To The Glacier Summary

Once upon a time there were four boys who had set out to cover the last dak bungalow which was 10,000 feet above the sea level. The glacier was seven miles away from this bungalow. They had finished all the eatables brought with them. At such a height there was no human being. Only animals like snow bears were found there. They explored a snow field which looked like a valley of Gods. They all sat on rocks to rest for a while.

It was a sunny day and they all sat there to have a sun bath. Suddenly they heard the sound of thunder. All the boys rushed to find some shelter in a nearby cave. It started raining heavily there. Anil had a pocket knife with which all of them carved their names on the rocks of the cave. It was dark all around. The path became very slippery due to rain. They would have slipped in a hole but had a narrow escape due to the moonlight. So they all decided to go back to the cave.

The next morning they again started to climb up but as Kamal dared to take a few steps on the loose pebbles, the ground gave way. They had to grab him by the arms and shoulders. All were soon on the glacier. It was again very slippery there. The narrator also sprained his wrist and hurt his knee due to that. They climbed down back from the way as it was a very narrow passage which brought them back to the dak bungalow.

एक बार चार लड़कों ने डाक बंगले पर जाने का निश्चय किया जो समुद्री तट से 10,000 फीट की ऊँचाई पर था। वहाँ से हिमनद सात मील की दूरी पर था। अब तक वे अपने साथ लायी हुई खाने की सभी चीजें खत्म कर चुके थे । वे जिस ऊँचाई पर थे वहाँ केवल जंगली जानवर ही दिखायी दे रहे थे। ऊपर पहुँचकर जब उन्होंने सफेद रंग की बर्फ की चादर देखी तो उनकी हैरानी की सीमा नहीं रही। उन्हें लगा जैसे वे सब स्वर्ग में खड़े हों। वे वहाँ पर बने कुछ काले पत्थरों पर बैठ गये ।

उस दिन धूप बहुत तेज थी और वे वहाँ बैठकर धूप सेंकने लगे। तभी उन्हें तेज बिजली की गड़गड़ाहट सुनाई दी और वे पास की गुफा की ओर शरण लेने के लिए भागे और गुफा में पहुँचकर बारिश रुकने का इंतजार करने लगे । अनिल के पास एक चाकू था जिससे उन्होंने गुफा के पत्थर पर अपने नाम लिखे। बारिश रुकने पर वहाँ अंधेरा हो चुका था, किन्तु पूर्णिमा की वजह से रोशनी थी। इसी रोशनी के सहारे वे आगे चल पड़े, किन्तु बारिश की वजह से रास्ते में फिसलन बढ़ गई थी जिसकी वजह से वे गढ्ढे में गिरने से बाल-बाल बचे और उन्होंने गुफा में वापस पहुँचने का निश्चय किया।

अगली सुबह उन्होंने यात्रा शुरू की। कमल ने जैसे ही कुछ कदम कंकड़ों पर लिये वह फिसलन भरा था। उन्होंने उसे कन्धे और बाजू पकड़कर बचाया । इसलिए उन्होंने बहुत ही ध्यान से रास्ता अपनाया । लेखक को भी चलते-चलते बाजू में मोच आ गयी और घुटने में भी चोट लग गयी। वापस आने का रास्ता भी बहुत संकरा था, जिस पर होते हुये वे वापस डाक बंगले पर पहुँचे ।

Word – Meanings:

Cascade = water pouring down very fast – पानी का बहुत तेज़ बहाव;
Cradled = hanged – लटका हुआ;
Abode = a living place – रहने की जगह;
Void = a big hole – एक बड़ा गड्ढा;
Slither = to move by sliding from side to side – जमीन पर दाएँ-बाएँ फिसलते हुए चलना;
Gorge = a very narrow valley – संकरी खाई;
Pebbles = small stones – छोटे पत्थर ।

A.7. Values

India has a rich heritage that includes incredibly beautiful monuments and archaeological masterpieces but it is plainful to note that some people deface them by inscribing on them their initials or names or some messages.

As a responsible citizen of the country, what is your role in protecting these national treasures? Discuss with your partner.
You may use hints given in the box below.

• Monuments – pride of the nation, epitome of glorious past
• Need of the hour – spread awareness
• Sensitise – the youth

Answer:
Very often we have seen that people are in the habit of defacing public monuments. Be it ‘Hawa Mahal’ in Jaipur or ‘Red Fort’ in Delhi – everywhere one can see red stains from betel (paan) spits defacing the walls. Tourists often want to write the dates and year also when they visited the monument. We are spoiling our own national heritage in this manner. Tourist from other nations come to see these monuments only. As a responsible citizen of India, I would like to create awareness about it through social media like Twitter. We can also put up posters and hoardings to educate Indian tourists.

A.8. All the four boys sat on the black rocks ‘to feast their eyes on the view’. ‘Feast one’s eyes’ is an idiomatic expression. It means to look with pleasure. Given below are some other expressions. Match them with their meanings.

