Read the excerpt from Jungle Book: Mowgli's Brothers.

"He is our brother in all but blood," Akela went on; "and ye would kill him here! In truth, I have lived too long. Some of ye are eaters of cattle, and of others I have heard that, under Shere Khan's teaching, ye go by dark night and snatch children from the villager's door-step. Therefore I know ye to be cowards, and it is to cowards I speak. It is certain that I must die, and my life is of no worth, or I would offer that in the man-cub's place. But for the sake of the Honour of the Pack, – a little matter that, by being without a leader, ye have forgotten, – I promise that if ye let the man-cub go to his own place, I will not, when my time comes to die, bare one tooth against ye. I will die without fighting. That will at least save the Pack three lives. More I cannot do; but, if ye will, I can save ye the shame that comes of killing a brother against whom there is no fault, – a brother spoken for and bought into the Pack according to the Law of the Jungle."

Which two themes are expressed in this excerpt?

A) Family is the most important thing.

B) Strength comes from fighting others.
Without strong leadership, civilization is weak.
C) It is wise to listen to the elders in society.
Might makes right in most situations.
D) Rules are important for keeping order in society.
Sacrificing oneself is a great symbol of love.
