when he felt the earth quake , do you think Ignesious immediately worried about a tsunami ? Give reasons for your answer. Which sentence in the text tells you that the Ignesious family did not have any time to discuss and plan their cource of action after the tsunami struck?
Answers
Answer:
Ignesious’s first reaction was to put the television set down so that it does not break by falling because of the earthquake. So, no, his first thought was not trained towards Tsunami but he was thinking about an earthquake. If he thought about Tsunami, then he would have tried to run his family to the safety of a high and stable place. Neither would he put his television set down on the ground as that would cause it to drown, first thing during the Tsunami.
The line, “In the chaos and confusion, two of his children caught hold of the hands of their mother’s father and mother’s brother, and rushed in the opposite direction.” tells me that the Ignesious family did not have any time to discuss and plan their course of action after the tsunami struck. For the phrase, “chaos and confusion” clearly shows the family was not prepared.
Answer:
HOPE IT HELPS..
