Sometimes he has to be on duty at night. When he hears some sound, he has to get up to see if someone cuts the trees. One day he bought something in the town. He found a strong dog and bought it. He loves it very much and often gives some meat or bread to it. And when a strange man walks close to his house, it barks loudly. So he can soon know about it and goes out to find out who it is. But last week something was wrong with Mr. Clarke. He didn't feel well and couldn't fall asleep in the evening. He had to go to a hospital in the town.

Ques: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Do you know what an eagle does when a storm is coming? The eagle will fly to some high spot and wait for the winds to come. When the storm hits, it opens its wings so that the wind will pick it up and lift it above the storm. While the storm rages below, the eagle is flying above it. The eagle does not shirk the storm. It simply uses the storm to lift it higher. It rises on the winds that bring the storm. When the storms of life come to us--- and all of us will experience them--- we can rise above them by setting our minds and our belief, like an eagle does. The storms do not have to beat us. We can use the nature's power to lift us above them. We are able to ride the winds of the storm that bring sickness, tragedy, failure and disappointment in our lives. We can fly above the storm. Remember, it is not the burdens of life that weigh us down, it is how we face them. Question: What should we do when the storms of life come to us? Options: A: Encourage ourselves to rise above them. B: Be ready to lose our belief. C: Run away before they come. D: Use the nature's power to hide ourselves.