Answer:

(a) Ringing us	surrounding us
(b) Hung open	surprised
(c) Get into one’s clothes	to wear one’s clothes
(d) To slither down	to slide down unsteadily

A.9. Imagine yourself as Kamal. Write a page in your diary sharing the thrilling and adventurous experience you had while mountaineering with your friends.
Answer:
Monday, 8 pm
10th March, 20XX

Dear Diary,

Today I came back from Shimla in the morning. I had gone there for a mountaineering expedition with my friends. We all enjoyed so much. We didn’t stay in a hotel but in a camp. It was a new experience for all of us. Then, we went for rock climbing, cycling, hiking and trekking. We had joined a reputed mountaineering club for this. Our instructor was a very friendly person. He taught us all these skills. Then, we also got a chance to go for rafting. None of us had done it before.

Next year also I am planning to join the same mountaineering club during my summer vacations.

Kamal

B.1. It is the month of April. Are you planning your vacation? Have you ever thought of discovering the talents in you? Let us have a look at the activities held at Summer Camps.

Read the advertisement given below. What, information does this advertisement provide? Discuss in groups of four.

Which camp would you like to join and why? Write in the space given below.

Answer:
This advertisement informs us that the Institute of Effective Communication and Leadership will organise summer camps so that the children can be able to explore their talents. Its Adventure Camp will be held at Y’ Campsite, Almora. Children between the age group of 12-16 years can register in it for the activities like hiking, trekking, camp fires, camp games, etc. On the other hand, Day Camp will be held at YMCA, Jai Singh Road. Children between the age group of 3-15 years can register their names for the activities like dancing, singing, karate, picnic, fun games, art, craft, etc.

I would like to join Day Camp because I love dancing and singing, I like to learn karate for my own safety and to help someone in need.

B.2. Let us imagine that you have become a member of Kids’ Own Parliament. You have to send them your views on some subject. Discuss in pairs and write your suggestions/views that you think should reach the Government authorities.

Answer:

B.3. CHILDREN SHOULD BE EDUCATED AT HOME!

The children in Aditi’s class were asked to present a viewpoint in the class. Aditi decided to talk about schools and why children should be educated at home. She made some notes first and then worked out the presentation. Read Aditi’s notes and her presentation.

In my opinion, children should be educated at home because—

1. The government would save a lot of money. It would not need to build schools, pay teachers, pa}’ electricity bills or pay for books and materials. The money
   saved could be spent on far more important things like feeding the homeless, medical research and improving hospitals.
2. Technology has improved so much; children can learn just as much at home from computers. Parents could be trained to use computers to help children to learn.
3. There would be no distraction at home. If children are working in a noisy room, they cannot learn much, but in their own homes they can learn a lot.
4. There would be no teasing. Some children get upset being teased by seniors. This would not be a problem at home.
5. Children would be safer at home. There would be no fear of traffic accidents on way to school or on way home. Parents would not have to worry about their children talking to strangers. —Aditi Guleria

B.4. Based on your reading of Aditi’s viewpoint, answer the following questions.

(a) How would the system of ‘education at home’ aid the government in saving money?
Answer:
Government would not have to build schools, pay the teachers, pay electricity bills, for books, etc.

(b) What role can technology play in facilitating it?
Answer:
Children can learn as much as possible through computers.

(c) Why, according to Aditi, would the children be able to concentrate better if they were educated at home?
Answer:
Yes, there would be less distraction, no teasing and safe environment.

(d) In what way would this system of education ensure greater safety for children?
Answer:
There would be no fear of accidents while going or coming back from school. Children would be safe from strangers also.

B.5. HOTS

Imagine you are Manav, Aditi’s classmate. You have been given the task to convince Aditi about the importance of the traditional way of education system. Write a dialogue between the two of you.
Answer:
Manav : Aditi, I respect your viewpoint but for children life would be quite dull. Aditi: How?
Manav : You see that children enjoy going to school talking and playing with one another.
Aditi : That can be done at home also.
Manav: Then, teachers not only teach subject matter but also help in counselling.
Aditi : Yes, but parents can always go the counsellors.
Manav : Besides, going to schools helps to polish your debating skills, speaking skills.
Aditi : Yes, but children can attend competitions.
Manav : But then who will organise these competitions?
Aditi : So, we can say that schools and teachers are very important to get good education.

B.6. Values

School is a temple of learning. It is like a second home for children, where they spend maximum time apart from their home.
The values taught in school undoubtedly go a long way in the right grooming of their character.
List ten values that you have learned in school.
Answer:

1. In school, I learnt to respect teachers.
2. I learnt team work.
3. I learnt to work with zeal and determination.
4. I learnt discipline.
5. I learnt cooperation.
6. I learnt empathy.
7. I learnt to work hard.
8. I learnt to respect time and deadlines.
9. School also taught me importance of social work.
10. School helped to hone my speaking skills.

B.7. You are Varun Sharma. Imagine that the system of education proposed by Aditi becomes a reality. Write a letter to your friend describing what it would be like to live and study in a world without schools.
Answer:
15th July, 20XX
20, Model Town
Delhi

Dear Alok,

I hope this letter of mine finds you in the best health and high spirits. In your previous letter you asked me about my school.

Well, we don’t have schools now. Government has shut them down. We all are learning through computers. It is very dull and boring. The joy of getting up early, going to school, gossiping with my friends is all lost. Chatting through computers is not the same.

