    Question 1.

    How does Toto come to grand-father’s


    private zoo?
    Answer:
    Grandfather loved animals. One day he saw
    this attractive monkey with a tonga- driver.
    The monkey was tied to a feeding- trough
    and seemed out of place there. Grandfather
    had great liking for animals. So he decided
    to buy Toto from the tonga- driver and
    bought it for five rupees.

    Question 2.
    “Toto was a pretty monkey.” In what sense
    is Toto pretty?
    Answer:
    Toto had bright eyes sparkling with
    mischief, pearly white teeth, quick and
    wicked fingers and a gracious tail which
    served as a third hand. The smile of Toto
    was cute and frightened elderly Anglo-
    Indian ladies. Altogether all these qualities
    made him pretty

    Question 3.
    Why does grandfather take Toto to
    Saharanpur and how? Why does the ticket
    collector insist on calling Toto a dog?
    Answer:
    Toto was a mischievous monkey. He kept
    disturbing all other animals in
    grandfather’s private zoo. It seemed that
    only grandfather could manage him
    properly. So, he took Toto to Saharanpur in
    a bag. The ticket collector called Toto a dog
    as the monkey did not qualify the category
    of human beings.

    Question 4.
    How does Toto take a bath? Where has he
    learnt to do this? How does Toto almost boil
    himself alive?
    Answer:
    Toto cunningly tested the temperature with
    his hand then gradually stepped into the
    bath. He stepped first one foot, then the
    other, until he was into the water up to his
    neck. He rubbed himself all over with the
    soap. He learned it all from the author.
    Some day Toto got in a large kitchen kettle
    which was on fire to boil. He enjoyed the
    warm water but when the water turned out
    to be hot he jumped up and down. Suddenly
    the grandmother arrived at and pulled him
    out in half-boiled condition.

    Question 5.
    Why does the author say, “Toto was not the
    sort of pet we could keep for long”?
    Answer:
    Author’s statement about Toto proves itself
    if we take Toto’s misdeeds into
    consideration. Nobody could afford the
    frequent losses. He disturbed all other
    animals too. Obviously Toto was not the
    sort of pet we could keep for long.
