Question 2 • CMS 2025-2026 English I CREDIT RECOVERY
Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game." The dining room to which Ivan conducted him was in many ways remarkable. There was a medieval magnificence about it; it suggested a baronial hall of feudal times with its oaken panels, its high ceiling, its vast refectory table where twoscore men could sit down to eat. About the hall were mounted heads of many animals—lions, tigers, elephants, moose, bears; larger or more perfect specimens Rainsford had never seen. At the great table the general was sitting, alone. The narrative point of view in this excerpt allows the reader to experience
Answer
A
Rainsford’s feelings about his host.
B
Rainsford’s impression of the island.
C
Rainsford’s feelings as he enters the room.
D
Rainsford’s impression of the dining room.
Explanation
The description focuses on what the dining room looks like: its medieval style, oak panels, large table, and mounted animal heads. The detail that Rainsford had never seen larger or more perfect specimens shows the room is being presented through his observations. The passage does not describe his feelings about entering, his host, or the island as a whole.
