Which of the following quotes best represents the central conflict in “the most dangerous game? ”a)you’ll find this game worth playing,” the general said enthusiastically. “your brain against mine. your woodcraft against mine. your strength and stamina against mine. outdoor chess! ”b)“he leaped upon the rail and balanced himself there, to get greater elevation; his pipe, striking a rope, was knocked from his mouth. he lunged for it; a short, hoarse cry came from his lips as he realized he had reached too far and had lost his balance. the cry was pinched off short as the blood-warm waters of the caribbean sea dosed over his head.”c)"the best sport in the world," agreed rainsford. "for the hunter," amended whitney. "not for the jaguar." "don't talk rot, whitney," said rainsford. "you're a big-game hunter, not a philosopher. who cares how a jaguar feels? "d)"i wanted the ideal animal to hunt," explained the general. "so i said, `what are the attributes of an ideal quarry? ' and the answer was, of course, `it must have courage, cunning, and, above all, it must be able to reason."'

The correct answer is

"I wanted the ideal animal to hunt," explained the general. "So I said, `What are the attributes of an ideal quarry?' And the answer was, of course, `It must have courage, cunning, and, above all, it must be able to reason."'

I hope this helped! :)

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
