Answer 1

The two pieces of evidence that show Harborough considers the shark as belonging in the ocean are:

1. “The shark was not passive, in the element, as I was; it was monarch of the waves, it could drive through them with the precision of a torpedo.”
2. “Every movement of the shark was now plain to me; and it was moving, there was no doubt of it: a trail of bubbles streamed from its flank and a tiny streak of froth fluttered behind the fin.”
