The narrator, George Orwell, thought that "it would be murder to shoot an elephant." When he found the elephant, he did not want to kill it because he thought that it was no longer dangerous. But he still kills it because of the want to be a part or liked by the society. In short, he was "peer-pressured" by the people.

In 150 words or less, write a plot synopsis of The Most Dangerous Game.
Maslowich

Answer:

In "The Most Dangerous Game," we meet Zaroff and Rainsford. Rainsford is a hunter who is travelling to the Amazon in order to hunt a jaguar. However, he falls overboard and ends up in a semi-deserted island, where Zaroff lives. Zaroff is also a hunter, but he informs Rainsford that he prefers to hunt humans, as they are a lot more interesting. He tells Rainsford that if he is able to avoid being hunted for three days, he will regain his liberty. Although Rainsford does so, and Zaroff accepts not to hunt him anymore, the story implies that Rainsford ends up killing Zaroff and winning the "game."
