08. While teaching a creative writing class in India, I was surprised at receiving stories from the
students that were all set in distant places: in the American West with cowboys and in Manhattan
penthouses with clinking ice cubes. This was, till an eminent Caribbean writer gave the writers in
the once-colonised countries the confidence to see the shabby lives around them as worthy of
being “told”
The writer of this passage is surprised by the creative writing assignments of his students,
because______.
(A) Some of the students had written about ice cubes and cowboys
(B) None of the students had written about ice cubes and cowboys
(C) Some of the students had written stories set in foreign places
(D) None of the students had written stories set in India
08. Ans: (D)
Sol:  No where the word ‘some’ is mentioned. So, ‘D’ is the right statement.
