The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Richard Connell and Ray Bradbury introduce the reader to experienced hunters who share three common character traits in their short stories. After comparing and contrasting character traits among Rainsford and Zaroff from Connell’s short story “The Most Dangerous Game,” and Eckels from Bradbury’s, “A Sound of Thunder,” one sees that the best hunter of the group is Rainsford. While each character possesses patience, observancy, and the ability to handle pressure, Rainsford uses these traits in the wisest and most proficient manner. Hunters need many different assets, yet patience is one of the most important.

The key to being a successful hunter is being patient. Rainsford demonstrates his patience in many ways during the three days of the most dangerous game. Unlike Rainsford, Eckels shows no patience on his own hunt millions of years prior: “Out of the mist a hundred yards away, came the Tyrannosaurus rex” (Bradbury 84). Rainsford’s patience is the key factor that separates him from Eckels, who becomes frantic during the hunt. Through Ship Trap Island, Zaroff is able to portray his patience as well. Eckels, on the contrary, cannot attain the same sense of imperturbability, because he constantly asks questions: “Eckels flushed. Where’s our Tyrannosaurus?” (Bradbury 84). Zaroff has the ability to slowly guide a ship to provide more participants in the most dangerous game, unlike Eckels, whose prey comes running at him. Eckels simply has no patience, a sharp contrast to both Zaroff and Rainsford. To demonstrate his dedication and commitment, Zaroff says, “So I bought this island, built this house, and here I do my hunting. (Connell 21) Eckels’ lack of patience is unfit for a task such as the most dangerous game. Rainsford’s patience is greater than that of both Zaroff and Eckels. Being patient is a useful trait, but without keen observance, all chances of success are dashed.

How does Black Hawk's rhetoric in this excerpt advance his viewpoint that in order to save their own culture, Indians must defea
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

D: He uses figurative language to convey the idea that white people morally corrupt Native Americans.

Explanation:

In the 1832 surrender speech by Black Hawk, the Indian leader expressed his hatred for the white people who came only to destroy his land and his people. The main idea of his speech was to emphasize the need for the Native Indians to fight against the whites and preserve their lands and traditions.

In the given lines from the speech, Black Hawk uses figurative language to describe the whites. He uses a simile, comparing the whites to <em>"snakes . . . coiled themselves among us like snakes. They poisoned us by their touch."</em> And they have made them <em>"hypocrites and liars, adulterers, lazy drones, all talkers, and no workers."</em> Through this imagery, Black Hawk <u>conveys the idea that white people are morally corrupt and must not be trusted.</u>

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

What is the major difference between a persuasive essay and an argumentative essay?
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is that an argumentative essay does not use emotions.

For instance, "an argumentative essay is based on logic and reasons while a persuasive essay is based on emotions and personal opinions".

Evidently, the statement proves how argumentative essay use logic and reasoning, whereas a persuasive essay uses emotions to prove the point to the reader.

However, all of the other options are correct because both types of essays are trying to make the reader believe a certain point.
