Question

b) Mrs. Pumphrey called Tricki's recovery a triumph of surgery. Why was
this triumph impossible in Mrs. Pumphrey's presence and Dr. Herriot's
absence in Tricki's life during that fortnight?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mrs Pumphrey thinks that the dog's recovery is “a triumph of surgery” because in two weeks, Tricki had recovered completely and had been transformed into a hard-muscled animal. ... She declared Tricki's recovery as a triumph of surgery to express her happiness and gratitude towards the doctor.
