1. a and c...there is no gambling done in the story. They are having a contest, and at a point in the story each of the main characters are each other's prey.
2 and 3 are both examples of characterization. The purpose of having these details in the story is to tell you about the characters.
4. Rainsford is your protagonist as he is the main character or hero of the story.
5. Foreshadowing - it hints at the problems Rainsford will face when he lands on Ship Trap Island.
6. A is right because of the answer to #5. B doesn't work because even though he can't see the island, neither can Whitney so his eyesight isn't actually in question. Whitney is not the main character so C is also wrong.
7. Rainford...same reason as #4.
8. All of the above. Rainsford and General Zaroff battle each other. Rainsford battles the elements while he tries to outsmart Zaroff. Rainsford has to make a difficult choice in order to save himself.
9. None of the above...the ironic part of their conversation is that Zaroff sees himself as civilized and yet he condones hunting people which is far from civilized.
10. Irony. Rainsford said that he would never hunt humans and at the end he ends up killing General Zaroff.
