Answer:
Ive got no idea kinda confusing wdym smaller?
Explanation:
Answer:
Killing should never really be considered to be justified whether in a work of fiction or not; however, Rainsford was in a position of kill or be killed. The whole thing is a case of kill or be killed, essentially self defense. I guess it depends on how you view that type of thing, but in my opinion, if Rainsford had not killed Zaroff, then he would have undoubtedly died. Therefore, yes I believe he was justified in his decision.
As with all interpretive questions, your answer is based upon your own reading of the story and how you analyze the plot and characters. Rainsford had escaped Zaroff, and won the game. There was no reason to return to the masion and kill Zaroff except to exact revenge. Consider that Rainsford himself is a hunter, used to being in power. Although he had never considered doing something as inhumane as Zaroff in hunting humans, his choice to kill Zaroff reveals his need to be in control. In this case, his killing of Zaroff isn't about justice, but about revenge.
On the other hand, there is nothing to suggest Zaroff would have quit hunting humans. He was a static character, who didn't change even when he "lost" the hunt of Rainsford. In this reading, the audience can interpret that Rainsford is doing his part for mankind by eliminating the threat of the murderer Zaroff. After all, on this island, there is no justice system by which to prosecute him.
You will need to choose the answer that best supports your understanding of the characters.
A question that you could ask the author or a character is:
Author: How did you feel when you were writing this story? How did you get the idea of the plot and characters?
Character: When you were in the story, how did you feel about what you went through?
These are just my ideas :)
Answer:
He was happy for being small sized.
Explanation:
The narrator of "Drummer Man" is small sized. Based on the excerpt we can infer that he was not much happy with his small size. It was only one of two times when he liked being small sized.
His regiment had to retreat from a war front, but their Captain was wounded and left between the lines. Someone had to go there and drag Captain back to safe place. It was not easy for other soldiers to do it owing to their large size. The narrator because of being small in size did the job with not much difficulty. So he was happy for his small size.
