Why does Zaroff think Rainsford is “droll” and “naïve”? (Paragraph 116) A. Zaroff thinks it’s foolish and old-fashioned that Rainsford values human life even after fighting in the war. B. Zaroff thinks it is childish and immature that Rainsford has never tried to kill another human. C. Zaroff judges Rainsford’s American culture because Rainsford feels a religious sense of responsibility. D. Insane Zaroff has been isolated on the island for too long and laughs madly at seeing Rainsford, another civilized man.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:A

Explanation:

I got it right on the test.

Answer 2

Zaroff thinks Rainsford is “droll” and “naïve” as Zaroff thinks it’s foolish and old-fashioned that Rainsford values human life even after fighting in the war.  Thus the correct option is A.

Zaroff is surprised and amused by Rainsford's remark, saying, "You'll find this game worth playing... your opinion of me will fundamentally change... you'll find it droll..." I bet you'll abandon your concepts of decency... I have no qualms about destroying them."

Rainsford's belief in the value of human life, according to Zaroff, is outmoded and naive given the conditions, when killing humans is merely a game.

Therefore, option A is appropriate.

"Yes, she has pity on the poor orphan. But alas! I am subjected to my brother, who embitters my life"; this reveals that Nina is controlling.

"Spinning does not make me deaf"; this shows that Nina feels bitter.

essay on indiscipline in our secondary school​

Answers

Indiscipline can be explained as a lack of control in the behavior of a group of people. No doubt,indiscipline is rampant and the most noticeable thing in secondary schools today.

There are various causes of indiscipline in secondary schools.

One major cause is a lack of training in children. Most children were brought up without any touch of discipline. They have no regard whatsoever for their parents because right from the start,their parents did not instill values and morals that will enable him\her to function, behave and relate in an acceptable manner. And when such children grows up,they become independent and feels that he\she can do anything without anyone disapproval. As a result, they cannot fathom why in secondary school,someone will have to question them on what they feel like doing.

Everyone says it’s the best years of your life

For the lucky ones it is

But others get the raw end of the deal

When they're having a  blast

The other kids grow up to fast

And they don’t know what childhood is

Their parents study with them for their next quiz

While our parents are working

And those unluckier than us...we're there alone

And when they're asking for a new phone

We ask for a small chicken bone

So many people are going on vacation

But we ask ourselves when is our vacation

When do we get a break

When can we be a kid

But when we grow up we know how to work

We know not to make the mistakes like our parents

We’re careful

And that's what makes up stronger

Childhood is just years in your life
