 Discuss the following questions with your partner. What difference did you notice between the reaction of the children and the adults when faced with danger?

Answer:

There was not much of a difference between the reaction of the children and the adults when faced with danger. Both showed courage and strength. The children showed a more positive frame of mind. The captain and his crew members tried to save the boat but the impetus given to the captain was from his son who said that he was not afraid to die as long as they were together.
