Suspense, thrills, and mystery? “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell is a story with diverse genres and while leave readers thinking deeply about the author.

Rainsford is brought into a twisted game one he makes a bet with the general, in which he is hunted for three days straight and has to survive in order to win. He faces many obstacles, but he manages to survive everything he goes through deliberately. “The Most Dangerous Game” has many conflicts, for example, man versus man, man versus nature, and even to the point a man is versus himself.

In “The Most Dangerous Game”, General Zaroff and Rainsford disagree whether or not hunting human is morality morally correct. General Zaroff, the one who believes that it’s acceptable, has a stronger argument compared to Rainsford. Zaroff tells Rainsford how one night he “asked [himself] why the hunt no longer fascinated [him]” (34). The justification was that “there is no greater bore than perfection” (34). An animal is absolutely no match for such a great hunter like himself. He came to the conclusion that the ideal quarry must have “courage, cunning, and, above all, it must be able to reason” (35); comma, not semi eliminating every creature except for human. To support his argument he also defines

I will be reviewing Edward Abbey’s memoir during his time spent in southern Utah. In his book, Desert Solitaire, Abbey illustrates how the Arches National Monument evolves throughout time and including the time he spends there working as a park ranger and observing the change throughout his adventures. The two thematic concepts I will be incorporating onto his memoir are the urbanization and development lenses. Throughout his memoir, Abbey ties in many thematic concepts to each other, but only addressing to these two lenses will give a better description. Thus both urbanization and development do play a role in the main point Abbey portrays in Desert Solitaire. In the beginning of his memoir, Abbey shares his own opinion, in which he uses to give a very descriptive explanation on why urbanization and development are both hazardous but also carry benefits to places like Arches Mountains. Abbey gets his point down and uses his time in Utah to back up his argument.

“Greed is a bottomless pit that exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction,” (Fromm). The Most Dangerous Game, by Richard Connell, is a short story about a hunter named Sanger Rainsford who is lost on an ex-military general’s island and forced to play his “game.” In this book, the retired military general, named General Zaroff, is growing tired of his favorite sport, hunting. Because of that, he decides to take hunting to the next level by creating his own game to kill the only animals with the ability to reason, humans. Throughout the book, Rainsford faces near-fatal experiences, violence, and inhumane actions caused by this general. Ultimately, the book has two main themes. One is

Yesterday I learned that we need to work as a team to do a kids puzzle. Without any teamwork we could have not done that puzzle any quicker than what we had done it. The trick was we could not talk to each other. We had to use hand motions and have eye contact to ask each other for a piece. I felt very determined in our work but I was aware of what others were doing around me. Then I figured out many different ways to do different activities to be a grayhound. Like being healthy and respectful. Also be responsible and helpful. Think before you do any of your actions was a big thing for me group at least that is what we kept saying. We kept going over helping people around us and being aware of decisions others make and their convictions really.

“The world is made up of two classes—the hunters and the huntees,” (p. 1, 2). At the beginning of “The Most Dangerous Game”, Rainsford and Whitney chat on the deck of the boat. Rainsford believes in the above quote, and he tells this to Whitney with confidence. I would usually not delve into the deeper meaning of this quote, but because of the negative mood portrayed surrounding these words, I knew they must bear deeper meaning. This example occurs to be one of the many times Connell uses the mood to foreshadow what may occur later. In this particular quote, the reader has the ability to conclude that Rainsford will acquire a challenge to his beliefs later on in the story. Indeed, his theory proves to possess an alternative meaning-- one that Rainsford thought impossible. Rainsford succumbs to the antagonist’s horrible game and then kills Zaroff. He eventually becomes a hunter and a huntee, and his theory of the two classes is proves wrong. Connell writes “The Most Dangerous Game” with a dreary mood, which aids the readers in foreshadowing the negative occurrences that will appear as the story develops.

The sun has risen and the game has begun. Rainsford grabs his weapons and run into the forest. He chose a small bush deep into the forest. Zaroff gets up and gets ready to play. He lets Rainsford know he's ready but shooting two shots into the air. Rainsford sat in that bush for five hours.

Last week, my little sister and I were playing together while our big sister was doing the laundry. When Lola and I got bored with the spinning tops, we decided to find another game. Paola, our sister, went down stairs to put some clothes in the washing machine, but she left a laundry basket upstairs. I took a pair of panties and put it on my head like a helmet. Lola did the same because she always copies me. I brought the basket on the top of the stairs, I helped my little sister to sit in and I sat behind her. After I gave a strong push, our sledge went down so fast, we had flew only one second and we were already laying on the floor. At the time, I thought I could die, every parts of my body were hurting. When I heard my

The characters in the story “The most dangerous game” make some very strange statements based on their personal opinion. The statement “The world is made up of two classes The hunters and the huntees” means that some people or either a hunter or a huntee some people can be boring either.

The huntees some people are boring a hunter and just go and follow the flow and become
