Test IV

English Language

Directions (Q. Nos. 151 to 165) Read the following passage carefully and answer the question given below it. Certain words are printed in bold to help you to locate them while answering some of the questions.

Long ago, there lived a monkey on a jamun tree by the side of a river. The tree was always full of fruits, which were as a sweet as nectar. The monkey used to eat fruits from the tree. The monkey was happily passing his days jumping from one tree to another. Once, a crocodile came out of the waters and took rest under the tree on which the monkey lived. The monkey who was sitting high on a branch, saw the crocodile taking rest under the tree. Since the monkey had no friend, she was very eager to talk to the crocodile and make friends with him. Addressing the crocodile, the monkey said “As you are taking rest under the tree, you’re my guest and it is my duty to offer you food”. The monkey gave the crocodile jamuns to eat. The crocodile ate them to his fill. He thanked the monkey for his generosity and went home.

Ever since that day the crocodile started coming ashore everyday and enjoyed the fruits offered by the monkey. Soon they become good friends. One day, the crocodile asked the monkey for some jamuns to take for his wife. The monkey happily gave the fruits to the crocodile. The crocodile took the fruits cheerfully to his wife and narrated the whole story to her. After eating the fruits, the crocodile’s wife was overjoyed and said to her husband. “Dear, if these fruits are so tasty, then the monkey who eats these fruits must be ten times tastier. Why don’t you bring the heart of this monkey home and I will cook you a meal with it?” The crocodile was stunned to hear such words from his wife. He replied, “Sweetheart, the monkey is my friend. It would not be fair to take h is heart”. The crocodile’s wife was shrewd and pleaded with her husband to bring the monkey’s heart for her. The crocodile was unwilling to deceive his friend, but then his wife insisted on not eating anything till he brought her the monkey’s heart.

The crocodile was left with no other option and so he devised a plan and rushed to the monkey. Reaching ashore, the crocodile said to the monkey, “My wife and I invite you to our home for dinner. My wife is very angry with me for not having invited you earlier”. He stated that his wife would be happy to meet such a nice friend.

The poor monkey didn’t know about the plan and believed the crocodile’s story. He said to the crocodile, “I accept your invitation, but how ill I go with you? I don’t know how to swim?” The crocodile replied, ‘Don’t worry, come and sit on my back. I’ll take you to my house.” The monkey happily sat on the back of the crocodile and they began their journey. The crocodile entered into the deep waters with an intention to kill the monkey. The monkey got scared to see water all around and asked the crocodile to move slowly.

The crocodile though that now he could reveal his real intentions to the monkey, as it was impossible for him to escape from the middle of the river. The crocodile gullibly said to the monkey, “I am taking you to my home to please my wife. She wants to eat your heart. The monkey was taken aback to hear these words.

He kept cool and aid wittingly, ‘Oh dear! Why didn’t you tell me earlier? It would be my privilege to offer my heart to your charming wife. I usually keep my heart safely in the burrow of the tree. In order to serve my heart to your wife, I have to go back to get my heart.”

The foolish crocodile swiftly swam back to the tree where the monkey lived. ON reaching the bank, the monkey quickly jumped off the crocodile’s back and climbed up the tree. The crocodile was in a hurry and realized that the monkey was taking too long to get his heart. Impatiently he asked, “What is the delay? We are getting late for dinner”. The monkey laughed and answered, “My dear foolish friend, can anyone take out his heart and keep it in a burrow. It was all a trick to save my life and teach you a lesson, now go away and don’t ever come back.”
