What message does the story 'His First Flight' convey?

It teaches us that we should trust our abilities and take the first step courageously.

How does the poem 'Animals' describe the human condition?

Losing the ball is an opportunity for the boy to understand the nature of loss and how to cope with it. Money or a new ball cannot replace the memories attached to the lost one.

Answer: The poet Walt Whitman suggests that humans have become complicated and false. They are always complaining about their condition, committing sins, and weeping over them.

She was ignorant about dog care but was kind-hearted. She was very grateful to the doctor when Tricki recovered, calling it a "triumph of surgery".

Answer: The Martians planned to invade Earth. Their leader, Think-Tank, tried to decipher the code of the book 'Mother Goose'. He misinterpreted the nursery rhymes. For example, he thought 'Humpty Dumpty' was him and that humans were planning to break him. Scared by these rhymes, he cancelled the invasion and fled to Alpha Centauri.

What is the central idea of the poem 'Fire and Ice'?

Do you think Amanda is a sulking and moody child? Why/Why not?

Answer: No, Amanda is not sulking or moody. She is just a normal child who desires freedom and peace.

Her silence is a reaction to her mother's constant scolding.

Thus, by wearing clothes, he became a visible person. Later, in the theatrical company, he wore bandages, dark glasses, a false nose, and whiskers to become fully visible.

Answer: Bholi refused to marry Bishamber because he was a greedy and mean person. When he saw Bholi's pock-marks, he demanded 5000 rupees as dowry from her father.
