In at least 150 words, describe the author’s use of foreshadowing and suspense in “The Most Dangerous Game.” Use details from the text to support your answer
Answer and Explanation:
"The Most Dangerous Game" is a short story by author Richard Connell. The main character is Rainsford, a hunter who is on a yatch on his way to Rio. Upon arriving in Brazil, Rainsford and his friend Whitney intend to go up to the Amazon Forest, to hunt jaguars.
Foreshadowing starts with their conversation on the boat. Foreshadowing is a technique in which a piece of information is given to the audience that will later on unfold into something more important, even though it seemed trivial in the beginning. During their conversation, a Ship-Trap Island is mentioned, which is where Rainsford will end up on. Whitney also mentions that hunting is a good sport for the hunter, but not for the prey. Rainsford, however, cannot empathize with the animals he kills. He sees himself as superior to those animals. Of course, at this point, he has no idea he will find a man who thinks like that, but about other men.
"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--"
[...]
"The best sport in the world," agreed Rainsford.
"For the hunter," amended Whitney. "Not for the jaguar."
"Don't talk rot, Whitney," said Rainsford. "You're a big-game hunter, not a philosopher. Who cares how a jaguar feels?"
"Perhaps the jaguar does," observed Whitney.
"Bah! They've no understanding."
"Even so, I rather think they understand one thing--fear. The fear of pain and the fear of death."
After falling off the yatch, Rainsford swims to the very Ship-Trap Island his friend just talked about. That is where he meets General Zaroff, a hunter whose prey are other men. Zaroff has grown tired of killing animals. According to him, hunting men is more exciting, since men can reason. That makes them the most dangerous game. Zaroff invites Rainsford to hunt with him, but his proposal is refused. This is where suspense begins to intensify. The audience can anticipate that Rainsford will end up being hunted by Zaroff. Once he becomes the prey, suspense grows intense again. Rainsford is a smart man, but Zaroff has the upper hand. Who will win?
"Thank you, I'm a hunter, not a murderer."
"Dear me," said the general, quite unruffled, "again that unpleasant word. But I think I can show you that your scruples are quite ill founded."
"Yes?"
"Life is for the strong, to be lived by the strong, and, if needs be, taken by the strong. The weak of the world were put here to give the strong pleasure. I am strong. Why should I not use my gift? If I wish to hunt, why should I not? I hunt the sc.um of the earth: sailors from tramp ships--lassars, blacks, Chinese, whites, mongrels--a thoroughbred horse or hound is worth more than a score of them."
"But they are men," said Rainsford hotly.
"Precisely," said the general. "That is why I use them. It gives me pleasure. They can reason, after a fashion. So they are dangerous."
[...]
From another door came Ivan. Under one arm he carried khaki hunting clothes, a haversack of food, a leather sheath containing a long-bladed hunting knife; his right hand rested on a cocked revolver thrust in the crimson sash about his waist.
Rainsford had fought his way through the bush for two hours. "I must keep my nerve. I must keep my nerve," he said through tight teeth.
He had not been entirely clearheaded when the chateau gates snapped shut behind him.

