English

4 0

In the exposition of the short story "Three Skeleton Key" written by George G. Toudouze, the Narrator works on the island called Three Skeleton Key. The island got its name since three men a couple years ago tried escaping from Cayenne on a small, stolen canoe. Later they died of hunger and thirst. So, the Narrator works with two other men in a lighthouse by the names of Le Gleo and Itchoua. Late one night, the three men were working in the lighthouse, and they saw a ship sailing towards the island, but it wasn't stopping, it was headed straight towards the island. "Are they drunk, are they insane?" exclaimed Itchoua. Then they realize that there is no crew on board and no one is controlling the ship. Also, there are a bunch of rats on the ship that are huge. A couple hours later, the ship crashes in the reef by the island and sinks in the sea. They are relieved to see the rats gone, but then they start swimming back up to the surface and towards that island. The rats swim up to the shore of the island and the three men run into the lighthouse. The rats start climbing up the lighthouse and try biting through the walls. The three men are stuck inside the lighthouse for days.

What does the word hardy mean in this excerpt from MacBeth?
Troyanec [42]

Strong


In this excerpt hardy is describing soldier. The soldier is also described as brave and bloody. Since he is standing before the king after having just been in battle, we can assume that he is a strong fighter as he survived the fighting. When looking at the other choices, merciless seems too violent of a description to follow the word good. Also, obedient shouldn't be chosen because even though the soldier is obedient, loyal would be a more appropriate term. Difficult just doesn't fit at all.
