Question

With reference to the passage, consider the following statements:
1. The governess taught the same lesson several times.
2. The governess wanted to complete her teaching work quickly.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

• A. 1 only
• B. 2 only
• C. Both 1 and 2
• D. Neither 1 nor 2

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

1 only

Option A is correct because it is clearly mentioned in the passage that - 'The governess went over the lesson several times, explained the meaning, and for the last time, asked her pupil to read it over.' Thus, only the first statement is correct and Option A is the right answer.

There is no evidence in the passage to suggest that the second statement is correct, hence Options B and C are not the right answers.

Since the first statement is correct, option D is not the right answer.
