Explanation:

  • A didactic style of journalism is one that has been supposed to be even more enlightening and creative. Commandments are usually didactic, as they hit targets at teaching a spiritual message.

loris [4]

Answer:

Swim toward the island; the waves aren't going to take you anywhere  

Explanation:

A swell in the ocean or in water is a series of waves that are caused by the wind currents across the water surface. It needs a large surface of water to develop a swell. It propagates at the interface between the air and the water surface.

A swell is formed by the wind strength over time and distance.  

In the given context, when the ship capsizes because of the swell coming from the northeast direction and there is a island at the southwest direction, I quickly need to swim towards the island because the waves will not carry me to the island instead it will force me deep into the ocean beneath its strong waves. Therefore, I need to swim towards the island as fast as possible.

Hence the answer is ---

Swim toward the island; the waves aren't going to take you anywhere
