Question

Read the story and answer the following questions.

This is the story of a man who thought that he had the right to do whatever he liked. One day, this gentleman was walking along a busy road, spinning his walking-stick round and round in his hand, and was trying to look important. A man walking behind him objected.

“You ought not to spin your walking stick round and round like that!” he said.



“I am free to do what I like with my walking stick,” argued the gentleman.



‘Of course, you are,” said the other man, “but you ought to know that your freedom ends where my nose begins.”
