Answer the question about the following passage:

Aladdin showed his mother the dusty old lamp. "Perhaps we can sell it if we polish it up first," she said. When Aladdin set to work polishing the lamp, a genie appeared! "I am the spirit of the lamp! Command, and I obey." Delighted, Aladdin asked the genie for food, and a feast appeared. Aladdin began to dream of the wonderful things he could do with the help of the genie. He would ask for new clothes, a big house to live in, and camels to ride.

How can you tell that Aladdin and his mother are poor?

Read the selection and answer the question.

How can I describe the creature that I have taken such pains to form? He was horrifying in every way. So wild were my thoughts that I seemed to see him everywhere. When at last I encountered him again, he said, "Remember, you have made me bigger and more powerful than you. Do not try to harm me. Be kind to me, as you should. Remember that I am your creature. I ought to be your son, but you rejected me for no reason. I was once good and kind, but everywhere I went people hated and feared me because of my hideous appearance. Misery has made me evil."

Which of the following does NOT describe the monster?

Margaret was a simple lady who lived in a village with her husband, Robert. They had a daughter named Amy. Everyday at sunrise, Margaret would wake up cook, clean and feed the cattle. Robert would milk the cows and then take the dogs for a long walk. Amy would study, help her mother for sometime and then get ready for school.

Amy studied in a school, which was far away from her house. But she loved going to school. She went with her friends, Ingrid and Rebecca. They would walk together chatting, laughing and singing songs as they went. They had to cross a river on the way. The only way they could cross it was by walking on a narrow bridge.

One day Margaret, Robert and Amy, and her friends were walking on the narrow bridge one behind the other. Amy and her friends were off to school; as usual. Margaret and Robert wanted to go to the market on other side of the river to buy some groceries for the house.

As they were crossing the narrow bridge Rebecca who was right at the back slipped on the narrow bridge. She gave a frightened scream, clutching hold of Ingrid who was in front of her. Both of them lost their balance and fell into the river. Amy clutched her mother in fright. For a moment, she hesitated, and then threw herself into the river after her friends determined to save them.

Margaret screamed, and Robert jumped into the river. Some passers-by also jumped into the river and rescued the children, who were dripping wet, and shivering with fright.

That night, Robert patted his daughter Amy, and said, “You are a brave girl Amy, I’m proud of you."

In this story, Amy was scared but she jumped into the river. What caused Amy to ignore her fear?
