  7. 1. Captain Serrano seemed confused.

    2. Espinosa killed Mendoza, because he disobeyed Magellan. He stabbed him.

    3. Rodrigo cut the San Antonio so that it would float away.

    4. There were fistfights to pass time on shore.

    5. The sailors finally understood that the weather was reversed in the opposite hemisphere. It was bad news for them, because they thought winter had just ended when it was just started.

    6. The natives were taller than the sailors, and they were red.

    7. I thought Magellan and the crew was stupid, because the natives might get angry and revolt. They are much bigger than the Spanish sailors and if they did the crew might die.

    8. Magelleanes and his crew sailed to the South to find the passage.

    9. The marines does not find people, but instead finds a cemetary. There were skulls and Mateo thought he heard ghosts whispering.

    10. San Antonio was one of the biggest ships. Many supplies and men were onboard and Magellan lost many people.
