“Then we will have to continue the fight,” said the other.

(i) What made him say that?

(ii) Did the fight continue? If not, why not?

(i) Suraj spoke the words, “Then we will have to continue the fight,” to the other boy, Ranji. Because he did not like Ranji’s attitude who refused to accept defeat. So, Suraj deferred the fight for the next day.

(ii) No, the fight didn’t continue the next day. Though a day before both of them decided to fight none of them took up the issue the next day. Both Suraj and Ranji needed each other’s help, so they compromised.
