6. Answer the following questions briefly<\/strong>
\n(a) Do you think the Bishop was right in selling the salt-cellars? Why\/why not?
\nAns: <\/strong>Yes, the Bishop was right in selling the salt-cellars because he was an ideal person. He could not bear the thought of an old and sick lady to be thrown out of the house due to non-payment of rent. He always helps people in times of need.<\/p>\n

(b) Why does Persome feel the people pretend to be sick?
\nAns: <\/strong>Persome pretended to be sick so that the Bishop may be near her. She is pained to see that the entire humanity is turning upon them for charity and benevolence. She felt that people pretended to be sick and take undue advantage of the Bishop.<\/p>\n

(c) Who was Jeanette? What was the cause of her death?
\nAns: <\/strong>Jeanette was the convict\u2019s wife. She died due to illness and starvation.<\/p>\n

(d) The convict says, \u201cI am too old a bird to be caught with chaff.\u201d What does he mean by this<\/strong> statement?
\nAns: <\/strong>The convict has suffered, he is embittered, he is experienced. So he couldn\u2019t be tricked. He ordered the Bishop to stay put because he couldn\u2019t trust anyone not to report to the police and get him arrested.<\/p>\n

(e) Why was the convict sent to prison? What was the punishment given to him?
\nAns:<\/strong> The convict was sent to prison for stealing a loaf of bread. He was sentenced to ten years in a prison hulk.<\/p>\n

(f) Do you think the punishment given to the convict was justified? Why\/ why not? Why is the convict eager to reach Paris?
\nAns: <\/strong>The punishment given to the convict was not justified. It is too inhuman for someone who was caught stealing just to feed his sick wife.He was guilty of stealing only to feed his wife who was dying of starvation. But they showed him no mercy andtreated him like a beast. They chained him like a wild animal, lashed him like a hound and fed him filth. He was covered with vermin and had to sleep on boards. This kind of treatment is inhuman and not justified.
\nThe convict is eager to reach Paris because it was a big city and the Police would never be able to find him there.<\/p>\n

(g) Before leaving, the convict asks the Bishop to bless him. What brought about this change in him?<\/strong>
\nAns: <\/strong>The Bishop\u2019s benevolent, kind and caring attitude had brought about a change in the convict. That is why before leaving for Paris, he asks the Bishop to bless him.<\/p>\n
