Answer:

"What island is it?" Rainsford asked. - This is the first time Rainsford has  made this journey .

"I've seen you pick off a moose  moving... at four hundred yards." - Rainsford is an excellent hunter.

"Who cares how a jaguar feels? - Rainsford does not sympathize  the animals he kills.

"It will be light in Rio," promised  Whitney - Whitney has been to Rio before.

Explanation:

The short story "The Most Dangerous Game" by Richard Connell tells the story of how a famed and experienced hunter became the victim of a much more dangerous man. The story also delves into the roles of the hunter and the hunted, and how the two roles are twisted in this story.

When Sanger Rainsford asked Whitney where they are, this shows that he is not familiar with the place and is his first time journeying to this place.

Whitney's statement of him having <em>"seen you pick off a moose moving"</em> shows how excellent Rainford is in his hunting skills.

Rainsford's statement of <em>"who cares how a jaguar feels"</em> shows his unsympathetic attitude towards the animals he hunts.

Whitney's prediction of <em>"it will be light in Rio"</em> shows he has been there before.

Write a compare-and-contrast analysis of how culture shapes the heroes in Heart of a Samurai and Black Ships Before Troy.
aliina [53]

Answer:

The culture in "Black Ships Before Troy" caused a hero to be seen as a traitor, while in "Heart of a Samurai" the culture almost prevented a hero from appearing.

Explanation:

"Black Ships Before Troy" presents a people with a culture very based on religion, where they believed that all the events that happened were due to the action of the gods. Good events were because the gods were happy, while bad events were caused by the wrath of the gods. In this case, when a hero tried to stop the horse sent to Troy and ended up dying before completing his mission, he was seen as a traitor who was rebuked by the gods.

In contrast, "Heart of a Samurai" shows how a boy who dreamed of being a samurai was prevented because his family was made up of fishermen and the culture said that young people should follow their parents' tragedy.
