Q-1 (B) Read the prose extract carefully and answer the questions given below it:

(04)

The rains have heralded the arrival of some seasonal visitors - a leopard, and several

thousand leeches.

Yesterday afternoon the leopard lifted a dog from near the servants’ quarter below the

school. In the evening it attacked one of Bijju’s cows but fled at the approached of Bijju’s

mother, who came screaming imprecations.

As for the leeches, I shall soon get used to a little bloodletting everyday.

Other new arrivals are the scarlet minivets (the females are yellow), flitting silently

among the leaves like brilliant jewels. No matter how leafy the trees, these brightly coloured

birds cannot conceal themselves, although, by remaining absolutely silent, they sometimes

contrive to go unnoticed. Along come a pair of drongos, unnecessarily aggressive, chasing the

minivets away.
