3 : The old man sold the clock back to the shopkeeper and made 15 rupees by selling it.
4 : The boy had won four prizes which included a comb, a fountain pen, a wristwatch and a table lamp.
5 : Rasheed was upset because his hopes of winning a big prize were being crushed by constant failure. He continued trying his luck but every time he got a trifle. People were not sympathetic, rather they looked at him and laughed at his bad luck. He continued to play till he finished all his money.
6 : The shopkeeper fooled Rasheed by making him believe that it was luck that got the old man and the boy their prizes and concealed the fact that they were his friends. He convinced Rasheed that it is a game based on luck and continued to trick him. Therefore, Rasheed continued to try his luck but he could get only some cheap things which he sold back to the shopkeeper and ultimately, lost all his money.
