Question

Read this excerpt from A Night to Remember.

One after another they now dropped rapidly into the sea: No. 6 at 12:55 . . . No. 3 at 1:00 . . . No. 8 at 1:10.

What idea does this excerpt support?

a lack of organization
a need for leadership
a sense of urgency
a feeling of loss

Answer 1

Answer: Titanic

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a book about the titanic, I would assume the "No." dropping are the numbers of people. I have not read the book, so I am probably not correct. Think about what people drowning one after another symbolizes, and you will probably get the answer. It probably doesn't mean a lack of organization. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

A sense of urgency. You can come to this conclusion by seeing the repetition of time in the excerpt, they are paying close attention to it.
