Answer:

Motifs are the cultural/social expectations of the world.  They are mainly used in pre 20th century texts.  For example in the Bluest Eye by Tony Morrison, the young, poor, uneducated and black girl feels obligated to act ashamed, small and insecure when purchasing the Mary Jane's from the candy shop.

What theme of Richard Connell’s story “The Most Dangerous Game” comes through in this excerpt?
Tems11 [23]

The Most Dangerous Game story as two major themes. The first one is reason vs. Instinct and The Effects of War.

On this excerpt, you can see that the theme is reason vs. instinct. The hunter thinks that hunting is a good sport even though it kills an animal that has no way of defending itself. The character Whitney defends that the jaguar has feelings, especially the fear of pain and being killed.

This way this character is used to blur differences between animals and humans, that both have the same feelings.
