Read the passage from "The Most Dangerous Game.” "Rainsford!" screamed the general. "How in God's name did you get here?"

"Swam," said Rainsford. "I found it quicker than walking through the jungle."

The general sucked in his breath and smiled. "I congratulate you," he said. "You have won the game."

Rainsford did not smile. "I am still a beast at bay," he said, in a low, hoarse voice. "Get ready, General Zaroff."

The general made one of his deepest bows. "I see," he said. "Splendid! One of us is to furnish a repast for the hounds. The other will sleep in this very excellent bed. On guard, Rainsford." . . .

He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided.

Which statement best describes how Rainsford solves his moral dilemma in this passage?

a. Rainsford calls a truce with the general even though he knows the general is a terrible man.
b. Although he believes that murder is wrong, Rainsford chooses to kill the general and end the game for good.
c. Instead of killing others or himself, Rainsford lets the general win the game but takes his bed.
d. Rainsford does not smile even though he is thrilled that he won the game.
