Posting test questions to cheat is a violation of your honor code. The two students in my class who have already posted from here have received '0' on this test.
1. Why is there no charity in Mithila?
A.) No one in the country is need of it.
To quote the story: "There was no charity in [this] country since there was no one to receive it."
2. Why does Sita feel ill after seeing Rama?
C.) She has fallen in love with him.
Sita spends paragraphs talking about how lovely Rama is. "She paused to watch Rama slowly pass out of view, along with his sage-master and brother. The moment he vanished, her mind became uncontrollably agitated. The eye had admitted a slender shaft of love, which later expanded and spread into her whole being. She felt ill." The narrator also outright states that love has entered her entire being, causing her to fall ill.
3. In the village described in “My Father Writers to My Mother,” when a woman speaks about her husband, it is customary for her to refer to him as
C.) “him.”
As the story says, "Whenever my mother spoke of my father, she, in common with all the women in her town, simply used the personal pronoun in Arabic corresponding to “him.”"
4. As the story opens, Abboud Bey is
D.) visiting the club.
The story outright states he is at the club. "The coloured bulbs fixed to the trees in the garden of the club at the far end of the town stood out against the surrounding darkness. Somewhere over there her husband now sat, most likely engrossed in a game of chess."
5. Samia’s father is a
A.) clerk.
As is said in the story, her father is a clerk. "Who had told him that Mr. Mahmoud Barakat, a mere clerk at the Court of Appeal, had a beautiful daughter of good reputation?"
6. How does Samia first indicate to her husband that she has found the ring?
B.) She raises her hand to show it to him.
As the story says, the first thing she does is show it to him on her hand. "At the sound of the screech of tyres rounding the house to the garage, she slipped the ring onto her finger. As he entered she stood up and raised her hand to show him the ring."
Choose the correct form of the pronoun in parentheses.
7. (Who, Whom) are you going to the park with?
B.) Whom
Who is a subject, and whom is an object, so I believe "Whom" is correct here.
True or False
8. The following sentence contains sensory description: As I bit into the apple, the juice dripped down my chin and through my fingers.
A.) true
This describes what the narrator physically feels, so it appeals to the sense of touch.
Most of these are answerable just by reading the story carefully. Extra analysis isn't even necessary. Always remember to consult your textbooks when asked for simple details about a story.
