Answer:
"Did not make me condone cold-blooded murder," finished Rainsford stiffly.
"But they are men," said Rainsford hotly.
Explanation:
These sentences were said by Rainsford when he found out that Zaroff took pleasure in killing men for fun. Zaroff believes that this is just a different type of hunting, and that men are the most interesting prey. However, Rainsford argues that men are not meant to be killed. In the first sentence, he refers to this as "cold-blooded murder," while in the second sentence he argues that they are men, and therefore, should not be hunted. The fact that he condemns this action shows that he was also not justified in killing Zaroff.

A) "To him, <u>your celebration is a sham</u>; <u>your boasted liberty, an unholy license</u>; <u>your national greatness, swelling vanity</u>." This sentence is an instance of parallellism. The same pattern is repeated- look at the underlined words-. Subject + to be + complement. However, this pattern is used in "your celebration is a sham". In the other two structures the verb to be has been omitted and a comma has been used,instead. " your boasted liberty, (is) an unholy license; your national greatness, (is) swelling vanity." The verb to be can be taken out since it can be easily retrieved from the context. If it is ellided, it should be replaced by a comma.
