Test: Chapter - 4, Three Men in a Boat - Class 9 MCQ

George suggests that for breakfast, they should take eggs, bacon, cold meat, tea, bread, butter and jam.

The friends had taken an oil stove with them once, but it leaked oil and spoiled the atmosphere. 

George suggested that they should not take cheese with them because it gave off a strong smell. The narrator then remembers a friend who bought a couple of cheeses from Liverpool and the smell of the cheeses made the horses run at a very fast speed. 

The friends used a big Gladstone to pack their clothes.

The narrator said that he would pack for the trip and his friends readily agreed. 

When the narrator was strapping the bag, Harris asked if he was going to put the boots in. This irritated the narrator. 

George and Harris sat around and did nothing while the narrator packed.

Montmorency, the dog, was part of the packing chaos. He misbehaved by putting his leg into the jam, pretended that the lemons were rats, and got into the hamper and killed three of them before Harris could stop him with a frying pan. This shows that Montmorency was playful and mischievous, making the packing experience even more challenging for the friends.

The smell of the cheeses made the horses run at a very fast speed. They were beyond control. In the train, people felt so uncomfortable with the smell that they moved out of the bogey in which he was sitting. His friend's wife even hated the smell of the cheeses and did not keep it in her hotel room.

Montmorency was the dog who was with the friends during their packing. He misbehaved during the packing by putting his leg into the jam, pretending that the lemons were rats, and getting into the hamper and killing three of them before Harris could land him with a frying pan.
