English Language

Directions (Q. 101-115) : Read the following passage carefully and answer the question given below it. Certain words have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions.

Keshav and Yash lived in neighbouring villages. Once, a fair was held nearby and they set off from their homes hoping to do some business there. Keshav filled his sack with cheap cotton, overlaid it with a layer of fine wool, and set off for the fair, Meanwhile Yash, collected some old clothes, put a layer of sheer cotton on top and made his way to the fair. Each stopped to rest under a tree and got to talking. I’have the finest wool in my sack,’ boasted Keshav. Not to be outdone, Yash said, ‘I have cotton of the most superior quality.

The two struck a deal. They would exchange their goods and since wool was more expensive,, Yash would pay Keshav an extra rupee. But Yash had no money on him. So after agreeing to pay Keshav later, they went home, laughing at each other’s folly. It did not take them long to discover that they had been duped. The next day, Keshav lended at Yash’s house, ‘You cheat ! Give me my rupee at least. “ Yash was untroubled by Keshav’s words. ‘Of course. But first help me find the treasure at the bottom of this well. We can divide it.’ So Keshav went into the well. But each time Yash, hauled up the bucket Keshav had filled, he said, ‘Oh ! No treasure here. Try again.’ Keshav soon realized he was being used as free labour to clean the well. So he gave a loud shout, ‘Here is the treasure! Watch out its heavy !’ Yash was amazed that there actually was treasure in the well. As soon as he pulled up the bucket, he threw away the rope so that Keshav could not come up. But, what did  he find in the bucket ? Keshav covered in mud ! They began fighting again. Soon it got too dark to continue and they left for their homes.

But Keshav did not give up easily. He arrived at Yash’s house a few days later. Yash spotted him and told his wife, ‘I will pretend to be dead. Keshav will have to give up.’ But when Keshav heard Yash’s wife wailing, he rushed out to gather the villagers. ‘My friend has died. Let’s take his body for cremation.’ Yash’s wife got scared, ‘Go away. I shall arrange for cremation myself!’ But the villagers thought she was too grief stricken. Once they reached the cremation ground, Keshav told the villagers, ‘It is getting-dark. I shall watch over him during the night.’ When the villagers  had left, Keshav said to Yash, ‘Stop pretending. Give me my money!’ Now, a gang of thieves came upon them and seeing one figure seated on the funeral pyre and another standing next to him talking, they assumed them to be ghosts and dropped their bag of stolen goods and left at top speed.
