Question

At the beginning of “The Most Dangerous Game,” Sanger Rainsford’s argument with Whitney and the pitch black night which they can’t see through, represent two types of conflict. Which are they? Select all that apply. Person vs. Person Person vs. Society Person vs. Environment Person vs. Self

Answer 1

Person vs. Person and Person vs. Society.

Answer 2

The correct answers are A. Person vs. Person and C. Person vs. Environment

Step-by-step explanation:

In a literary work, including short stories like "The Most Dangerous Game" the type of conflict or struggle is defined by the opposing force the main character fights against. This implies in a Person vs. Person conflict the character struggles against another character, in a Person vs. Society the character struggles against society, in a Person vs. Self the character struggles against himself and in a Person vs. Environment the character struggles against nature or his surrounding.

In the case of “The Most Dangerous Game” Sanger Rainsford (a main character) struggles against another character called Whitney which implies a Person vs. Person conflict, but besides this he struggles against the black night that is part of nature or environment and thus, besides a Person vs. Person conflict there is a Person vs. Environment conflict.