Even classes seem to be very dull. Interacting with teachers was very inspiring. Now, you send a question and keep on waiting for reply, sometimes internet connection is not there which makes it more cumbersome.

I wish that government restarts the schools once again.

Yours friend
Varun Sharma

Every Day is A Holiday Summary

Here the author is telling us about a few interesting holidays we celebrate throughout the world. The first one is the ‘World Hello Day’. On this day we have to say ‘hello’ to at least ten persons. It was started on third Sunday of November in 1973 after the end of a war in the Middle East to encourage world peace. This could be made possible only if people could come up and communicate with one another.

The McCormacks wrote letters in many languages and sent them to the leaders of many countries in the world telling them about the World Hello Day. Then McCormacks got a positive response and a holiday was declared every year on this day. McCormacks were congratulated by Pope John Paul II, former U.S. President Ronald Reagan and Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain for making such an effort to bring people together.

The second one is International Day of the Seal. This day is celebrated on 22 March. Many aquariums and marine research centres around the world celebrate this day on the third weekend of March. This holiday was declared to tell people about the dangers seals face from pollution, oil spills etc. Many exhibitions are put up which educate the people about how the seals live, preserve and rescue and again return to their habitats.

The third one is the Do it Day. This day is celebrated on the first Wednesday in September but it is celebrated as per our convenience. The founder of this day was Ethel Cook. She found this day to do all the pending work and to get every thing organised.

यहाँ लेखक कुछ रोचक अवकाशों के बारे में बताता है जिन्हें हम संसार भर में मनाते हैं। पहला अवकाश ‘वर्ल्ड हैलो डे’ के नाम से जाना जाता है। इस दिन हमें कम से कम दस लोगों को ‘हैलो’ कहना पड़ता है। यह मध्य – य-पूर्व में युद्ध की समाप्ति पर 1973 में नवम्बर के तीसरे रविवार को शुरु हुआ था। इसका उद्देश्य विश्व शान्ति को प्रोत्साहन देना था। ऐसा तभी संभव था जब लोग एक-दूसरे से आपस में मिलकर संवाद स्थापित करें। मेककारमेक्स ने कई भाषाओं में कई देशों के नेताओं को ‘विश्व हैलो डे’ के विषय में जानकारी देने के लिए पत्र लिखे। मेककारमेक्स को बहुत अच्छा अनुभव हुआ और हर वर्ष इस दिन को अवकाश घोषित कर दिया गया। मेककारमेक्स को पोप जॉन पॉल द्वितीय, अमरीकी राष्ट्रपति रोनाल्ड रीगन एवं ग्रेट ब्रिटेन की रानी एलिजावेथ द्वितीय से लोगों को करीब लाने वाले इस विशेष प्रयास के लिए मुबारकबाद के पत्र मिले।

दूसरा दिन अर्न्तराष्ट्रीय शील दिवस है। यह दिन 22 मार्च को मनाया जाता है। पूरे संसार में एक्वेरियम एवं जलीय शोध केन्द्र इसे मार्च की तीसरी सप्ताह को मनाते हैं। यह अवकाश लोगों को यह बताता है कि सील मछली को किस प्रकार प्रदूषण के प्रकोप से बचाया जाय। बहुत सी प्रदर्शनियाँ लोगों को शिक्षित कर यह बताती हैं कि किस प्रकार सील जिंदा रह सकते हैं और उन्हें किस प्रकार बचाया जाय।

तीसरा दिन ‘Do It Today’ है। सितम्बर माह के पहले बुधवार को इसे मनाया जाता है । परन्तु इसे सुविधानुसार किसी भी दिन मनाया जा सकता है। इस दिन की शुरूआत करने वाली महिला का नाम एथल कुक था। उन्होंने इस दिन को सभी अधूरे कार्य पूरे करने एवं हर वस्तु को व्यवस्थित करने का दिन कह कर संबोधित किया।

Word – Meanings:

Encourage = to give support – प्रोत्साहित करना;
Collision = an occasion when things or people collide – वस्तु या व्यक्तियों के बीच टक्कर;
Habitat = the natural home of a plant or an animal – पौधे या पशु का प्राकृतिक आवास;
Eventually = in the end, finally – अंत में|

Twin Melodies Summary

This story is written by Phukan Mitra. The story is about a girl named Shruti whose dream was to become a member of Fusion Band and play at the concert. But her father Nabin Sharma was strictly against the western music. Shruti was the best violinist of the Sangeetika Music School. Her father Guru Nabin Sharma was the principal of the school. Guru Nabin Sharma had gifted Shruti a baby violin when she was just six years old and now after nine years she had been playing so well that the listeners always wanted more from her.

Shruti wanted to tell her father about her dream of playing in a Fusion Band and she decided to tell this tonight to her father. That night when Shruti, her father Nabin Sharma and her mother Leela Devi were having their dinner, Shruti told her father that she wanted to participate in the concert. Her father reminded her that she could not have a public performance more than once in six months and she has had her performance a few weeks ago. Nabin Sharma asked her about the concert. Shruti hesitatingly told her father that it was a fusion group and she wanted to play in that group. Nabin Sharma was very strict as he wanted his music to be as pure as possible.

