"Sparkling in the sunlight, Marcus looked at his new car". This is wrong. The correct version is: "The car's sparkling in the sunlight, Marcus looked at his new car".What has been bold typed stands for the subject of the present participle, <em>sparkling</em>. This subject is realised by the genitive case and it is a different subject from the main sentence / clause. What sparks is the car not Marcus. " With a grin of appreciation, the car looked almost brand new." wrong. The correct version is: " Marcus , with a grin of appreciation on his face, noticed the car ; the car looked almost brand new." The new version- elements in bold type - has turned into an idependent sentence / clause. Marcus is the one that wears a smile at noticing his brand new car. The semi colon stands for "since". "Grabbing the keys, the car was ready for a road trip." This is wrong. The right version is " Marcus' grabbing the keys ; the car was ready for a road trip". The subject of the present participle , <em>grabbing , </em>has to be provided since it is Marcus that grabs the key ,not the car. The semi-colon claims importance for it stands for <em>because.</em>
Answer:
The correct option is A) Runs
Rainsford runs after he discovers that the "mancatcher" failed.
Explanation:
He had been on the run from General Zaroff a hunter per excellence who was very great at spotting difficult trails. A bored hunter who had pretty much exhausted his excitement with hunting animals had turned to hunt men. His excuse? animals only had instinct...men had reason and were much more challenging to hunt.
In the story, he challenges and coerces Rainsford into a hunting game where he must either escape or be killed. The General would have lost if by midnight the third day he had not killed or hunted down Rainsford.
Rainsford, on the other hand, was also a great hunter was doing all he could to stay alive. In the sentence above, he had set several traps. The one referenced above is called "Mancatcher". It was meant for the general but failed to get him. It, however, cut down Ivan - one of the General's most valuable assets. Upon discovery that the "mancatcher" missed the general Rainsford jumped down from the tree and ran into the forest.
