    The Village Schoolmaster Questions & Answers Question 1: Where was the school located? Answer: The school was situated in a small village next to the irregular fence that was situated along the edge of the village. It fringed the village path with full blossomed, beautiful but ornamental furze. Question 2: How did the children view the schoolmaster? Answer: The children viewed the schoolmaster as severe and stern. They all knew him very well and would gauge his mood by merely looking at his expressions at the start of the day. They would laugh at his jokes to keep him cheerful. The children, however, respected him because he was kind and was dedicated to teaching them.

Question 4: Explain ‘straggling fence’ and ‘unprofitably gay’. Answer: The fence beside which the school building was situated is described as ‘straggling’ which means that it was dilapidated and probably leaning over. The phrase ‘unprofitable gay’ suggests that the flowers that were blooming beautifully were not being admired or appreciated so, this beauty served no purpose. The Village Schoolmaster Questions & Answers Question 5: Why did the villagers regard the schoolmaster in wonder? Answer: The villagers were awed by the knowledge of the schoolmaster. They wondered how he could read, write, calculate, measure tides and at the same time be so skilled in arguing. They would wonder how his small head could hold so much of knowledge. Question 6: In the line – “There, in his noisy mansion, skill’d to rule”, what is meant by skill’d to rule? Answer: It means the person who is very talented or the person born to rule the world on the basis of his skills. Question 7: Read the lines given below and answer the following questions: “Well had the boding tremblers……………………his morning face”. (a) Who are referred to as tremblers? Answer: Predicting students are referred to as tremblers. (b) Why schoolmaster’s face is referred as ‘morning face’? Answer: By morning face, the poet means that the schoolmaster had an expressive face and his pupils could easily read his mood. (c) What did the students learn by merely gazing at his face? Answer: By gazing at his face, the students could easily predict whether their day is going to be good or bad. Question 8: Read the lines given below and answer the following questions: “I knew him well………………….. disasters in his morning face.” (a) Who is “he” in the above lines? Answer: ‘He’ is the village school master. (b) What is the “skill” that the parson had? Answer: The parson, just like the schoolmaster had very good oratory skills. The Village Schoolmaster Questions & Answers Question 9: How did the students adapt themselves to the varying moods of the school master? Answer: The students were afraid of the schoolmaster and were sufficiently clever to assess from his face whether that day would bring any misfortune or not. The children laughed at his jokes with pretended joy. If they noticed any sign of anger on his face they would spread the news throughout the classroom. Question 10: Who and Why did they laugh with counterfeited glee? Answer: The undisciplined and idle students laughed with counterfeited glee. This is because the master used to tell many jokes and even if the students did not feel like laughing at those jokes yet they pretended to be happy or merry to impress their teacher. Question 11: Describe the village schoolmaster’s skills which made the villagers wonder. Answer: The villagers were in awe of him because he could write and calculate too. He was skilled in predicting weather patterns and tides. It was also assumed that he was an accurate surveyor who could determine borders easily. He could also debate intelligently. Question 12: Read the lines given below and answer the following questions: “But past is all his fame…………………….triumph’d is forgot.” (a) Who is the poet referring to in these lines? Answer: The poet Oliver Goldsmith is referring to the village schoolmaster in these lines. (b) What does the poet mean by these lines?  Answer: In these lines, the poet fondly remembers the glories of the village schoolmaster and tells that the schoolmaster does not teach anymore but all that is left in that spot is the past fame of the man. Question 13: Write the character sketch of the village schoolmaster. Answer: The village schoolmaster was a strict disciplinarian. He was a man with a stern appearance and every defaulter knew that there would be severe consequences of misbehaving in his class. He would often crack jokes and his mood was evident by his facial expressions. He was kind-hearted and had an immense joy for learning. He was good in math, geography and was able to read, write and had good skills in arguing his point of view. He was loved and respected by all the villagers.

    Bamboos contribute to Assam’s economy as greatly as the tea businesses do because of the vast availability of it in the forests enables the local to procure it at dirt-cheap cost and sell to a variety of locations with a massive amount of profits. Once cutting the raw plants, the bamboo craftsmen in Assam turn them in pieces of art essentially with some everyday utilization value in a variety of shapes and sizes.

    Duttada was an amateur astronomer. Star gazing was his hobby. But he had a scientific attitude. His secret ambition in life was to discover a comet or a shooting star. After his retirement he got the funds to buy a telescope and leisure enough to watch the stars. He named his eight-inch telescope Dibya-chakshu. He was successful in search. He discovered a comet heading towards the earth. It was called Dutta comet. The news spread world over. James Forsyth predicted that the comet would collide with the earth and destroy it. Dutta’s wife, Indrani Debi, was afraid that the comet would cause ruin. She arranged a Yajna to pacify the evil spirit behind the comet. But the world scientists prepared a plan to make a nuclear explosion and deflect the comet from its path. The operation was named Project Light Brigade. It was successful. The world was saved. But Indrani Debi gave all credit to the holy yajna she got performed.

    The Summit Within- Summary Major H.P.S. Ahluwalia was a member of the first successful Indian expedition to Mount Everest in 1965. In this lesson he tells us how he felt as he stood on the Everest. Standing on the Everest, Major Ahluwalia felt very humble. Physically he was very tired. Instead of being very happy, he was jubilant and sad. He was not sure of the reason. He wondered if this sadness was because now there was no higher peak to climb. Ahluwalia says that after climbing Everest, he felt a deep sense of joy. This joy was to last the rest of his life. He also felt thankful to God.Ahluwalia had climbed a summit but he thought of another summit. This was the summit of mind. He came to the conclusion that in order to climb a summit, a person needed three qualities. These are—endurance, persistence and will power. It is only with the help of these qualities that a man overcomes obstacles. The climbing of a summit is thus a demonstration of these three qualities. That is why men take delight in overcoming obstacles. Ahluwalia says that a question arises why he chose to climb Everest. He says that the first reason is that he has always loved mountains. Everest is the highest and the mightiest of them all. It is a great struggle against rock and ice. So after climbing this summit there is a joy of having done something which only a few can do. Looking at the peak from a distance, Ahluwalia is transported to another world. He has a mystical feeling. In fact the difficulties of climbing Everest are huge. But this is what attracts him to it. It is a challenge that he finds difficult to resist. Ahluwalia says that the call to face the challenge of overcoming the obstacles was irresistible. Climbing Everest is not just a physical achievement or conquest. It brings fulfilment and fame. Besides, the experience is emotional and spiritual also. Climbing mountains also gives us lessons in comradeship. He gives an example. While climbing two persons have to share a rope. One climber holds the rope firmly while the other climber cuts the steps in the hard ice. Then he belays and the other climber inches his way up. Famous climbers have left records of the help given by others. A single man cannot simply think of being a climber. It’s not only the physical difficulties which will deter him. The difficulties are emotional too. In all those moments the comrades draw inspiration from each other. Looking down from Everest, the climber feels that the effort was worthwhile. It is an ennobling experience. The climber bows down to God. Ahluwalia left on Everest a picture of Guru Nanak. Rawat left a picture of Goddess Durga. Phu Dorji left a relic of the Buddha. Edmund Hillary had buried a cross under a cairn in the snow. These are all symbols not of conquest but of reverence. So the experience of being on the Everest changes a man completely. Each man has within him his own mountain peak. It is fearful and unscalable. Yet no one else but that man has to do it himself. Climbing this inside peak is like climbing Everest too. The effects are the same. Both the climbs change you. The internal summit is perhaps higher than Everest.
