Answer: D) "Her bulk dwarfed the ships near her as longshoremen singled up her mooring lines and cast off the turns of heavy rope from the dock bollards."

Explanation:

The exposition of a story refers to the first part of it where the story is introduced along with the characters and other details that serve to set up things like the mood, time and setting of the story.

In the case of the RMS Titanic, this would be the part that speaks about the setting off of the ship as well as a description of the Titanic itself. This is what is provided in option D by describing the size of the Titanic as well as her departure.

Read the excerpt from The Crisis, Number I, by Thomas Paine.

[4] One of the gods pulled out some of its roots for his pregnant wife. [5] This created a hole in the floor of the Sky-World. [6] The man's wife fell through the hole toward the ocean below, clutching the roots in her hand.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

"Silky" Bob's profession shows that he was a cheap man that wanted money and expensive stuff for free but Jimmy Wells understood that money came from hard work and he wanted to stop the ones that thought it came for free.
