Study the following statements :

(a) Mr. Carr intended to get Alfred arrested.
(b) Mrs. Higgins wanted him to be given a chance to reform himself.

  • A.(a) is right and (b) is wrong.
  • B.(b) is right and (a) is wrong.
  • C.Both (a) and (b) are right.
  • D.Both (a) and (b) are wrong.

Answer: C

Both (a) and (b) are right.

(a) Mr. Carr says plainly, 'I am going to get a cop. That's what I ought to do.' He intended to have Alfred arrested.

(b) Mrs. Higgins asks him to listen to her before doing anything, and says that 'a little good advice is the best thing for a boy' at a certain stage of his life. She is asking that Alfred be given a chance to mend his ways instead of being arrested.

As both statements are supported by the passage, the options that reject either of them are wrong.
