Question : Comprehension:

Read the following passage and answer the questions.

For birds to survive, they must learn to live with and off humans, and those birds, like crows, sparrows, and mynahs, who do this to perfection, continue to thrive as our cities grow, whereas the purely wild birds, who depend on forests for life, are rapidly disappearing because forests are disappearing. If you have just a bit of garden and perhaps a guava tree, you will be visited by innumerable bulbuls, mynahs, tailor birds, parrots, etc. Or, if you own an old house, you will have to share it with pigeons and sparrows. And, if you have neither a garden nor a rooftop, you will still be visited by the crows.

Where man goes, the crow follows. He has learned to perfect the art of living off of humans. He will, I am sure, be the first bird on the moon, scavenging among the paper bags and cartons left behind by untidy astronauts. Crows favour the densest areas of the human population, and there must be one for every human. Many crows seem to have been humans in their previous lives; they possess all the cunning and sense of self preservation of man. At the same time, there are many humans who have obviously been crows, we haven't lost their thieving instincts.

Watch a crow sidling along the garden wall with an eye at the kitchen door and any attendant humans. He waits in the background till his chance comes, and then he pounces! I have even known a crow to make off with an egg from the breakfast table. The mynah, however, is more of a gentleman. He prefers fruit on the tree to scraps from the kitchen and visits the garden in expectation of handouts. He is quite handsome, too, with his bright orange bill. Although the blue jay is quite capable of making his living in the forest, he seems to show a preference for human haunts. He would rather perch on a telegraph wire because he finds it a better launching pad for his sudden rocket flights and aerial acrobatics!
