Answer:
sorry but Im so creative that I gave a lot of words. You can pick some points from my answer.
Explanation:
If there is such a thing as karma in the world of fiction, Rainsford definitely begins to experience it as he comes to understand what it means to be the hunted instead of the hunter. When Rainsford falls off his yacht and has to swim to Ship Trap Island, he engages in a deadly game with General Zaroff, the owner of the island. Zaroff, too, is a hunter, and he wants the ultimate prize, a human kill. Throughout the story, Rainsford and Zaroff square off in a “survival of the fittest” death match to see who is the most powerful. The two men engage in a cat and mouse game, and Rainsford symbolically becomes an animal who has to use all of his instincts to survive. At the end of the story, Rainsford confronts Zaroff in his bedroom. The hunted, Rainsford, has now cornered the hunter, Zaroff. They have a sword duel, and Rainsford kills Zaroff and sleeps in Zaroff’s bed that night.
I’m not so sure Rainsford learns or changes much by the end of the story. There isn’t any epiphany at the end where Rainsford vows he will never hunt again. The ending is ambiguous in its meaning. Does Rainsford enjoy killing Zaroff and now have killing humans “in his blood”? Or, does he learn a lesson about killing innocent animals because he finally understands what it feels like to be tracked and hunted? It’s up to the reader to decide because the author, Richard Connell, really leaves it up in the air for the reader to analyze. Perhaps Rainsford’s karma is yet to be realized.
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
What is the pronoun in the sentence, and is it personal, intensive, or reflexive?
In the early 1840's, adventurous settlers readied themselves for the overland trip to the West.
Answer:
Themselves, reflexive
Explanation:
The sentence above features the reflective pronoun "Themselves". This type of pronoun is one that presents a reflexive action that redirects itself to the subject of the sentence.
The subject of the sentence shown in the sentence above is "adventurous settlers" and we can see that "readied" is a reflexive action that falls on them, making "themselves" a reflective pronoun.
Every reflexive pronoun has the ending "self" or "selves".
It's most likely D, having little value.
Context clues:
Fans want to hear the important parts of the game, so if he is trying to "annoy" them, he must not be saying anything important. So it's "having little value".
Everything is true except D. A presentation should not rely excessively on one type of support or it will become boring and sound contrived.
