Question

• C. the rain as it fell on her balcony
• D. the coolness of the tiles and the chill of the air

Answer 1

Answer:

D. the coolness of the tiles and the chill of the air

When Madhurima is out on the balcony, she feels the "coolness of the tiles" under her bare feet and the "chill of the air" from the night. The passage describes these sensory details, contrasting the coldness of the early morning with the warmth of the sunlight that begins to stream through her bedroom. These sensations—the coolness of the tiles and the chilly air—remind her that it's still early spring and that the day is just beginning to unfold.
