READING COMPREHENSION (SEEN)

1. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:
   When the family has finished tea, and gathers round the fire, the cat casually goes out of the room. True life now begins for him. He saunters down his own backyard springs to the top of the fence, drops lightly down to the other side. He trots across and skips to the roof of an empty shed. His movement becomes lithe and pantherlike. He looks keenly from side to side and moves noiselessly, for he has so many enemies
   -dogs and small boys with stones,
   On top of the shed, the cat arches his back and rakes his claws once or twice through
   the soft bark of the old roof. He stretches himself a few times to see if every muscle is in full working order. Then, drooping his head nearly to his paws, he sends across a call to his kindred. Before long they come, gliding, graceful shadows. No longer are they the meek creatures who an hour ago were mewing for fish and milk. They are now grim fighters.
   Just think how much more he gets out of his life than you do out of yours! And the sports they have, too ! As they get older they go in for sport to the suburban backyards. These backyards that are dull to us, are to them hunting grounds where they ve more gallant adventure than King Arthur’s knights ever had.
