1. When he felt the earthquake, do you think lgnesious immediately worried about a tsunami? Give reasons for your answer. Which sentence in the text tells you that the lgnesious family did not have any time to discuss and plan their course of action after the tsunami struck? 

( যেতিয়া তেওঁ ভূমিকম্পঅনুভৱ কৰিছিল, আপুনি ভাবেনে যে চুনামিৰ বিষয়ে লগে লগে চিন্তিত? আপোনাৰ উত্তৰৰ কাৰণ দিয়ক। পাঠৰ কোনটো বাক্যই আপোনাক কয় যে চুনামি আক্ৰমণহোৱাৰ পিছত তেওঁলোকৰ কাৰ্যপন্থা আলোচনা আৰু পৰিকল্পনা কৰিবলৈ এলজিনেছিয়াছ পৰিয়ালৰ কোনো সময় নাছিল?)

Ans. No, Ignesious did not suspect a tsunami when he felt the tremors. He took his television set and placed it on the ground so that it would not fall and break. This shows that he did not get worried of a tsunami immediately. Otherwise, he would have rushed out of the house at the first instant.

3. How are Meghna and Almas's stories similar?

( মেঘনা আৰু আলমাছৰ কাহিনীবোৰ কেনেদৰে একে?)

Ans. Both Meghnas and Almas families had washed away in tsunami but they were the only members from their respective families who had survived. Both of them kept floating in the sea for days. Meghna floated in the sea for two days holding on to a wooden door.

4. What are the different ways in which Tilly's parents could have reacted to her behaviour? What would you have done if you were in their place?

( টিলিৰ পিতৃ-মাতৃয়ে তাইৰ আচৰণৰ প্ৰতি কেনে ধৰণৰ প্ৰতিক্ৰিয়া দেখুৱাব পাৰিলেহেঁতেন? যদি আপুনি তেওঁলোকৰ ঠাইত থাকিলহেঁতেন তেন্তে আপুনি কি কৰিলেহেঁতেন?)

Ans. Tilly's parents could have reacted by scolding, ignoring, understanding, setting boundaries, or using positive reinforcement. I would choose understanding, having a calm conversation, addressing any issues, and reinforcing positive behavior. Creating a supportive environment is crucial for her growth.

5. If Tilly's award was to be shared, who do you think she should share it with - her parents or her geography teacher?

( যদি টিলিৰ বঁটা ভাগ বতৰা কৰিব লগা হয়, তেন্তে আপুনি কাক এইটো ভাগ বতৰা কৰা উচিত বুলি ভাবে - তাইৰ মাক-দেউতাক বা তাইৰ ভূগোলৰ শিক্ষক?)

Ans. If Tilly's award is for something related to her recognizing a tsunami or taking action to save people from one, then she should consider sharing it with her geography teacher.

Here's the reasoning:

• The teacher likely provided the knowledge that allowed Tilly to identify the signs of a tsunami.
• This knowledge was crucial in her taking action.

Her parents, while undoubtedly supportive, probably didn't directly contribute to the specific knowledge Tilly used.

Of course, the final decision is Tilly's. She might want to consider her parents' overall support and encouragement as well.

6. What are the two different ideas about why so few animals were killed in the tsunami? Which idea do you find more believable?

( চুনামিত ইমান কম জন্তু কিয় হত্যা কৰা হৈছিল সেই বিষয়ে দুটা ভিন্ন ধাৰণা কি? আপুনি কোনটো ধাৰণা অধিক বিশ্বাসযোগ্য বুলি বিচাৰে?)

Ans. The two different ideas are (i) the animals possess a south sense and know when the earth is going to shake. (ii) The animal possess more acute hearing which helps them to hear or feel the earth's vibration. They can sense an approaching disaster long before humans can do.
