Study the following statements :
(a) The Scarecrow gathered nuts as the tree was full of them.
(b) He feared for his life so he got busy in gathering nuts.
Answer: C
Both (a) and (b) are right.
(a) The scarecrow 'found a tree full of nuts and filled Dorothy's basket with them'.
(b) The passage says he did not mind how long the filling took, because it kept him away from the fire, 'as he feared a spark might get into his straw and burn him up'. The key reads this as fear for his life, which made him keep busy gathering nuts, away from the flames.
Because both statements follow from the passage, the options that call either one wrong are incorrect.
