Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game."

A man, who had been hiding in the curtains of the bed, was standing there.

"Rainsford!" screamed the general. "How in God's name did you get here?"

"Swam," said Rainsford. "I found it quicker than walking through the
jungle."

The general sucked in his breath and smiled. "I congratulate you," he
said. "You have won the game."

Rainsford did not smile. "I am still a beast at bay," he said, in a low, hoarse voice. "Get ready, General Zaroff."

The general made one of his deepest bows. "I see," he said. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed. On guard, Rainsford." . . .

He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided.

Adrian is writing an essay about "The Most Dangerous Game.” Which detail from the excerpt best supports his idea that Rainsford is unchanged and still feels that the hunter is justified in killing the hunted?

Answer:

He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided.

Explanation:

Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game" follows the main protagonist Sanger Rainford and his encounter with a savage hunter. The story deals with themes of the hunted vs. the hunter, social Darwinism, civilization, savage, etc.

The given passage is from the end of the story where Rainsford had sneaked into the mansion of Colonel Zaroff, hiding behind the curtains. And in writing an essay where he argues for the unchanged behavior and attitude of Rainsford, the line "[h]e had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided" supports Adrian's belief. This line shows that he still has that hunter mentality in him, despite having just killed the colonel.

Answer:

C- Rainsford did not smile. "I am still a beast at bay," he said, in a low, hoarse voice. "Get ready, General Zaroff."

Explanation:

A- A man, who had been hiding in the curtains of the bed, was standing there.

B- "Swam," said Rainsford. "I found it quicker than walking through the

jungle."

C- Rainsford did not smile. "I am still a beast at bay," he said, in a low, hoarse voice. "Get ready, General Zaroff."
