Question

. Which of the following passages best supports the story’s topic of survival? (99 points)

Timothy warned against going into the water here because the sharks could swim close to shore.

I was starting to be less dependent on the vine rope, and sometimes it seemed to me that Timothy was trying hard to make me independent of
him.

Using my cane to feel the way, to touch driftwood or coral ledges the night tide might have uncovered, I moved along the damp sand, calling
out now and then.

I poured some water from the keg and gave it to him.

Answer 1

Hello!

I believe the answer is A)Timothy warned against going into the water here because the sharks could swim close to shore.

I hope it helps!

Answer 2

That would be the first passage. Timothy did not know if the reef was safe because he never went there, so he did not allow Phillip to go to the reef. When Timothy gets to the reef he winds that there are sharks there. Timothy warns Phillip as he want's to teach him to be independent and be able to survive on his own.
