B. Read this story and answer the questions that follow.
A woman was waiting at an airport one night with several long hours before her flight. She hunted
for a book in the airport shops, bought a bag of cookies and found a place
She was engrossed in her book but happened to see, that the man
sitting beside her, as bold as could
be ... grabbed a cookie or two from the bag in between, which she tried to ignore, to avoid a scene.
So, she munched the cookies and watched the clock, as the gutsy cookie thier diminished her stock
She was getting more irritated as the minutes ticked by, thinking, 'If I wasn t so nice, I would blacken
his eye'
With each cookie she took, he took one too, when only one was
e was left, she wondered what he would
0. With a smile on his face and a nervous laugh, he took the last cookie and broke it in half.
He offered her half, as he ate the other, she snatched it from him and thought...oooh, brother. This
guy has some nerve and he's also rude, why he didn't even show any gratitude!
She sighed with relief when her flight was called. She gathered her belongings and headed to the
gate, refusing to look back at the rude thief. She boarded the plane, and sank m her seat, then she
sought her book, which was almost complete. As she reached in her baggage, she gasped with
surprise, there was her bag of cookies, in front of her eyes.
"If mine are here," she moaned in despair, "the others were his, and he tried to share. Too late to
apologise, she realised with grief, that she was the rude one, the ungrateful, the thief.
