Read the following passage and answer the questions that follows: Geeta works in a shop selling gramophone records. One afternoon a middle aged woman came in, sat on a stool in front of the counter and smiled her brightly.

I want a record, dear; she began one I heard on the radio this morning: what was the record called? Geeta asked. Without much hope. The woman shook her head.

I don't remember, I should know if I heard it, though perhaps if you play me a few records I

shall be able to pick it out.

I have hundreds of records in stock, Geeta pointed out. It would take a very long time to play you even a little each. Could you hum it to me?

The woman shook her head again I can't even sing the national anthem in tune. We should

only get into a complete muddle if I were to start humming. She looked quite depressed, as if this reminder of her own lack of musical ability were the last straw. Then suddenly her face brightened. I have just remembered something she said; it comes from a play. There is a girl who speaks very badly. If you see what I mean. But after a time she learns to talk well. Something about

what do you call it? Phonetics?

This was enough for geeta. If you ask me it's from "My fair lady", she said.

That's it dear. If you'd thought of it sooner we wouldn't have wasted so much time. I suppose you are new to the Job;

A. State whether the following statements are true or false.

1. A sad looking young woman came to geeta's shop

2. Geeta played about twenty records for her.

3. The woman knew she had no musical ability.

4. The woman hummed a tune for geeta.

5. She was very sorry for having caused so much trouble.​
