Q4. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:

Four men once came to a wet place in the roadless forest to fish. They pitched their tent upon the rocks. They ate the last bit of bread and cake. Immediately a little man volunteered to stay and hold the camp while the remaining three would go to a farmhouse for supplies. They gazed at him and said: " There's only one of us‐--the devil will make a twin."
The little man sat close to the campfire. Suddenly he heard the approach of the unknown, crackling the twigs and rustling the dead leaves. The little man arose slowly to his feet, his pipe dropped from his mouth, his knees smote each other. "Hah!"he bellowed hoarsely in menace. A growl was replied and a bear paced into the light of the fire.
