Answer 1

Answer: Option(a) they were scared of the tiger

Explanation:

They withdraw into their homes because they were scared of the tiger.

A tiger who was been training tricks from his master to perform in front of the large crowd had just escaped from the circus and was headed towards the town.

As he was walking  down the streets, he found people running here and there in utter confusion and fear. They all were trying to find a safe heaven for themselves. The sheer presence of the tiger was enough for the townspeople to run for a cover, which the tiger found a bit unusual as he was accustomed to see them in huge numbers from close proximity during his performance in the circus.

Hope this helps.
