Question 3 of 5
3. Question
lt was already late when we set out for the next town, which according to the map was about 15 km away on the other side of the hills. There we felt that we would find a bed for the night. Darkness fell soon after we left the village, but luckily we met no one as we drove swiftly along the narrow winding road that led to the hills. As we climbed higher, it became colder and rain began to fall, making it difficult at times to see the road. I asked John, my companion, to drive more slowly. After we had travelled for about 20 km, there was still no sign of the town which was marked on the map. We were beginning to get worried. Then without warning, the car stopped and we found we had run out of petrol.

The travellers set out for the town although it was getting dark because
Correct
Answer : d
The passage does not mention that they were in a hurry. It also does not mention that the next town was a hill-resort. It is also clear from the passage that they were not in a wilderness when they started for the next town. Hence, options (a), (b) and (c) are not correct. On the other hand, the distance of the next town is mentioned as only 15 km and it is also mentioned that the town offered a bed for the night. Thus, the right answer is option (d).
