What contradiction can you find in chris mccandless's behavior and his attitude toward authority in the selection?

Answer:

Although Mccandless rejected the authority imposed on him by others, he takes an authoritarian stand on his own choices.

Explanation:

Chris Mcandless was a young man who abandoned social life to spend two years living in the jungle, with few resources, food and water. He took this action because he wanted to achieve definitive freedom, far from social rules and standards and economic and capitalist demands.

McCandless rejected the idea of authority, but he did not accept any advice and attempt to prevent that decision, behaving in an authoritarian manner and assuming the behavior that he rejected.

5.Which answer choice describes the point of view in this passage from Mark Twain’s account of his visit to France?

We noticed that in the jewelry stores they had some things marked "gold" and some labeled "imitation." We wondered at this honesty and askedabout it. We were informed that since most people are not able to tell false gold from the genuine article, the government requires jewelers to have their gold work stamped officially according to its fineness and their imitation work also labeled as false. They told us the jewelers would not dare to violate this law, and that whatever a stranger bought in one of their stores might be depended upon as being strictly what it was said to be. What a wonderful land is France!
