Question

Which of the following is/are indicated by the description in the passage?
1. Time before sunrise
2. Time after sunset
3. Clouds
4. Birds
Select the correct answer using the code given below:

• A. 2 and 3 only
• B. 2 only
• C. 2, 3 and 4 only
• D. 1 and 4 only

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

1 and 4 only

Option D is the right answer because it is clearly mentioned in the passage that - 'The sky was already full of rusting wings.' which means birds (4) and

'But when Jean stepped into the still lusterless water, he seemed to be swimming in an undetermined darkness until he saw the streaks of red and gold over the horizon.' which means time before sunrise (1)

There is no evidence in the passage to suggest that Options A and B are the right answers.

Hence, these are incorrect.

Option C is incorrect because both Option A and Option B are not the right answers.
