A. It seemed a long way down. Those nine feet were more like ninety, and before I touched bottom my lungs were ready to burst. But when my feet hit bottom I summoned all my strength and made what I thought was a great spring upwards. I imagined I would bob to the surface like a cork. Instead, I came up slowly. I opened my eyes and saw nothing but water— water that had a dirty yellow tinge to it. I grew panicky. I reached up as if to grab a rope and my hands clutched only at water. I was suffocating.
(a) Those nine feet seemed to the author more like ninety. It means-
(i) Douglas was calculative while swimming.

(iii) Douglas was analytical due to suffocation.
(iv) Douglas was humourous despite being a victim
