The author of this passage, William Finnegan, describes an experience surfing in very high waves off Ocean 
Beach in San Francisco. Only the very bravest and most experienced surfers attempt these waves in the winter. 
As the passage begins, the author and a friend have paddled out but were still too close to shore when a huge 
set of waves trapped them inside. Read the text below and answer the proposed question: The first wave 
snapped my ankle leash--a ten-foot length of polyurethane, strong enough to pull a car uphill--as if it were a 
piece of string. (2) I swam underneath that wave and then kept swimming, toward the open ocean. (3) The 
second wave looked like a three-story building. (4) It, like the first wave, was preparing to break a few yards in 
front of me. (5) I dived deep and swam hard. (6) The lip of the wave hitting the surface above me sounded like 
a bolt of lightning exploding at very close range, and it filled the water with shock waves. (7) I managed to stay 
underneath the turbulence, but when I surfaced I saw that the third wave of the set belonged to another order 
of being. (8) It was bigger, thicker, and drawing much more heavily off the bottom than the others. (9) My arms 
felt rubbery, and I started hyperventilating. (10) I dived very early and very deep. (11) The deeper I swam, the 
colder and darker the water got. (12) The noise as the wave broke was preternaturally low, a basso profundo of 
utter violence, and the force pulling me backward and upward felt like some nightmare of gravity. (13) Again, I 
managed to escape, and when I finally surfaced I was far outside. (14) There were no more waves, which was 
fortunate, since I was sure that one more would have finished me. --William Finnegan, "Surfing," The New 
Yorker Which three senses does Finnegan's description appeal to?

It was beginning to get dark. We were still not home yet. I bet Dad is going to be mad at us, I thought. I yelled 
at my brother to ride his bike faster, but it was difficult to ride bikes uphill. I was so tired that every muscle in my 
legs were burning. My brother finally got off his bike and sat down. I stopped and went back to help him. Suddenly, 
there was a car coming toward us. I could see headlights. It was Dad. He had come to look for us, since we were 
so late getting home. I knew I was going to get into trouble, but at least we were safe. Dad picked us up and took 
us home.
