Once, it so happened that a Lion and a Bear were resting not very far from each other. They bothchanced to see a strong kid nearby. The great Bear rushed to seize the kid from one direction and theLion came towards it from the other.Since both the lion and the Bear wanted the prey, they fought savagely for it. In the battle, bothreceived so many wounds that they sank to the ground, as they were too exhausted to continue thecontest. Just then the clever fox came by. The fox dashed up, seized the kid in his jaws by his teeth,and whisked it off.The mighty lion and the powerful bear could only watch with helpless rage as a much weaker animalmanaged to get the prize, which they had themselves set their eyes upon. “It would have been muchbetter,” agreed the Lion and Bear, “to have shared the prey between us ourselves in a friendly spirit,rather than lose it to a third party!”Answer the following questions: 10M1) Give a suitable title to the passage. (1 Mark)

A farmer owns a 350-acre dairy farm in upstate New York. In addition to milk and butter, the farmer sells fresh eggs at the Union Square Greenmarket in Manhattan. It is imperative that the farmer protects the hen that lays his eggs. He has two barns, one hen, and a supply of corn. A fox has been attempting to eat the hen by hiding in a barn. The hen can move freely from one barn to another. Farmer George sometimes stores corn in one barn and sometimes in the other, but he never stores it in both at the same time. The hen would like to eat the corn and the fox would like to eat the hen. Farmer George decides to design an alarm system to protect the hen and the corn. The design should only use logic gates and include the possible input variables. The alarm will sound if: 1. The fox and the hen are in the same barn, or 2. The hen and the corn are in the same barn. The alarm sound represents a ‘1’.
