One day a large parcel came for the emperor; outside was written the word 'Nightingale.' 'Here we have another new book about th

is celebrated bird,' said the emperor. But it was no book; it was a little work of art in a box, an artificial nightingale, exactly like the living one, but it was studded all over with diamonds, rubies and sapphires. When the bird was wound up it could sing one of the songs the real one sang, and it wagged its tail, which glittered with silver and gold. 9. What is the meaning of “wound” in this passage?

Answer:

a) turn to activate

Explanation:

We can infer the meaning of the word from the context of this excerpt.

So, the emperor received a parcel containing a mechanical bird. After windidng the bird up, it could sing and move. This means the bird was activated in some kind of way.

Winding up something is a way of activating a toy, a clock or a mechanical device by turning the handle.

Notice that this verb is written in passive voice and in past tense "wind up - wound up".

"Wound" can also mean an injury, as a noun. This means that these two words are heteronyms; they are spelled the same, but have different meanings and are pronounced differently.
