The detail that best reveals that Mr. Rainsford opposes Zaroff's idea of the ideal prey is Mr. Rainsford's response near the end of the passage when he states that he is a hunter, not a murderer. This statement shows the reader that Mr. Rainsford believes that Zaroff hunting humans as prey makes him a murderer.
Last night -yes
With his friends -no
And won -no
Exciting and challenging -no
The best answer is D because it has incorrect grammar, and uses slang/jargon and a dialect known as ebonics that was typically present in black communities during this time.
B) Irving is condemning the colonists’
mistreatment of others.
<span>We know the answer is not “A” because Irving
would, thus, need to be praising the devil since he attributes the persecutions
to the devil as the devil mentions he presides at the persecutions. We know the answer is not “C” because
superstition is not innately evil and is considered silly to some, and there is
nothing silly about the killing those found guilty during the persecutions of
the Quakers and Anabaptists. We know “D”
is not the answer because there is no mention as to how colonists view the devil.
There is mention of how the devil is
known in other countries; the only mention of the devil and the colonists is
how the devil mentions he presides at persecutions. Thus, we know that “B” is the best response because
to describe actions as those being watched over and encouraged by the devil is a condemnation
insinuating those taking part are accessories/accomplices to evil. </span>
