Answer:
Industrial Revolution led to factory system which in turn led to the emergence of capitalist economic system. The over-production forced the industrialised European countries to search for markets in Asia, Africa and Latin American countries.

This search for markets led to competition among them. Using political power and military forces, the European countries economically exploited die nations of Africa, Asia and Latin America. Later, they became the colonies of European countries. This process is called colonization.

Formation of trade unions, their constant agitations and the resultant increase in the wages of workers diminished the profit of the capitalists. So the colonial masters started to invest capital in the colonies. The distinctive phase of flow of finance capital to colonies is known as imperialism.

The factors that led to aggressive nationalism

• Competition among European countries in the search for markets.
• European nations used language,religion and culture to induce a feeling of love towards one’s mother country among the people.

10 Th Std Geography Question 8.
Examine the relevance of non-alignment.
Answer:
Non-alignment is a movement of the unity of the newly independent countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America that did not join the capitalist bloc or the socialist bloc and remained independent. Non-alignment is a policy of neither neutrality or non-intervention. It demands the active intervention in the international events.

Non-alignment Movement (NAM) is the second largest international organisation after UNO, working for world peace. NAM permits member states to adopt an independent stand in international relations and to follow a foreign policy based on peace and co-operation.

It denounces all kinds of violence based on colour and race. It opposed the arms race and military alliances of power blocs. NAM believes that a world devoid of wars and conflicts alone can progress economically and socially.

The problems faced by the present day world are religious intolerance, racist conflicts, global terrorism, ecological problems and the evils of globalisation suffered by developing countries of the world. NAM can play an effective role in solving these problems and thus to build a new world order.

Question 11.
How did Industrial Revolution cause colonization? Prepare a flowchart.
Answer:

Question 12.
How does imperialism differ from colonization?
Answer:
The European countries had established trade relationships with Asian, African and Latin American countries. They searched for markets and raw materials in these countries. Using political power and military forces, the European countries economically exploited the nations. Later they became the colonies of European countries. This process is called colonization.

The distinctive phase of flow of finance capital to colonies is known as imperialism. Colonialists imposed their dominance using legal system, administrative measures, military force, etc.

Question 13.
How did the Industrial Revolution cause conflict among nations?
Answer:
Following the Industrial Revolution, many nations produced more than they needed and more than they could accommodate in their domestic markets. The over-production forced them to search for markets. The search for markets by the industrialised countries of Europe led to competition among them.

The Europeans had established trade relationship with Asian, African and Latin American countries. They also competed for colonies. Competition led to conflicts among colonial powers. Thus competition and conflict among imperialist nations for colonies and markets led to the outbreak of wars.

Question 14.
How did the competition among the imperialist nations lead the world to a war?
Answer:
Colonization became complete during the period of imperialism. The European nations vied with each other in establishing colonies. They had considered the colonies as the source of raw materials and the market for their industrial products.

The competition among European nations led to conflicts among them and caused mutual mistrust and enmity. This further drove them to the signing of military alliances. These conflicts among the imperial powers ultimately led the entire world to a war. Moroccan crisis and Balkan crisis are examples for imperialist crises.

Question 19.
How did Fascism in Italy and Nazism in Germany defy world peace? Conduct a seminar on this topic.
Answer:

Seminar

Topic: Fascism and Nazism, a threat to World Peace .

Introduction:
Fascism was a political ideology which exerted decisive influence on the political and social life of Europe after the First World War. The economic disaster and political instability caused by die First World War compelled the people to distrust republican governments. It was in this context that Fascism was presented as an alternate ideology rooted in aggressive nationalism and antidemocratic principles. Fascism originated in Italy. Nazism which originated in Germany was the German version of fascism.

Fascism and Mussolini:
The growing fascist movement in Italy was led by Benito Mussolini. In 1921 he founded the Fascist Party.
The reasons for the growth of Fascism in Italy were the following.

• Italy got nothing, though she was with the victors in the First World War. Her imperialistic ambitions were not fulfilled.
• Post-war destruction of industries, unemployment, increase in tax, inflation, etc. kept the people away from the government.
• Industrialists, in fear of Italy moving towards socialism, were prompted to support Fascism.

The Fascist party grew up in Italy by resorting to terror and violence. They branded communists, socialists and the leaders of peasants and workers as enemies of the state. To create terror among people/Mussolini deputed armed gangs known as ‘Fasces’.

The government did not take any steps to control the Fascists. In the elections held in Italy in 1921, the Fascists did not get the majority. In 1922, Mussolini led a March to Rome, threatening to capture power. Victor Emmanuel D, the king of Italy invited Mussolini to form a government. Thus the Fascists came to power in Italy.

Once Mussolini came to power, he turned Italy into a despotic state. He resorted to despotic measures in the political and economic fields of Italy. Violence and ferocity were the strategies of Fascists. The steps taken by Mussolini to consolidate power were:

• Socialists and leaders of peasants and workers were proclaimed as enemies and executed them.
• Opponents of Fascism were executed.
• Using the military force ‘Black Shirts’, Mussolini suppressed the opponents.
• Imposed censorship on the press and cinema.
• Created a feeling that war was inevitable for progress.
• Communist Party and Labour Unions were prohibited.
• Thousands were imprisoned.
• Mussolini’s aggressive foreign policy led to conquer nations like Ethiopia and Albania. Italy’s run for dictatorial power led to the outbreak of the Second World War.

