Part A In “A Cub Pilot,” why does the narrator believe that it is so important for a steamboat pilot to have a good memory? All jobs that require great skill also require very keen memories. The river’s physical features are constantly changing and hard to keep straight. Each boat that a pilot steers is bound to be quite different from others. Memory is very closely related to judgment and courage. Question 2 Part B Which statement from “A Cub Pilot” best supports the answer in Part A? “If you will take half of the signs in that long street, and change their places once a month, and still manage to know their new positions . . . you will understand what is required of a pilot’s peerless memory.” “One cannot easily realize what a tremendous thing it is to know every trivial detail of twelve hundred miles of river and know it with absolute exactness.” “To know the Old and New Testaments by heart . . . is no extravagant mass of knowledge, and no marvelous facility, compared to a pilot’s massed knowledge of the Mississippi.” “By the time he has become a pilot, he cannot be unmanned by any danger a steamboat can get into; but one cannot quite say the same for judgment.” I need help ASAP I think this is due today qwq
