Read the following passage, then answer the questions:-
I have a friend who always pretends to know everything.
Whenever
a name is mentioned,
he says he knows this person well. I believed
him until I discovered his lies. He once visited me when I was with my
cousin, Osama Ali who is a well-known writer. Before I introduced my
friend to Osama, his eyes fell on one of the books written
by him. He
at once said that
the writer of the book was one of his relatives .
He also said that Osama Ali never wrote a book before discussing
its ideas with him. He went so far as to say that Osama
had the idea
of his best novel from a story he told him, which actually happened to
one of his
friends. As Osama
wrote stories that never
actually
happened, he kept on listening with amusement. He at last asked him
if he would recognize

saw him, and my friend assured
him that he would. With a loud laugh, Osama introduced
himself to my
