Read the following passage given below and Answer the question. A girl was standing on the veranda porch, looking at me very seriously. When I saw her, I sat up in bed with a start. 'Can I do anything for you'? With great assurance she said, 'Yes, but I can stay on my own'. 'You're like me,' I said, and for a while, forgot about being an old man of twenty. 'I like to be on my own but I'm going away today'. 'Oh,'she said, a little breathlessly. 'Would you care to go to England'? 'I want to go everywhere,' she said. To America and Africa and Japan and Honolulu'. 'Maybe you will,' I said, 'I'm going everywhere and no one can stop me... But what is it you want what did you come for' ? 'I want some flowers but I can't reach them she waved her hand towards the garden, that tree ... see' ? |
