Answer:

Upon impact,

A lot of people only know that the ship came to a halt. Most people were indifferent.

The wife of Astor went back to bed, Lieutenant Steffanson who had been drinking a Lemonade resumed his pre-occupation.

Some of the card players were too concerned about their game to be concerned. For the most part of the chapter, many people were unaware, others who noticed didn't realise the gravity of the damage and how it would define their lives.

Walter Lord showed the reaction of people to the experience of the impact partly to show that they had the utmost confidence in the vessel and partly because it presents a great contrast to their reaction afterwards when the ship starts to sink.

Cheers

In "Flowers for Algernon," what is one aspect of the text that
AveGali [126]

Answer:

D  He starts to spell badly again.

Explanation:

Daniel Keyes's science-fictional story "Flowers for Algernon," tells the story of Charlie Gordon, a mentally disabled man. The plot follows him from his mental disability to becoming intelligent to such an extent that he encompassed his peers but then reverted back to his old self, rendering him the same developmentally disabled man once again.

At the beginning of the text, we see Charlie as a mentally unstable and disabled man, prepped for a scientific experiment to help him become more intelligent. Then, after he became intelligent, he would do things better than the others. Throughout the "diary entry" of Charlie, we can see his development based on his writing skills.

First, he couldn't spell properly, then became better and excelled in it. He then again began to spell incorrectly, which is a sign of his deteriorating condition.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
