At the beginning of the hunt, the author explains Rainsford’s situation as being “in a picture with a frame of water, and his operations clearly must take place within that frame” (8). How does this metaphor turn out not to be true?


Story is “The Most Dangerous Game”

Answer:

Explanation:

The answer is asking us to say that the metaphor is not true.

What if you think it is true? Rainsford is on an island. He must control the situation without stepping off the island. I think it is perfectly apt way of  describing in simple terms, what the  object is.

These two must engage in a battle where the space is very limited. Is that not true?

Answer: I suppose the answer is; He swims around in the water to go into Zarloff's house and ambushes him there. But the metaphor is talking about the setting, not the method of resolution

Read this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer."


The disease was first detected in England in 1986, though some scientists think the very first cases started at least ten years before. Cows usually eat only grass and other plants, but farmers had been feeding them a meat and bone mixture that made the cows plumper. But somehow, at least one batch of the mixture had become contaminated with what was then an unknown killer: a prion.


By 1993, British farmers were reporting up to one thousand new cases of BSE a week. Governments all around the world reacted by increasing testing for the disease and not allowing any cows to be eaten if they were at risk of having the disease. As sheep can also get a prion disease called scrapie, they were tested as well. Farmers were angry that they were losing their livestock, and nobody knew how to protect cows and people from the disease.


Consumers were also in a panic when they learned about BSE, and for a very good reason: prions are infectious. If you eat a prion from a "mad cow” or sheep, you are at risk for developing a human version of BSE. The public felt betrayed that their governments had underreacted to the problem or covered it up.


Eventually, in 1997, governments began to ban farmers from feeding their livestock high-risk meat and bone mixtures. With that ban, the epidemic quickly peaked, and by 2010 had largely disappeared. Over the years, half a million cows and two hundred people had been killed by prions.


In the end, the BSE epidemic was a watershed moment, or turning point, in public health. Citizens were enraged at their governments for having kept prions a secret. Governments, who had lost the public trust, struggled to find the best way to communicate health risks without creating unnecessary panic.


How does the author's use of chronology help support the idea that the BSE epidemic was a watershed moment, or turning point, in government use of law to support public health?


A.The author lays out a timeline to show how scientific discoveries made governments less likely to make laws for public health.

B.The author makes it clear that prions were always known to be dangerous and that scientists discovered them to be the cause of mad cow disease.

C.The author discusses how the mad cow disease epidemic ended only about twenty-five years after it first became a problem.

D.The author shows how frustrated people were that nothing was done about a disease until over ten years after it was discovered.

On her walk toward the boutique, Sara frantically kept counting the money in her wallet. This should be enough to purchase a gown for prom night, she thought anxiously. Tucking her money safely in her bag, Sara walked towards a renowned boutique. She nervously entered the boutique and navigated her way through the crowd of enthusiastic high school students. After an hour of browsing, Sara finally spotted a pink colored prom gown with pearl embellishments on it. Sara instantly fell in love with the gown and decided to buy it for the prom. She asked the sales girl at the boutique for the price of the gown, and much to Sara's dismay, she realized that she wouldn't be able to buy it. Disappointed and miserable, Sara walked back home. She thought to herself, I wish I had managed to save up more! Sara kept sulking throughout the day. When Sara's mother learned the reason behind Sara's foul mood, she came up with the brilliant idea of recycling Sara's old blue gown. The next day she bought various beads, pearls, and sequins to embellish her old gown. Although Sara was unsure, she helped her mom recycle her old gown. During the process, Sara realized that she would be wearing the most beautiful outfit to her prom, as it was made with her mother's love and hard work.

Read the excerpt from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The large handsome face of Dr. Jekyll grew pale to the very lips, and there came a blackness about his eyes. "I do not care to hear more," said he. "This is a matter I thought we had agreed to drop. " "What I heard was abominable," said Utterson. "It can make no change. You do not understand my position," returned the doctor, with a certain incoherency of manner. "I am painfully situated, Utterson; my position is a very strange—a very strange one. It is one of those affairs that cannot be mended by talking. " The direct characterization of Dr. Jekyll implies that he is upset by Utterson’s persistence. Resigned to discussing the will. Offended by Utterson’s disrespect. Bored by having the same old argument.
