Which one of the following ploys does the author not use to get rid of unwanted guests ?

  • A.The place is infested with scorpions.
  • B.Centipedes fall from the ceiling.
  • C.There is acute water scarcity.
  • D.He has already too many guests.

Answer: C

The ploy the author does not use is that there is acute water scarcity.

The passage lists his ploys: the cottage is bursting with people sleeping on the floor (too many guests), the warning about scorpions, and the claim that centipedes sometimes fall from the ceiling. He also says he must leave to interview the Maharishi.

Water scarcity is never mentioned, so it is the ploy he does not use.
