Sometimes he whirled down the incline of a wave as if he were on a hand sled.
The man is clearly in a context of desperation or at least difficulty, stuck out at sea on a life preserver. The imagery brings one of a childlike delight or a fun situation. However that is contrary to the actual situation. The man clings to a life preserver, trying to survive, not have fun, but nature rolls on, indifferent to this man's plight.

According to the Article, why were thousands of Cuban children stranded in the U.S. after 1962?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

A . Because the Cuban Missile Crisis resulted in the end of all U.S. flights to and from Cuba.

Explanation:

Operation Peter Pan, or known in Cuba as Pedro Pan, was the effort of the United States government to ensure the safety of Cuban children amidst the rise of Fidel Castro's rise in power. This effort was a humanitarian act to ensure the safety of the children of the dissident parents of the latest Cuban government's communist regime.

But this 'relief' effort was left hanging by the Cuban Missile Crisis that 'cut' all ties between the two nations. The Crisis led to the discontinuation of the flights from Cuba, resulting in the children stranded in the US while their parents were unable to leave Cuba and join their children.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
