Scoflight Scholarship Test 2023

Read the passage carefully and ans the following questions:

When Thomas was fifteen, he was a very intelligent and generous boy. He
spent his day only reading, eating, and sleeping. Other than that, he didn’t do
anything. When the teachers of his class asked him any question, he would
answer it very immediately.

He always kept himself away from social activities, but once when he was
going to his school, he saw a very old man begging on the roadside.

At first, he thought that he should stop there and ask him why he was begging
because he was too old to do that, instead, he should rest. At the same time, he
realized that if he stopped there, he would be late for school.

He thought for a while and went to the old man. He saw that everyone was
passing by him but no one was giving him alms. After seeing the incident, he
took out twenty rupees from his pocket and gave them to the beggar. By doing
that, he felt very good and reached the school gasping.
