Answer:

Explanation: Being on a boat during a hurricane may not sound so safe. Some would say you could have better luck in a car than a boat. Well, it is actually safer to be on a boat than a car for different reasons.

If you are on the water and know that there is a hurricane coming you would be better sheltered on your boat rather than finding somewhere on shore. When on a boat, there are windows, doors and hatches. Make sure you seal them up and make sure to shut off your boat's fuel lines. Once you do, and want to make sure that it is even more secured; take two anchors and tie the boat up and position it in the direction of the prevailing winds. If you make sure that all major factors of the boat like windows, doors, and hatches are all locked up and the boat it secured, then the boat will make it during the hurricane.  

 In addition, being in a car is not the smartest thing to do. It is risky if you do the following.

  • Don't go outside
  • Don't drive
  • Don't' go near exposed windows or glass.  

It is pretty obvious not to go outside for safety reasons. There are strong winds, heavy rain, and threat of lightning that make going outside a risky proposition. Don't drive. When the wind speed is high you car would not make it through, you may not either. Your car could become a projectile, or even damaged by the wind-blown debris during a hurricane.

In conclusion, being on a boat is much safer than a car for the reasons above and keep in mind all the things that can happen if you go out during a hurricane.

I would say the correct answer is B. <span>focus on a key idea or a question raised by the essay to which you're responding.
The most important thing you should do when writing a response paper is to bring your attention to the main message that the original author wanted to convey. You should criticize (positively or negatively) whether the author managed to get his or her ideas through and then move on to other elements of the text.
