UNSEEN PROSE AND POETRY
Read the passage and answer the question
”Diversion through Larteh!” This is the sign in the middle of the road. They have diverted the 24 – Kilometre Mamfe-Aburi-Adenta Road because of the major read works. The Mamfe-Larteh-Adenta diversion makes the journey twice as long. The longer route is the shorter.
\The little jeep flashes past the deserted police checkpoint. The howling wind, like a stretching comb, stretches Kwyeiwa’s hair in flapping furrows behind her as she stands clinging to metal support in the back of the open jeep, petrified. The jeep negotiates the hairpin bend below the overhang near Tamara’s place at breakneck speed; now it is on the stretch to the Kodiable junction. The little vehicle laps up the distance. Presently the travellers arrive at the last crossroads. Kodiabe lies as the crow flies, Somanya to the left. The jeep turns right towards Accra.
Kyeiwa is
- relaxed
- ecstatic
- frightened
-
elated
