A.6. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow :
A landowner was gifted a roast chicken and a bottle of fruit juice by a farmer. The
landowner called his servant and told him to take the farmer's gift to his house.
Knowing how crafty the servant was, he explained to him that under the cloth, there
was a live bird and also a bottle of poison. He advised him not to uncover the gift on the
way, for if he did so, the bird would fly away and even the smell of the poison in the
bottle would be enough to kill him.
The servant, knowing his master only too well, found a cozy corner, and not only ate
the roasted chicken, but also drank the delicious juice in the bottle to the last drop.
When, at lunch time, the landowner went to his house, he asked his wife to bring him
food. His wife asked him to wait as the meal was not yet cooked. The landowner,
thinking of the farmer's gift, said to his wife that the chicken and the juice which he
had sent through the servant would be good enough.
He was shocked and angry when his wife told him that she had not seen the servant
since morning.
Without losing a minute, the landowner ran back to his place of work, and there he
found his servant fast asleep. He shouted at the servant to wake him up. Then he
angrily enquired about the farmer's gift.
The servant said, "Oh master, on the way to your house a strong wind blew away the
cloth which covered the bird and it flew off. I was afraid you would punish me, so I
drank the poison which was in the bottle”. “And now," the servant continued, "I am
lying down here waiting for death to come."​
