This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is a follows:
Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game."
The dining room to which Ivan conducted him was in many ways remarkable. There was a medieval magnificence about it; it suggested a baronial hall of feudal times with its oaken panels, its high ceiling, its vast refectory table where twoscore men could sit down to eat. About the hall were mounted heads of many animals—lions, tigers, elephants, moose, bears; larger or more perfect specimens Rainsford had never seen. At the great table the general was sitting, alone.
The narrative point of view in this excerpt allows the reader
to experience
A. Rainsford's feelings as he enters the room.
B. Rainsford's feelings about his host.
C. Rainsford's impression of the dining room.
D. Rainsford's impression of the island.
Answer:
The narrative point of view in this excerpt allows the reader to experience:
C. Rainsford's impression of the dining room.
Explanation:
Notice that the story is narrated from a third-person perspective. In this particular excerpt, the narrator is not at all focused on feelings. We do not know how the character, Rainsford, feels about the people or the place. What is being described is what he sees, which is a magnificent and rich dining room. There is a brief mention as to Rainsford never having seen such perfect mounted heads before, but that is all. The focus of the excerpt is on describing the dining room and how impressive it is.
"The Most Dangerous Game" is a short story by author Richard Connell. The hunter Rainsford ends up being hunted by General Zaroff when he accidentally lands in Zaroff's island.
