The answer is A. The metaphor conveys that Scott's novels are finely crafted, impressive works that address a broad spectrum of topics and ideas.
I believe the answer to this is the thesis.
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.
Bueno ya ves, yo soy de Nuevo México entonces I like to celebrate Cinco de Mayo cuál era originally on May 5, 1862 the victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War. Since I’m from the US I intercept it as a celebration of Mexican culture and heritage. Generally how we celebrate it in the states is: parades, parties, mariachi music, folk dancing, and traditional foods such as tacos and mole poblano, and can’t forget pozole.
