Describe how the author uses suspense to keep readers interested in The Most Dangerous Game

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Richard Connell used short terse sentences to give a feeling of suspense, making the readers remain focused on the story. Without revealing much, he also ensures that the readers remain focused on the story, hanging by the thread in anticipation of what is to happen. And the projection of enmity, friction between the two hunters, and their need to succeed give the full sense of suspense.

Explanation:

Suspense is the state of feeling uncertain, anxious yet excited over what will happen in the future. This mental feeling helps authors navigate through the story by giving the readers a sense of excitement on what is to happen yet seems uncertain and even at times scared over what will be the outcome.

In Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game", the feeling of suspense begins right after Sanger Rainsford got into "Ship Trap Island". As Whitney puts it, "Sailors have a curious dread of the place" which forebodes an eerie feeling over what is really happening on that island. And then comes the discovery of the "twenty-two" empty cartridge, the print of hunting shoes, the pistol shots he heard, and the screaming sound all provides a suspenseful atmosphere.

Then, when he met with Colonel Zaroff and the game was decided, another suspense begins. Sanger's need to stay safe and avoid detection for three days from the clutches of Colonel Zaroff and his hunting party, the will to kill each other-one to get his freedom and the other to enjoy a game of hunting, all add to the suspense. And throughout all these, the plot-line progresses in succession, without giving away much while at the same time, the short, terse sentences giving us a clue on what is to be expected and how they will be used between the two men pitted against each other.

Summarize Scrooge’s first two experiences with the Ghost of Christmas Past, and explain how they affect his perspective.

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

I will only write drafts for your question so it is not plagiarism when you use this. Hope this helps!

Explanation:

topic sentence: When Scrooge went on a journey through his past, present, and future with the ghosts of Christmas, he was able to gain a new perspective about his life, especially about his past. Here is what his perspective shifted too.

reason: When traveling with the ghost of Christmas past, Scrooge was able to look at his life from a third-person perspective, so he was able to see his younger self instead of being him in the moment.

evidence: (never read this book nor the text so look back find a sentence or two and bring it in smoothly throughout the text) Try fitting in your statement like, "here is what it looked like for Scrooge in the text." Or, "This is what he saw when looking back to his younger self." etc.

end of reason 1: Scrooge was able to understand he was not responsible for his mistreatment as a child but that he is responsible for his mistakes as an adult.

reason 2: Another thing that changed Scrooges perspective was that he learns the simple things in life like love, friendship, and laughter hold much more value than money.

Explanation/Evidence: (never have read this book nor the text so look back find a sentence or two and bring it in smoothly throughout the text) Try fitting in your statement like, "here is what it looked like for Scrooge in the text." Or, "This is what he saw when looking back to his younger self." Or, "This is what got to Mr. Scrooge so he could learn this lesson,"

End of reason 2: Scrooge needed to learn about the value of love, friendship, and laughter so he would learn life isn't just about how much money and/or if you have any money at all.

Conclusion: Scrooge was able to change his perspective so much just by visiting the Ghost of Christmas Past. Proving that he was able to change and live his life to the fullest.

Paragraph 2:

Write about a opinion of yours or summary towards the book or about when scrooge meets the ghosts or an opinion of who you think helped him the most or why the past ghost was there first etc. etc.
