Which of the following describes a decision Krakauer made about the structure of Into the Wild?
A.
He waits until the end to reveal that McCandless died.
B.
He waits until the end to describe McCandless's dying days.
D.
He spends an early chapter describing how McCandless's family found out about his death.
C. He starts the book with the discovery of McCandless's body and then goes back in time to tell the story leading up to his death.
The decision Krakauer made about the structure of Into the Wild is option B. He waits until the end to describe McCandless's dying days.
To determine the correct answer, we can analyze the structure of the book "Into the Wild" by Jon Krakauer. The book follows the story of Chris McCandless, a young man who ventures into the wilderness of Alaska and eventually dies there.
Option A states that Krakauer waits until the end to reveal that McCandless died. This answer is incorrect because Krakauer actually discloses McCandless's death early on in the book.
Option B suggests that Krakauer waits until the end to describe McCandless's dying days. While it is true that Krakauer does provide details about McCandless's final moments, this is not the main decision he made about the structure of the book.
Option D states that Krakauer spends an early chapter describing how McCandless's family found out about his death. This is the correct answer. In "Into the Wild," Krakauer includes a chapter titled "The Stikine Ice Cap," which provides background information on McCandless's family and their journey to discover what happened to him.
Therefore, the correct answer is D – Krakauer spends an early chapter describing how McCandless's family found out about his death.
