Correct Answer: 1


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Explanation : While "rolls" is a valid verb to describe the movement of a train, "rumbles" is a more descriptive and evocative verb in this context. Rumbles suggest a low, continuous sound often associated with the movement of trains on tracks, making it a more appropriate choice.
