Read the passage below from "The Most Dangerous Game" and answer the question.

They would be on him any minute now. His mind worked frantically. He thought of a native trick he had learned in Uganda. He slid down the tree. He caught hold of a springy young sapling and to it he fastened his hunting knife, with the blade pointing down the trail; with a bit of wild grapevine he tied back the sapling. Then he ran for his life. The hounds raised their voices as they hit the fresh scent. Rainsford knew now how an animal at bay feels.

He had to stop to get his breath. The baying of the hounds stopped abruptly, and Rainsford's heart stopped, too. They must have reached the knife.

A. euphoria at the thought of having outsmarted General Zaroff

Answer:

C. Rainsford’s sense of uncertainty in knowing whether or not his plan succeeded

Explanation:

Rainsford holds on to perceive what might occur. Since the mutts are presently calm, he understands that his device has worked. Ivan is currently dead. From this point of view, we can say that Rainsford's perspective is one of alleviation. He has a little break from being chased. All things considered, he realizes that the general is as yet alive and envious of chasing him. In this way, his sentiment of alleviation isn't over. Rainsford’s sense of uncertainty in knowing whether or not his plan succeeded  shows.
