Read the passage, then answer the questions that follow. The arkatis (recruiters) who were hired by shipping companies were Indians themselves; they knew villagers would not want to cross the water. But they also knew where there were hungry, desperate people. So they fanned out to the countryside and began to look for strong men. Bharath, who was about to leave for Trinidad, later explained how that happened. His version of English is hard to understand, but it is how the Indians began to speak on the islands. “E no tell e I go chinedad you know . . . e no tell e no come back, e no greet mumma fadder again.” (“He did not tell me I was going to Trinidad, you know. He didn't tell me I would never come back, or never see my mother and father again.”)
