Question

Which sentence from “The Most Dangerous Game” suggests Person vs. Environment conflict?

Answer 1

Answer:

I guess the answer is option 4 and it shows the conflict between nature and man

Explanation:

In Richard Connell's "The Most Dangerous Game", the story revolves around the protagonist Sanger Rainsford, a famed hunter. After he was stranded in an island owned by Colonel Zaroff, he became the hunted/ prey, thus the reversal of roles. This led to his conflicts in trying to keep himself safe from the barbaric hands of the Colonel who was adamant on killing him for sport.

Conflicts in a story is when one attribute is in opposition against another factor, leading to a difference in opinion and fighting between the two sides.

The case of man versus nature conflict can be seen/ found in the sentence "What perils that tangle of trees and underbrush might hold for him did not concern Rainsford just then."

This sentence is after Rainsford escaped to the forest, eluding the Colonel. He no longer cares what the environment will do to him as long as he is safe from the guns and hands of the Colonel.
