Directions for Question
Read the passage and answer the questions given below it
No one can look back on his schooldays and say with truth that they were altogether unhappy. I have good memories of
St Cyprian's, among a horde of bad ones. Sometimes on summer afternoons there were wonderful expeditions across
the Downs to a village called Birling Gap, or to Beachy Head, where one bathed dangerously among the boulders and
came home covered with cuts. And there were still more wonderful mid-summer evenings when, as a special treat, we
were not driven off to bed as usual but allowed to wander about the grounds in the long twilight, ending up with a
plunge into the swimming bathe at about nine o'clock. There was the joy of waking early on summer mornings and
getting in an hour's undisturbed reading (Ian Hay, Thackeray, Kipling and H. G. Wells were the favourite authors of my
boyhood) in the sunlit, sleeping dormitory. There was also cricket, which I was no good at but with which I conducted a
sort of hopeless love affair up to the age of about eighteen. And there was the pleasure of keeping caterpillars — the
silky green and purple puss moth, the ghostly green poplar-hawk, the privet-hawk, large as one's third finger,
specimens of which could be illicitly purchased for sixpence at a shop in the town — and, when one could escape long
enough from the master who was ‘taking the walk’, there was the excitement of dredging the dew-ponds on the Downs
for enormous newts with orange coloured bellies. This business of being out for a walk, coming across something of
fascinating interest and then being dragged away from it by a yell from the master, like a dog jerked onwards by the
leash, is an important feature of school life, and helps to build up the conviction, so strong in many children, that the
things you most want to do are always unattainable.
