Read Stanza 1 and stanza 2 of the poem below and answer the questions that follow.

Mr Nobody

I know a funny little man,

As quiet as a mouse,

Who does the mischief that is done

ln everybody's'house!

There's no one ever sees his face,

And yet we all agree

That every plate we break was cracked

By Mr Nobody.

'Tis he who always tears our books,

Who leaves the door ajar,

He pulls the buttons from our shirts,

And scatters pins afar;

That squeaking door will always squeak,

For, prithee, don't you see,

We leave the oiling to be done

By Mr Nobody.

You should help out with the chores whenever possible. Your hosts probablywill not say anything to you if you do not help but you can be sure that you will not bewelcomed back because of it.

Ask your hosts what their favourite restaurant is and treat them to a nice meal.You can all be at the same place at the same time to catch up.

Leave quietly and thoughtfully. lf you have to leave really early in the morning,say your farewells the night before. Your hosts may not be on vacation as yorJ areso do not overstay. A short stay is a pleasant stay and leaves everyone feelinggood about each other.

Once you have returned horne, make it a point to let your hosts know howmuch you appreciate their hospitality. A card or phone call to thank them will also beappreciated
