Comprehension:(Que No. 91 - 99)
Read the passage given below and answer the questions/complete the statements that follow by choosing the most appropriate options out of the given ones.
Lionel was in a bad shape. He was bloodied and beaten. He was too weak to haul his poor, broken little body inside the house. By the time Nola saw him; his battered body had already lost too much blood. Lionel, the duck, died a few minutes later.
When Nola broke the news to her customers, they were devastated. One elderly gentleman was especially heart-broken. He used to feed Lionel a slice of bread or a biscuit which he kept in his pocket especially for the occasion. They would spend an hour every week like that, enjoying each other's company. When he heard about Lionel's death, the old man sat down on the same bench and let the tears run freely down his cheeks. Two weeks later, he was dead.
Nola also had to tell the children who used to play with Lionel on their way to school. Lionel waddled around them, muttering and letting them feel his soft white feathers while they waited for the bus. Some of the children made sympathy cards for Nola. She also received many condolences - a few from friends and many from strangers. It was only then that she realised how many friends Lionel had made; how many hearts he had touched. It seemed as if the whole town was mourning his death.