Shruti told that she had lied to her mother that she was going to attend the science classes. In fact she was in her practice session and the whole group depended upon her for the concert. Nabin Sharma refused Shruti to take part in the concert. The next day she went to tell the members of her band who were in fact her friends that she could not take part in the concert. When she reached there everybody was practising for the concert. Shruti wanted to play once for the last time. As they finished up they heard a sound of applause. Shruti was astonished when she saw that her parents Nabin Sharma and Leela Devi were standing there and clapping to their performance.

Nabin was very excited that Shruti has kept the spirit of their raga alive. She has not mixed both the music. Everybody in Shruti’s band was very excited to hear their praise. Shruti wondered about change in her father’s mind. Nabin Master confessed before Shruti that it was her mother Leela Devi who reminded him that once Nabin Sharma himself had argued with his father to take up a western instrument just like Shruti. But now after listening to band Nabin Sharma was confident that their show is going to be a great success. He invited all the members of Shruti’s group to come and practice in their school as all his fears of losing Shruti were baseless.

यह कहानी फुकान मित्रा द्वारा लिखी गयी है। यह कहानी श्रुति नाम की लड़की के बारे में है जो Fusion Band का सदस्य बनना चाहती है। उसके पिता नवीन शर्मा पाश्चात्य संगीत के विरोधी थे। श्रुति संगीतिका स्कूल की बहुत ही अच्छी वायलिन वादक थी। उसके पिता नवीन शर्मा उसी स्कूल के प्रधानाध्यापक थे। नवीन शर्मा ने श्रुति को छह वर्ष की उम्र में ही वायलिन भेंट किया था और अब नौ साल के बाद वह इतनी कुशल हो चुकी थी कि श्रोता उसे सुनने के बाद पुन: सुनना चाहते थे।

आज वह अपने पिता को अपनी इच्छा के बारे में बताना चाहती है। उस रात जब उसके पिता नवीन शर्मा, माँ लीला देवी और श्रुति खाना खा रहे थे तब श्रुति ने उनके सामने सामूहिक संगीत में हिस्सा लेने की इच्छा व्यक्त की। इस बार उसके पिता याद दिलाते हैं कि वह छह महीने में केवल एक बार ही प्रदर्शन कर सकती है और कुछ हफ्ते पहले ही उसने संगीत प्रदर्शनी में भाग लिया था। नवीन शर्मा ने श्रुति से प्रदर्शन के बारे में पूछा। इस पर श्रुति ने बताया कि यह एक फ्यूजन समूह है जिसमें वह भाग लेना चाहती है।

श्रुति ने बताया कि वह बहुत हफ्तों से इसमें अभ्यास करने जा रही है। उसने नवीन शर्मा को यह भी बताया कि उसका पूरा समूह उस पर निर्भर करता है। नवीन शर्मा बहुत ही कठोर व्यक्ति थे। नवीन शर्मा ने श्रुति से उसमें भाग लेने से साफ इन्कार कर दिया। अगले दिन श्रुति ने फैसला किया कि वह अपने दोस्तों को बता देगी कि वह उनके समूह में हिस्सा नहीं ले सकती। जब वह अपने समूह के सदस्यों के बीच पहुँची तो उसने पाया कि सभी तन्मयता से अभ्यास कर रहे थे। उसने सोचा कि वह भी आखिरी बार वायलिन बजा ले। उसने तन्मयता से चिकारा बजाया ।

अभ्यास खत्म होने पर उन्होंने देखा कि नवीन शर्मा और लीला देवी तालियाँ बजाकर उनके प्रदर्शन की सराहना कर रहे थे। श्रुति को हैरान देखकर नवीन शर्मा ने बताया कि यह सब उसकी माँ लीला देवी के कारण हुआ है। लीला देवी ने उन्हें अहसास करवाया कि वे भी एक बार पाश्चात्य संगीत बजाना चाहते थे। अब नवीन शर्मा को इस बात का विश्वास था कि उनका प्रदर्शन जरूर सफल होगा। उन्होंने श्रुति के समूह के सभी सदस्यों को अपने संगीत विद्यालय में अभ्यास करने के लिए बुलाया। नवीन शर्मा श्रुति से बहुत प्रसन्न थे, क्योंकि अब उनके सभी तरह के भय खत्म हो चुके थे।

My First Visit to The Ballet Summary

This is an interesting poem of a girl who went to see ‘the Ballet’ for the first time. At that time she was hardly ten. She went to the theatre with her friend Lyuba. They took their tickets and settled into their seats. The girl was very excited. She only wanted to see the ballet caring about nothing. She always had the desire of watching a ballet. Her dream was going to come true that day. She wanted to see a lovely fairy who would come on the stage wearing a golden crown and a white dress. She sat with her eyes wide, opened, holding the ticket very tightly in her hand.

