Answer 1

The correct option is C Both A and B

The correct answer is Option C.

The animals had to elect a new king.

They chose the monkey as their king because he used to amuse them with his tricks.

It has been clearly mentioned in the story that the fox was disappointed because he also wanted to become the king (Option A) and he was not chosen by the animals (option B).

Thus Option 'C' (Both 'A and B') is the correct answer.
