Answer:

In the words of Macbeth, the ghost is described as marrowless bones, cold blooded, "has no speculation in [the] eyes".

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" revolves around the success and tragic downfall of Macbeth. The play delves into the themes of loyalty, self-interest, greed, and betrayal.

In Act III scene iv, Macbeth and the nobles were at a state dinner where the ghost of Banquo appeared to him. While everyone's unaware of the ghost, Macbeth clearly saw the ghost, which led Lady Macbeth to make excuses for her husband as "hallucinations". But to Macbeth, the ghost is as clear as day. He addressed it, saying "Thy bones are marrowless, thy blood is cold. Thou hast no speculation in those eyes Which thou dost glare with!"

Through Macbeth's dialogue, we can assume that Banquo appears horrific and repulsive.

The correct answer is option letter B (a successful and hardworking businessman). By definition, a stereotype is a very firm idea about what a particular type of person is like. In this case, the most likely stereotype one can spot in the phrase presented above is the one of a successful and hardworking businessman. One usually has the idea of a businessman who is constantly working or even overworking. In fact, the narrator exaggerates this idea of the hardworking businessman by using a literary technique called “exaggeration”. For instance, the amount of emails that Fred Johnson will be checking (“checking the four thousand emails”).
