Passage:
In Delhi, it was forbidden by the law, at one time, to take a Dog into a public vehicle.One day a lady, accompanied by a pet dog, entered a bus. Wishing to evade the law, she placed her tiny dog in her dress pocket. It so happened that the person next to this lady was a pickpocket;and during the journey he carefully placed his hand into her pocket in search of her purse. Great was the horror to find instead a pair of sharp teeth inserted into his fingers. His exclamation of pain and surprise drew the attention of other passengers to him
Why did the pick-pocket exclaim with pain ?
- AHe was hit by the lady
- BHe was caught by the fellow passengers
- CHe was bitten by the dog
- DHe fell of the bus
Explanation
The pickpocket put his hand into the lady's pocket expecting her purse and found 'a pair of sharp teeth inserted into his fingers': the hidden dog bit him. He was not hit by the lady (a), caught by passengers (b), and he did not fall off the bus (d). Hence (c) is correct.
