6. Read the given passage and answer the
following questions:
Sita went to her grandfather and sat down beside him.
"When you are hungry, tell me and I will make the bread,"
she said. "Is your grandmother asleep?"
"Yes. But she will wake soon. The pain is deep."
The old man stared across the at the dark green of the
forest and at the leaden sky. He said, "If she is not better
by morning, I will take her to the hospital in Shahganj.
You may be on your own for two or three days."
Sita nodded gravely. She had been alone before but not
in the middle of the rains with the river so high. But she
knew that someone must stay behind. She wanted
grandmother to get well and she knew that only
grandfather could take the small boat across the river
when the current was so strong. Sita was not afraid of
being left alone but she did not like the look of the river.
That evening it began to rain again. Big pellets of rain
were scarring the surface of the river. But it was warm
rain and Sita could move about in it. Sita rather liked
getting wet in the rain. In the previous month when the
monsoon shower had arrived, washing the dusty leaves
of the trees and bringing up the good smell of the earth
she had exulted in it, had run about shouting for joy. Sita
was now getting a little tired of the rain but she did not
mind getting wet.
She walked about barefooted and bareler ned She was
very sure on her feet her toes were
gripping all kinds of rocks, slippery or ough thin,
Sita was very strong. She had black han, eyes, slim
brown arms and a scar on her thigh. When she was small
visiting her mother's village, a hyena had entered the
house where she was sleeping, fastened to her leg and
tried to drag her away. But her screams had roused the
villagers and the hyena had run off.
it to all
