Answer 2

Answer:

A. An act of running away

Explanation:

In this excerpt flight means the act of running away. We know that Rainsford was on the ground (since it says "the ground grew softer under his moccasins"). Therefore, it can not be a flight in the air. Since the "flight" carried on for hours and we know he was moving, the best choice is "an act of running away."
