 . . . that would be a <u><em>clipper ship</em></u>

this would be a larger vessel meant for traveling long distances quickly & smoothly resulting from it's construction using a narrow/streamlined body & large sail spread to catch the wind.

The correct option is D

A clipper is a sailboat appeared in the nineteenth century, elongated and narrow, with three or more masts, and characterized by its high speed. The name clíper comes from the English noun «clip», informal word that denoted at the time «speed». The expression "at a good clip" is used to refer to something that happens quickly. The clipers were the swan song of sailing due to the harassment of mechanically propelled ships.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The correct answer is An article in the textbook that describes his expedition.

Hudson was an English navigator and explorer. It became noticed from 1607, but disappeared only four years later in tragic circumstances.

Little is known about his career in the previous period, but in the last years of his life he made four attempts to discover a shorter sea route to the East, sailing through the North.

In 1607, Hudson was hired by an English financial group. Sailing north, between Greenland and Spitzberg, he sought access to the East in the vicinity of the North Pole. An impassable ice barrier forced him to withdraw, however, when he was only 10º from the Pole.

In 1608, another failed attempt (followed a route along the northern coast of Asia).
