Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: D. The Indians could not understand English.

In this book, Mr. t. N. Mukharji tells the story of his visit to Europe in 1886. He travelled as a representative of the Government of India to the Colonial and Indian Exhibition in London. The excerpt tells a story in which Mukharji was sitting at a restaurant, next to an Indian family. The family wanted to talk to him, but assumed that they could not, as he would not understand them. The author then describes their surprise when he approached them and they realized he spoke English fluently.
