Answer 1

(a) Lencho's house was situated on the crest of a low hill in the valley. The whole day he sat seeing the sky because he knew his fields needed downpour or at least a shower, so he was waiting to see the signs of rain. (b) Anne wanted to keep a diary because she felt that people change and can't be trusted but paper doesn't change and patiently documents one's experience.
(c) Griffin was a brilliant scientist. He invented some drugs and became an invisible person. But he misused his scientific discovery and became a lawless person. He started enjoying harming people. Thus, he was not a true scientist.
 (d) Horace Danby loved rare and expensive books. He was quiet passionate about them. He used to rob a safe every year to satisfy his hunger of reading. He used to buy selected books through an agent.
