Read the following text and answer the given questions :
I was on my way from Faizabad railway station to Lucknow. I had arrived at the station half an hour
in advance of the time for the train's departure. I sat on a bench watching the monkeys frolicking on the
trees and on the open platform. The monkeys descended now and then to collect half-sucked mango
stones and the remainders of food from the platform. The younger monkeys sat on the boughs of neem
and tamarind trees, ready to jump after any food that may be visible.
Just then the train was announced by the ringing of the station bell. I concentrated on securing a
seat for myself in the train. I got a window seat overlooking the platform. Some other passengers joined
me in the compartment. We were all sweating from the rising heat of the summer. Several passengers
were busy filling up their small earthen pitchers from a water pump. I was struck by the genius of a
monkey in snatching away the loin cloth of a pious person who was taking a bath under the pump. A
great deal of general amusement was caused by this incident. The bather then requested the monkey
to return his loin cloth. The monkey was generous and threw it down from the neem tree at the man's
feet.
