Timothy most likely warns Phillip to avoid swimming in the water because

1.he sees sharks swimming very close to the shoreline.

2.he knows that there are moray eels living in the crevices.

3.German submarines may detect they are on the island.

4.the birds have their nesting grounds on the beach nearby.

I think either a or b

Ms. Sue has retired for the night. It's after midnight EST. I suggest you read the work to find out why Timothy warns Philip to stay out of the water. I'm sure the answer is waiting for any reader to find it. But, you do have to read the work for yourself. I can't read it for you.

To determine the correct answer, let's analyze the given options:

1. Timothy sees sharks swimming very close to the shoreline: This is a valid reason for Timothy to advise Phillip to avoid swimming in the water. Sharks are known to be dangerous to humans, and if Timothy observes them in close proximity to the shoreline, it indicates the potential risk of encountering them while swimming.

2. Timothy knows that there are moray eels living in the crevices: Moray eels can also pose a threat to swimmers, as they have sharp teeth and can deliver a painful bite if provoked. If Timothy is aware of their presence in the crevices, it would be a valid reason for him to warn Phillip to avoid swimming.

3. German submarines may detect they are on the island: This reason seems unrelated to the safety of swimming in the water. It doesn't provide any explanation as to why Timothy would warn Phillip about swimming.

4. The birds have their nesting grounds on the beach nearby: Although birds nesting on the beach may inconvenience swimmers due to droppings or territorial behavior, it is not directly related to the safety aspect of swimming.

Based on the analysis, it appears that both options 1 and 2 provide valid reasons for Timothy to warn Phillip about swimming in the water. Therefore, it could be either option a (sharks) or option b (moray eels).
