Second Week

This week in class we talked about the two short stories that we read. The first was The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell and the second was The Child by Tiger by Thomas Wolfe. I thought that the first short story was interesting and I enjoyed reading it. I liked how it used suspense to keep you wanting to read more. I also liked the ending because it implies that Rainsford beat General Zaroff without telling you the exact details of the fight. It is a story that makes you think that if hunting animals for fun is right since to General Zaroff hunting humans was the best kind of sport. I thought that the second short story was a little weird and kind of disturbing.  One part when it was weird was when Dick Prosser was running away from the police and he was shooting the people that he passed by. The disturbing part was when the people caught up to him and filled his body with bullets. After they did that they hung his body up for everyone to see. I did not really enjoy this short story very much. I am nervous about the vocabulary quiz that we have because I am not a very good speller.
