Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game." "Where there are pistol shots, there are men. Where there are men, there is foo

d," he thought. But what kind of men, he wondered, in so forbidding a place? An unbroken front of snarled and ragged jungle fringed the shore. He saw no sign of a trail through the closely knit web of weeds and trees; it was easier to go along the shore, and Rainsford floundered along by the water. Not far from where he had landed, he stopped. Some wounded thing, by the evidence a large animal, had thrashed about in the underbrush; the jungle weeds were crushed down and the moss was lacerated; one patch of weeds was stained crimson. A small, glittering object not far away caught Rainsford's eye and he picked it up. It was an empty cartridge.
Which details from the narration show that Rainsford is an experienced hunter and outdoor enthusiast? Check all that apply.

Jlenok [28]

A good artifact for Allen would be the ticket stub of a concert he went to in the past that spurred a desire to be a musician.

<h3>What is an artifact?</h3>
  • It is an object that represents a moment in the past.
  • It is an object created by humans that has a strong meaning.

Allen's desire to become a great musician was developed by the experiences he's had with music, such as the concerts he's attended in the past which represent a big moment in his life. As such, a ticket stub from these concerts would serve as a valuable artifact.

stepladder [879]

I looked this question up online and found that is has more sentences to be completed. Just in case you need them too, I will answer them.

Complete the sentences with the affirmative or negative forms of the verbs in brackets.

1. I ______ usually _______ (have) a snack between lunch and dinner.

2. She always _______ (have) a bath. She doesn't have a shower.

3. We finish school at 1 p.m. We _______ (go) to school in the afternoon.

4. They do a lot of exercise, but they ________ (play) football.

5. He ______ (wash) his hair every morning, and he always brushes it, too.

6. You've got terrible teeth because you _________ (brush) them!

Answer:

1. I don't usually have a snack between lunch and dinner.

2. She always has a bath...

3. ... We don't go to school in the afternoon.

4. ... but they don't play football.

5. He washes his hair every morning...

6. ... because you don't brush them!

Explanation:

The sentences above use the verb in the simple present tense. Here are the basic rules:

- Persons "I, you, we, they":

  • affirmative form --> the same as the infinitive of the verb without "to". For example: to eat - I eat - you eat - we eat - they eat.
  • negative form --> we place the auxiliary "don't" before the main verb: I don't eat.

- Persons "he, she, it":

  • affirmative form --> we add -s, -es, or -ies to the verb. Example: he eats / she studies / it watches.
  • negative form --> we place the auxiliary "doesn't" before the verb. The main verb goes back to the infinitive form. Example: She doesn't study.

Note: The verb "to have" changes a bit more in the third person: I have --> she has.

Alexandra [31]

I believe the tone is somewhat dramatic based on the dialogue such as "shot his hand out in front of him", it makes the story seem a lot more interesting than what it really is; a normal encounter.
