Passage 1
Read the
passage given below and answer the following questions.
Once upon a
time, not so very long ago, there was a small boy called Hari. Although he
wasn’t very big, he was strong, and he loved to tease all the boys and girls
who went to school with him. What he loved to do most was to pinch. He could
make a big bruise appear in half a second. Another trick he played was pricking
people with a pin.
So you can
guess how all the children hated him. They tried pinching him back, but that
was no good because he could always pinch harder. They didn’t like telling
their teacher, because that was telling tales.

Passage 2
Read the
passage given below and answer the following questions.
It so happened
that the class went for a picnic to the seaside for a whole day. All the
children were most excited.
On that day,
the sun shone bright, and all the children were wild with excitement. They
crowded into the train and sat down- but nobody wanted to sit next to Hari
because he always pinched.
When they
arrived at the seaside, out jumped all the children with a shout of joy. Down
to the sands they raced, hand in hand – but nobody took Hari’s hand. Nobody
went near him.
Hari was angry.
He went to a sandy corner near a rocky pool and sat down by himself. He took
out his lunch and looked at it. It was a good lunch. There were two hard-boiled
eggs, six jam sandwiches, three pieces of bread and butter, a ginger cake, and
a bar chocolate. He would eat it all by himself. He wouldn’t offer anything to
anyone!
