Answer and Explanation:

This question is about the short story "The Most Dangerous Game," by Richard Connell (1893-1949), an American writer and journalist. In the story, the main characters are Rainsford and General Zaroff, two very skilled hunters. Rainsford falls from a yacht and ends up on Zaroff's island, where he is hunted by the general.

The setting changes after Rainsford sees lights in the distance. What is the new setting?

After falling from the yacht and swimming to the island, Rainsford walks for a while. At first, all he can see are rocks and a dense jungle. After some time, he sees lights in the distance. The setting changes, the new setting being Zaroff's mansion.

What details are provided about the it?

The narrator describes the place as being incredibly large - so large that Rainsford thinks it is a village at first. Word choice conveys the grandiosity of the house: "enormous building", "lofty structure", "pointed towers". The narrator is comparing Zaroff's house to a castle, a palace.

How does Rainsford feel about this place?

The place is so astonishing that Rainsford thinks it is a mirage. Nonetheless, he walks up to it and knocks at the door.

                                                                                       26th July 2020.

Dear Josh,

You would never believe what happened last week in our small county here. Top Hollywood stars raided our town to film a movie blockbuster!

I couldn't believe it. I saw Tom Hanks, Angelina Jolie, Leonardo DI Caprio, and many more stars. The whole town was excited and we could barely hold our excitement. The coffee shop was buzzing, everywhere was absolutely electric.

From rumor going round, it appears that they are filming a science fiction movie. Can you imagine the absolute scenes!!!!!! Of course., I know they would use CGI to change the appearance, but it is a landmark for our town.

I also heard that they were hiring some locals to be a part of some crowd stuff that would just be in the background and look menacing or something. Tom, Jim, and Mike went yesterday to see if they could get a slot.

There were drones, big film making stuff and the likes, lights, action and so on. Man, I wish you were here to witness this, yourself. Well, I got you covered, I'll take some pictures for you.

                                                                                            Yours faithfully,

                                                                                            Rani
