Which pair correctly matches the character to the corresponding work in the 'MATCHING III' list?

• A. Fedallah — A Rescue
• B. Zekle — The Courtin
• C. Deerslayer — Moby Dick
• D. Pearl — The Scarlet Letter

Answer: (B)

The key idea is matching a character to the work in which they appear. Zekle is a character from The Courtin, a traditional ballad about rustic courtship, where Zekle interacts with Priscilla. That makes the pairing with The Courtin the correct cross-reference. The other options mix characters with works where they do not belong: Fedallah is from Moby-Dick, not A Rescue; Deerslayer is from The Deerslayer, not Moby Dick; Pearl is a figure in The Scarlet Letter, not The Courtin. So the only accurate match here is Zekle with The Courtin.
