Explanation:
Richard Connell's short story <em>The Most Dangerous Game</em> tells the story of how Sanger Rainsford and a savage hunter Colonel Zaroff had their own perceptions of being a hunter. The story follows the protagonist Sanger in his attempts to try to escape the savagery of the Colonel.
After Rainsford had swum to the shore of Ship-Trap island, he walked and got to the mansion of Colonel Zaroff. There, he was given food and clothing. After they had their dinner, the colonel began telling him of his great hunting grounds, the thrill of hunting an animal that can reason and think. As he kept on going about his island and tried to move on to show off his library, Rainsford requested to be excused. At this, <u>Colonel Zaroff accepted that he has had a long swim so he should get some rest.

Answer:

Explanation:
"Lamb to the Slaughter" (1953) is a short story by by Roald Dahl (1916-1990).
The story is narrated in third person omniscient point of view.
Mary Maloney (Mrs. Patrick) is narrated as six-month pregnant wife. She is waiting for her husband to come home from his job as a local police detective. When he returns, she busies herself in bringing dinner for him, but Mr. Patrick indirectly tells her that he is about to leave her. This sudden discovery shocks her and she kills her husband with a frozen lamb leg. Next she goes to grocery shop, buys some items, informs police about the murder, cooks the lamb's leg (murder weapon) and makes them eat it.
Mary Maloney is over-dependent on her husband. At this stage (six months) of her pregnancy she needs her husband's support the most. In order to keep him happy she does everything even beyond her present condition. Her over-dependency on her husband shocks her the most, because if she had any alternative, she might have coped with this shock (her husband leaving her). Although she acts intelligently by avoiding any suspicion and cooking the murder weapon, but this intelligence is not part of her character. It was temporary and out of necessity to save her born-to-be child from the consequences.
She expressed her anger by taking the most serious action, but again this expression was out of a huge shock and not constant part of her character. Had it been constant part of her character, she would have been mentally ready to listen such a thing from her husband any time in their married life.
Yes, she was isolated but dependency is the most prominent characteristic of her personality. Moreover, before the murder, there seems no such evidence that she was isolated by her husband because in such a case she would have been accepting her husband's action, and this would not have shocked her that much.
The preposition of the sentence would be the word "of" since it relates the subject, the Incas, to the clause, which is "possessions with special knotted cords called quipu."