Suddenly, the trumpets and drum started beating. Hearing this both of them fell down on their seats. The girl realised that she didn’t have the tickets in her hand. The fairies had already come on the stage. They were dancing but she didn’t look at them. She was only searching the tickets everywhere on the floor. She crawled on the floor to the seventh row. The people wondered about who is crawling on the floor. She found the ticket but by then the ballet was over. Every one was going outside saying that it was a lovely ballet. She also decided to say the same to the school girls who would ask her about the ballet.

यह एक लड़की के बारे में रोचक कविता है जो पहली बार नृत्य देखने गयी। उस समय वह सिर्फ दस वर्ष की थी। वह अपनी मित्र ल्यूवा के साथ थियेटर गयी। टिकटें खरीदकर वे अपनी सीटों पर बैठ गयी। लड़की नृत्य देखने के लिए बहुत उत्सुक थी। उसकी नृत्य देखने की इच्छा पूरी होने जा रही थी। टिकट को हाथ में पकड़कर वह अपनी आँखें खोलकर मंच पर आने वाली परी का इंतजार करने लगी जिसे सफेद कपड़ों एवं सुनहरे मुकुट में होना चाहिए था।

अचानक तुरही और ढोल बजने लगे जिसे सुनकर वे दोनों अपने सीट से नीचे गिर गयी। लड़की ने महसूस किया कि टिकट उसके हाथ में नहीं था। परियाँ मंच पर आ चुकी थी। वे नृत्य कर रही थी लेकिन उसने उनको नहीं देखा। वह केवल अपनी टिकट ढूंढ रही थी। वह रेंगकर सातवीं कतार तक पहुँच गयी। लोगों को आश्यर्च हो रहा था कि फर्स पर कौन रेंग रहा है। नृत्य समाप्त होने के बाद उसको टिकट मिली। सभी दर्शक बाहर निकलते हुये नृत्य की प्रशंसा कर रहे थे। उसने भी स्कूल में लड़कियों को ऐसा ही बताने का निर्णय किया कि नृत्य बहुत अच्छा था।

Word – Meanings:

Blared = sounded loudly – तेज आवाज करना;
Tripping = moving with quick, gentle steps – जल्दी परन्तु सहजता से कदम उठाना;
Rumbled = made a low heavy grumbling or rolling noise – किसी वस्तु के लुढ़कने से होने वाला शोर;

Answer:

HEAL THE WORLD – NEED OF THE HOUR

In today’s time, there is a great need to heal the world. We all should live with harmony and love. We should try to help each other in the hour of need. Today we all are so ignorant that we hardly bother about others’ ambitions and desire. We all are busy in fulfilling our ambition. We don’t know why people have become so single-minded. Why do they forget that by helping each other they can achieve their ambition properly. If we don’t understand each other’s problem then how we can expect that our next generation will help each other. I would like to say that this is not a right way to live. In this way we are only inviting frustration and mental stress. At last I will only say that in order to live peacefully and successfully we should help each other, love each other and support each other. Only then this world can become a better place to live in.

C
C.1. Work with your partner. Write down what your views are about magic as a performing art. Is it a reality or an illusion?
Answer:
If you ask me about magic, I am of the opinion that magic is nothing but an illusion. Magic is not a reality, it just creates a psychic balance with the environment which makes the audience think that the magician is doing a magic in reality. It is nothing but a science that controls our mind and will-power. But people think that the magician has some supernatural power which is not the reality. Thus magic is merely an illusion of the mind.

He Really is the World’s Greatest Magician Summary

P.C. Sorcar is a very famous magician who is known for his magic in the country and abroad. He was having a show in the New Empire Theatre, Calcutta. We changed our flight to see his show as we could not afford to miss the show. When we reached the theatre we saw that P.C. Sorcar was rehearsing on back stage. The rehearsal took him 40 hours. P. C. Sorcar made us sit in the box office where we saw that all the advance booking seats were full. We walked around the city and found that everybody knew P.C. Sorcar there.

On the opening night the house was full and all types of people from all the regions had come to see the show. The show was two and half hours long and was the best show we had ever seen in our lives. Sorcar has an ability to make people laugh even in the most unlikely situation which holds the audience for a long time. Water from India’ which is produced by Sorcar with a large number of assistants is also a beautiful show. In this, a priest, wearing an orange robe comes in with a silver pitcher on a tray and calls Sorcar that it was a water from India.

Sorcar then calls upon people from Indian region and fills up their glass. His ‘Broomstick’ is also mind blowing. In this, there is the scene of the street in the city. It is dawn and people are just moving round. There is a little boy who is sculling newspaper on crutches. Sorcar took the boys’ crutches and put the boy upon it. Then he took another boy’s hula hoop and put it over the boy. In the end, the same boy threw the crutches away and skipped off the stage. Such shows are beautifully presented by Sorcar.

