Read The Passage and Answer the Questions.

After he had eaten, Gulliver promptly fell asleep because his drink had a sleeping draught in it. They then set about transporting Gulliver to the capital. They used a large platform with twenty-two wheels pulled by dozens of four-anda-half-inch horses. They somehow managed to put him on the platform and dragged Gulliver down the road to the city. Suddenly Gulliver woke-up when the vehicle stopped. Two or three curious, young Lilliputians wanted to see how Gulliver looked when asleep. They climbed up into the engine, and advancing very softly to his face, put the sharp end of their half-pike into his left nostril. This tickled Gulliver’s nose like a straw, and made him sneeze.

a. Why did Gulliver promptly fell asleep, after he had eaten?

b. How many horse pulled the platform on which Gulliver was laid?

c. What happened when the vehicle stopped?

d. Who wanted to see how Gulliver looked when a sleep?
