Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game,” by Richard Connell.

His foot touched the protruding bough that was the trigger. Even as he touched it, the general sensed his danger and leaped back with the agility of an ape. But he was not quite quick enough; the dead tree, delicately adjusted to rest on the cut living one, crashed down and struck the general a glancing blow on the shoulder as it fell; but for his alertness, he must have been smashed beneath it. He staggered, but he did not fall; nor did he drop his revolver. He stood there, rubbing his injured shoulder, and Rainsford, with fear again gripping his heart, heard the general's mocking laugh ring through the jungle.

Which analysis best explains the effect of adding the female character in the film adaptation of the scene?

She advances the plot. Having her run through the jungle moves the events of the story along.
She serves a practical function. Using her bracelet to create the trap makes it more realistic to the audience.
She raises the stakes. Giving the audience someone else to care about increases the suspense level.
She makes the film prettier. Having a beautiful female character is mostly decorative, creating a nice visual.

Answer 1

Answer: She raises the stakes, giving the audience someone else to care about increases the suspense level.

At fifteen, he was defeating much older runners. Unable to afford to buy shoes, he ran barefooted, and became known as the Barefooted Runner. Read more about him in "Heroes of the People".

Explanation:

We must capitalize the first word of each new sentence after a period. Proper names such as people's names or names of countries must also be capitalized.Whenever we finish a complete thought and start a new sentence, we must use a period.The use of commas unfolds into different rules. For instance, when we add an appositive to a sentence, that is, a word or phrase that explains another word, we place it between commas. Commas are also used to separate items in a list, even if each item is an entire clause. Commas also separate introductory phrases from the rest of the sentence.

what are the themes of the story the white knight?​

Answers

Answer:

The theme of the story "The White Knight"

The story teaches and makes us ponder on ‘self awareness’, whether actions are more important than appearance. The white knight by appearance that represent champion of virtue, honour, and justice by the society and himself go in search of black knight to slay it since that is what the white knight is expected to do. However, in the process, the white knight without realizing commits the deeds of black knight turning himself into black knight.

The story teaches us that appearance does not matter. It is self-awareness and good actions that makes one a true White Knight. One doesn't have to travel and be in high post to do good deeds, good actions start when we understand and change oneself and start making small positive differences in our own small ways.

The main idea of the story is not really about the knight doing harm to the forest and turning himself into being evil. The story aims to impart wisdom or self-discovery of who the White Knight really is.

While Lancelot was the White Knight, white knight has been used to name anyone who comes to the defense or rescue of someone since the early 1600s. It can also mean a “champion” more generally.

Dr. Reynolds' priority in his life is:

Answer:

becoming famous.

Explanation:

In Tony Hillerman’s novel, Chester Reynolds has a doctorate in anthropology; his primary academic field is archaeology. As a specialist in ancient Native American culture, he is dedicated to promoting the importance of Folsom, a culture that he believes originated much earlier than other scholars have yet determined and then maintained a continuous presence in the US Southwest.

Unfortunately, he is so obsessed with proving this idea that he completely loses his perspective. Reynolds will stop at nothing to gain recognition for his expertise in this area. Among his transgressions are placing artifacts obtained elsewhere in the sites that his people are digging—a practice called “seeding”—so that the archaeologists who find them will believe his theory. Even worse, he kills people who stand in his way.

Studying smart is really simple thing to do. It helps boost your confidence, competence, and self-esteem, as well as reduce your anxiety about tests and deadlines. Such tactics you could use is studying in short chunks. This will allow you your brain process information much better, than obtaining lots of information in long sessions. Another method could be writing flash cards. This will help Your brain store the information better since you have written it down. You could also set study goals by tick them off once you complete them, or test yourself to see where you are at and what you might need to focus on. Lastly, active recall. This is known to be one of the best methods, by reading your flash cards and summaries out loud. This will help you retain the information in your long term memory. Ergo, by developing these effective study skills, it will give you the opportunity to cut down on the numbers of hours you spend while studying, which will leave you with more free time.

To complete the gap, we make use of a verb that illustrates an event that is yet to happen.

To do this, we have:

Many people who chose to dwell on those types of mistakes, let those actions define themselves. These types of actions include choosing the wrong friends, drinking alcohol, doing drugs, etc. We must not let these actions define who we are, but rather we must define what those action are, and get past them.
