What’s the answer

Paxton has been asked to write and reflect on the theme of law maintaining order in society. He is using this passage from The Jungle Book. He loved better than anything else to go with Bagheera into the dark warm heart of the forest, to sleep all through the drowsy day, and at night see how Bagheera did his killing. Bagheera killed right and left as he felt hungry, and so did Mowgli—with one exception. As soon as he was old enough to understand things, Bagheera told him that he must never touch cattle because he had been bought into the Pack at the price of a bull's life. "All the jungle is thine," said Bagheera, "and thou canst kill everything that thou art strong enough to kill; but for the sake of the bull that bought thee thou must never kill or eat any cattle young or old. That is the Law of the Jungle." Mowgli obeyed faithfully. Which writing sample is the best reflection of this important theme? Friendship can overcome all differences. Bagheera is a leopard, but he is still a good friend to Mowgli, a human. Bagheera paid a bull as a price for Mowgli and now is teaching him to hunt. Laws keep society orderly and safe. When Mowgli was small, Bagheera paid a bull as a price for his life. To show respect for that bull, Mowgli must obey the law. Mowgli follows this law, which keeps him safe. Bigger and stronger creatures should look out for smaller creatures. Bagheera is large, strong, and fierce. He looks out for Mowgli by teaching him the ways of the jungle. He takes him hunting. Eating meat is an unhealthy habit. Bagheera teaches Mowgli to avoid eating beef because it is not as healthy as honey or fruit. Mowgli is obedient and does not eat beef.
