Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions. The King of Kanchi set off to conquer Karnat. He was victorious in batttle. The elephants were laden with sandalwood, ivory, gold and precious stones taken from the conquered kingdom of Karnat. They would be a part of the victory parade for his subjects. On his way back home he stopped at a temple, finished his prayers to the goddess and turned to leave. Around his neck was a garland of scarlet hibiscus and as was the custom for all, his forehead was anointed with red sandal paste. His Minister and the court jester were his only companions. At one spot, in a mango grove by the wayside, they spied some children play. The King said, "Let me go and see what they are playing." The children had lined up two rows of clay dolls and were playing warriors and battles. The King asked, "Who is fighting whom ?" They said, "Karnat is at battle with Kanchi." The King asked, "Who is winning and who is the loser ?" The children puffed their chests up and said, "Karnat will win and Kanchi will lose." The Minister froze in disbelief, the King was furious and the jester burst into laughter. The King was soon joined by his troops and the children were still immersed in their game. The King commanded, "Cane them hard." The children's parents came running from the nearby village and said, "They are naive, it was just a game, please grant them pardon." The King called his commander and ordered, "Teach these children and the village a lesson so that they never forget the King of Kanchi." He went back to his camp. That evening the Commander stood before the King. He bowed low in shame and said, "Your Majesty, with the exception of hyenas and vultures, all lie silent in the village." The Minister said, "His Majesty's honour has been saved." The priest said, "The goddess has blessed our King." The jester said, "Your Highness, please grant me leave to go now." The King asked, "But why ?" The jester said, "I cannot kill, I cannot maim, I can only laugh at God's gift of life." Trembling in the face of the king's anger he bravely continued, "If I stay in your Majesty's court, I shall become like you and I shall forget how to laugh."Why were the elephants carrying loads of gold and other valuables ?
This was what the king had looted from Karnat to distribute among his soldiers as a reward
This was the king's offering to the deity out of gratitude for making him victorious
It was what the king had plundered from Karnat to display to the people of his kingdom as a sign of victory
So that the people of the kingdom of Karnat acknowledged him as their new ruler

As a mark of celebration to show he had been victorious
It was the usual practice for all devotees at the temple
To show other devotees that he was king
The priest requested him to do so
To show his soldiers that he had visited the temple

The Minister said, "His Majesty's honour has been saved." The priest said, "The goddess has blessed our King." The jester said, "Your Highness, please grant me leave to go now." The King asked, "But why ?" The jester said, "I cannot kill, I cannot maim, I can only laugh at God's gift of life." Trembling in the face of the king's anger he bravely continued, "If I stay in your Majesty's court, I shall become like you and I shall forget how to laugh."Which of the following is true in the context of the passage ?
The king stopped at the temple to see what else could be plundered
The people of the village to which the children belonged developed great respect for the king
The Commander was ashamed at having obeyed the king's orders to cane the children
The jester was unhappy that the king had defeated the army of Karnat
The children had shown disrespect to the goddess by playing so close to the temple
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words have been printed in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions. The King of Kanchi set off to conquer Karnat. He was victorious in batttle. The elephants were laden with sandalwood, ivory, gold and precious stones taken from the conquered kingdom of Karnat. They would be a part of the victory parade for his subjects. On his way back home he stopped at a temple, finished his prayers to the goddess and turned to leave. Around his neck was a garland of scarlet hibiscus and as was the custom for all, his forehead was anointed with red sandal paste. His Minister and the court jester were his only companions. At one spot, in a mango grove by the wayside, they spied some children play. The King said, "Let me go and see what they are playing." The children had lined up two rows of clay dolls and were playing warriors and battles. The King asked, "Who is fighting whom ?" They said, "Karnat is at battle with Kanchi." The King asked, "Who is winning and who is the loser ?" The children puffed their chests up and said, "Karnat will win and Kanchi will lose." The Minister froze in disbelief, the King was furious and the jester burst into laughter. The King was soon joined by his troops and the children were still immersed in their game. The King commanded, "Cane them hard." The children's parents came running from the nearby village and said, "They are naive, it was just a game, please grant them pardon." The King called his commander and ordered, "Teach these children and the village a lesson so that they never forget the King of Kanchi." He went back to his camp. That evening the Commander stood before the King. He bowed low in shame and said, "Your Majesty, with the exception of hyenas and vultures, all lie silent in the village." The Minister said, "His Majesty's honour has been saved." The priest said, "The goddess has blessed our King." The jester said, "Your Highness, please grant me leave to go now." The King asked, "But why ?" The jester said, "I cannot kill, I cannot maim, I can only laugh at God's gift of life." Trembling in the face of the king's anger he bravely continued, "If I stay in your Majesty's court, I shall become like you and I shall forget how to laugh."Why did the jester resign from his post ?
He felt that the king was too influenced by the Minister
To show that he disapproved of the king's action of punishing the children
He did not want to accompany the king on his war campaign
He was no longer able to make the king laugh
