Q.2.Seen Passage:Read the seen passage and answer the questions that follow.I first saw the leopard when I was crossing the small stream at the bottom ofthe hill. The ravine was so deep that for most of the day it remained in shadow.This encouraged many birds and animals to emerge from cover during thehours of daylight. Few people ever passed that way. As a result, the ravine hadbecome a little haven for wildlife.Below my cottage was a forest of oak and maple and Himalayanrhododendron. A narrow path twisted its way down through the trees. At thebottom of the hill, a path led onto a grassy verge surrounded by wild dog rose.The streams ran close by the verge, tumbling over smooth pebbles.Nearly every morning, I heard the cry of the barking deer. Isaw pine martens and a handsome red fox. I recognized the footprints of abear. As I had not come to take anything from the jungle, the birds and animalssoon grew accustomed to my face. After some time, my approach did notdisturb them.The langurs in the oak and rhododendron trees, who at first would goleaping through the branches at my approach did not disturb them, nowwatched me with some curiosity as they munched up the tender green shootsof the oak.(1)Q1. Where is the story set and describe in detail the setting of the story given in the passage? |
