In the short story, “The Most Dangerous Game,” the main character Rainsford had gotten stranded on a dangerous island where Zaroff, a Russian Cossack General, hunted humans for sport. He feels that God put the weak on earth to give the strong pleasure, and up until it was his turn to be hunted, so did Rainsford. Earlier in the story Rainsford had stated, “The world is made up of two classes-- the hunters and the huntees.” And as harsh as it may sound, it is technically correct. The world is made of hunters and huntees, predator and prey.
Softball In my my paper I will tell you why you, or other people should play softball. Softball is fun to play, in my opinion, and I think that if you tried it you could have fun or become a fantastic softball player. If you just tried softball and decide to keep at it you could become one of the greatest softball players that ever lived, so that is why I think that you should just try it. Softball is a sport played by women unless it is coed then it can also be played with men.
In today’s society, more and more kids are getting participation trophies for doing nothing except showing up. Yes it is important to teach kids to do their best, but being awarded just for being as good as you already are doesn't give kids the motivation to make themselves even better. Why would they want to improve if they already have that shiny trophy? I do not believe that participation trophies should be handed out like they are.
When Pokemon GO first released, I heard some say it is better than the other video games because at least people are walking around. Is that really the problem some parents and adults have with video games; a lack of exercise? If that is really the case, why is book reading viewed in such a positive light? When you read, you just sit there.
High school sports are fast approaching and everybody is brushing up on their skills. Entitlement is when somebody has the right to do something and exists in every high school sport Starting varsity is most player’s main goal, but it comes at a cost. Athletes should have to earn their spot to play varsity, it should not be given to them. Over the years I can definitely relate to this, and playing varsity has brought out the best in me by revealing my true character. Not having entitlement in sports allows everyone an equal chance of earning a varsity spot.

I believe that game testing is a real job and an important one at that. In today’s gaming industry, the games on the market needed to be tested. Who else could have done so, without the game’s themselves being bug-ridden. In the early days of computer and videogames, the developers oversaw testing. As games become more complex, “Quality Assurance” was needed.
The air hockey table is perhaps one of the most enjoyable indoor game tables ever invented. The best thing about the game is its universal appeal. People who play air hockey range from kids to adults and even the elderly as well. It appeals to older generations unlike video games which appeal only mostly to the younger ones.

Over the years there has been a big controversy over whether video games are relatively good or extremely bad for children. Video games are super beneficial to a kid’s learning process and have been proven to increase social skills, productivity, and stress. The fear that video games are harmful to a child, is proven through countless experiments that they are actually great for their growth and brain capacity.
