Answer» Reference : These lines have been taken from the lesson ‘A Fellowtraveller’ written by a famous English essayist A.G. Gardiner. [N.B. : The above reference will be used for all explanations of this lesson.] Context : This delightful essay is about an encounter between a mosquito and the author who were travelling in the same compartment of a train. Explanation : The writer was travelling by a passenger train and was left alone in the carriage as all other passengers had alighted from it on the way side stations. It was the last suburban train from London to a Midland town. When the train left the outer ring of London behind, the writer was the only passenger in the compartment and only then he realized that he was alone. |
