C
Our search team poured into the control room to man their stations.
D
After the long slow trip out to the site, we were finally getting down to business.
Explanation
A debris field is an area where objects or fragments have been scattered. Sentence B describes a long trail of objects scattering from the Titanic as it sank, so it explains what the debris field would be. The other sentences describe the search effort or the team rather than scattered objects.
