Rikhu Chaudhry 5 years, 5 months ago

Hlo Mishti, what is your main purpose of reading grammar book - writing skills or for general awareness... If it for good writing skills then i recommend u for the past year question papers and sample papers... practice from those questions and let it be checked by your eng teacher And If it is for general awareness then i recommend u for Wren and Martin English book which has three levels- Primary, Middle school and high school.?

The story ‘The Last Lesson’ is set in the days of the Franco-Prussian war. France was defeated by Prussia and districts of Alsace and Lorraine had passed into Prussian hands. The orders came from Berlin to teach only German in the schools of Alsace and Lorraine. The story tells the eect of this transition on the people through the eyes of a young boy, Franz. The story describes what is just another ordinary day for Franz who started very late for school that morning. In fact, he was reluctant to go to school as he had not prepared his French lesson on participles and his teacher, M. Hamel, was going to conduct an oral test on the topic in the class. Initially, he thought of spending the bright warm day outdoors enjoying the chirping of birds and drilling of Prussian soldiers at the back of the sawmill. But nally, he decided to go to school. On the way, Franz passed the town hall, where he saw a large crowd reading the bulletin board which had been a source of all bad news. Franz didn’t stop there and rushed to the school. When Franz arrived at the school, he found a strange quietness there. He found that his classmates were already seated in their places and the teacher had already started teaching. The back benches were occupied by the village elders who were grim and solemn. To his surprise, M. Hamel was in the formal dress that hewed to wear only on the inspection or prize distribution days. Franz found M. Hamel to be kinder than usual. He didn’tscold Franz for being late and allowed him to take his seat. Franz was shocked to get the news that it 105 w scold last lesson in French and the new German teacher would take charge on the following day. He was full of regret for not learning his mother tongue and felt a sudden love for French. He even started liking M. Hamel and forgot all about his ruler and crankiness. When M. Hamel asked Franz to answer a question ac participle, he was not able to answer. Even then, M. Hamel didn’t scold him and remarked that the only trouble with people of Alsace was of putting o learning till the next day. He blamed parents for sending their children to earn money rather than to school. He also blamed himself for sending students to water his plants or to give them a holiday when he wanted to go shing. Hamel then talked of the French language, calling it the most beautiful language in the world. He told the class la to keep their language close to their hearts to feel free and happy. As long as an enslaved people held fast to their language, it was as if they had the key to their prison. Their language could liberate them forever. As the church clock struck twelve, M. Hamel with a choked throat wrote on the blackboard Vive La France!, ie. Long Live France and dismissed the class. The story, written in historical background, is a beautiful depiction of the emotional bond of people with their mother tongue. It depicts the pathos of the situation that in order to conquer the minds of the people, it is not enough to win a country physically by force. In order to enslave a people completely, a conqueror needs to enslave their thoughts and make them devoid of their own mother tongue.

Gandhiji wanted to mould ' a new free Indian '. He wanted Indians to stand on their own feet. Some of his followers want in C.F. Andrews to stay in Champaran and help them. Gandhi opposed it. He did not want Indians to take the help of an Englishman in their struggle for freedom. So he taught a lesson in self-reliance.

The order has comes from Berlin that now french will not tough and will teach German in Alsace school and it's your last lesson of French and all the school Quit like as a Sunday morning and last bench always empty but that day elders was sitting on last bench And m .hamel outfits (. Spl Green court and a little cap on head) And m. Hamel said to all students that's your last French class and end of the class m. Hamel wrote on the board viva la Frence which means Long live Frence

Gaurav Seth 5 years, 5 months ago

The two points which show to that the people of Alsace loved their language  are

  1. M.Hamel Declared that French was the most beautiful language of the world. It was clearest and most logical of all languages. He asked the people to guard it among themselves and never forget it. As long as people ' hold fast of their language' they have the key to their freedom.
  2. The order from Berlin has come, that all the schools of Alsace will be teaching German instead of French and this was their last French Class. All the village elders attended the last french class.Everyone was quiet and sad. They didn't enjoyed learning french but the order from Berlin changed everything for them. It aroused patriotic feeling in them. At the end of this class they all said " Vive La France !" which means long live France

The experience of the peddler at the manor of the Willmanssons made the peddler change his ways. Earlier he had never known a true sympathiser or well-wisher. He had no friend to steer him on the right path. Though the crofter was hospitable to him and even the ironmaster had almost offered him help, they failed to leave any impact on him. It was Edla who, through her genuine care and understanding, was finally able to change the peddler for the better.

Yogita Ingle 5 years, 5 months ago

The peddler was a man who went around selling small rattraps of wire. He was leading a sad and monotonus life of a vagabond. He knocked at the door of the cottage of the crofter who turned out to be an old man without wife and children. He showed his kindness and hospitality towards him which the peddler had not excepted. But the peddler stole his thirty kronors. Thus he betrayed the confidence reposed in him by the crofter. 

The ironmaster, thinking him as an old acquaintance Captian Von Stahle , showed kindness to him and invited him to spend the Christmas evening with him. But the peddler thought that if he would say that he is the one whom the ironmaster is thinking, then he would get some more kronors.That's why he did not reveal his true identity.

Edla Willmanson, requested the peddler to go to her home in a very compassionate and friendly manner.He then accepted to go to their home. 
But while he was riding the manor house, he felt very guilty of whatever he did. So he decided to correct his mistake. He did that by leaving a gift for Edla in which there were the thirty kronors which he had theft from the crofter's house. He had written in the note to return the money of crofter back.

Pablo Neruda is against 'total inactivity' because that would amount to death and he has no association with death. Life is a continuous and on-going process and so is all about being on the move.

Yogita Ingle 5 years, 5 months ago

Poet Neruda wishes to have total inactivity. Unnecessary rush and hurry have troubled and tensed all of us. The noise of machines creates disturbance when everything is at rest, it will be an exotic moment. It will give us unusual feeling and all will enjoy sudden strangeness. All will feel one with all others and leave aside all the selfish ends.

Saheb E alam

Yogita Ingle 5 years, 5 months ago

The irony in Saheb's name is this: his full name is Saheb-E-Alam, which means the Lord of the Universe. Quite contrary to the meaning of his name he does the menial job of rummaging through garbage mounds to collect recyclable plastic or the like. This contrast between the meaning of his name and the poverty-stricken life is the irony of his name.

There are hundreds of children like him living in Seemapuri on the outskirts of Delhi; these poor children in India are forced to live an impoverished life. They have inherited from their poor parents slums and poverty. In order to make ends meet, they are forced to do the work of rag-picking. They don’t have enough facilities to go to school and come out of the vicious circle of poverty. They roam here and there collecting garbage from garbage yards, wearing tattered clothes and walking bare feet on the hard roads of life.

After becoming late in his office, Charley went to Grand Central to reach home early. There he entered in a tunnel that ended in a corridor. The corridor turned left and slanted downward. Charley went on walking and reached a flight of stairs that took him to another level of the station. It was the Third Level even quite different from other two levels.
