Diving for treasure commonlit
igomit [66]

Answer:

1) B) The ocean has many beautiful things to offer, but they are best left untouched by humans.

2) D) “it held wealth / beyond measure / she left it behind for the ocean to keep.” ( Lines 17-19)

3) D) It wasn’t hers to take.

Explanation:

The author describes the great value of the treasure and how it was just lying under the ocean unexplored by humans. The diver is a human, and despite seeing clearly the immense values of this treasure, decided to leave it in the ocean. The phrase "and though she could see  it held wealth  beyond measure  she left it behind for the ocean to keep." explains this point.

The diver left this treasure behind because she was just a diver, it was not her prerogative to go search for underwater treasures. Nowhere in the passage suggests that the treasure's wealth is limited to the ocean and useless on the land. It's wealth was even described to be beyond measure.

It was not written that she made an attempt to carry the treasure but could not due to difficulty.

If Walden pond was unfathomed was it deep or shallow
Delicious77 [7]

If Walden Pond was unfathomed, then it was deep.

Unfathomed, in the context with water, can mean that its depth is not certain, that the water is extending downward from the surface. Unfathomed means it cannot be measured because it is extremely deep.
