Q.1 Read the passage given below and answer the questions
that follow:
The most beautiful humming birds are found in the West
Indies and South America. The crest of the tiny head of one
of these shines like a sparkling crown of coloured light. The
shades of colour that adorn its breast are equally brilliant. As
the bird flits from one object to another, it looks more like a
bright flash of sunlight than it does like a living being. But,
you ask, why are they called humming birds? It is because
they make a soft, humming noise by the rapid motion of their
wings-a motion so rapid, that as they fly, you can hardly
see that they have wings. One day when walking in the
woods, I found the nest of one of the smallest humming
birds. It was about half the size of a very small hen and lays
egg, and it was attached to a twig no thicker than a steel
knitting needle. It seemed to have been made of cotton fibres
and was covered with the softest bits of leaf and bark. It had
two eggs in it, and each was about as large as a small
sugarplum. When you approach the spot where one of these
birds has built its nest, it is necessary to be careful. The
mother bird will dart at you and try to peck your eyes. Its
sharp beak may hurt your eyes most severely and even
destroy your sight. The poor little thing knows no other way
of defending its young, and instinct teaches it that you might
carry off its nest if you find it.
