Reading Comprehension 4 Questions 1 - 5 are based on the following passage: Bobby and his master, farmer John Gray, were familiar sights in Edinburgh. Every Wednesday after a visit to market and exactly as the time-gun boomed one oclock, the two would enter Traills Dining Room for their midday meal, a frugal lunch for Gray, and a bun for Bobby. Then in 1858, the schedule was interrupted. Farmer Gray died. Three days after the funeral exactly at one oclock, Traill found himself looking into a pair of beseeching canine eyes. Bobby got his bun and disappeared. This was repeated for several days until Traills curiosity got the better of him. He followed the small terrier as he left and raced to his masters grave. There he remained each day, fair or foul, despite the efforts of dog-loving townspeople to give him a new home. The graveyard caretaker, while sympathetic, was at first not so willing to let him in. But Bobbys devotion and fidelity were so great that the caretaker provided Bobby with a shelter close to the grave to protect him from bad weather. Then, after nine years, Bobby was arrested as a vagrant because he had no license. The restaurant keeper appeared in court with Bobby. He was released by merciful justice. But just to make sure the law could not touch him. Lord Provost William Chambers paid Bobbys fee each year and presented him with a brass-plated collar inscribed Grey friars, Bobby from The Lord Provost, 1876, Licensee. After that.Greyfriars Bobby was allowed to keep his lonely vigil undisturbed. He never varied his mealtime. Each day he left the graveyard as the gun roared one oclock to pick up his bun and take it back to eat at his masters side. He must have been really hardy for he lived until 1872, having kept to his solitary post for fourteen long years. He was buried in Greyfriars, of course, in a flower bed near John Grays tombstone. 1.
