Solution

The correct option is D They gave him grains to eat.
Let's read the passage to find out how the ants helped the cricket. The second last sentence of the passage helps us in understanding our answer - 'He would surely have died of hunger if it had not been for the generous ants who had given him some of their grain'.
Option C - Looking at the sentence, we can easily understand that the ants gave the cricket some grains, hence, option C is the correct answer. - 'They gave him some grains to eat'.
Option A - The passage doesn't state that 'they gave him shelter', hence option A is incorrect.
Option B - The passage doesn't state that 'they gave him water', they only gave him some grains, hence option B is incorrect.
Option D - It's an incorrect choice as option C is the answer.
