Read this excerpt from Richard Connell’s “The Most Dangerous Game.” Which two emotions does the story’s setting inspire in the r

eader? "Off there to the right—somewhere—is a large island," said Whitney." It's rather a mystery—" "What island is it?" Rainsford asked. "The old charts call it ‘Ship-Trap Island,’” Whitney replied." A suggestive name, isn't it? Sailors have a curious dread of the place. I don't know why. Some superstition—" "Can't see it," remarked Rainsford, trying to peer through the dank tropical night that was palpable as it pressed its thick warm blackness in upon the yacht. "You've good eyes," said Whitney, with a laugh," and I've seen you pick off a moose moving in the brown fall bush at four hundred yards, but even you can't see four miles or so through a moonless Caribbean night." "Nor four yards," admitted Rainsford. "Ugh! It's like moist black velvet." "It will be light enough in Rio," promised Whitney. "We should make it in a few days. I hope the jaguar guns have come from Purdey's. We should have some good hunting up the Amazon. Great sport, hunting."

Answer:

fear and anxiety

Explanation:

hi! it seems like these people are looking for somewhere as well as seem a little lost. it is also nighttime which makes most people afraid because they are afraid of the unknown. i definitly would not say happy because nothing in their tone gives that indication and i would not say angry because they seem pretty civil with each other. that leaves fear and anxiety which i think seem like two emotions anyone would feel in their situation!

JulsSmile [24]
This statement is not logical, because there can still be other farmers, who are not so generous. It's Illogical,  although I would rather call it induction:generalisation from a small sample to a bigger sample.
