ππ Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:
Bruce was a brave king. Once he had to fight against a large army with just a few soldiers. He was defeated. He had to run for his life. Bruce took shelter in a forest cave. He was very depressed. His courage had left him. He was blankly gazing at the ceiling of the cave. An interesting scene captured his attention. A small spider was trying to weave a web across the cave ceiling. As the spider crawled up a thread of the web broke and the spider fell down. But the spider did not give up. He tried to climb again and again. Finally, the spider successfully climbed up and completed the web.
Bruce began to think, “If a small spider can face failure so bravely, why should I give up? I will try with all my might till I win.” This thought gave strength to the defeated king. Bruce got out of the jungle and collected his brave soldiers. He fought against the large army. He was defeated again. But now, he wouldn’t give up his fight. Bruce again and again fought against the large army. Finally after many attempts he defeated the large army and regained his kingdom.
