Q.8474·Miscellaneous·2017·EasyI was lying down in a dark, lonely compartment of the speeding train, trying to sleep. But, quite unusually, sleep eluded me. A vague uneasiness gripped me. It was pitch dark outside. A few points of light flashed by as we sped through a small station and in the dim light I thought I saw a hand gripping the bars of my window. Once again the train was swallowed up by the impenetrable darkness. My heart pounded. My mouth was parched. I could not get up. I do not know how long. I remained thus before the train began to slow down. The reassuring bright lights of the station we were entering revealed no intruder. I breathed again. The narrator could not sleep becauseView question

Q.8477·Miscellaneous·2017·EasyWhen Jonathan (the seagull) came, it was well after dark, and he floated in moonlight on the surface of the ocean. His wings were ragged bars of lead, but the weight of failure was even heavier on his back.
