Read the following passage carefully. The bear became very attached to our two Alsatian dogs and to all the children of the tenants living in our bungalow. He was left quite free when he was young. He spent his time playing, running into the kitchen, and going to sleep on our beds.One day an accident befell him. I had placed poison (barium carbonate) to kill the rats and mice in my library. Bruno entered the library and he ate some of the poison. He could not stand on his feet. I guessed what had happened. I rushed in the car to the vet’s residence. The vet searched his medical books and found the medicine for the poison. Bruno grew weak and vomited. The vet gave three shots of injections. After thirty minutes, Bruno looked at us disdainfully, as much as to say, ‘What’s barium carbonate to a big black bear like me?’ (The Bond of Love) Now, answer the following questions. 1. Who did the bear very attach to?2. How did the bear spond his time?3. Why did the speaker keep the poison in the library?4. What was guessed by the author?5. How was the bear at last?
