The Midnight Visitor

1 / 15

Max was slender, a little less than tall, with features that suggested slightly the crafty, pointed countenance of a fox. There was about him — aside from the gun — nothing especially menacing. “The report,” he murmured. “The report that is being brought to you tonight concerning some new missiles. I thought I would take it from you. It will be safer in my hands than in yours.” Ausable moved to an armchair and sat down heavily. “I’m going to raise the devil with the management this time, and you can bet on it,” he said grimly. “This is the second time in a month that somebody has got into my room through that nuisance of a balcony!”

Delnaaz is a new tenant in her locality and Mrs. Mehta is the landlady. Choose the option that lists an action that would require Mrs. Mehta to ‘raise the devil’ with Delnaaz.

  1. She uses the elevator five times a day.
  2. She feeds the stray dogs in the street.
  3. She works late at night and stays home in the afternoon only.

4 / 15

Which word replaces ‘sat down heavily’ in the sentence—'Ausable moved to an armchair and sat down heavily’?

5 / 15

If Max had known there was no balcony, how might the story have ended?

6 / 15

Ausable did not fit any description of a secret agent Fowler had ever read. Following him down the musty corridor of the gloomy French hotel where Ausable had a room, Fowler felt let down. It was a small room, on the sixth and top floor, and scarcely a setting for a romantic adventure. Ausable was, for one thing, fat. Very fat. And then there was his accent. Though he spoke French and German passably, he had never altogether lost the American accent he had brought to Paris from Boston twenty years ago. “You are disappointed,” Ausable said wheezily over his shoulder.

“Following him down the musty corridor of the gloomy French hotel where Ausable had a room…”

Choose the correct option to replace the underlined words.
