Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follows. There was once a woman who was very upset because her husband no longer Loved her. He NEGLECTED her and seemed to care little whether she was happy or sad. So she took her problem to local witch doctor. 'Can you give me a charm to make him love me again? She asked anxiously. The witch doctor thought for a moment and replied, ' I will help you, but first you must bring me three hairs from the mane of a living lion. These I must have before I can make the charm for you'. The woman thanked the witchdoctor and went away. She went home and thought, ' how shall I do this thing? There is lion that often comes to my village. But he is fierce and roars fearfully'. Then she thought again, and at last she knew what she would do. The next morning she took a young lamb and went to the place where the lion always STROLLED. She waited anxiously. At last she saw the lion APPROACHING. Quickly ,she rose and, leaving the lamb in the path of the lion, she went home. And so it was that every day, early in the morning the woman would take a young lamb to the lion for his breakfast. Soon the lion came to know the woman, for she was always in the same place, at the same time , every day with a lamb for him. She was indeed a kind and attentive woman. It was not long before the lion began to wag his tail each time he saw her. He would come close to her and let her stroke his head and his back. And each day the woman would stay quietly stroking the lion, gently and lovingly. Then one day when she knew that the lion trusted her, she carefully pulled three hairs from his mane and happily set out for the witchdoctor's house. 'See,' she said TRIUMPHANTLY as she entered, ' Here they are ' and she gave him the three hairs from the lion's mane. 'How is it you have been so clever? asked the witchdoctor in AMAZEMENT. And so the woman told him the story of how she had patiently won the hairs from the lion. A smile spread over the face of the witchdoctor and leaning forward, he said, ' You have tamed the lion, now tame your husband in the same way '.
