1. What did they see first?

Explanation

Based on the given options, "the tunnel covered" is the only logical answer. The question asks what they saw first, and out of the given options, the only thing that can be seen first is the tunnel covered. The other options (a dead body, horses, a wagon) do not indicate anything about being seen first. Therefore, the tunnel covered is the correct answer.

2. What did they use to fix the problem?

Explanation

Nitroglycerin is commonly used as an explosive material in various applications, including construction and mining. It is highly volatile and can generate a large amount of energy when detonated. Therefore, it is likely that they used nitroglycerin to fix the problem, as it is a powerful explosive that can be used to blast or demolish objects.

3. Who was trapped inside?

Explanation

Both Tom and Winnie's Dad were trapped inside.

Submit
4. How long ago had the accident happened?

Explanation

The correct answer is "minutes ago" because the question is asking for a specific time frame in which the accident occurred. "Minutes ago" implies that the accident happened recently, within the past few minutes. The other options, such as "hours ago," "the day before," and "last week," suggest longer time periods, which are not as recent as "minutes ago."

Submit
5. What happened to some of the rescuers?

Explanation

The correct answer is "They were injured." This suggests that some of the rescuers faced injuries while carrying out their rescue mission. The answer implies that the rescuers were not unscathed and faced physical harm during their efforts.

Submit
6. How many men died in the tunnel?

Explanation

The correct answer is 0 because the question asks for the number of men who died in the tunnel, and the answer options provided do not include any number greater than zero. Therefore, it can be inferred that no men died in the tunnel.

Submit
7. What caused the accident?

Explanation

The accident was caused by dynamite being set too close to the support. This likely resulted in an explosion or structural damage that caused the roof to cave in.

Submit
8. Why was the foreman surprised?

Explanation

The foreman was surprised because Winnie arrived at the scene of the accident very quickly.

Submit
9. Why was it taking so long?

Explanation

The correct answer suggests that the reason it was taking so long is because the whites refused to work with the Chinese. This implies that there was a lack of cooperation and collaboration between the two groups, which could have significantly slowed down the progress of whatever task or project they were working on.
