Which line provides evidence that Rainsford’s actions are justified because Zaroff was unlikely to let him go?

Answer:

The answer is indeed letter C. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."

Explanation:

Zaroff and Rainsford are characters in Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game." They are both dexterous hunters who have no empathy for their prey. The one difference between them is that Rainsford hunts animals, while Zaroff hunts men.

Rainsford becomes Zaroff's brand new game. By the end of the story, he has managed to escape the forest and enter Zaroff's house unnoticed. Once Zaroff enters his own bedroom, Rainsford appears. <u>Zaroff had promised to let Rainsford go if he managed to remain alive for three days after the hunt started. However, even though he admits Rainsford has won, he does not intend to let him go. </u>This is what he says:

C. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed."

<u>Zaroff is confident he will kill Rainsford and feed him to his dogs. Rainsford has no choice but fight and kill Zaroff to guarantee his own survival.</u> That is what he does.

brilliants [131]

The argument is <em>that children go to school to learn not to teach their elders ,</em> where teachers can be included. Public schools are subsidised with taxes. Bearing this in mind, we may say that taxpayers send their children to school for them to learn not to teach. This was what the taxpayers did when <em>they themselves </em>were  students . Therefore, t<em>axpayers send their children to school on the premise that, at their age, they needed to learn, not teach </em>is the reasoning of the argument.
