Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game."
Bleak darkness was blacking out the sea and jungle when
Rainsford sighted the lights. He came upon them as he
turned a crook in the coast line, and his first thought was that
he had come upon a village, for there were many lights. But
as he forged along he saw to his great astonishment that all
the lights were in one enormous building-a lofty structure
with pointed towers plunging upward into the gloom. His
eyes made out the shadowy outlines of a palatial chateau; it
was set on a high bluff, and on three sides of it cliffs dived
down to where the sea licked greedy lips in the shadows.
"Mirage," thought Rainsford. But it was no mirage, he found,
when he opened the tall spiked iron gate. The stone steps
were real enough; the massive door with a leering gargoyle
for a knocker was real enough; yet above it all hung an air of
unreality
irony
imagery
foreshadowing

Usually, when people talk about "rocky” relationships, it’s with a frown, but mine has enriched my life. i became fascinated with rocks when i was really young, and throughout my childhood you could usually find me with my pockets bulging from whatever stony treasures i’d scavenged that day. when my science teacher taught us a unit on geology, i realized that my fascination could become an exciting career that could also me make good money. obtaining an internship to work on the geological exhibit at the museum is an important step on my road to being a geologist. the best description of the writer’s point of view is that the person is eager to make a lot of money in a museum internship. insistent that geology should be taught as part of every science course. hopeful to be able to further the goal of eventually becoming a geologist. concerned that people do not generally relate well to the study of geology.
