Read the story given below and answer the questions that follow.

An old man, who lived in the city, had to put up with the nuisance of having boys play cricket in
the street outside his house. The boys played under the streetlights at night. One evening, when
the boys were particularly noisy, he could not sleep. So he went out to talk to them. He
explained that he was very happy whenever he could see or hear boys playing his favourite
game, cricket. He said he would give them Rs 25 each week to play on the street at night. The
boys were thrilled.

They were being paid to do something they enjoyed! At the end of the first week, they knocked at
the old man’s house and asked to be paid. He did so. The second week, when they asked for
payment, he said he had run out of money and sent them away with only Rs 15. The boys were
very disappointed, but there was not much they could do about it. The fourth week, the man said
he could not afford to pay them Rs 25 as he had promised but would give them Rs 5 each week
without fail. This payment was too little for the boys.

“You expect us to play seven days a week for a measly Rs 5!” they yelled. The boys then
stormed away and never played on the street again.

11 During which part of the day did the boys play cricket?

A in the morning
B in the afternoon
C in the evening
D in the night

12 Where did the boys play?

A inside the old man's house
B in the playground near the old man's house
C in the street outside the old man's house
D in the street outside the school

13 How much money did the old man promise to give the boys in the beginning when he made the
deal?

A Rs 25 every week
B Rs 15 every week
C Rs 10 every week
D Rs 5 every week

14 What did the old man really want from the boys?

A He wanted them to play cricket on all the days of the week.
B He wanted them to practice more and thus improve their game.
C He wanted them to stop playing cricket near his house at night.
D He wanted them to start earning while doing something they liked.