बाहर जाकर जब हमने लोगों से पी०सी० सरकार के बारे में पूछा तो पाया कि सभी लोग उन्हें जानते हैं। उनका शो देखने के लिए हर तरह के लोग भिन्न-भिन्न जगहों से आये हुये थे। सरकार में लोगों को विपरीत परिस्थितियों में भी हँसाने की क्षमता है और इसे देख कर दर्शक मंत्रमुग्ध हो जाते हैं। उनका पहला शो ढाई घण्टे का था। Water from India’ उनका एक खूबसूरत शो है जिसमें एक पंडित उनके पास एक चाँदी का लोटा लेकर आता है और सरकार को बताता है कि यह भारत का पानी है। इसके बाद भारत के विभिन्न क्षेत्रों से संबंधित लोग सरकार के द्वारा बुलाये जाते हैं और उनके खाली गिलास भरे जाते हैं।

उनका ‘Broomstick’ भी बहुत अच्छा शो है। इसमें शहर के किसी गली का दृश्य है । सुबह का समय है और लोग इधर-इधर घूम रहे है। इसमें एक छोटा-सा बालक बैसाखियों के सहारे अखबार बेचता हुआ आता है। सरकार उससे उसकी बैसाखियाँ लेकर बैठा देता है। वह दूसरे लड़के से उसका hula hoop लेकर उसके ऊपर डाल देता है। उसके बाद वह लंगड़ा लड़का बिना बैसाखियों के अपने पैरों पर चलता हुआ बाहर चला जाता है। सरकार अपना हर शो दिलोजान से करते हैं। यही कारण है कि उनका हर शो सफल होता है।

Entertainment Summary

This poem is about a monkey show which is done for the entertainment of people. The monkey show is going on. A small girl is holding a string of the monkeys in one hand and a little baby in other hand. There are two tiny monkeys who are wearing red and purple coloured clothes. Their master starts the show beating the drums and calling various tricks to attract the crowd and gather money. As the show proceeds the crowd also increases. Everybody watches the show happily. The little baby starts crying and the game comes to an end. Now the time comes to collect the money but as the crowd realises that it is time for giving money, everybody starts moving. Only a few give a petty amount. Nobody is ready to part with their money.

यह कविता एक बन्दर के तमाशे की है जो लोगों के मनोरंजन के लिए आयोजित किया जाता है । बन्दर का तमाशा शुरू हो गया है। एक छोटी सी लड़की एक हाथ में बंदर की डोर पकड़े हुये है और दूसरे हाथ में एक छोटा सा बच्चा है। दो छोटे से बंदर लाल एवं बैंगनी रंग के कपड़े पहने हुये हैं। उनका मालिक दर्शकों को आकर्षित करने के लिए ड्रम बजाता है ताकि वे तमाशे को देखकर उसे कुछ पैसे दें। तमाशा शुरू होता है, भीड़ एकत्रित होती है। सभी लोग तमाशे को खुशी से देखते हैं। छोटे बच्चे के रोने के साथ तमाशा समाप्त हो जाता है। अब समय पैसे इकट्ठे करने का है। भीड़ को आभास हो जाता है। केवल कुछ लोग पैसे देते हैं और अन्य लोग वहाँ से निकल लेते हैं।

My first day in the new school was full of new experiences. Everybody in the school was very kind, affectionate and helpful towards me. As it was my first day, I didn’t have my books. So I copied all the things that the teacher had taught. When the teacher asked my name I got nervous. I was not able to speak and at this everybody started laughing at me. On the first day only I made two friends and they are still very good friends of mine. Teachers of the school are also very polite and encouraging in nature.

Our school does not want that the children only excel in the field of education but it also gives equal weightage to the sports development. The coaches of the school are also very helpful and understanding. They do their best to teach the pupils in perfect way. That is why our school wins a number of awards every year. My friends are outstanding. They are always ready to help us. From time to time our school also organizes an educational trip for the students. Our school is impartial while dealing with students.

I got admitted to the school when I was three years old. Yes, it was very difficult for me and my parents to get me admitted to this school. This is the best school in the town. So there was a long queue of parents who were always interested in seeking admission of their wards to this school. My parents have really worked hard to get me admitted in this school as they had to stand in long queues to get only an admission form for me. After submitting the admission form, they were asked all sorts of questions. Another list of the selected children was displayed in which date and time were also mentioned for the interview of the children. There were a lot of students who were questioned one by one. Being a shy boy, my parents were really tensed whether I would give answers or not. But by the God’s grace and my parents’ hard work, I managed anyhow and I got admitted to the school.

In the school, Ramu met his old friend Balu whose father had also been transferred to Tiruchi.

All the boys were called in one by one for the interview. Ramu was the last candidate to be interviewed. The clerk took him to the interview room where three men were sitting round a table. The headmaster told Ramu to have a seat. The first question which the headmaster asked Ramu was about his previous school and the reason as to why Ramu wanted to get admission to this school. Ramu told them that his father had been transferred here due to which he had to leave his previous school which he liked very much. The next question the headmaster asked was about the best thing of the town. Ramu promptly replied that the Uchipallayyar Kovil, the temple of Lord Ganesha from where one could have a grand view of the town, was the best thing of the town.

The headmaster quickly asked how many steps did he take to climb up the temple. Ramu quickly answered. He took the same number of steps to climb up, he had taken to come down. The next question was asked about his fun. The last question which was put up to Ramu was about his short height. Ramu replied without hesitation that nobody in the family was tall. He also told them that once when his father was put up the same question by his boss he replied that his legs were long enough to reach the ground. Hearing his smart reply, the headmaster him the form and told to gave deposit the fees.

