Question

Paragraph -
One morning, Jack woke up early. He was taking old Betsy, the cow, to the market
that day. He hoped to make a bundle from some old fool. On his way to the
market, Jack spotted Uncle Ned heading in the same direction. Uncle Ned was
the oldest man in the whole village. “Great” thought Jack, “I can get rid of Betsy
even before I reach the market!” Jack stuck up a conversation with Uncle Ned. To
his disappointment, the old man intended to buy chickens. He was adamant
about not buying Jack’s cow. However, just as they reached the market, Jack
managed to relieve Uncle Ned of his bulging purse. The old man never even
noticed Jack’s deft fingers at work!
