Question

Q.1) Read the given passage carefully and attempt the questions. (12 Marks). ‘What do you want me to do for you Peter Crouch?’ she said a little sourly. ‘Let me stay here a bit. Is there nowhere you can put me till they’ve gone?’ ‘Who’s they?’ ‘The keepers.’ ‘Oh you’ve had a quarrel with the keepers, have you?’ ‘Yes. I was down by Cinder Wood seeing if l could pick up anything, and the keepers found me. There were four to one, so I used my gun.’ ‘‘Then I ran for it. They’re after me; they can’t be far off now.’’Mrs Adis did not speak for a moment. Crouch looked at her beseechingly.‘You might do it for Tom's sake,’ he said.‘You haven't been an over-good friend to Tom’, snapped Mrs. Adis.‘But Tom’s been a very good friend to me; he would want you to stand by me tonight.’‘Well, I won’t say he wouldn’t, for Tom always thought better of you than you deserved. Maybe you can stay till he comes home to-night, then we can hear what he says about it.’ ‘He’ll be up at work for an hour yet, and the coast will be clear by then - l can get away out of the country.’ ‘Where’ll you go?’ ‘I don’t know. There is time to think of that.’ ‘Well! You can think of it in here, she said dryly, opening a door which led from the kitchen into the small shed at the back of the cottage. They’ll never guess you’re there, specially if I tell them I haven’t seen you tonight.’ ‘You’re a good woman, Mrs. Adis. I know I’m not worth your standing by me, but may be l’d have been different if I’d a mother like Tom’s.’ She did not speak, but shut the door, and he was in darkness save for a small ray of light that came through one of the cracks. By this light he could see her moving to and fro, preparing Tom’s supper. In another hour Tom would be home from lronlatch Farm, where he worked every day. Peter Crouch trusted Tom to help him, for they had been friends when they went together to the National School at Lamberhurst, and since then the friendship had not been broken by their very different characters and careers.