यह नाटक रामू नामक लड़के के बारे में है जो कि विद्यालय की प्रवेश परीक्षा की तैयारी कर रहा था। रामू तिरूची नामक कस्बे में छठी कक्षा में प्रवेश लेने की तैयारी कर रहा था जहाँ उसके पिता का स्थानांतरण हुआ था। जिस स्कूल में रामू प्रवेश लेना चाहता था, उसमें केवल पाँच सीटें खाली थी और बीस लड़के उसके लिए परीक्षा देने आये थे। रामू की बहन जिसे वह अक्का कहकर बुलाता था, उसे अपनी तैयारी बहुत अच्छे से करने का सुझाव दिया, क्योंकि प्रवेश पाने के लिए रामू को उनके हर सवाल का जवाब आना चाहिए था। रामू को पूरा विश्वास था कि उसे विद्यालय में प्रवेश अवश्य मिलेगा। जब रामू विद्यालय पहुँचा तो उसने देखा कि बहुत से लड़के परीक्षा के लिए कतार में बैठे थे। वहाँ उसे अपना पुराना मित्र बालू मिल गया जिसके पिता का स्थानांतरण भी तिरूची में हुआ था।

सभी छात्रों को साक्षात्कार के लिए बारी-बारी से बुलाया गया। रामू साक्षात्कार के लिए अन्तिम छात्र था। जब वह साक्षात्कार कक्ष में पहुँचा तो उसे तीन लोग बैठे हुये दिखे। पहला सवाल रामू से प्रधानाध्यापक ने उसके पिछले स्कूल के विषय में किया। जिसके जवाब में रामू ने बताया कि उसे अपना पिछला विद्यालय अपने पिता के स्थानांतरण के कारण छोड़ना पड़ा। अगले सवाल में प्रधानाध्यापक ने तिरूची की सबसे अच्छी जगह के बारे में गणेश का मन्दिर तिरूची की सबसे अच्छी जगह है जहाँ से पूछा। रामू ने उन्हें बताया कि उचिपलायार कोविल भगवान पूरे कस्बे का नजारा लिया जा सकता है।

यह सुनते ही उन्होंने रामू से पूछा कि मंदिर तक जाने के लिए कितनी सीढ़ियों का प्रयोग किया गया। रामू ने उन्हें बताया कि ठीक उतनी ही, जितनी सीढ़ियों का प्रयोग उसने मन्दिर से उतरने में किया। अगला प्रश्न रामू से उसके मनोरंजन के बारे में पूछा गया। रामू ने उस प्रश्न का भी समुचित एवं सटीक उत्तर दिया। रामू से निर्णायकों ने अन्तिम प्रश्न उसके छोटे कद के बारे में पूछा। रामू ने बिना किसी झिझक के उत्तर दिया कि उसके परिवार में सभी लोगों का कद छोटा है। उसने उन्हें यह भी बताया कि एक बार उसके पिता के अधिकारी ने उनसे ठीक यही प्रश्न किया था। उन्होंने कहा कि उसके पाँव जमीन पर पहुँचने के लिए काफी हैं। उसकी हाजिर जवाबी को सुनकर प्रधानाध्यापक ने रामू को फार्म पकड़ा दिया और उसे अपनी फीस जमा करवाने के लिए कहा।

Girl Gang Summary

This story is about the friendship of a group of girls. In this story the author shows how all of them help one another to find the solution of their problems. On one Saturday afternoon Alice was going for shopping in a train. She saw that her classmate Kirsty was also travelling in the same train. A ticket checker came to check the ticket. She told the checker that she might have lost the ticket and had no money to buy another ticket. The checker told her that she would be taken to authority in that case. Kirsty begged before him to forgive her but it was of no use.

One day after school when Alice was about to leave for her home Kirsty came running to her and told her if their geography teacher whom they called the Old Sour Breath comes asking about Kirsty, Alice should pretend that she had not seen her. When geography teacher Mr. Sawyer came and asked about Kirsty, she simply lied that she had not seen her. The teacher took her to the classroom to show what Kirsty had done to the class. All the maps and displays were torn into pieces and everything was lying on the floor. When she came out, she saw that Kirsty was waiting for her outside the school gate with her four friends.

Alice told Kirsty that she had told nothing to Mr. Sawyer. Kirsty told that it was a revenge on Mr. Sawyer as he took girls as inferior one. Next day when Alice opened her geography book she found a note from Kirsty to meet her urgently at 8 o’clock in the park at night. At night the girls assembled in the park. A girl named Sandra was their leader. They all gathered there to take revenge from the ticket collector. They had a bag full of apples which they bombarded on the conductor’s house and ran away. Kirsty told Alice not to utter a word about the incident in front of anybody. Now Alice was the new member of the girl’s power gang.

