The call of the wild

It tells a story about a gigantic dog who was called Buck. It was stolen from a rich

and comfortable home by the man who was in debt. Then buck was forced to learn

to survive as an Alaskan sled dog(阿拉斯加雪橇犬).Buck encountered his true owner

John Thornton who is very friendly and kindhearted after a long terrify life. Finally,

John’s incidental death break Buck’s last tie to the man and drives him into the call of

the wild.

In this story, Buck and John simply adopt themselves to answer the call of the wild.

Buck will eventually leave John one day even if the incidental death does not happen

to John. Buck just wanted to help his master finish the gold-rush-trip when the wild

comes to his mild.

‘From then on, night and day, never put a halt, in desperation, he burst into long

stretch of fight, did not to stay him (John)’. Buck wished to remember John’ image

forever. I could not hold my tears bursting. Can a real man devote himself to loyalty

and friendship in such a way? On the other hand, John Thornton is not only a

dog-lover but also a brave and venturous man. He is so straightforward and simple

that makes him an accommodating man. Once he firmly roots a goal into his heart, it

seems that nothing could prevent him from accomplishing it except death. I do not

know whether the persistence is the most vital element to make a man successful,

but what I know is that you are not far away from success once you occupy it.

It is Jack London who let us into the animated wild from the hustle-and-bustle and

from desperate city. There, I merely cannot deny the attraction of Buck’s bark, which

enlightens me to pursue another lost half of the nature in mankind, and to dig out a

true meaning of life. What is the essence of human beings? What is the civilization to

us? Do we need to look back at where we came from? Is it good or bad for us to

speak out what we think and to do what the consciences demand us to? It is

thought-provoking.
