His eyes brightened at the sight of the plump donkey, and he thought of the fine meal in store for him. But just as the lion was about to pounce on the donkey, the rooster began to crow. Now, it is said that nothing a lion hates more than the sound of a cock-a-doodle-doo. Perhaps, it is true, for the lion turned fled at the sound of the rooster’s crowing. The donkey laughed. “Why, the lion is a coward! The mighty king of beasts runs from a rooster.” And donkey felt so bold that he began to chase the lion. He had not gone very far, however, when the lion turned. With a great roar, he
leapt

The cricket feel sorry for the ants because they were ___________.
Report Question
0%
Working hard
0%
Not working
0%
Looking at the wheat
0%
None of these
Explanation
The given sentence is a part of the second sentence of the passage. 'He felt extremely sorry for the ants, who worked ceaselessly...', here, 'ceaselessly' means continuously, hard work. None of the options have the word 'ceaselessly' hence we must find the synonyms.
Option A - 'The cricket feel sorry for the ants because they were working hard.' 'Working hard' is a synonym of ceaselessly, it also means to work continuously/non-stop.
Option B - As the passage clearly states that the ants worked ceaselessly (nonstop/worked hard), hence we can't say that they were 'not working'.
Option C is incorrect, as the ants were not looking at the wheat, they were looking for the wheat. However, the cricket did not feel sorry for the ants because they were looking for the wheat, he felt sorry because they were working hard.
Option D is incorrect as option A is the correct answer.

Option A: As mentioned, "Hollywood cowboy movies cast their actors in Levi's", but the overalls did not become a symbol of the actors. Hence option A is incorrect.
Option B: Similarly, 'some people' were under the impression that jeans were 'worker's clothes'. It isn't mentioned any where that were a symbol of the workers. Hence B is incorrect.

0%
None of the above.
Explanation
Option C: It's mentioned in the line "...the farmer... was astonished at what he saw. With every shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey... would... take a step up on the dirt as it piled up."
'Astonished at what he saw' refers to the amazing scene.
Option C is hence, correct.
Option A: The donkey quieted down to "everyone's amazement". But, this does not refer to the 'amazing scene'. 'Amazement' here refers to everyone's reaction, it does not refer to the scene itself. Hence A is incorrect.

Report Question
0%
In the 18th century.
0%
In the United States.
0%
Before the US Gold Rush.
0%
In America after 1850.
Explanation
Option D: As these lines suggest, "It all began in the Nevada region of the United States. In the 1850s", jeans were born in America after 1850 (as 1850s means any year after the year 1850). Hence option D is correct.
Option A: The 18th century includes the years 1701-1800. It does not include the year 1850, which is a part of the 19th century. Hence A is incorrect.
Option B: This option mentions the place (where) but not the date (when). Hence B isn't the most suitable option.
Option C: This statement is false. It was during the Gold Rush, and not before, that jeans was born: "In the 1850s, there were many people searching for gold and mining for it. This was called the Gold Rush."

0%
Taking pictures was not fashionable.
0%
There were lot of adjustments to be made.
0%
Taking selfies was the latest trend.
Explanation
While smartphones and digital cameras have made selfies quite popular, the first self-portrait is said to have been taken in 1839 by Robert Cornelius who was considered a pioneer in photography. Taking pictures was no child's play in those days. The whole process was so slow that Cornelius had time to uncover the lens, run into the shot and then go back to cover the lens." - this statement from the passage indicates that taking a photo in the 19th century was a long process and there were a lot of adjustments to be made. And before the invention of smart phones, even though cameras and photography were much more developed than the 19th century, it was just as difficult to take a selfie in the early 20th century as there were a lot of adjustments to make. Option C is the best answer here.

0%
They don't have time.
0%

0%
They always have a headache.
Explanation
Option C: The line says: Ask people why they procrastinate and... "I'm a perfectionist. Everything has to be just right before I can get down to work."
The words "everything has to be just right" means the same as 'things have to be in order'. This option states the same thing, worded differently. Hence C is correct.
Option A: This does not state the excuses for why people procrastinate (according to the passage). Also, the sentence mentioned here is quite the opposite of why people procrastinate. People who delay work don't intend to finish the work soon. Hence A is incorrect.
Option B: This is not mentioned anywhere in the passage. Hence B is incorrect.
Option D: The line "I can't work when I have a headache." does not mean that the person always has a headache. It is one of the excuses given, but not something that happens all the time. Hence D is incorrect.

Report Question
0%

0%
Stay alive endlessly
0%
Be liked by many forever
0%
Show no wear and tear
Explanation
Options A and C: According to the line "denim is one of the oldest fabrics but will remain eternally young", the phrase 'eternally young' means that jeans would be a favourite of many for an eternity.
The phrase 'eternally young' on its own refers to everlasting youth or 'remaining young always'. But, in the context of this passage, option C is more suitable, i.e., 'be liked by many forever'. Hence C is the correct option and A is incorrect.
Option B: This phrase gives the meaning of 'eternal' alone, it does not state the meaning of the phrase 'eternally young'. Hence B is incorrect.
Option D: This states a feature of the jeans, but it does not give the meaning of 'eternally young'. Hence D is also incorrect.

Before that, people were usually taking their pictures by standing in front of a mirror. But now they just had to extend Their hand and viola!

Plus, the passage also adds that selfies were made more popular by social media sites. From the given choices, option B is the best answer.

Option C also says the same thing, hence it's the correct option.
Option A: This sentence is not mentioned nor implied in the passage.
Options B and D: Similarly, these lines aren't mentioned as well.
Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.

0%
None of the above
Explanation
Option B: As it's mentioned in the passage, "But each trouble can be a stepping stone.", this line is the moral of the given passage. It means that every trouble that comes your way, can be used as a means to achieve something greater. Hence option B is correct.
Option A: This line is also mentioned in the passage, "Life is going to shovel dirt on you", but it is not the real moral here.
A moral is a 'lesson that can be derived from a story or experience'.
The line in A states a fact, it does not present the lesson itself. Hence A is incorrect.
Option C: These words have differed in meaning from the original line: "We can get out of the deepest wells by not giving up."
It does not mean that one must fall into a well to succeed in life.
Hence C is incorrect.
Option D is incorrect because the answer lies in B.
