Read the excerpt below and answer the question.
during our passage, i first saw flying fishes, which surprised me very much; they used frequently to fly across
the ship, and many of them fell on the deck. i also now first saw the use of the quadrant; i had often with
astonishment seen the mariners make observations with it, and i could not think what it meant. they at last
took notice of my surprise, and one of them, willing to increase it, as well as to gratify my curiosity, made me
one day look through it. the clouds appeared to me to be land, which disappeared as they passed along.
this heightened my wonder, and i was now more persuaded than ever, that i was in another world, and that
every thing about me was ragic.
in at least 100 words, discuss how equiano's descriptions in this excerpt makes the other portions of the text that much
more affecting

(4) other obvious benefits of fire are its uses in cooking and in hunting. (5) probably even more important, however, is that learning to control fire allowed people to change the very rhythm of their lives. (6) before fire, the human daily cycle coincided with the rising and setting of the sun. (7) with fire, though, humans gained time to think and talk about the day’s events and to prepare strategies for coping with tomorrow. the sentence that expresses the main idea is: (type the number of the sentence. then click “go.”)
