Do you know the definition of the word?
I believe the correct answer is <span>Zaroff has no conscience, while Rainsford does have a conscience.
As you can see in the excerpt, Zaroff is not opposed to murdering other people, which he considers to be just a type of hunting. He doesn't value human life at all, and is indifferent towards whether they live or die, which is why his character is different from that of Rainsford's.

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Complete the sentence with an appropriate intensive pronouns.
Diana found the story difficult to believe______________.
A. she
B. itself
C. herself
Answer:
Diana found the story difficult to believe herself.
Explanation:
<u>Intensive pronouns are used to emphasize the nouns they refer to.</u> We need to be careful because intensive pronouns and reflexive pronouns are actually the same - myself, yourself, himself, etc. It is the use in context that differs.
In the sentence we are supposed to complete, we need to choose the appropriate intensive pronoun among the options. <u>Since "she" is a subject pronoun, we can already eliminate it. If we use "itself", we will be emphasizing "story". However, the person who has difficulty believing the story is Diana. She is the one who should be emphasized. Therefore, we can eliminate "itself" and safely choose "herself".</u>
Diana found the story difficult to believe herself.
Answer:
. The boy comprehends that, despite his best efforts, he cannot escape time, and he too will become a part of history.
Explanation:
The boy dislikes the idea that the whole family has been keeping their mementos in the chest. He does not want to feel engaged into looking into the contents. "f...contents of the chest never came quite clear,.....because he didn't want to know."; "....but he hadn't wanted to listen. A thing so old disgusted him...", these words reflect the boy's feelings towards the passage of time , but these seem to be senseless when <em>he</em> gets <em>shocked </em>on coming across <em>his own</em> drawings. He drew them when he was five.
An antagonist wants to defeat the protagonist in whatever conflict there is between them. they are the "villain" in the story.
