Detailed explanation-1: -(c) What does the phrase ‘neither his lips nor his eyes showed anything’ explain ? Answer: (a) The narrator’s heart sank to think that Anil might have known that he had stolen his money. So he would be sad at the loss of trust.
Detailed explanation-2: -What evidence best supports the inference that Anil knew the narrator took his money? “I hurried back to the room feeling nervous.” “But when I took the note, I saw it was still wet from the night’s rain.” “In the morning he would probably have given me two or three rupees to go to the cinema, but now I had it all."
Detailed explanation-3: -ii What was the thought behind using appealing smiles frequently on Anil? ANS: One can attract others through the right gestures and facial expressions.
