Unit Exam: On Our Way Listen Read the passage from "Husky-Wolf Dog of the North." [The husky) is also an actor of no mean ability, concealing the most nefarious designs under the innocent exterior of a newborn lamb. In the old days, before the discovery of the Klondike, the men who freighted grub from Circle City to Birch Creek were wont to charge ten cents per pound more for bacon than for any other merchandise.

c. the men charged more to transport bacon because they knew the miners in the other camps would pay a higher price to feed their dogs

d. the men charged more to transport bacon because they knew the Huskies would need to run fast to deliver it before it spoiled

normally working animals are domesticated and ruled by a master, a domesticator (tamer), to perform basic and important functions on a farm, for example. the value used in this context is animal labor in exchange for food. it is not so much a contrast to the story told by napoleon and the pigs, since the animals of that particular farm also performed functions on the farm through domestication. the only thing is that in this case, who rules them is a pig, also an animal, but very respected, to whom the other animals lent him submission. that's about a strong relationship of dependency between animal and owner.
