Read the passage given below and maswer the questions that follow:
1. The orchard stood quietly in the sunlight. The apples were red and enticing. Our guze was fixed on them. Without
losing a moment, the small thieves rushed at the fruits, but the bigger and riper ones were higher up and out of
reach. I promptly told the children to fetch a broken table and a piece of wire from the rubbish dump. Then,
showed them how to fashion the wire into a hook, Two of the taller kids stood on the table, one pulling and the
second picking the fruits. The others passed them down busily enjoying themselves.
2. The small thieves admired my ingenuity. Auntie, you are really great'. They ran around everywhere in
excitement. They screamed and yelled in the midst of the commotion, the children's father suddenly
appeared out of nowhere and caught us unawares. The small thieves lled, leaving me, the gang chief neatly
comered.
3. "So, you have turned into a petty thief", my brother joked, "What if you are arrested?" "Arrested? Me? Do I
look like a thief to you?" I sat up in my wheelchair and, reigning innocence, said, "Am I capable of such an act,
considering my physical condition?" Laughing, my brother pushed me home. I was not really after the apples.
What I was trying to steal was that quality called childhood.
