Directions (Q. 41 to 50) Read the following passage carefully and answer the
questions given below it.
Once upon a time, there lived a robber in a village. One day, he stole a
temple bell and ran towards the forest. A Tiger heard the jingle of the bell and
became curious to locate the sound. As soon as he saw the robber, he jumped
upon him and killed him at once. The bell fell on the ground. After a few days, a
group of monkeys passed through that way. They spotted the bell and carried it to
their home in the forest.
They found the jingle of the bell very interesting. Subsequently every one of
them became very fond of the bell and started playing with it. After every tiring
day, the monkeys would sit on the top of a hill in the forest in the night and enjoy
the melodious sound of the bell. The people of the village were afraid of the noise.
Soon afterwards, the people from the village found the body of the robber and
proclaimed, Certainly there is an evil spirit around here that kills human beings
and then rings the bell to celebrate.
When the people heard this, they thought that a demon was haunting their
village. Without giving any second thought, people started leaving the village in
terror and settling in a new place. However, there was an intelligent and bold
woman in that village. She thought to herself, I dont believe that a demon is
haunting this village. I will find out who is ringing the bell. Late in the night, she
went into the forest bravely and found that a group of monkeys was playing about
and ringing the bell.
Now as the woman knew the secret of the bell, she went to the King and
said, Your Majesty ! Im sure there is no evil spirit in the village and the cause of
all the trouble lies somewhere else. If you grant me some money, I will get rid of
it and bring happiness to the village. The King, who was also terrified of the hoax
that prevailed in the village, granted the request of the woman.
The woman bought as much peas, groundnuts and fruits with that money as
she could. She went into the forest, made a circle under a tree on the ground,
placed all the eatables and hid herself at some distance. She kept a watch on the
monkeys from a distance.
As and when the monkeys saw the eatables, they dropped the bell just as
the old woman had expected of them. They ran to pick the eatables. The woman
picked up the bell quickly and rushed towards the village. She gave the bell in the
court of the King. The King was happy with the brave woman and everyone in the
village admired her bravery. The pleased King rewarded the woman for her bravery.
Since that day there was no sound of the bell in the village. People returned to
their village and lived happily ever after.
What did the group of monkeys do with the bell?
(1) They used it to scare away the villagers
(2) They enjoyed its pleasant sound every night
(3) They returned it to the temple
(4) They gave it to the king as they feared him
(5) None
