The last line leaves the reader to infer that Rainsford has killed Zaroff, contrasting Zaroff’s chilling death with Rainsford’s rewarding night’s sleep.
B
The last line leaves the reader to conclude that the events of this story have all been a dream Rainsford had while asleep on the yacht.
C
The last line leaves the reader to infer that Rainsford has killed Zaroff, making the ending a triumphant victory for civilization and American values.
D
The last line leaves the reader to suppose that Rainsford actually likes the comforts of civilization better than nature and that civilization is man’s place above nature
