How does Brian's perception of danger change as he spends more time in the wilderness?

• A. He becomes reckless and ignores risks
• B. He grows to fear danger more and more
• C. He relies on technology to solve problems
• D. He develops a calm, measured, and practical approach to risks

Answer: (D)

The main idea here is that Brian shifts from reacting with panic to handling danger in a steady, practical way as he adapts to the wilderness. Over time he learns to observe, assess, and plan instead of acting on impulse. He focuses on building essential safeguards—fire, shelter, clean water, and reliable tools—and tests his ideas with careful, small steps before taking bigger risks. With each success, his confidence grows and his approach becomes more calm and methodical, letting him manage risks rather than be overwhelmed by them. He isn’t relying on technology or becoming reckless; instead, he uses his growing skills and awareness to navigate dangers in a measured, pragmatic manner. That steady, practical mindset is why the described option best captures his change.
