Plot Overview

On a yacht bound for Rio de Janeiro, a passenger named Whitney points out Ship-Trap Island in the distance, a place that sailors dread and avoid. He and his friend Rainsford are big-game hunters bound for a hunting trip in the Amazon River basin. As the yacht sails through the darkness, the two men discuss whether their prey actually feels fear. Rainsford believes that the world consists only of predators and prey, although Whitney is not as certain. Noticing the jitteriness of the crew, Whitney wants to sail past the mysterious island as soon as possible. He theorizes that sailors can sense danger and that evil emanates in waves like light and sound.

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

D. Just as the picnic was starting, the rain began to pour, and the girls were getting very wet.

Explanation:

The answer that best shows character versus nature is "Just as the picnic was starting, the rain began to pour, and the girls were getting very wet."

In Character vs. Nature conflict, what occurs is a resistance or opposition that a character faces from a natural force or element. Most times, the opposing nature overwhelms the character in such a way that the character cannot control.

From the selected option, it can be seen that the girls were opposed by the rain that started pouring just at the time they started the picnic. "The girls" are the characters and "the rain" is the opposing nature.
