Answers
The roar of a tiger broke the silence of the deathly stillness of the night.
Explanation:
The Tiger in the Tunnel is a story written by Ruskin Bond. In this story, he talks of a 12-year-old boy and his family who face the stark reality of their humble existence with honor and duty.
Tembu's father works as a watchman for the railroad in a tribal village. One night, he sets out to examine the signal lamp leaving Tembu in the hut. Soon the roar of a tiger tears through the night. When Tembu goes in search of his father, he finds that his body has been torn down by the animal and the tiger was itself hit by the train further along the rails.
Tembu takes up his father’s job at the tunnel; the responsibility of protecting his family lies on his shoulder now.
