Question

Q3. Read the extracts given below and attempt ANY ONE by answering the questions that follow.
(5x1)
A.
The following Sunday Lencho came a bit earlier than usual to ask if there was a letter for him. It was the postean
himsel: who handed the letter to him while the postmaster, experiencing the contentment of a man who was
performed
a good deed, looked on from his office.
Lencho showed not the slightest surprise on seeing the money; such was his confidence - but he became angry
when he counted the money. God could not have made a mistake, nor could he have denied Lencho what he had
requested
Immediately, Lencho went up to the windlay to ask for paper and ink. On the public welting-table, he started to
write, with much wrinkling of his brow, caused by the effort he had to make to express his ideas. When he finished,
he went to the window to buy a stamp which he licked and then affixed to the envelope with a blow of his fist. The
moment the letter fell into the mallbox the postmaster went to open it. It sald: "God: Of the money that I asked for,
only seventy esos reached me. Send me the rest, since I need it very much. But don't send it to me through the
mail because the post office employees are a bunch of crooks. Lengho."
