Passage III

Everybody these days appears to be asking for more, as it turns out, elephants. Well, one elephant, at least. This 'gentleman' and his mahout were sauntering along the highway out of Nagpur one balmy night when they saw a truck coming their way. The breeze also brought to them the appetising fragrance of fresh fruit. So, they calmly parked themselves in the middle of the road and eventually a screech of brakes and a few choice swear words from inside the truck's cabin clarified that the driver had got the message. To get rid of the duo, he offered a 10-rupee note which was contemptuously spurned. Agreed by the meagre donation the elephant, instantly went into action, which consisted in trying to halt the driver out of the cabin by lovingly curling his muscular truck around his neck and tugging. The victim was on the verge of decapitation when a sharp blow on the truck freed him. In a couple of seconds he had let in the clutch and was racing off into the night.

The elephant expressed its anger by

A) refusing the ten rupee note

B) shattering the windscreen on the truck

C) trying to pull the driver from his cabin

D) dismounting its mahout
