Read this excerpt from rudyard kipling's novel kim in which kim responds to the lama's questions. then complete the sentences that follow.
"so they made the triple trial of strength against all comers. and at the test of the bow, our lord first breaking that which they gave him, called for such a bow as none might bend. thou knowest? "
"it is written. i have read."
"and, overshooting all other marks, the arrow passed far and far beyond sight. at the last it fell; and, where it touched earth, there broke out a stream which presently became a river, whose nature, by our lord's beneficence, and that merit he acquired ere he freed himself, is that whoso bathes in it washes away all taint and speckle of sin."
. .
"if i knew, think you i would not cry it aloud? "
"by it one attains freedom from the wheel of things," the lama went on, unheeding. "the river of the arrow! think again! some little stream, maybe—dried in the heats? but the holy one would never so cheat an old man."
"i do not know. i do not know."
the lama is looking for "the river of the arrow" because
(1. he thinks he will be purified spiritually when he finds it)
(2. he thinks he will find his master on it's banks)
(3. he believes his master's grave lies on its banks)
(4. he believes he will see god when he finds it)
the excerpt shows that
(1. kim is under the lama's spell and eager to him find the river)
(2. kim has no regard for the lama and does not listen to him)
(3.kim is eager to show the lama he does not know where the river is located)
(4. kim thinks the lama's story is true and listens with interest so he can find the river for himself)
