1) Read the following passage and answer the questions given below:

“Oh, let me go ashore just for one day,” he begged the captain when they had sighted land. He promised he would return but the captain was unmoved. However, Jon could not stop dreaming of the land.

One quiet afternoon, he lay fast asleep and fell to dreaming again. Unknown to him, the ship stood offshore from his old farm. In Jon’s dream the seasons turned rapidly and as each turned, so did Jon in his bed. Consequently, the cap on his head twisted round and about. It called up a squall from the clear sky that hit the ship without a warning.

The wind had been whirling about the boat tearing the sails and snapping the spars. “It’s his fault,” the sailors cried. They shouted in anger and fear and tried to rip the cap off his head.
