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.

Answer: Dear Headmaster,

I have been wanting to let you know of some things that some students have been doing for the past week.

There is also a couple of students from the basketball team who have been bulling other students     and are planning on graffiti the school on Sunday. Please take care of these kids so that way kids still want to come to this school.

Sincerely,

Imma (verb)

I'm going to.

"I guess Imma just wing it

Asphalt, also known as bitumen , is a sticky, black, highly viscous liquid or semi-solid form of petroleum. It may be found in natural deposits or may be a refined product, and is classed as a pitch. Before the 20th century, the term asphaltum was also used.

The Asphalt Institute specifies four penetration grades: 60-70, 85-100, 120-150, and 200-300. The 60-70 grade is usually used only in pavements where traffic is very heavy such as principle city streets and very heavily trafficked rural highways.

Discuss the major plot events of the play—the exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution—in detail.
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Exposition: A direct way of telling the reader/audience what's happening in the story before it starts. It sets the tone of the whole storyincluding establishing the characters and where the story is going to take place. Think of James Bond's conversations with M at MI6. This is the exposition part of the story.

Rising Action: Because of what is established in the exposition, the characters in the story are led to do something. This part gets more suspenseful as the story progresses making the audience wonder what's going to happen next. That's why it's a "rising" action. Think of Bond's activities when he's gathering intelligence about the antagonist and surveilling him.

Climax: This is usually the most important part of the story. It's the culmination of everything that's happened in the story so far and the point where a choice or an action is made the affects every part of the story. Think of the moment when Bond meets the antagonist, or more specifically, their outright confrontation.

Falling action: This is the part of the story which shows the consequences of climax and the "fallout." Think of Bond escaping from a place that's about to go up in flames after he's beat his antagonist.

Resolution: This is the conclusion of the story that wraps everything up and fills in any details that hadn't been revealed before so that the story is fully understood. And it gives you an indication of what's to happen once the story ends too. Think of the last bit of a Bond movie when Bond gets the girl again.

Hope this helps!
