stellarik [79]

Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game." "Life is for the strong, to be lived by the strong, and, if needs be, taken by the strong. The weak of the world were put here to give the strong pleasure. I am strong. Why should I not use my gift? If I wish to hunt, why should I not? I hunt the scu m of the earth—sailors from tramp ships—lascars, blacks, Chinese, whites, mongrels—a thoroughbred horse or hound is worth more than a score of them." "But they are men," said Rainsford hotly. This excerpt shows that unlike Zaroff, Rainsford has still retained his sense of fairness. humanity. humor. entitlement.

Answer:

This excerpt shows that unlike Zaroff, Rainsford has retained his sense of HUMANITY.

Explanation:

From the excerpt, Zaroff is talking about human beings and comparing them to thoroughbred horses and calling them despicable names, vowing that he would kill as much as he can because he is strong but they are weak.

In contrast, Rainsford counters him in an angry manner by reminding him that they are still human beings which shows that Rainsford still retains his humanity.