निरीक्षक ने उसे नयी टिकट लेने के लिए कहा तो क्रिस्टी ने कहा कि नयी टिकट लेने के लिए उसके पास पैसे नहीं हैं। निरीक्षक ने उसे अपने अधिकारियों के पास ले जाने को कहा। क्रिस्टी ने बहुत विनती की परन्तु निरीक्षक ने उसे क्षमा नहीं किया। एक दिन जब विद्यालय की छुट्टी के बाद एलिस घर जाने की तैयारी कर रही थी तो उसी समय क्रिस्टी ने उसके पास आकर कहा कि अगर उनके भूगोल के शिक्षक उसके बारे में कुछ पूछें तो उनसे कह दे कि उसने उसे नहीं देखा। थोड़ी ही देर में भूगोल के शिक्षक जिसे वे Old Sour Breath कहते थे वहाँ आये और क्रिस्टी के विषय में पूछताछ करने लगे । एलिस ने कहा कि उसने उसे नहीं देखा है।

यह सुनकर वे एलिस को अपने साथ कक्षा दिखाने के लिए ले गये। वहाँ जाकर एलिस ने देखा कि सभी मानचित्र कक्षा में इधर-उधर बिखरे हुये थे। जब ऐलिस बाहर आयी तो उसने देखा कि क्रिस्टी चार अन्य लड़कियों के साथ स्कूल के बाहर उसका इंतजार कर रही थीं। एलिस ने क्रिस्टी को बताया कि वह सब उसने Mr. Sawyer से बदला लेने के लिए किया क्योंकि वह लड़कियों को हीन समझते थे। अगले दिन जब ऐलिस ने अपनी कक्षा में भूगोल की किताब खोली तो उसमें क्रिस्टी का लिखा हुआ एक पर्चा पाया जिस पर क्रिस्टी ने ऐलिस को रात आठ बजे बहुत ही जरूरी काम के लिए बुलाया था।

रात को वहाँ पर पहले से बहुत सी लड़कियाँ एकत्रित थी । सान्ड्रा नाम की लड़की उनकी नेता थी। उन्होंने ऐलिस को बताया कि आज वे वहाँ उस निरीक्षक से बदला लेने के लिए जमा हुई थी जिसने रेल में क्रिस्टी की बात नहीं सुनी थी। उनके पास सेबों से भरा हुआ एक थैला था जिससे उन्होंने निरीक्षक के घर पर बमवारी की और वहाँ से भाग गयी। क्रिस्टी ने ऐलिस से यह सब किसी से भी न कहने का वादा लिया। इसके बाद उन्होंने ऐलिस को भी अपने समूह का सदस्य बना लिया।

Tape Script

Aerodynamic Mishap

I made a paper aeroplane
It really was the best,
I took my time to make it right
To that I can attest!

I’d planned it all so thoroughly,
I’d sketched from either side,
I knew that all would be amazed
To see it swoop and dive,

But its first flight was not too planned
Though it soared up high,
The teacher turned, it crashed and burned
And hit her in the eye!

My plane, screwed up, went in the bin,
All agreed it was a shame.
But my teacher’s got a big black eye,
And I’m the one to blame!
Answer:
Do it yourself.

The Inside – Out Stocking Summary

Once upon a time there was a little unlucky boy named Rex. He always had some or the other reason for him being unlucky such as he would fall down while running or loose a pound from the hole of his pocket. Rex was very good at running races. Once a sports meet was being organised in his school, in which all the sports events such as running, obstacle race and other games were going to take place. Many schools were also taking part in the sports meet. Rex’s headmaster asked him to take part in running race. Then he told his headmaster about how unlucky he was.

He told his headmaster that on that day he would surely have something due to which he would not be able to take part in the race. Lucy, Rex’s sister was very concerned about her brother. She wanted her brother to take part in the race as she was confident that her brother would win the race if he took part. In their own town, there lived an old lady Mother Brown. Lucy visited her and asked how she could bring luck to her brother. Mother Brown suggested that a black cat would bring luck to him. But there was no black cat in their village.

Then Mother Brown told her if on getting up in the morning you put on one of your stockings inside out without noticing then it might make you lucky for that day. Lucy had an idea in her mind. She walked back home and just a night before the sports day she waited for Rex to fall asleep and turned one of his stockings inside out. In the morning Rex put on his stocking inside out without noticing. Lucy and Rex went to the school and Rex won all the races without any obstruction. He was very happy. Lucy thought that she will do the same thing always for his brother to make him lucky. After that Rex usually won all the games and had many lucky days.

मदर ब्राउन ने सुझाया कि अगर रेक्स सुबह उठकर बिना देखे उल्टा मौजा पहनकर प्रतियोगिता में चला जाय तो वह जीत जायेगा। लूसी ने रेक्स के सोने के बाद उसका एक मौज़ा उल्टा कर दिया। रेक्स ने उल्टा मौज़ा पहन लिया और वे दोनों स्कूल के लिए निकल पड़े। रेक्स ने उस दिन सारी प्रतियोगितायें बिना किसी बाधा के जीत ली। रेक्स उस दिन बहुत ही प्रसन्न था । लूसी ने मन ही मन सोचा कि वह हमेशा अपने भाई के लिए ऐसा ही करेगी। इसके बाद रेक्स के जीवन में ऐसे बहुत से भाग्यशाली दिन आये और उसने बहुत सी खेल प्रतियोगिता जीती।
