(Q. No. 1-10) Read the following passage from the lesson “Can’t Climb
Trees Any More”.
He stood on the grass verge by the side of the road and looked over the
garden wall at the old house. It hadn’t changed much. The old house built with solid
blocks of granite wasn’t altered at all. But there was a new outhouse, and there were
fewer trees. He was glad to see that the jackfruit tree still stood at the side of the
building casting its shade on the wall. He remembered his grandmother saying: ‘A
blessing rests on the house where the shadow of a tree falls.’ And so the present
owners must also be receiving the tree’s blessings. At the spot where he stood there
had once been a turnstile, and as a boy he would swing on it, going round and
round until he was quite dizzy. Now the turnstile had gone, the opening walled up.
Tall hollyhocks grew on the other side of the wall.
‘What are you looking at?’
It was a disembodied voice at first. Moments later a girl stood framed
between dark red hollyhocks staring at the man. She was only twelve or thirteen,
slim and dark, with lively eyes and long black hair.
‘I’m looking at the house,’ he said.
‘Why? Do you want to buy it?’
‘Is it your house?’
‘It’s my father’s.’
‘And what does your father do?’
‘He’s only a colonel.’
‘Only a colonel?’
‘Well, he should have been a brigadier by now.’The man burst out laughing.
‘It’s not funny,’ she said. ‘Even Mummy says he should have been a
brigadier.’
It was on the tip of his tongue to make a witty remark (‘Perhaps that’s why
he’s still a Colonel’), but he did not want to give offence. They stood on either side of
the wall, appraising each other.
‘Well,’ she said finally. ‘If you don’t want to buy the house, what are you
looking at?’
‘I used to live here once.’
‘Oh!’
‘Twenty-five years ago. As a boy. As a young man. And then my
grandmother died, and we sold the house and went away.’
She was silent for a while, taking in this information. Then she said, ‘And
you’d like to buy it back now, but you don’t have the money?’ He did not look very
prosperous.
‘No, I wasn’t thinking of buying it back, wanted to see it again, that’s all. How
long have you lived in it?’
‘Only three years,’ she smiled. She’d been eating a melon, and there was still
juice in the corners of her mouth.
‘Would you like to come in and look more closely?’
‘Wouldn’t your parents mind?’
‘They’ve gone to the club.’ They won’t mind. I’m allowed to bring my friends
home.’ ‘Even elderly friends like me?’
‘How old are you?’
‘Oh, just middle aged, but feeling young today.’ And to prove it he decided
he’d climb over the wall instead of going round to the gate. He got up on the wall all
right, but had to rest there, breathing heavily.
‘Middle-aged man on the flying trapeze,’ he muttered to himself.
‘I’ll help you,’ she said, and gave him her hand.
He slithered down into a flower-bed, shattering the stem of a hollyhock.
As they walked across the grass he spotted a stone bench under a mango tree.
It was the bench on which his grandmother used to rest, when she was tired of
pruning rose bushes and bouginvillaea.
