Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow.
"How can I," said the Camel, "with this hump on my back?"
"That has a purpose," said the Djinn, "all because you missed those three days. You will be able to
work now for three days without eating, because you can live on your hump, and don't you ever say I
never did anything for you. Come out of the Desert and go to the Three, and behave." And the Camel
went away to join the Three.
And from that day to this the Camel always wears a hump (we call it 'hump' now, not to hurt his
feelings); but he has never yet caught up with the three days that he missed at the beginning of the
world, and he has never yet learned how to behave.

16. What was the curse given by the Djinn to the camel as a punishment?
17. What is your opinion on the Djinn's decision to punish the camel by giving it a hump?
