Direction: Read the passage and answer the question

 The wind howled like a vengeful spirit, whipping through the desolate streets with an eerie insistence. It carried with it the acrid scent of smoke and the distant, muffled sounds of chaos. The city, once a vibrant tapestry of life, now lay shrouded in a suffocating silence, broken only by the occasional creak of a swaying sign or the plaintive cry of a lone survivor.

 

As I navigated the labyrinthine alleys, every step seemed to echo in the hollow chambers of my heart. Memories of laughter and shared moments now felt like fragile remnants, scattered by the relentless tempest. The buildings, once proud sentinels of the skyline, stood as battered, hollow shells, bearing silent witness to the cataclysm that had befallen them.

 

In the distance, the remnants of a bridge jutted out like skeletal fingers, reaching for a sky veiled in ominous clouds. It was a stark reminder of the divide that had torn through the heart of this once-thriving metropolis. The river below, once teeming with life, now flowed with a mournful solemnity, carrying with it the detritus of shattered dreams.

 

In the midst of this desolation, I stumbled upon a relic of hope, a small garden definitely clinging to life amidst the rubble. Its riotous burst of colour was a poignant rebuke to the monochrome devastation that surrounded it. Each flower seemed to hold its head high, an embodiment of resilience in the face of unimaginable loss.

 

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long, anguished shadows, I found solace in this fragile oasis. It was a reminder that even amidst the darkest hours, life endured, finding a way to bloom in the unlikeliest of places. And in that moment, I vowed to carry forth the spirit of this garden, a testament to the enduring power of the human spirit.
