Age eleven is so important for the poet because at this age he would be able to mark the difference between what is a fact and what is a fiction. At the age of eleven, the poet realizes that his childhood has gone. He has become much rational at this stage of his life. He has learned many new concepts and known about the facts of the world. The poet also feels scared and is worried because he thinks that with the end of his childhood, he has lost his innocence and purity of thoughts.

This poem symbolizes the ''HARDSHIPS IN LIFE''. It is an afternoon in the month of september and there is silence. Suddenly a goldfinch appears and the silence breaks into sound of twitching of wings and chirping.
Mother goldfinch has brought food for her babies, the engine of the bird's family. Movement of goldfinch is so smooth. She is working to provide nutrition to the family. 
In the end, goldfinch again flies in the sky leaving the laburnum again into silence.

The goldfinch came to laburnum tree to build a nest on it so that she can feed her young ones. As soon as she arrived on the tree with her family, the tree became lively. The chitterings of the young ones and their movement brought life in the tree. The arrival of the goldfinch brought a lot of positive changes in the tree. With the coming of the bird, the tree started to live and prosper again.

A Chinese painter does not want the viewer to choose a single viewpoint. His landscape is not a ‘real’ one, and you can enter it from any point and then travel in it. The artist creates a path for the viewer’s eyes to travel up and down, then back again, in a leisurely movement. However, a European painter wants the viewer to borrow his eyes and look at a particular landscape exactly as he saw it, from a specific angle. His painting is very much realistic and he expects the viewer to understand it by just looking at it.

"the sea, which appears to have changed less. Washed their terribly transient feet."

Human life is transient; it is here today and gone tomorrow. But, the sea remains the same. In these lines, the poet says that the sea has changed little over the years while the poet's mother has been dead for years now.

Margo Minco has very aptly and logically titled this short story ‘The Address’. The narrator and her mother were victims of the war. The upheaval forced them to be wanderers. They had no permanent address worth the name. All the ‘nice things’ were at No. 46, Marconi Street. They aroused nostalgic feelings of former times. But their true owner was no more in the world. The narrator resolved to forget them and also the address where they lay.

When she died the sparrows express their sorrow by not chirrup. They gathered in thousand around her dead body. The sparrows also express their love for author's grandmother by not eating bread crumbs thrown to them by author's mother and when the dead body was taken for cremation, they fly away quietly. hope it helps.. :)

Sparrows were very closely attached to author's grandmother. She use to give bread crumbs to sparrows when she is alive.

3. The lines, “I am the Poem of Earth”, said by the voice of the rain, reflects a connection between rain and poetry. This connection becomes more conspicuous in the final two lines, “(For song, issuing from its birth-place, after fulfillment, wandering  Reck’d or unreck’d, duly with love returns)”. In these lines, the poet draws similarities between rain and music observing that the life-cycle of rain and song are alike. The song issues from the heart of the poet and travels to reach others. It wanders and, whether heard and enjoyed or not, eventually returns to its creator with all due love. Similarly, rain originates from the earth, and after fulfilling its role of spreading beauty and purity, returns to its origin. Both are perpetual in nature. Moreover, the sound of the soft-falling rain is in itself a kind of music.

It depicts the value of English and the knowledge of English among commoners . It shows that the common villagers didn't even know the meaning of ' change' in respect to money.

The story The Portrait of the Lady by Khushwant Singh revolves around the story of the author and his relationship with his grandmother. The author's mother was a deeply religious woman who was very kind hearted. She epitomised purity and peace of mind which is very well written as an expanse of pure white serenity. Though she wasn't beautiful physically, she possessed deep spiritual beauty. She took great delight in feeding birds and animals.
The story begins with the narrator describing how old his grandmother was. The thought of the authors old grandmother being young and pretty, in early years of her life, raised a conflict in the mind of the author. Her hair was white as snow and she had a little stoop in her back.
When Singh was a child and his parents were away he was brought up by his grandmother who used to wake him up and get him ready for school. While performing this daily chore, she used to sing prayers which she wanted him to learn by heart but in vain. She would walk with him to and from his school. On their way back, they would throw chappatis to the village dogs.
When his parents settled in the city Singh went to stay in the city with her. This was a turning point in the relationship he shared with her. He disliked many things taught in the school. She could no longer help him with his lessons. A small gap had developed between them which wasn't very prominent. She didn't accompany him to school any long.

THE PULSE India’s Universal Basic Income Debate A closer look at a controversial issue. By Ibu Sanjeeb Garg February 01, 2017  Credit: Flickr/ Nicolas MirguetADVERTISEMENT India has always firmly held its ground as a welfare state. Since independence the country has undertaken projects aimed at improving the health, nutrition, and education levels of its citizens. Such projects have included a heavy dose of direct government intervention, in the form of Direct Benefit Transfer subsidies and others. A paradigm shift in Indian welfare came in 2006 when the government launched the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, later called MNREGA. In this scheme people from the rural areas were offered a guaranteed 100 days of wage employment for Indians in rural areas. While the jury is still out on how MNREGA has changed the rural landscape, it cannot be denied that some areas have indeed prospered with the implementation of the scheme. It is against this backdrop of history that the question of Universal Basic Income in India must be addressed. Universal Basic Income or UBI essentially means that each citizen would be given a certain amount of money as income on a yearly basis. Such ideas are being discussed because new disruptions in the global economy, like migration and automation, threaten to take away traditional wages from a large number of citizens. The idea of implementing UBI in India has caught the imagination of policy analysts and general observers alike since the announcement by the chief economic advisor that there is a plan to devote a chapter to UBI in the forthcoming economic survey. While some commentators have opined that it would indeed be a welcome step, others have reasoned that the same would result in a further fiscal burden on the already weakened Indian economy.

Photograph by Shirley Toulson is a tender yet a jolting piece that revolves around the universal theme of loss and separation – an inevitable reality that is a common lot of mankind. Through the stock symbol of a photograph, evoked in many literary pieces to denote nostalgia and remembrance, the poet articulates the void she feels upon having made uncomfortable peace with her mother’s death. The poem is tender because of the heart-touching manner in which it has expressed nostalgia born of loss to the passage of time and the final rest; the jolting attribute comes from the harsh message it sends across about how humans can never be entirely adept at accepting irreversible separation from a loved one.

1) The rains origin is actually the bottomless sea. The water evaporates and goes up in the sky in the form of water vapour and then comes down as rain and fills up the sea. So, it gives birth to its own origin.
