Q) Read the passage carefully and answer the questions given below it.
One cold night, two poor, ragged and hungry boys met a gentleman who gave them each what he thought to be a ten-paise coin. The boys found that the old man had made a mistake as soon as they reached a shop. One of them said “Look, the silly old man has given me a rupee instead of ten paise. I shall have a good time until it is spent”. The other boy who found that he had also received a rupee instead of a ten-paise coin said, “You don’t suppose that the gentleman really meant to give us these, do you”? He was sure that the old gentleman had made a mistake in the dark “Of course”, replied his friend, “and when he finds it out, he won’t find me”. The other boy, who was honest, would not touch the money but his friend spent it. The next morning the boy returned the coin to the gentleman, which pleased the old man so much that he offered the boy, who returned the coin, a job.
