Questions 1-6 are based upon the following passage:

This excerpt is an adaptation of Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s
Travelsinto Several Remote Nations of the World.
My gentleness and good behaviour had gained so far on the
emperorand his court, and indeed upon the army and people
in general, that I began to conceive hopes of getting my
liberty in a short time. I tookall possible methods to cultivate
this favourable disposition. The natives came, by degrees, to
be less apprehensive of any danger from me. I would
sometimes lie down, and let five or six of them dance on my
hand; and at last the boys and girls would venture to come
and play at hide-and-seek in my hair. I had now made a
good progress in understanding and speaking the language.
The emperor had a mind one day to entertain me with
several of the country shows, wherein they exceed all
nations I have known, both for dexterity and magnificence. I
was diverted with none so much as that of the rope-dancers,
performed upon a slender white thread, extended about two
feet, and twelve inches from the ground. Upon which I shall
desire liberty, with the reader’s patience, to enlarge a
little.

This diversion is only practised by those persons who are
candidates for great employments, and high favour at court.
They are trained in this art from their youth, and are not
always of noble birth, or liberal education. When a great
office is vacant, either by death or disgrace (which often

,happens,) five or six of those candidates petition the
emperor to entertain his majesty and the court with a dance
on the rope; and whoever jumps the highest, without falling,
succeeds in the office. Very often the chief ministers

,themselves are commanded to show their skill, and to
convince the emperor that they have not lost their faculty.
Flimnap, the treasurer,is allowed to cut a caper on the
straight rope, at least an inch higher than any other lord in
the whole empire. I have seen him do the summerset
several times together, upon a trencher fixed on a rope
which is no thicker than a common packthread in England.
My friend Reldresal, principal secretary for private affairs, is,
in my opinion, if I am not partial, the second after the




311

treasurer; the rest of the great officers are much upon a par.
