Read this sentence from "the most dangerous game" and answer the question. 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. what can be best inferred by the narrator’s description of the in the passage above?
1. the chateau is situated in a remote area.
2. the sea had claimed the lives of countless sailors.
3. the chateau belonged to a rich general.
4.the chateau was haunted.

The best answer seems to be the first one: The chateau is situated in a remote area.

According to the description, the chateau is located in an area difficult to access. It's at the top of a bluff - bluff is a steep cliff or bank by the sea or a river - and three sides of the bluff sound impenetrable, the walls reaching the sea in an abrupt descent.

Even though the chateau is described as palatial, and probably belongs or used to belong to a rich person, from this description alone it cannot be inferred that it was a general who owned it.

in a place once known as north america, now known as panem, is a very rich city surrounded by twelve districts. every year because this very rich city, known as the capitol, is so rich and likes to think they control all the districts - which they do - there is something known as the hunger games! this is where two children, one boy and one girl from each district from the ages of twelve to eighteen, have to leave their families and compete in the hunger games, a live event that is aired on tv's all over panem. when katniss everdeen, aged sixteen from district 12, has to volunteer to take the place of her twelve-year-old sister prim after prim's name is called forth to become the 23rd member to compete in the 74th hunger games, she promises to prim that she will win! katniss doesn't believe she's coming out alive - but she's not going down without a fight.

because district 12 is so poor, katniss has been close to death many times from starvation but she's made it through it. but this is a different kind of close to death; this katniss doesn't know if she can survive.

she doesn't want to hurt, or kill anyone but when it comes down to it katniss' instinct is to survive. but when she starts to have confusing feelings about the boy from her district who is also her fellow contender, things get worse, and then she teams up with the girl from district 11 and only one person can survive. but who will it be? will her feelings get the better of her? will she let someone else win so they don't have to die? if katniss is going to win she's going to have to be brutal. she's going to have to kill!
