Question

Reading passage:



A little boy was crying outside the school building. It was Asmita's brother, who went to music classes once a week. What he had forgotten was that the classes had been cancelled that day. Whoever attended music classes didn't remind him after school. Usually, Asmita would pick him up after his classes. He wondered how he would get back home. He realised that he would have to act quickly. He would have to choose which route he would want to take back home. He decided that he would take the road that went around the park. While he walked home he saw many people. Whoever saw him smiled and waved at him. He enjoyed his walk and reached home before sunset. He wondered why he had cried about it in the first place.

Tap the option that means the same as the given sentences.
He cried. He wondered why he cried in the first place.

Answer 1

Both the sentences are about one person ‘Amit’ who cried. Here, the noun clause ‘why he had cried about it in the first place’ acts as the object in the sentence and is the receiver of the action ‘wondered’. The clause describes the doer of the action.
