Read the passage below and answer questions 1 to 4.

Martin burped loudly at the table. Father chuckled. Grandma shook her head disapprovingly.

"Martin!" His mother growled, eyeing her husband grumpily as well. She had quite had enough of this behavior, and decided to finally fix it. He burped again and then he wiped his mouth on the table cloth. "Man I am so charming!" He chuckled.

"Martin unless you want to do the laundry and you want to start eating out of a dog's bowl, I suggest you find some manners." "Like what? Martin groaned, leaning on the table with both elbows. "Elbows off the table." Martin lifted his elbows and fidgeted with his napkin. "The napkin goes on your lap," mother ordered, "and no eating with your fingers."

Martin sighed and peeking out the corners of his eyes at his mom, he grabbed his spoon and started shoveling food into his mouth with his face about two inches off the plate. Speed eating was fun. He liked to see how much he could get into his mouth at once.

"Whoa there! I had no idea this was a feeding trough," mother laughed. Try using a fork, sitting up and closing your mouth when you chew. If you can't get the fork to your mouth without spilling the food on your lap, you are overloading it."

"Then it takes forever to eat, and I want to go and watch TV." Martin whined. "You will eat properly, and you will stay and have a discussion with us until we are all done with our meals. This is not a
drive-through. Eat slowly and neatly, and then help me wash the dishes."
"But..." Martin began to protest.
"Dog bowl?" Mother offered.

"No, thank you." Martin said softly, which made grandma smile. Mother smiled when Martin lifted a carefully -loaded fork of food to his mouth closed. "Excellent. You might still make someone a good husband." Father cleared his throat and ate neatly, too. He didn't get a complement though.

Questions 

  1. Which one of the following activities did Martin not do while eating?
    1. Leaning on the table with both elbows.
    2. Spilling the food on his lap.
    3. Eating everyone's food.
    4. Burping loudly at the table.
  2. What shows that Martin learnt a lesson? He
    1. lifted a carefully loaded fork of food to his mouth closed.
    2. lifted his elbows and fidgeted with a napkin.
    3. used the table cloth to wipe his mouth.
    4. burped at the table.
  3. Why was Martin complemented? He
    1. started practicing some manners
    2. helped his mother to wash some dishes
    3. peeked out the corners of his eyes at his mom
    4. had a discussion with the family.
  4. Which proverb can best summarize the story?
    1. All work without play makes Jack a dull boy.
    2. Courtesy costs nothing. 
    3. Prevention is better than cure.
    4. Every cloud has a silver lining.

One day my mother whipped me for not taking my chores seriously. I did not clean the house properly and when she returned from the market, where she had gone to sell grocery, she could not spare me. After that, I sadly retreated to my bed and soon I was deeply asleep.

I then ran away into a very deep wilderness home far away from my parents. It was so peaceful and tranquil. For once my mother would not be there with her do's and don'ts. My life would have no sadness of any kind or so I thought.

Things however changed one afternoon when strong winds accompanied by lightning struck the ground several times. All the living things I had lived with for months retreated to their respective abodes. Rodents were the first to leave for their holes. Birds complained that their homes were being shaken and
flew away to different homes elsewhere. I was left alone and the worst happened. The final lightning
struck my home setting it ablaze

For the first time in my life I longed for home, our nice home where everyone was present. I had no choice but to go home. It took a while but as I was about to reach home my mother shook me up! I was
almost late for school.
