Comprehension MCQ (12 marks)
Read the passage carefully. Then choose the correct answer and write its number (A,B,C or D) in the brackets.
Pamela lived with her parents in a cozy cottage. As the apple of their eyes, she was given everything she wanted. However, Pamela was very miserable because there was one thing she wanted and her parents could not provide for her.
Pamela had no friends. The thought of having nobody to talk to saddened her so much so that she could not bring herself to even smile. Pamela was not ugly. In fact, she had the most beautiful face in the town she lived in. It was her dwarf-like stature that turned everyone away.
One day, Pamela heard a voice when she was sitting by the river admiring the rainbow. "Why do you look so sad?" the rainbow asked. Pamela told the rainbow about her misery. "Come and walk on me. When you've reached the end, you would see a pot of gold. Touch the pot with your hand and make a wish. It will come true for you, and only you." Pamela followed what the rainbow had told her and wished that she would have the height of a normal person. Within a second, she was as tall as her mother. All the young men and ladies in town came to be her friends.
