no because I don't even know who they were.
The best answer here is A. Throughout the story, Farquhar is chased by the sound of the cannon, which serves as a reminder of the real world. This is to pull him back to reality as he finally reaches his death.
While the other answers are good and apply, they aren't the best answers. Choice B works well as Farquhar does wonder if he actually escaped, however A makes more sense because Farquhar is constantly pushing forward on his journey.
While choice C makes sense, there isn't any sort of rhythm, rhyme, or reason to how the canon goes off in the story.
Choice D makes no sense at all in the context of the story. While Farquhar wants to make it home, it doesn't make much sense that the canon would represent his journey home.
i'm gonna guess B - the interests and fears of the intended audience. but i'm not sure
I believe the temperature of the ocean would be cooler due to the cool breeze hope this helps :)
