!!PLEASE I NEED HELP ASAP!! Describe each of Rainsford's traps.

English
1 answer:
Pepsi [2]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1) Rainsford moves in a path intended to confuse Zaroff. He winds around and doubles back, walking (running) in loops. This attempt to lose Zaroff is unsuccessful.  

2) Rainsford's first true trap is what was called a Malay mancatcher. He made the trap by balancing a dead tree upon a cut living tree. One of the boughs is then set as a trigger for the trap, which when set off would cause the dead tree to fall.  

3) There was also the Burmese tiger pit. This trap was created by digging a hole in the Death Swamp and filling it with stakes, which were then hidden by woven grass. One of Zaroff's dogs is killed in this trap.  

4) Rainsford's final trap was a trick he'd been taught in Uganda. He fastened a knife to the end of a young tree (the youth of the tree would have made it pliable).

Manipulating syntax allows authors to a) avoid using punctuation b) challenge readers to work hard c) create mood and suspense d
aalyn [17]

Manipulating syntax allows authors to use it in numerous ways to convey different meaning and provoke certain responses. This is why I believe that syntax allow the authors to create mood and suspense. It is true that syntax does not concern itself with the placement of punctuation but I don’t think is a reason.


<span>Answer: C) Create mood and Suspense.</span>
