Your will depend on your point of view. Here's my answer from one viewpoint:

While humans can sometimes behave in inhuman and animalistic ways, on the whole we’re pretty civilized. When living in the confines of a civilized society, most humans typically follow the rules of the society. A normal, stable person would not harm other people or animals for fun. The only time humans may forget about being civilized is when their own lives or the lives of those they love are threatened.  In the story, when Rainsford is on the yacht, he brags about being an unemotional hunter. He admires the sophistication of Zaroff’s house and even the man himself. However, as soon as he figures out that he is the next game that Zaroff intends to hunt, he runs for dear life. Toward the end, after playing the hunting game with Zaroff, Rainsford even calls himself “an animal at bay,” which implies that an animal lies dormant in every human. Also, the fact that Zaroff can hunt down other human beings for fun shows his predator instincts.  In real life too, there are incidents in which humans exhibit uncivilized and animal-like behavior. Take, for example, warring nations, which use troops to kill one another. The violence of war sometimes makes me wonder whether humans are actually evolved and civilized. There are also reports of people committing murder, torture, and other violent acts. But I’d like to believe that the humans who commit such despicable acts are definitely not the norm.     So what are the differences between humans and other animals? Humans have the ability to understand right from wrong and to reason. As Zaroff says in the story, reason is what distinguishes humans from other animals. In contrast, animals do not have a sense of morality. But then again, humans kill animals for sport, whereas animals kill other animals only when hungry. This animalistic behavior in humans is the exception, not the rule. On the whole, I believe human beings are civilized.

50 POINTS!! In at least one hundred words, discuss how many of the same themes in Gordimer’s “1959: What is Apartheid?” are expr
natali 33 [55]

here you are hopefully this helps good luck : )

living in fear creates a prison of one’s own making, Avoiding and withdrawing from what we fear, and to live happily ever after.

In Nadine Gordimer´s "1959: what is Apartheid?"  she quotes "... If you want to know how Africans-black men and women-live in south African, you will get in return for your curiosity an exposition of apartheid in action, for in all of a black man´s life, all his life, rejection by the white man has the last word.

In Athol Fugard´s "Master Harold...and the boys" Hally, one of the characters said "the truth? I seem to be the only one around here who is prepared to face it . We´ve  had the pretty dream, it is time now to wake up and have a good long look at the way things really are".

In both works we can see the level of discrimination and inequality of the Apartheid in South Africa until the 1990´s during Nelson Mandela´s government.
