Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game,” by Richard Connell. 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. Which details from the excerpt help the reader to visualize the general’s mansion? phrases such as “crook in the coast line” and “a village” phrases such as “lofty structure,” “pointed towers,” and “palatial chateau” phrases such as “first thought,” “great astonishment,” and “into the gloom” phrases such as “dived down,” “sea licked,” and “greedy lips”
