    The correct answer to the question is foreshadowing.

    Explanation:

    The Most Dangerous Game is a short story written by Richard Connell. It's the story of a hunter from New York. He takes a trip and falls of a yacht. After he is abandoned in the Caribbean Sea, a Russian aristocrat hunts him.

    Foreshadowing is a devices used in literature to give an advance of what is going to happen in the story. We can see some red flags in the story, such as the name of the island (S*it-Trap Island) and its description (a curious dread of the place.) Based on these descriptions, we can predict that something good happening there is very difficult. These red flags are a sign for the hunter's fate.
