Character Development in White Fang

Question 3 • SS-English Language Arts 7

Read this excerpt from White Fang.In the same way he resented his mother being tied with a stick, even though it was done by the superior man-animals. It savoured of the trap, of bondage. Yet of the trap and of bondage he knew nothing. Freedom to roam and run and lie down at will, had been his heritage; and here it was being infringed upon. His mother's movements were restricted to the length of a stick, and by the length of that same stick was he restricted, for he had not yet got beyond the need of his mother's side.What change in White Fang is presented in the excerpt?

Answer
A
White Fang no longer wishes to live in the wild.
B
White Fang no longer views his mother as all powerful.
C
White Fang no longer has any respect for the humans.
D
White Fang no longer views himself as an animal.

Explanation

White Fang sees that his mother can be restrained by the humans, and that he is restricted along with her. This shows he no longer sees her as all-powerful; the humans have power over both of them. The excerpt does not say that he wants to leave the wild or stops seeing himself as an animal.
