70-80% of the residents. the high death rates resulted in a large amount of wealth and property being passed from one owner to another as people moved from the country to the and other members of the clergy contracted the plague at a higher rate, because they had more contact with people infected by the disease. because of the high mortality rate, the church was desperately in need of new priests. many young priests were ordained without proper training. these inexperienced clergymen caused many to lose respect for the church. according to the passage, what were the effects of the plague? select all that apply. about 70 percent of europeans died. the plague resulted in people moving to the cities. the plague caused people to lose faith in the church. more people enrolled in universities and became priests. wealth and property changed hands after people died.
