What attempts did the ship make to defeat the 'monster?'
Find and copy lines from the passage describing at least two of the attempts.

Very Long Answer

Solution

The ship Abraham Lincoln tried many times to beat the strange sea creature, which turned out to be an unknown force. Here are two big attempts:

  • Attempt 1: Chasing the Monster at Full Speed
    • Line from the passage: The crew was waiting impatiently for orders from their leader. The latter, after carefully observing the animal, ordered the engineer to sail full steam towards the animal.
  • Attempt 2: Firing a Cannon at the Monster
    • Line from the passage: Our forecastle cannon was immediately loaded and levelled. The cannoneer fired a shot, but his shell passed some feet above the cetacean, which stayed half a mile off.