Answer:
Explanation:
Heathcliff
Heathcliff is the main character in the story. He is a young orphan brought to Wuthering Heights by Mr. Earnshaw. A rivalry develops between Mr. Earnshaw's son, Hindley, and Heathcliff because Hindley feels that Mr. Earnshaw loves the adopted orphan more than his own son. Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw develop a close bond as they grow up together. When Catherine chooses to marry Edgar Linton, Heathcliff runs away from home. When he returns after three years, he is a wealthy man who is determined to destroy the Earnshaws and the Lintons. He manipulates events to gain control of both Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange.
He is a devoted, passionate lover who becomes almost inhuman in seeking revenge on all who wronged him. He comes across as bitter, sullen, and depressed through most of the second half of the story.
Hindley
Mr. Earnshaw's son, Hindley, develops a hatred for Heathcliff from the very beginning. He goes to London to attend college and comes back to Wuthering Heights with his wife, Frances, for his father's funeral. When he becomes the master of Wuthering Heights, he moves Heathcliff from the house to the servants' quarters and reduces him to a common farm laborer.
Hindley is jealous by nature and always imposes his superiority on people of lower social rank.
Catherine
Mr. Earnshaw's daughter, Catherine, is sympathetic to Heathcliff. She is his childhood companion, and they fall deeply in love. However, Catherine shocks and hurts Heathcliff when she chooses to marry Edgar Linton to become the "greatest woman in the neighborhood." Her actions lead Heathcliff to disappear for three years and are presumably his chief motive for seeking to destroy both the Linton and Earnshaw families.
Catherine is a free spirit who loves to break rules of conduct to explore the moors; she is headstrong and stubborn and loves Heathcliff passionately, but she ends that romance and turns to safe and dispassionate Edgar Linton.
younger Catherine
The younger Catherine is referred to as Cathy and is Catherine and Edgar Linton's daughter. She is ill-tempered and rude, and she has inherited her mother's good looks. Heathcliff forces her to marry his son, Linton, so that he can become the master of Thrushcross Grange as well. However, Linton dies soon after the marriage, and Cathy falls in love with Hareton.
Edgar
Edgar Linton lives in Thrushcross Grange. He is a gentleman who manages to woo Catherine Earnshaw. Catherine marries Edgar to become the mistress of Thrushcross Grange.
Isabella
Isabella is Edgar Linton's sister. She is weak and sickly. Heathcliff marries her to take revenge on Catherine and mistreats her. She flees to London to escape Heathcliff's torture and gives birth to their son, Linton, there.
Lockwood
Lockwood is the tenant who rents Thrushcross Grange from Heathcliff. He asks Nelly to tell him more about the inhabitants and the history of Wuthering Heights after he has a strange nightmare at the manor. He is a city-bred person who does not fit into the landscape of the moors, and he has rented Thrushcross Grange to recover from the pangs of a broken heart. He is the first narrator of the story.
Nelly
Nelly works as a housekeeper in Wuthering Heights. She is sympathetic to Heathcliff and Catherine and is a witness to all that unfolds at Wuthering Heights and in the lives of Heathcliff and Catherine. Nelly is one of the narrators in Wuthering Heights, and the story she tells Lockwood is colored with her feelings for the characters.
Hareton is the son of Hindley and Frances. He loses his mother a few years after his birth, and his father takes to alcohol. Heathcliff treats Hareton badly after the death of his parents, making him ill-mannered in some of the same ways Heathcliff has been. Hareton is forced to work as a servant at Wuthering Heights and he is denied an education. Eventually, he falls in love with the younger Catherine and plans to marry her.
Linton is the son of Isabella and Heathcliff. Born and raised in London, he is sickly and weak like her. Linton returns to live with his father, Heathcliff, after his mother's death. He never really gets any affection from his father, who uses him to gain control of Thrushcross Grange.

Answer:
The main source of conflict in this passage is:
A.The city council's decision to destroy the forest that Lee loves .
Explanation:
A conflict is a struggle between two opposing forces. In literature, the conflict often takes place between the protagonist and the antagonist, although that is not necessarily a rule. There are different kinds of conflict, such as man vs. man, man vs. society, man vs. nature, etc. In the passage we are analyzing here, the source of conflict is the city council's decision to destroy the forest that Lee loves. That decision causes a reaction that leads Lee to feel antagonized. She and the city council are now in opposite sides, struggling to get their own way. Lee and the city council are the opposing forces in this conflict.

There stood, facing the open window, a comfortable, roomy armchair. Into this she sank, pressed down by a physical exhaustion that haunted her body and seemed to reach into her soul.
She could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver with the new spring life. The delicious breath of rain was in the air. In the street below a peddler was crying his wares. The notes of a distant song which someone was singing reached her faintly, and countless sparrows were twittering in the eaves.
There were patches of blue sky showing here and there through the clouds that had met and piled one above the other in the west facing her window.
She sat with her head thrown back upon the cushion of the chair, quite motionless, except when a sob came up into her throat and shook her, as a child who has cried itself to sleep continues to sob in its dreams.

For how many months at least do you have to wait to be able to dive or swim down in the water after scoliosis surgery?
Answer:
Once a diver returns to full activity after surgery and has no residual symptoms such as numbness, tingling, pain or burning sensations in the legs, the back problem is probably corrected. The diver can return to scuba diving as long as symptoms don't recur with exercise or other activities. Extra precautions after back surgery include: donning equipment after entering the water; limiting dive depths and times; increasing the length of surface intervals; and reducing diving frequency. Limiting exposure to high partial pressures of nitrogen is the best way to avoid decompression illness.
