Read the following passage from "Five Hours to Simla."
After the cacophony of screeching brakes and grinding gears, there followed the
comparatively static hum of engines, and drivers waited in exasperation for the next lurch
forwards. For the moment there was a lull, curious on that highway. Then the waiting very
quickly began to fray at the edges. The sun was beating on the metal of the vehicles, and
the road lay flattened across the parched plain, with no trees to screen it from the sun. First
one car horn began to honk, then a bicycle rickshaw began to clang its bell, then a
truck blared its musical horn, and then the lesser ones began to go pom-pom, pom-pom
almost in harmony, and suddenly, out of the centre of all that noise, a long, piercing wail
emerged.
A variety of noises filled the air as the sun beat down on the waiting vehicles, showing
O that the long wait was beginning to take its toll on the patience of those who were
caught in the traffic
The screeching brakes and grinding gears of the cars made much noise before the
waiting game in the mid-day heat began.
The cars began to honk at each other, encouraging other vehicles to join in the melody
of traffic sounds, with a baby's cry interrupting the harmony
The cars' engines rumbled steadily with their occupants growing more impatient as
the heat of the sun intensified.
