Seen passage - 3 mrks (MCQ 3Qs)
Suddenly, Tom stopped groaning and added, ‘It’s my tooth as well.’ ‘Your tooth? What happened?
'It's loose and quite painful.’ ‘Open your mouth,’ she said. Tom opened his mouth. ‘Yes, the tooth
is indeed loose. But it won’t kill you. Mary, fetch that strong piece of string and a lump of hot,
burning coal from the fireplace,’ said Aunt Polly. Mary was Tom’s cousin.
Tom said, ‘Oh! Please don’t pull my tooth out. It doesn’t hurt now. I want to go to school…’
‘Ah! There you are! So, the problem was about going to school. I know that you would love to go
fishing, ’said Aunt Polly.
In the meanwhile, Mary came in with the piece of string and the red-hot coal. Aunt Polly skillfully
tied one end of the thread to Tom's tooth. She tied the other end to the bedpost. Suddenly she
