Q.2.
Seen Passage:
Read the seen passage and answer the questions that follow.
I first saw the leopard when I was crossing the small stream at the bottom of
the hill. The ravine was so deep that for most of the day it remained in shadow.
This encouraged many birds and animals to emerge from cover during the
hours of daylight. Few people ever passed that way. As a result, the ravine had
become a little haven for wildlife.
Below my cottage was a forest of oak and maple and Himalayan
rhododendron. A narrow path twisted its way down through the trees. At the
bottom of the hill, a path led onto a grassy verge surrounded by wild dog rose.
The streams ran close by the verge, tumbling over smooth pebbles.
Nearly every morning, I heard the cry of the barking deer. I
saw pine martens and a handsome red fox. I recognized the footprints of a
bear. As I had not come to take anything from the jungle, the birds and animals
soon grew accustomed to my face. After some time, my approach did not
disturb them.
The langurs in the oak and rhododendron trees, who at first would go
leaping through the branches at my approach did not disturb them, now
watched me with some curiosity as they munched up the tender green shoots
of the oak.
