Answer 2

These are lines from the autobiography of William O Douglas, 'Of Men and Mountains.

• In his childhood, William was nearly drowned in water.
• Since then he had a phobia of deep water.
• It was further intensified when he joined swimming classes.
• One of his friends pushed him into the YMCA swimming pool.
• The pool was 9 feet deep.
• He planned to escape by jumping from the bottom using all the strength he had.
• But his attempt was futile.
• Because he could move up very slowly.
• He tried to yell and scream for help, but the sound didn't come out of his mouth.
• His legs were paralyzed.
• Again he went to the bottom of the pool.
• In the end, he was saved but it left a terror in his heart.
