The Beggar Extra Questions and Answers Short Answer Type Question 1. What is the excuse that the beggar gives Sergei for begging when he meets him for the second time? Answer: He says he had been a village schoolmaster for eight years but had lost his job due to intrigues at his place of work. He had not eaten for three days and had no money for lodging. Question 2. How did Sergei respond to the beggar’s request for money? Answer: He looked closely at him and recognised him as the same person who he had seen on Sadovya Street a few days back, when he had introduced himself as a student who had been expelled. Question 3. Why was Sergei disgusted with the beggar? Answer: He was disgusted at his dishonesty because he had seen him on another street pretending that he had was an expelled student in need of money, and now he claimed to be a village schoolmaster who had lost his job due to intrigues at the school. His lies disgusted Sergei. Question 4. What was the beggar’s real identity? Answer: He had been part of the Russian choir, but had lost his place there due to drunkenness. Question 5. How does the beggar react to Sergei’s offer to chop wood for him in return for money? Answer: The beggar accepts the offer readily and follows Sergei home. He says that he can’t refuse because in those days even skilled woodcutters found themselves sitting without food and work. Question 6. Who did Sergei hand over the beggar to on reaching home? What were his instructions? Answer: He called his cook, Olga, and handed over the beggar to her. He asked her to take him to the wood-shed and get him to chop some wood. Question 7. Why has the beggar been described as a scarecrow? Answer: He has been described as a scarecrow because he was as thin as a scarecrow and shabbily dressed in ill- fitting, mismatched clothes. Question 8. What was the real reason the beggar agreed to work for the writer? Answer: The real reason was that he was a proud man and he felt ashamed at having been trapped by his own words in front of Sergei. He wanted to prove that he could do honest work when given the opportunity. Question 9. How did the narrator realise that the beggar had not come willingly with him? Answer: The narrator realised this from his gait. He shrugged his shoulders as if in perplexity and went irresolutely after the cook. It was also obvious that he was unhealthy and under the influence of liquor. It did not seem as though he had the strength to chop wood. Question 10. How did Olga react to the beggar? Answer: She glanced at the beggar with anger, shoved him aside with her elbow, unlocked the shed and angrily banged the door. She then flung down an axe at his feet, spat angrily and appeared to be scolding him. Question 11. How do we know that the beggar had no previous experience of cutting wood? Answer: We know this from the manner in which he pulled a billet of wood towards him and tapped it feebly with his axe. At first, the billet fell and then the beggar tapped it with the axe again cautiously, as if afraid of hurting himself with the axe. Question 12. How did Sergei react to the beggar’s efforts at chopping wood? Answer: He felt a little sorry and ashamed of himself for having set a spoiled, drunken and sick man to work in the cold weather. Question 13. Why did the beggar appear at Sergei’s house a month later? Answer: He reappeared on the first of the next month because the narrator had told him he could come back and cut wood for him in return for half a rouble. Question 14. What change took place in the beggar’s visits after his second visit? Answer: He started appearing more often at the narrator’s house and took on odd jobs like shovelling snow, putting the wood in the woodshed in order, beating the dust out of rugs and mattresses, etc. Question 15. How was the beggar rewarded for the odd jobs he did at the narrator’s house? Answer: He was given twenty to forty copecks for the jobs he performed, and was once even given a pair of old trousers as a reward and payment. Question 16. What did Sergei expect the beggar to do when he called him while moving to another house? Did he behave as expected? Answer: When he was moving to another house, Sergei called the beggar and asked him to help with the packing and hauling of the furniture. However, the beggar did not do anything except hang around, sober, yet gloomy and silent. Question 17. Why do you think the beggar was so gloomy and silent when Sergei was moving houses? Answer: He was probably upset that he would no longer be able to do odd jobs at his house and make the money he had been earning. Question 18. What did Sergei offer Lushkoff? Why did he do so? Answer: Sergei offered Lushkoff a job with his friend, who needed someone to do some copying work. Since Lushkoff knew how to write, Sergei offered him this job.
