Read the text given below and answer the questions that follow:

Once I crept in an oak wood-I was looking for a stag
met an old woman there -all knobbly stick and rag
She said: "I have your secret here inside my little bag.’

Then she began to cackle and I began to quake.
She opened up her little bag and I came twice awake-
Surrounded by a staring tribe and me tied to a stake.

Unless you make a promise now - now you are going to die:"

ANSWER-

THE PROCESS OF MAKING A STATUE

Statues are often made using plaster of paris. The making of such statue requires much attention and care. However a statue is made in the following process. First of all warm water is taken in a container. Then plaster of paris is poured into that warm water and the mixture is prepared. The mixture should not be made very dense. After this a cast of statue is made with wood. The cast made with wood is a crafty work of art. Then the mixture in the container is poured in the cast carefully and the cast is left in a suitable humid atmosphere of a room to harden it. When the cast is finally found hard, the cast is carefully removed using proper tools. Finally the statue is taken out and it is coloured. In this way a statue is made ready to display.
