DIRECTIONS: You have passages with questions following them. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


In Padua, a beautiful city of Italy there once lived a rich gentleman called Baptista. He had two daughters, the gentle and beautiful Bianca and Katherine. Katherine was as beautiful as her sister, but she had such an ungovernable temper that she was always known as Katherine the Shrew. Everyone was afraid of her angry tongue and inspite of her beautiful face she had no admirers. Katherine was Baptista’s elder daughter and he began to fear that she would never find a husband. Many wanted to marry Bianca but no one was willing to risk marriage with the bad tempered Katherine. At last Baptista decided on a plan. He announced that Katherine must be married before Bianca, as it was the elder sister’s right. Bianca’s admirers at once began to look around for a man who would be brave enough to marry this wild cat. Now in Verona, another Italian town, there lived a rich young man called Petruchio. His father had recently died and left him plenty of money and Petruchio now wished to see the world and find a wife. So he went to Padua and there he met a friend, Hortensis, one of the young men who wanted to marry Bianca. Petruchio told him that he too was looking for a wife and Hortensis at once thought of Katherine the Shrew. Petruchio was a strong willed young man, surely he would be able to make Katherine obey him. He was merry and good tempered too and clever and amusing. Altogether he was wise young man and would know how to tame an ill-tempered wife.
