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!

Write a four-line stanza of your own that would go well with music. After you write the stanza, answer these questions:
vovangra [49]

I've been meaning to <em>ask you</em>

If that's not too <em>drastical</em>

wonder if it's <em>okay</em>

To pick you up by<em> eight</em>


The rhyme scheme of this poem is AABB. The rhyme in this poem is achieved by the pronounciation and stress put into "ask you"; stressing ASK and then stressing the first syllabe of "drastical" and this way the rhyme on the first two lines is completed. Then for the last two lines the rhyme is achieved and the whole stanza resolved by stressing "okAY" and then "Eight".

Meter:

The stanza's meter is trochaic tetrameter (4 trochees, 8 syllables)

<em>I</em><em>'ve</em> <em>been </em>| <em>meaning</em><em> </em>| <em>to</em> | ask you

if that's | not | too | drastical

wonder | if | it's | okay

To pick | you up | by | eight


This rhyme scheme and meter are most used by rap artist for it's impact and flexibility to create a rhyme. The stressed words are the ones that address the receiver of the message that is a proposition for a meeting or a date. This poem is fitting for the rap music genre, for it's pronounciation  of key words (with a suburban accent) completes the rhyme in the second and third lines ("oKAY" and "DRAStical").
