1. What did the man think when the boy did not return at once?

The man thought that the boy ran away with the money.

The boy lost the money, so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor to have the cup of tea.

3. What do you think the man felt after knowing it? Why?

I think that he felt bad about himself because he judged the boy by his appearance.

4. Does his experience reflect bias or prejudice? Why?

His experience reflects prejudice because he judged the boy by his attire. He had the prejudice that poor or pathetically dressed boys are thefts.

5. How can we avoid this kind of situation?

We can avoid this kind of situation by learning through different experiences and texts, like this story. Also, we should reflect on our actions and thoughts to identify prejudices and work on them.

Explanation:

1.We can see that the man thought that the boy ran away with the money in the fourth paragraph when he says, "Now I was sure that the child ran away the money..."

2. The answer to question number two is in the last paragraph when the boy explains what happened "He told me, he lost the 5 rupees coin and so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor, to bring me a cup of tea."

3. It is not in the story, but we can infer that he felt bad since he judged someone wrong and unfairly since the boy was not a thief. He only was pathetically dressed.

4. We can see that his experience reflects prejudice since he has a concept in his mind about people dressed in dirty and torn clothes. He relates the appearance of someone with traits, so there's prejudice because he is judging the boy without knowing him.

5. There are many ways to avoid these situations. One of them is by educating ourselves and reflecting on our thought and actions. We can do this in different ways. For example, by reading, talking with others about their experiences and point of view, or thinking about our actions.
