Answer 2

Based on the beginning of "To Build a Fire," the inference which we can make about the man is:

D. His ego prevents him from listening to those with experience.

• "To Build a Fire" is a short story by author Jack London.

• The story is set in the Yukon region in Canada. The main character is a man who decides to go into the forest on his own. His only company is a dog.

• However, at the beginning of the story, the man is advised against this decision.

• An old and clearly more experienced man tells him not to go, especially alone.

• Nature is, after all, relentless. A man alone in the wildness while the temperatures fall lower and lower, is not going to survive.

• But the main character does not heed his advice. He is too confident in his own skills.

• It is his ego, so to speak, that ends up killing him. Had he listened to the old man, he would have stayed alive.
