1) Read the passage carefully and answer the questions given below.

One day, when I was going towards my boat, I was

surprised to see the footprint of a man on the sand. I stood amazed!
I listened; I looked around me; I could neither hear nor see
anything. I went up higher to look down; I went up the shore and
down the shore, but it was no good; I could find no other footprint
but that one. I went to it again to see if there were any more
footprints and to tell if it had been my imagination. But I was not
mistaken, for there was exactly the print of a foot toes, heel,
every part of a foot. I could not imagine how it came there.
I stayed a long time thinking, but became more and more
confused. At last I returned home very frightened, looking behind
me after every two or three steps, mistaking every bush and tree to
be a man.
