When he felt the earthquake, do you think Ingenious immediately worried about a tsunami? Give reasons for your answer. Which sentence in the text tells you that the Ingenious family did not have any time to discuss and plan their course of action after the tsunami struck?  

Answer:

Yes, I think when Ingenious felt the earthquake he immediately became worried about the Tsunami. "He took his television set- off his table and put it down on the ground." This line tells us that he was very much alert about what was going to happen. He had no time to discuss the course of action. The line "Then the family rushed out of the house" proves it.
