Read the excerpt from "the most dangerous game,” by richard connell. when [rainsford] opened his eyes he knew from the position of the sun that it was late in the afternoon. sleep had given him new vigor; a sharp hunger was picking at him. he looked about him, almost cheerfully. "where there are pistol shots, there are men. where there are men, there is food," he thought. but what kind of men, he wondered, in so forbidding a place? an unbroken front of snarled and ragged jungle fringed the shore. he saw no sign of a trail through the closely knit web of weeds and trees; it was easier to go along the shore, and rainsford floundered along by the water. based on the evidence provided in the excerpt, rainsford most likely will go fishing along the shore. search for the island’s inhabitants. build a camp in the jungle. try to swim to a neighboring island.
