THE QUESTIONS THAT FOLLOW. (1 x 5 = 5)
(A) The house — the only one in the entire valley — sat on the crest of a low hill.
From this height one could see the river and the field of ripe corn dotted with the
flowers that always promised a good harvest. The only thing the earth needed was
a downpour or at least a shower. Throughout the morning Lencho — who knew
his fields intimately — had done nothing else but see the sky towards the northeast. “Now we’re really going to get some water, woman.” The woman who was
preparing supper, replied, “Yes, God willing”. The older boys were working in the
field, while the smaller ones were playing near the house until the woman called to
them all, “Come for dinner”. Lencho had predicted, big drops of rain began to fall.
In the north-east huge mountains of clouds could be seen approaching. The air was
fresh and sweet. The man went out for no other reason than to have the pleasure
of feeling the rain on his body.
