Read the passage from "by the waters of babylon.” now i tell what is very strong magic. i woke in the midst of the night. when i woke, the fire had gone out and i was cold. it seemed to me that all around me there were whisperings and voices. i closed my eyes to shut them out. some will say that i slept again, but i do not think that i slept. i could feel the spirits drawing my spirit out of my body as a fish is drawn on a line. why should i lie about it? i am a priest and the son of a priest. if there are spirits, as they say, in the small dead places near us, what spirits must there not be in that great place of the gods? and would not they wish to speak? after such long years? i know that i felt myself drawn as a fish is drawn on a line. i had stepped out of my body—i could see my body asleep in front of the cold fire, but it was not i. i was drawn to look out upon the city of the gods. how does the narrator respond to the conflict in this passage?

Read the excerpt from "the most dangerous game." again rainsford lifted the heavy knocker, and let it fall. the door opened then, opened as suddenly as if it were on a spring, and rainsford stood blinking in the river of glaring gold light that poured out. the first thing rainsford's eyes discerned was the largest man rainsford had ever seen—a gigantic creature, solidly made and black bearded to the waist. in his hand the man held a long-barreled revolver, and he was pointing it straight at rainsford's heart. the details of this excerpt show that rainsford sees ivan as a(n) individual.
