Which of these sentences from the passage best supports the idea that the men find the inner strength to continue? Answer choices for the above question Sometimes the oiler had to scull sharply to keep a sea from breaking into the boat, but otherwise sailing was a success. The cook and the correspondent were not now obliged to slave in order to hold high the oar. Of the four in the dinghy, none had slept any time worth mentioning for two days and two nights previous to embarking in the dinghy, and in the excitement of clambering about the deck of a foundering ship, they had also forgotten to eat heartily. The correspondent wondered ingenuously how in the name of all that was sane could there be people who thought it amusing to row a boat.

 Of the four in the dinghy, none had slept any time worth mentioning for two days and two nights previous to embarking in the dinghy, and in the excitement of clambering about the deck of a foundering ship, they had also forgotten to eat heartily.

Explanation:

This is in relation to the short story, The Open Boat  by Stephen Crane about his real life experience of surviving a shipwreck. The men on the boat had been trying to get to land but the waves were too strong the closer they got to shore so they had to stay at open sea fighting for their lives for 2 days.

None of them slept in this time yet continued to take turns rowing so that they would survive the ordeal. This shows that humans can find the inner strength to continue with a task because the men had not eaten neither had they slept, both of which can revive a person's strength, yet this did not stop them and they kept going until eventually they swam to shore.
