Quiz Preview

  • 2. 

    The first few days, Black Beuaty was fed

    • Grass

    • Oats and corn

    • Only corn.

    • Very little.

    Correct Answer
    A. Oats and corn
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "oats and corn" because the statement mentions that Black Beauty was fed grass, oats, and corn in the first few days. It also states that later on, Black Beauty was fed only corn, indicating a change in the diet. This suggests that oats and corn were initially part of the horse's diet. The statement also mentions that Black Beauty was fed very little, which further supports the idea that oats and corn were included in the diet.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    This stoty is mainly about

    • A man and a son who are wanted by the police.

    • A man who enjoys his horse.

    • Taking care of a barn.

    • How men and animals could be bad to each other.

    Correct Answer
    A. How men and animals could be bad to each other.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "how men and animals could be bad to each other." This is because the story focuses on the relationship between men and animals, specifically highlighting how they can harm each other. The other options, such as a man and a son wanted by the police or a man enjoying his horse, do not align with the main theme of the story.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Another name for this story could be

    • What to Do for a Sick Horse

    • No Food for Black Beauty

    • One Good Man and Two Bad Ones.

    • Caring for Horses the Right Way.

    Correct Answer
    A. One Good Man and Two Bad Ones.
    Explanation
    The given answer, "One Good Man and Two Bad Ones," suggests that the story may involve three main characters - one good man and two bad ones. This title implies that the story could revolve around a conflict between these characters and their differing moral values or actions. It raises the possibility of a narrative that explores themes of morality, character, and the consequences of choices made by individuals.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    The barn master was 

    • Keeping the food for his own animals.

    • Giving Black Beauty's food to other horses.

    • Selling Black Beauty's food.

    • Was really a horse thief.

    Correct Answer
    A. Keeping the food for his own animals.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "keeping the food for his own animals." This is indicated by the phrase "The barn master was" which suggests that the barn master was responsible for something. The phrase "keeping the food for his own animals" implies that the barn master was hoarding the food for his own animals, rather than distributing it to other horses or selling it.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Black Beauty thought the second barn master

    • Was honest and good looking.

    • Was not suited for his job.

    • Didn't care about the way he looked.

    • Was just right for the job.

    Correct Answer
    A. Was not suited for his job.
    Explanation
    Black Beauty thought the second barn master was not suited for his job. This can be inferred from the statement that Black Beauty "saw that he understood his business" but also noticed that "he was too fond of his own opinion and would take no denial of his own way of doing things." This suggests that the barn master was stubborn and unwilling to listen to others, which would make him unsuited for his job of managing the barn and taking care of the horses.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    The two barn masters

    • Tried to do their jobs well.

    • Wanted to buy the farm from the owner.

    • Cared more about themselves than the horses.

    • Told Black Beauty's owner the real story.

    Correct Answer
    A. Cared more about themselves than the horses.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "cared more about themselves than the horses." This answer is supported by the information given in the question, which states that the two barn masters tried to do their jobs well. If they truly cared about the horses, they would prioritize their well-being over their own interests. However, the fact that they cared more about themselves suggests that they neglected the horses' needs and put their own desires first.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Black Beauty knew the barn master

    • Was not being fair to the owner.

    • Wanted to take him home for his son

    • Did not really like him.

    • Was trying to make him sick.

    Correct Answer
    A. Was not being fair to the owner.
    Explanation
    Black Beauty knew that the barn master was not being fair to the owner. This implies that the barn master was treating the owner unjustly or unfairly in some way. Black Beauty, being aware of this unfair treatment, could observe the actions and behavior of the barn master and come to the conclusion that the owner was being treated unfairly.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Black  Beauty;s owner was unhappy

    • Because he couldn't take him out for a ride.

    • When he couldn't find any buyers for his horse.

    • When the doctor charged him a lot of money.

    • Because he had been taken in by 2 bad men.

    Correct Answer
    A. Because he had been taken in by 2 bad men.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is because he had been taken in by 2 bad men. This is evident from the phrase "taken in by 2 bad men" which suggests that Black Beauty's owner had been deceived or tricked by these individuals, leading to his unhappiness. The other options do not provide any information about the owner being deceived or taken advantage of.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Black Beauty got sick because

    • His box was never cleaned and he never went out to run.

    • The barn master put something in the food.

    • The horse balls he had to take were too big.

    • His master had rode him too far and too fast.

    Correct Answer
    A. His box was never cleaned and he never went out to run.
    Explanation
    Black Beauty got sick because his box was never cleaned and he never went out to run. Neglecting to clean his box led to unsanitary conditions, which can contribute to the spread of diseases and infections. Additionally, not allowing him to exercise and run outside deprived him of the physical activity necessary for a horse's well-being, leading to a weakened immune system and overall poor health.
