Read the following text and answer the question that follows.
Babul, a school-boy
Babul lived in a village of Bangladesh. He was a school-boy. There was a canal on his way to school.
Condition of the bridge
There was an old bridge over that canal. It was useful to one and all of the villagers. Yet none cared for its repair. So one day it broke down and caused a good deal of hardship to the villagers.
Problems of Babul and the villagers
Babul was in difficulty. He could not cross the canal and go to school. The villagers were also in difficulty. They could not go to the town on the other side of the canal to sell their fruits and vegetables profitably. They sold their production in the local market at a nominal price and bought the things of their daily use from there at a high rate.
Babul's thinking about the bridge
Babul was young in age but not in intelligence. He began thinking how to repair the bridge. If it was again made the village people would be relieved of their difficulty. Babul and his friends would be able to go to school again.
