C. Reading Comprehension and Set Books [11 Marks]


6. Read the following passage and then answer the questions: [7
Marks] Animals that live in the wild are capable of adapting
themselves to the conditions around them, to life in the extremes of
cold and heat, wet or dry climate. They are also well-known to be
greatly stronger than man. However, man has always proved
throughout all times to be the gfeatest authority that has power over
them. In ancient times, man used to hunt
animals to get their meat and skins. In the middle ages, man used to
hunt animals for sport. Kings used to keep animals in their
palaces as companions treated with care and affection.
King Henry, the eighth, kept a large bear in his palace. People
who happened to walk along the River Thames during his reign
might have seen a large white bear walking down the bank of the
river accompanied by a man holding it with a large leather strap. King
Henry was not the first one to keep large pets. Both the Ancient
Egyptians and the Chinese collected animals for pleasure. The
picutres of animals and birds filled their temples and tombs. Birds
and snakes were also popular in Rome. When the Emperor
Augustus defeated his enemies, he was presented a parrot that could
utter "Hail Casear! Victorious leader"
Not only did people at the time keep pets, but they were happy to
see these animals doing strange tricks which entertained them.
Napoleon's wife was said to have an orangutan that sat at her table
wearing a coat.
Nowadays, many people who care much for social position and
for being respected by others usually keep a dog, a cat, a tortoise or
canaries at their homes.
