Question
Answer the following question.
The bear grew up but “he was a most amiable bear”. Give three examples to prove this
Solution
He was a most amiable bear as he did not harm anybody. He sat outside his kennel and looked with his small intelligent eyes most amicably at the cattle grazing in the field nearby. The children rode on his back and had more than once been found asleep in his kennel, between his two paws. The three dogs loved to play various kinds of games with him. They pulled his ears and his stump of a tail, teasing him in every way. However, he did not mind it in the least.
