Question

Q A. Read the given passage carefully and choose the correct option for the given questions: The Inchcape Rock In the North Sea near Scotland is a great rock under the water, called the Inchcape Rock. It lies twelve miles from land. Many boats and ships have been wrecked on that rock, for it is so near the top of the water that no one can sail over it without striking it. More than a hundred years ago there lived a kind man called the Abbot of Aber-brothock. The abbot tied a buoy to the rock with a large bell on top. The buoy floated back and forth in the shallow water, when the waves dashed against it, the bell would ring out loud and clear.Sailors were no longer afraid to cross the sea at that place. When they heard the bell ringing, they knew the rock was and sailed around it. ‘God bless the good Abbor of Aber- brothock! they all said.One calm summer day, a ship with a black flag was passing close by Inchcape Rock. It belonged to a pirate called Ralph the Rover. Ralph looked out upon the sea. He saw the buoy floating above Inchcape Rock like a big black speck upon the water. ‘Boys!’ he cried, ‘take out the boat, and row me to Inchcape Rock. We will play a trick on the old Abbot.’ They reached Inchcape Rock and broke the chain that held the buoy. Ralph cut the ropes of the bell too. It sank into the water with a gurgling sound.‘The next man who comes this way will not bless the Abbot,’ laughed evil Ralph, and sailed away in his black ship. For many days, Ralph travelled on the seas and looted many ships. At last, it was time to sail back home.On the way back,the wind blew hard all day. But in the evening, it died away leaving behind a thick fog. Ralph walked on the ship’s deck. He tried but could not see where the ship was going. ‘I think we are not far from Inchcape Rock. I wish we could hear the good abbot’s bell.’The next moment there was a great crash.‘It is Inchcape rock!’ the sailors cried, as the ship turned to one side and began to sink. ‘Oh. What a wretch I am!’ cried Ralph the Rover. “This is the result of the joke that I played on the good abbot!’ What did he hear as the waves rushed over him? Was it the abbot’s bell, ringing for him from the bottom of the sea?
