PART B: Which TWO phrases from the text best support the answers to Part A? A. “‘You’re a big-game hunter, not a philosopher.’” (Paragraph 10) B. “Where there are pistol shots, there are men.” (Paragraph 39)
C. "hunting had ceased to be what you call ‘a sporting proposition.’ It had become too easy. I always got my quarry.’” (Paragraph 94)
D. “‘One does not expect nowadays to find a young man of the educated class, even in America, with such a naïve, and, if I may say so, mid-Victorian point of
view.’” (Paragraph 116)
E. “‘Civilized? And you shoot down men?’” (Paragraph 128)
F. “General Zaroff had an exceedingly good dinner in his great paneled dining hall that evening.” (Paragraph 199)

I have looked this question up to find what Part A is about. What I found is about the central themes in the story, which refer to (1) violence becoming a common thing and, for that reason, not being taken seriously, and (2) humankind's obligation to act with reason instead of acting in an animal-like manner.

With that in mind, we can

The two phrases from the text which best support the answer to Part A are:

C. "hunting had ceased to be what you call 'a sporting proposition.' It had become too easy. I always got my quarry." (Paragraph 94)

E. "Civilized? And you shoot down men?" (Paragraph 128)

Explanation:

"The Most Dangerous Game" is a short story by Richard Connell. The protagonist, Sanger Rainsford, and the antagonist, General Zaroff, are skilled hunters who face each other in a deadly conflict.

Both characters have a distorted view of violence. They both show little or no respect for their preys, their game. However, Rainsford only hunts animals and, since he believes they are beasts incapable of feeling or thinking much, he does not see his ruthlessness as a problem.

Zaroff, on the other hand, hunts men. He too sees his preys as beasts - the men he hunts are men he considers inferior to himself. However, he admits that they have the ability to reason, which is precisely why he hunts them. It makes the chase more difficult, more exciting.

As we can see, violence has become common in the life of both characters. But General Zaroff has gone one step further. Rainsford is still able to act in a civilized manner, respecting his fellow human beings. Option E is a line spoken by him, questioning Zaroff's idea of civilization. On the other hand, option C is a line spoken by Zaroff, which shows that he has given in to his desire for violence.
