Eng-1st Paper -IX

Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions.
Neela went on both tours. She enjoyed herself very much. The fascinating animals of the Night Safari took her breath away. She saw how the night animals become active after a rest. To know about her surrounding, Neela walked leisurely and could see the tigers and hyenas rejoicing in a kill. The faint lighting had the effect of the real Jungle at night. After walking for sometime, Neela sat down. It was a hectic day for her. But never the less, she had enjoyed herself very much. She went on a boat trip in the afternoon. The trip lasted for two and a half hours. She had a free meal that came along with her trip ticket. At lunch time Neela went to the restaurant. A large table was set and there were at least twenty different Singaporean foods served. It was a self service lunch. Neela didn’t know what to do. An old lady explained to her that she could pick any food she liked and that she could take as much as she wanted. Neela had never had food like this before. Neela tasted quite a number of different items. The food was magnificent and highly enjoyable. At the end of the sailing they had tea served with lightly cooked dishes.
