Read the passage and then answer the questions below Mark the correct letter

The face in the mirror The play now on at the New Theatre as part of the Easter Arts Festival is not among the best plays for which the director, Amy Fielding, has been responsible

The action takes place in the home of Professor Spear One night his landlady comes to the house for a chat After inviting her in, the professor hears a sound and, thinking it is a burglar coming to rob the house, fires his gun By mistake, the wrong person is shot and the thief gets away The scene of the second act is a law court, in which everyone wants to find out if the professor is guilty of murder

I did not care for the acting of some cases Norman John is normally seen in comedy and it is not satisfactory as the professor He does not look like a wise old man Also, Simon Fry, as the servant, shouted at the top of his voice all through the play The hit of everything, however, was James Smith as the judge

Smith.” end I like
