Read the excerpt from Part 2 of "The Most Dangerous Game,” by Richard Connell.
Following the trail with the sureness of a bloodhound came General Zaroff. Nothing escaped those searching black eyes, no crushed blade of grass, no bent twig, no mark, no matter how faint, in the moss. So intent was the Cossack on his stalking that he was upon the thing Rainsford had made before he saw it. His foot touched the protruding bough that was the trigger. Even as he touched it, the general sensed his danger and leaped back with the agility of an ape. But he was not quite quick enough; the dead tree, delicately adjusted to rest on the cut living one, crashed down and struck the general a glancing blow on the shoulder as it fell; but for his alertness, he must have been smashed beneath it.
What is the most likely reason the film adaptation changes this scene so that General Zaroff shoots arrows at Rainsford and his companion?
to increase the number of props
to create an opportunity for added dialogue
to add a visual that creates suspense
to make the setting seem more realistic
