Go through Part-I carefully, and make a list of as many words as you can find that indicate movement of different kinds. (There is one word that occurs repeatedly — count how many times!) Put them into three categories.
fast movement

slow movement

neither slow nor fast

Can you explain why there are many words in one column and not in the others?

Solution

Fast movement	Slow movement	neither slow nor fast
rushed out swept away recede ran washed away	rising	floating walking

There are more words in the first category as compared to the others because the incident (the tsunami) took place very quickly without giving timeto plan or think anything. It was a disaster and swept away everything very quickly.
