I have looked this question up to find what Part A is about. What I found is about the central themes in the story, which refer to (1) violence becoming a common thing and, for that reason, not being taken seriously, and (2) humankind's obligation to act with reason instead of acting in an animal-like manner.

With that in mind, we can answer:

Answer:

The two phrases from the text which best support the answer to Part A are:

C. "hunting had ceased to be what you call 'a sporting proposition.' It had become too easy. I always got my quarry." (Paragraph 94)

E. "Civilized? And you shoot down men?" (Paragraph 128)

Explanation:

"The Most Dangerous Game" is a short story by Richard Connell. The protagonist, Sanger Rainsford, and the antagonist, General Zaroff, are skilled hunters who face each other in a deadly conflict.

Both characters have a distorted view of violence. They both show little or no respect for their preys, their game. However, Rainsford only hunts animals and, since he believes they are beasts incapable of feeling or thinking much, he does not see his ruthlessness as a problem.

Zaroff, on the other hand, hunts men. He too sees his preys as beasts - the men he hunts are men he considers inferior to himself. However, he admits that they have the ability to reason, which is precisely why he hunts them. It makes the chase more difficult, more exciting.

<u>As we can see, violence has become common in the life of both characters. But General Zaroff has gone one step further. Rainsford is still able to act in a civilized manner, respecting his fellow human beings. Option E is a line spoken by him, questioning Zaroff's idea of civilization. On the other hand, option C is a line spoken by Zaroff, which shows that he has given in to his desire for violence.</u>

Each person, regardless of age or backgrounds, have the right to krump. How should the sentence above be rewritten to correct th
Gnesinka [82]
<span>The correct answer is "Each person, regardless of age or backgrounds, has the right to krump." 'Has' is a third person singular form of the verb 'have.' This means that it will be used in a sentence where the subject is another person (not yourself.) In this case, the subject is "person," which is singular and not yourself. What if the subject of this sentence was "people" instead of person? We would use "have" because the subject is now plural!</span>

Select an interesting Spanish-speaking country and plan a tour. Make use of the Internet for gathering your travel information,

For Argentina:

1. To provide reputable websites with accurate information, you can go to encyclopedia.com, nationalgeographic.com, britannica.com, etc. (don't simply default to Wikipedia, as it's not always a reliable source).

2. You can talk about wanting to visit Argentina due to their unique language. Although the country speaks Spanish, the dialect is rather different. The "ll" sound, instead of being pronounced as "y," is actually pronounced as "sh" or "j." This means that "me llamo" is pronounced as "me sha-mo" instead of "me ya-mo."

3. Since Argentina is a large country with many different landscapes, you can talk about wanting to see such diverse geography. For example, there are huge salt flats in the north, a cosmopolitan city (Buenos Aires) as you go further down, and finally a region called Patagonia, which has incredible hiking views and even glaciers, as you continue going down the country.

4. The tourist attractions are similar to the answers in number 3, because it is possible to go on excursions in the salt flats and the glaciers. Additionally, Buenos Aires itself, as the capital of the country, has several tourist attractions, including soccer games, flea markets, etc.

5. This answer will actually depend on whether or not you know anyone who has been to Argentina. It is not the most popular vacation spot, but is gaining popularity within the tourist industry.

6. Again, this will depend on whether or not you know anyone who has been to Argentina. In general, Argentina gives off a very European impression, although it is in Latin America. The people are very proud of their European descent, as there is much Italian and German ancestry among these people.
