Read the following passage and answer the following questions.

He was a tall, strong, heavy man, his hands ragged and scarred, with black, broken nails. He had a sabre cut
across one cheek, a dirty, livid white. He was a very silent man by custom. All day he hung upon the cliffs with
a brass telescope; all evening he sat next to the fire. Every day when he came back from his stroll he would ask
if any seafaring men had gone by along the road. At first we thought it was the need of company of his own kind
that made him ask this question, but at last we began to see he was wanted to avoid them. When a seaman did
put up at the inn he would look in at him through the curtained door before he entered the parlour. And he was
always sure to be as silent as a mouse when any such was present. He had taken me aside one day and promised
me a silver fourpenny on the first of every month if I would only keep my “weather-eye open for a seafaring
man with one leg” and let him know the moment he appeared.

broken nails. What does the word ‘ragged’ mean? and weak.
a. big and strong d. a sailor; he did not like to talk and was big
and strong.
b. rough and uneven
c. injured and wounded 20. The man was
d. bony and leathery a. hiding from a seafaring man with one leg.
b. looking for a seafaring man with one leg.
19. The man was
c. a seafaring man with one leg and a telescope.
a. a traveller; he liked to talk and was rich.
d. waiting to meet a seafaring man with one leg.
b. a pirate; he wore ragged clothes and was poor.
