(from The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling) Read the passage carefully and then answer the question.
He spent all that day roaming over the house. He nearly drowned himself in the bath-tubs, put his nose into the ink on a writing table, and bumt it on the
end of the big man's cigar, for he climbed up in the big man's lap to see how writing was done. At nightfall he ran into Teddy's nursery to watch how
kerosene-lamps were lighted, and when Teddy went to bed Rikki-tikki climbed up too; but he was a restless companion, because he had to get up and
attend to every noise all through the night, and find out what made it. Teddy's mother and father came in the last thing to look at their boy, and Rikki-tikk
was awake on the pillow. "I don't like that," said Teddy's mother; "he may bite the child." "He'll do no such thing," said the father. "Teddy's safer with that
little beast than if he had a bloodhoundło watch him. If a snake came into the nursery now _"
But Teddy's mother wouldn't think of anything so awful.
