Read the excerpt from Part 2 of "The Most Dangerous Game,” by Richard Connell. Following the trail with the sureness of a bloodh

ound came General Zaroff. Nothing escaped those searching black eyes, no crushed blade of grass, no bent twig, no mark, no matter how faint, in the moss. So intent was the Cossack on his stalking that he was upon the thing Rainsford had made before he saw it. His foot touched the protruding bough that was the trigger. Even as he touched it, the general sensed his danger and leaped back with the agility of an ape. But he was not quite quick enough; the dead tree, delicately adjusted to rest on the cut living one, crashed down and struck the general a glancing blow on the shoulder as it fell; but for his alertness, he must have been smashed beneath it. What is the most likely reason the film adaptation changes this scene so that General Zaroff shoots arrows at Rainsford and his companion? to increase the number of props to create an opportunity for added dialogue to add a visual that creates suspense to make the setting seem more realistic

The most likely reason that the film adaption of "The Most Dangerous Game" changes this scene so that General Zaroff shoots arrows at Rainsford and his companion is to add a visual that creates suspense. The creators of the movie would have wanted the viewers to question what would happen. If they would have tried to portray this scene as in the book it would have been difficult to receive the same reaction as is created by reading the scene.

Read the sentence.
ELEN [110]

Answer:

This is an example of a metaphor.

Explanation:

A metaphor is a comparison of two unlike things without using like or as.  The justice system is being compared to a scale.  It further explains what a scale is.  This is most likely why a scale is symbolic of court.
