Read the following pa•uge and answer the question • that follow.
His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day,
while trying to eke out a living for his family, he heard a cry for help
coming from a nearby bog. He dropped his tools and ran to the bog.
There, mired to his waist in black muck, was a terrified boy, screamin g
and strugglin g to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what
could have been a slow and terrifying death.
The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up at the Scotsma n's sparse
surround ings. An elegantly dressed noblema n stepped out and
introduce d himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved.
"I want to repay you", said the noblema n. "You saved my son's life."
"No, I can't accept payment for what I did", the Scottish farmer replied,
waving aside the offer. At that moment, the farmer's own son came to
the door of the family hovel.
"Is that your son?" the noblema n asked. "Yes," the farmer replied
proudly. "I'll make you a deal. Let me take him and give him a good
educatio n. If the lad is anything like his father, he'll grow into a man
you can be proud of', said the noblema n. And that he did. In time,
