Reading
Read the following passage and choose the correct answer for the questions:
In this world it is not only futile for the small to appeal to authority, it is
dangerous as well.Fortunately, the tiny voice seldom reaches big ears or who knows what might
happen? When Gafur returned home from the landlords and quietly lay down, his face and eyes were
swollen. The chief cause of so much suffering was Mahesh. When Gafur left home that morning,
Mahesh broke loosefrom his tether, and entering the grounds of the landlord, had eaten up flowers
and upset the corn drying in the sun. When finally they tried to catch him, he had hurt the landlords
youngest daughter and had escaped. This was not the first time this had happened, but Gafur was
forgiven because he was poor. If he had come around, and as on other occasions, begged for the
landlords forgiveness, he would probably have been forgiven but instead he had claimed that he paid
rent, and that he was nobodys slave.
This was too much for Shibu babu, the landlord, to swallow. Gafur had borne the beatings and
tortures without protest. At home, too, he lay in a corner without a word. His heart burnt within him
like the sun outside. He kept no count of how time had passed.

b. The voice of the small people
c. The wrong people
d. The people who are strong
Q.2 Why were Gafurs eyes and face swollen?
a. He had been beaten by the landlord.
b. He was ill.
c. He was lying down
d. He had been hurt physically by Mahesh
Q.3 Why did Gafur not ask the landlords forgiveness?
a. He was poor.
b. He didnt bother about the landlord.
c. He was happy that the landlords property had been damaged.
d. He wanted to save his dignity
Q 5. `To keep count of time means:

b. To be aware of the passage of time
c. To be unconscious
d. To look at a clock
