B. tortured by Ivan

Explanation:

In the short story “The Most Dangerous Game”, General Zaroff organizes a hunting game in which he hunts people that came into his Ship-Trap.

When Sanger Rainsford falls into the trap and is forced to participate in the game, he asks what happens if he refuses. General tells him that he gives the option, but that consequences would be to be turned over to Ivan, a Russian who was working for Czar and punishing criminals. This means Ivan would torture anyone who refuses to participate.

General said Ivan has “his own ideas of sport”, meaning he finds cruelty and punishing to be fun, and enjoys them. Because of the inevitability of pain and suffering, people always chose the game, hoping they will have more chance of freedom and survival.

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.
