b - In a broken down shack that is well concealed by the dense vegetation.
c - In a dark, dingy castle that legend says is haunted by ghosts of murder victims.
d - In a chateau, a large French house, on the edge of the water."

Answer 1

General Zaroff lives in a chateau, a large French house, on the edge of the water, contrasting with the other less luxurious options provided.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer to the student's question 'Which of the following is true of Zaroff's living conditions?' is d - In a chateau, a large French house, on the edge of the water. General Zaroff, a character from 'The Most Dangerous Game' by Richard Connell, lives in a luxurious mansion that could be described as a chateau. This would contrast starkly against the other options presented: a houseboat, a shack, or a haunted castle.

Answer 2

Zaroff's living conditions are in a chateau, a large French house, on the edge of the water which is option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer to the question “Which of the following is true of Zaroff's living conditions?” is d - In a chateau, a large French house, on the edge of the water. None of the excerpts provided directly mention General Zaroff or a chateau, as they do not come from the story “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell, where General Zaroff is a character. The story details the living conditions of Zaroff as a lavish chateau situated on an island. This location is where he resides and conducts his dangerous game of hunting humans. Zaroff's opulent lifestyle and grand living quarters are starkly contrasting with the life-and-death situation faced by his prey, exemplifying the themes of power and moral ambiguity in Connell's narrative
