Are these questions and answers suitable? (E.M.18-c)

Hi teachers,
According to this contex: (It is from a CD)
Yes sir, I see. But how can he get to the hospital? It’s going to be difficult.’
‘Why, man? The hospital’s not far from here.’
‘Well, yes, sir. I know. But, you see, Merrick can’t walk very well. He needs help.’
‘You can come with him. Do you want more money? Is that it?’
‘Well, yes, sir, I do. But, you see, people are afraid of him too … in the road, little boys always run after him and hit him. Then the police get angry because people are afraid. Sometimes they take us to prison.’
‘I see,’ I said. ‘Well, how can he come to the hospital, then?’
‘Bring a cab, sir,’ said Silcock. ‘You can take him to the hospital in a cab.’

Are these questions and answers suitable?
a) Why did the shopkeeper say, ‘How can he come to the hospital? It’s going to be difficult.'?
Because Merrick couldn’t walk very well. He needed help.
b) What was the real shopkeeper's reason? He wanted more money.
c) How did people and little kids react when they saw Merrick?
People were afraid and little kids ran after him and hit him.
d) What happened when people were afraid in the road? Is it better this one: What did the police do then?
The police got angry and sometimes they took them to prison.
e) What was the shopkeeper's solution then? To bring Merrick to the hospital in a cab.

Thanks in advance.
