Answer:
Richard Connell used short terse sentences to give a feeling of suspense, making the readers remain focused on the story. Without revealing much, he also ensures that the readers remain focused on the story, hanging by the thread in anticipation of what is to happen. And the projection of enmity, friction between the two hunters, and their need to succeed give the full sense of suspense.
Explanation:
Suspense is the state of feeling uncertain, anxious yet excited over what will happen in the future. This mental feeling helps authors navigate through the story by giving the readers a sense of excitement on what is to happen yet seems uncertain and even at times scared over what will be the outcome.
In Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game", the feeling of suspense begins right after Sanger Rainsford got into <em>"Ship Trap Island"</em>. As Whitney puts it,<em> "Sailors have a curious dread of the place"</em> which forebodes an eerie feeling over what is really happening on that island. And then comes the discovery of the "twenty-two" empty cartridge, the print of hunting shoes, the pistol shots he heard, and the screaming sound all provides a suspenseful atmosphere.
Then, when he met with Colonel Zaroff and the game was decided, another suspense begins. Sanger's need to stay safe and avoid detection for three days from the clutches of Colonel Zaroff and his hunting party, the will to kill each other-one to get his freedom and the other to enjoy a game of hunting, all add to the suspense. And throughout all these, the plot-line progresses in succession, without giving away much while at the same time, the short, terse sentences giving us a clue on what is to be expected and how they will be used between the two men pitted against each other.
The author Anita Desai had a lot of changes in pace during Games at twilight. Some of the changes of pacing are:
1. The kids are about to play hide and seek and they are excited and the pace of the story is fast. But as soon as Ravi hides the pace is slow and the story tends to get contemplative and it slowly connects to the thoughts and Ravi's memories.
2. One of the changes in pace that is most exciting is when Ravi finaly decides to finish the game by going to the post and say Den!. By the time he says that, the other kids cannot recognize him. A lot of time has passed and now the kids don't even recognize him. It is such an exciting change of pace and time.
The reader may interpret the story in different ways due to the fact that the perspective of Ravi is in a different pace of the other kids perspective.
Some of the examples of this change of pace are:
- <span>It took them a minute to grasp what he was saying, even who he was.
</span>- Ravi had never cared to enter such a dark and depressing mortuary of defunct household goods seething with such unspeakable and alarming animal life but, <span> Ravi suddenly slipped off the flowerpot and through the crack and was gone.
</span>- <span>for minutes, hours, his legs began to tremble with the effort, the inaction. By now he could see enough in the dark to make out the large solid shapes of old wardrobes, broken buckets, and bedsteads piled on top of each other around him. He recognized an old bathtub
</span>- <span>It grew darker in the shed as the light at the door grew softer, fuzzier, turned to a kind of crumbling yellow pollen that turned to yellow fur, blue fur, gray fur. Evening. Twilight.
</span>- It took them a minute to grasp what he was saying, even who he was. They had quite forgotten him.

Yes, there is a difference, in most instances where you want to say you have visited somewhere, you say you have been to that place:
"I've been to London."
"I've been to the cinema."
<span>"I've just been to the toilet." </span>
<span>In these cases you are using been as the other past participle of go, and you have to use to as the preposition. </span>
However, if you are using been as the past participle, and want to indicate a state, or for how long you were somewhere, you can use been in.
<span>All the best,</span>
She shows how her name is spoken in a strange way at school, among classmates, as if it hurt to pronounce it, however among her Spanish speaking community, her name was soft and seemed to be something precious, like silver . That's because, in the Latin community, her name is natural, inherent, as something accepted that is part of that. At school, in the midst of so many American children's names, her name suffered a certain rejection, as if that name did not belong there.
Her name is common among Latin communities, which shows the roots that formed it, in addition to making a connection between Esperanza's willingness to change her reality and achieve better living standards than her community offers. This feeling is very common in Latin communities and countries, which provides a strong link between her cultural and racial values, in addition to being a very strong reference to the hopes she has in the future and the hopes that her great-grandmother had in the past.
