Explanation:

The phrases- “A leap from the air” and “ordinarily these problems” are the key phrases here to understand how it contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt. The former presents a situation that is not possible. There’s no hold in air, and to leap from it is implying that they were performing the impossible at the top of each wave, which presented such problems “ordinarily.” The understated way in which these are mentioned intensifies the hopelessness of the situation. And the fact that the boat had been compared to a horse that had to “leap again” over a high fence facilitates the image that this statement paints.

The right to make my dreams come true,
I ask, nay, I demand of life,
Nor shall fate's deadly contraband
Impede my steps, nor countermand;
Too long my heart against the ground
Has beat the dusty years around,
And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!

LEGO Builders Can Go Pro
Let's say you're spending the day building a LEGO model. You rummage through multitudes of multicolored bricks until you spot—aha!—just the right sizes and shapes. You arrange and assemble them, carefully constructing your masterpiece brick by brick. The reward for your stick-to-itiveness might be a car, a castle, or a character from your favorite movie. It could be a dinosaur, a donut shop, or a detailed replica of the International Space Station. Now imagine you had something else to show for your efforts…a paycheck!
That's all in a day's work for LEGO model designers. These creative professionals earn a living by playing with the popular plastic construction toys. They develop the designs for the LEGO sets sold around the world, from simple products for young kids to monumental challenges for collectors. Open any LEGO box and you can see the results of hundreds of choices made by designers. They decide on the shapes, sizes, colors, and quantities of the pieces and how they fit together.
But not all their creations are destined to be packaged in a box and sold from store shelves. Designers also get to make the models used in LEGO movies, as well as plan and construct the miniature metropolises and larger-than-life figures at LEGOLAND theme parks. Imagine getting paid to build an 8-foot (2.4-meter) sculpture of Batman out of LEGO bricks. Now that's a dream job with super fun benefits!
Designers use their imaginations and problem-solving skills to turn ideas into reality, staying involved from conception to production. To develop a design, they use both hands-on and digital techniques. They might begin by settling down with a bunch of bricks, trying out different ideas and combinations. Once they've put together a workable physical model, they recreate their design virtually using animation software.
What kind of education and experience do you need to land this gig? Many LEGO model designers studied 3-D (three-dimensional) arts or architecture in college. But the ability to transform a pile of plastic pieces into a masterful model is essential. That means one of the best ways to prepare for this job is to spend a lot of time…playing with LEGO! If you like to while away hour after hour up to your elbows in those beloved bricks, you could be building a strong foundation for a career.
For LEGO model designers, creativity is key, so if you're interested in going pro, think outside the box. It's great to be able to follow the directions to build a packaged model. But coming up with your own creations can be even more constructive. The company suggests that would-be designers start by using LEGO bricks to copy real-world objects, then move on to envisioning fantastical creations fresh from their own imaginations.
Need some inspiration to build on? The LEGO Group's website LEGO Ideas (ideas.lego.com) is a hub for dedicated LEGO fans of all ages. Kids, teens, and AFOLs (Adult Fans of LEGO) can share their creations with other LEGO enthusiasts. They can take part in activities and challenges and enter contests to win prizes, including LEGO sets, shopping sprees, or even trips. So even if you're not ready to put together a plan for a career as a LEGO model designer, there are still some ways to play with these cool construction toys for fun and profit!

Read the excerpt from part 3 of The Call of the Wild.

Pike, who pulled at Buck's heels, and who never put an ounce more of his weight against the breast-band than he was compelled to do, was swiftly and repeatedly shaken for loafing; and ere the first day was done he was pulling more than ever before in his life. The first night in camp, Joe, the sour one, was punished roundly—a thing that Spitz had never succeeded in doing. Buck simply smothered him by virtue of superior weight, and cut him up till he ceased snapping and began to whine for mercy.

The evidence from this excerpt best supports the theme that

strong leaders know how to maintain order.
we are all ruled by our natural instincts.
loyalty can be a strong force in the wild.
only the strongest are able to survive.
