Read the adapted excerpt from Moby D1ck by Herman Melville
In the year 1820, the ship Essex, run by Captain Pollard of Nantucket, was cruising in the Pacific Ocean. One day she saw spouts, lowered
her boats, and gave chase to a shoal of sperm whales. Ere long, several of the whales were wounded, when, suddenly, a very large Whale
escaping from the boats, issued from the shoal, and bore directly down upon the ship Dashing his forehead against her hull, he so crushed
her in, that in less than "ten minutes" she settled down and fell over. Not a surviving plank of her has been seen since. After the severest
exposure, part of the crew reached the land in their boats, Being returned home at last, Captain Pollard once more salled for the Pacific in
command of another ship, but was shipwrecked again upon unknown rocks and breakers, for the second time his ship was utterly lost, and
forthwith forswearing the sea, he has never tempted it since
Which choice provides the best objective summary of the excerpt?
OA A large whole destroys the Essex in 1820. The captain survives and then is most unlucky when he also loses that ship on rocks,
OB, Captain Pollard seems to have had the worst time at sea. First, he loses a ship to a whale crushing it, then he loses his second
ship when it hits rocks,
Oc Whaling ships sail at extreme risk. The Essex was lost at sea when it was viciously attacked by a whale. On another voyage,
another ship ran into rocks and breakers.
OD. The Essex, while sailing in the Pacific, encounters a very large whale that destroys it. The captain, on a second voyage, loses
another ship on unseen rocks and decides to stop going on sea voyages
