Answer 1

Krakauer includes two inscriptions that McCandless made in the bus to remind the reader of the philosophy that fueled McCandless' trip to Alaska.

What was McCandless' philosophy?

Chris McCandless' life philosophy and death were immortalized in the book "Into the Wild," by Jon Krakauer. In the attached passage, we can read two inscriptions made by McCandless that Krakauer made a point of including in the story.

His purpose for including the inscriptions is to remind readers of the philosophy that fueled McCandless' trip to Alaska. Both inscriptions speak of freedom from society, of releasing the animal that exists inside each one of us. McCandless wanted to feel completely free and alive, which is why he took the journey that would, unfortunately, kill him.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option D as the correct answer.
