Test IV: General English

Directions (Q. 141-150): Read the following passage

carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain

words are printed in bold to help you locate them while

answering some of the questions.

In a village by the Ganges, there once lived a Brahmin.

He was a religious and God-fearing man. He earned his living

by performing prayers in other people's home. One day the

Brahmin was called to the neighbouring village to perform

some ceremony. In return for his services, he received a

goat as a present.

The Brahmin was very pleased and he set off for home

with a goat on his shoulders. He thought to himself, "This

was a generous family, to have given me a goat. My wife

and children will be very pleased." As he walked down the

path to his village he did not notice that he was being

followed by three thieves. "We have to get that plump goat,"

said the first thief. "It will make a great dinner for us," said

the second thief. "We need to think of a plan fast," said the

third. The three thieves then decided to fool the Brahmin.

The first thief approached the Brahmin, saying "Dear

Brahmin, you are a holy man. Why are you carrying a dirtydog on your shoulders?" "A dirty dog," can't you see that

it is a poor little goat. Are you blind ?" said the Brahmin

angrily. The first thief laughed and walked away.

The Brahmin looked at the goat. Indeed, it was a goat,

and so he resumed hisjourney homeward. Alittle further down

the path, the Brahmin came across the second thief. The

second thief said in astonishment, "You are a holy man, why

are you carrying a dead calf on your shoulde rs?" The Brahmin

said furiously, "This is a live goat and not a dead calf."

The Brahmin had barely walked some distance when

the third thief cam e. Waving his arm toward s the Brahmi n,

he said, "Dro p that donkey at once. If peopl e see you

carrying a donkey on your shoulders, what will they think of you ?" By now the Brahmi n was very confused. Thr ee

different people had told him that he was carrying an animal

other than a goat. Something must be wrong, he thought.

"This is not a goat; this must be some monster that keeps

changing its form." The terrified Brahmin threw the goat

and ran home as fast as he could.

The three thieves had a great laugh. They had

succeeded in their plan. They picked up the goat and left.

How foolish the Brahmin had been to have believed them!
