Which excerpt from "The Call of the Wild" best uses sensory details to show readers that the dogs are close to death?

A. "And through it all, Buck staggered along at the head of the team as in a nightmare. He pulled when he could; when he could no longer pull, he fell down and remained down till blows from the whip or club drove him to his feet again."

B. "All the stiffness and gloss had gone out of his beautiful furry coat. The hair hung down, limp and draggled, or matted with dried blood where Hal's club had bruised him."

C. "The pain of the beating was dull and distant, just as the things their eyes saw and their ears heard seemed dim and far away."

D. "They were simply so many bags of bones in which sparks of life fluttered faintly."

E. "But the team did not get up at the command. It had long since passed into the stage where blows were required to rouse it. The whip flashed out, here and there, on its merciless errands."
