read the excerpt from "the most dangerous game,” by richard connell. he staggered, but he did not fall; nor did he drop his revolver. he stood there, rubbing his injured shoulder, and rainsford, with fear again gripping his heart, heard the general's mocking laugh ring through the jungle. "rainsford," called the general, "if you are within sound of my voice, as i suppose you are, let me congratulate you. not many men know how to make a malay mancatcher. luckily for me i, too, have hunted in malacca. you are proving interesting, mr. rainsford. i am going now to have my wound dressed; it's only a slight one. but i shall be back. i shall be back." how is the general’s character presented differently in the story than in the film adaptation of this scene?

a. the general displays humor in the story that is lacking in the film.
b. the general is more determined in the story than he is in the film.
c. the general shows fear in the story that he doesn’t show in the film.
d. the general has more hunting skills in the story than he has in the film.
