To build a fire by Jack London

To build a fire by Jack London

Respond to these questions

1.  Which 10 words are the most important for this story?  Make a list.

2.  Write about 150 words.
Why is the old man in Fairbanks important to the story? The young man got the idea to save himself by killing the dog to warm his hands so that he might light a new fire.  Would you have thought of the same idea under these circumstances?   What happened in this story that is typical of young men?

3.  Do you ever walk home late alone in the winter?  Is it a safe thing to sit down and rest if you have been drinking or feel tired?
