Pedro thought that he was smarter than any of his colleagues, so he tricked them every time he got the opportunity. He took their coins, marbles and even food through the keenest ways possible. The boys wanted to avenge him for his unfair deeds. Beating him was out of the question because he was too big and muscular. Troy and Tim thought that something had to be done and so they planned to punish him in some way. 

One Sunday, Troy, Pedro and Tim made their way through the narrow track to their favourite pond and came to Mrs. Graham's ackee tree. Tim suggested that Pedro was the most fearless and should climb the tree to pick a few ripe fruits for them. He accepted. Meanwhile, Simeon suggested to Mrs. Graham that she should release the dog because a stranger was picking her ackees. By the time the dog was untied the two boys on the ground had already made good their escape. The dog saw Pedro and remained under the tree. Every time he shifted his position, the dog growled at him until it was getting dark. Pedro screamed and begged for help, but Simeon pretended not to hear. That evening, the rain fell heavily and there were chilly winds that accompanied it. The uncomfortable weather forced Pedro to huddle on a large branch and beneath some leaves for shelter. Simeon, thinking that the punishment was enough, recaptured the animal and took him back to the kennel. 


1. On which day did the boys punish Pedro?


2. Of what did Pedro cheat the boys?


3. Why couldn't the boys beat Pedro?


4. What did Troy and Tim plan to do to Pedro?


5. What did Tim suggest about how to obtain the ackees?
