<span>The image of the majestic chateau mounted upon formidable cliffs seems a mirage to Rainsford after his desperate swim to shore. For, here on an island of the Caribbean is a castle from the other side of the world. But, yet, there is something sinister in it which foreshadows dangers ahead for Sanger Rainsford because of the highs cliff upon which it is placed, the "medieval magnificence" of it that suggests the base, cruel image of General Zaroff, whose many animals that he has shot are stuffed and mounted on the walls as "At the great table the general was sitting alone."</span>

Use your research to write a testimonial about the individual's importance in history. What influence did he or she have on his
yaroslaw [1]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Te question does not mention any individual in specific, so we assume that we choose the individual we like to write the testimonial.

We choose Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He was an important figure and led the civil rights movement in the United States. He followed the ideals of liberty and tolerance and influenced millions of people. On his positive side, Dr. King could congregate thousands of people to the civil rights movement cause. He set the example. He was at the very front of the protests and marches. One very good thing he had was that he supported peaceful demonstrations, never violent protests. His "Letter From the Birmingham Jail" and "I Haad a Dream" speech, have influenced modern leaders around the world.

On the negative side, probably he could have been more open and tolerant to negotiate with authorities or to join forces with other black leaders such as Malcolm X, that although he used violence in his protests, the union of more African American leaders could have taken the movement to different dimensions and accomplishments.
