Answer 1

1. The author describes Buck's progress as retrogression because B. Buck was returning to his ancient instinctual roots. He is partly domesticated, but nevertheless he feels the urge to return to his roots of a wild animal.
2. The literary element that describes how Francois and Perrault speak in the novel is called C. dialect. It is the way that people talk in some areas of the world.
3.The option which is not an element of plot is A. point of view (because that is the perspective of the novel), whereas climax and exposition are.
4. Climax is the most intense part of a novel which leads to the resolution of a text. Here, the climax in chapter 3 is when B. Buck and Spits have a final confrontation.
