ENGLISH

1. Read the following passage carefully.

Once upon a time there lived a famous holy man. He was a very religious and learned person.

His name was Naman. One day, he decided to go to another village. He took with him only

three things. The first was a lamp so that he could read the holy books in the evening. The

next was a cock to wake him up in the morning so that he could offer his prayers. The last was

a donkey who could carry him on its back.

After traveling for many miles, he came to a small village. Nobody gave him shelter there. So

he went out of the village and sat under a tall tree. Naman had no food to eat and nothing to

drink. He lit the lamp to read the holy book but a strong wind blew out the lamp. He said, "God

is great and whatever he does must we for the best". And he stretched himself out on the cold

earth and went to sleep. The next morning when he woke up the sun was shining brightly. He

saw some villagers coming towards him. "Are you all right"? They asked him. "No, I'm not",

complained Naman, "You wouldn't give me any shelter. So I had to sleep under this tree

without any food or drink. And the wind blew out my lamp so I could not read my holy book."

'Is that all?" cried the villagers. "During the night some robbers attacked us and took away

everything we had. Anyone who tried to stop them was beaten up and three men were killed.

Naman once again knelt on the ground and thanked God.

Answer the following questions briefly.