Nazism and Hitler:
Nazism was the German version of Fascism. The monstrous form of Fascist dictatorship in Germany was known as Nazism. Adolf Hitler was the leader of Nazism. The reasons that led to the growth of Nazism in Germany were:

The humiliation by the Treaty of Versailles. Germany felt humiliated when the Treaty of Versailles was imposed on them by the victorious powers after the First World War. They were agitated and yearned for a leader who could avenge this unfair treatment. The Germans sought someone who could restore the lost grandeur of Germany. It was under these circumstances that Nazi Party under Adolf Hitler gained support.

Economic destruction and inflation.

Failure of German government and the resultant political uncertainty.
Hitler joined the National German Workers Party which in short form was known as ‘Nazi’ Party in 1919. In 1923, Hitler was arrested and imprisoned for trying to usurp power. While in prison, Hitler wrote the book ‘Mein Kampf’ (My Struggle) which became the Bible of Nazism. Later in the elections, the Nazi Party came out as the single largest party and Hitler was appointed as the Chancellor.

Nazism opposed civic rights and freedom. It declared communism as its enemy and proclaimed the destruction of communism its avowed aim. Racism was its essence. Nazis claimed that the Aryans were the noblest of races and that the Germans were the best of Aryans. Hitler held the view that Aryans should rule Germany and Germany should rule the world. Nazis accused the Jews for the defeat of Germany in the First World War.

Hitler took many steps to consolidate his power in Germany.

• Socialists, communists, Jews and democrats were executed.
• Jews were massacred in masses in specially built concentration camps. This was known as the Holocaust. .
• A military force ‘Brown Shirts’ and a secret police troop ‘Gestapo’ were in charge of assaulting and massacring Jews.
• Hitler projected the purity of the Aryan race and argued that Aryans should rule the world.
• All other political parties, except the Nazi party were banned.
• Trade unions were banned.
• Military service was made compulsory.
• He incited a spirit of revenge among the Germans against the Treaty of Versailles.
• He used newspapers, radio, cinema and education systems widely to propagate Nazi ideologies.
• His aggressive foreign policy made him attack Austria, Czechoslovakia and Poland.
• Formed Rome-Berlin-Tokyo military alliance against other countries. This led to the Second World War.

Fascist and Nazi ideologies were similar.

• Opposition to democracy ad socialism
• Glorifying the nation
• Justifying war
• Deifying the past
• Military dictatorship
• Adoring the purity of race
• Diffusion of aggressive nationalism
• Destruction of political rivals
• Indoctrination of ideologies through arts, literature and education.
• Hero worship
• Craze for war
  Thus we can infer that the ideologies of Fascism and Nazism were a threat to world peace.

Question 20.
The reasons behind the outbreak of the First World War and the Second World War had x several similarities. Analyse the statement.
Answer:
The reasons for the outbreak of the First and Second World Wars had many similarities. They are discussed below.

Aggressive – nationalism:
Various movements rooted in aggressive nationalism emerged in Europe before the First World War. Russia started the Pan Slav Movement to unite the Slavic people of Serbia, Bulgaria and Greece in Eastern Europe under her leadership. Germany started the Pan German Movement to establish her dominance in Central Europe and Balkan provinces and to unite the Teutonic people.

France started the Revenge Movement against Germany to regain her territories of Alsace and Lorraine captured by Germany in the Franco-Prussian war of 1871. The aggressive nationalist movements that led to the Second World War were Fascism and Nazism.

Fascism began in Italy under Mussolini and Nazism began in Germany under Hitler. Violence and ferocity were the strategies of Fascists and Nazis. Fascists aimed at the restoration of ancient Roman empire. Nazis upheld the purity of Aryan race.

Formation of military alliances:
Military alliances led to both the wars. Mutual suspicion and enmity among nations led to the formation of military alliances. The two military alliances formed before the First World War were Triple Alliance and Triple Entente. Italy, Germany and Austria-Hungary formed the Triple Alliance. Triple Entente by Britain, France and Russia was formed to oppose this.

The military alliances that led to the Second World War were Axis Powers and Allied Powers. To conquer colonies and attack weaker nations, Italy, Germany and Japan formed the Axis Powers. Countering this alliance, Britain, France and China formed the Allied Powers.

Imperialist conflicts:
Imperialist rivalries led to many crises before both the wars. The imperialist rivalries that led to the First World War were Moroccan Crisis, Balkan Crisis and the Bosnian Crisis.

The competition among imperialist countries became acute after the First World War. Most of the colonies of Asia and Africa were controlled by Britain, France, Holland, etc. Countries like Italy, Germany and Japan had neither colonies nor markets. So they tried to capture the colonies of other countries and to invade weak nations. The conquest of Manchuria by Japan, Ethiopia by Italy and Rhineland and Austria by Germany were part of this project.

Immediate cause:
The immediate cause for the First World War was the assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdinand, the heir to the throne of Austria by a Serbian youth. Germany’s attack on Poland was the immediate cause for the Second World War.

Question 21.
Given below are some of the outcomes of the First World War. Discuss how they resulted in the Second World War
i) The Treaty of Versailles
ii) Formation of the League of Nations
iii) The emergence of Fascism and Nazism
Answer:
The First World War termed as ‘the war to end all wars’ could bring neither peace nor democracy in the world as it was promised. In the post war period, enmity and friction increased among the nations. This dragged the world into a terrible . Second World War.

i) The Treaty of Versailles:
The victorious Allied Powers revengefully imposed the Treaty of Versailles after the First World War on Germany. German colonies were divided among victorious powers. Germany was forced to pay a huge war indemnity. All war guilt was imposed on her and she was disarmed. These unilateral and unjust provisions of the treaty were highly resented by the Germans. Hitler incited a spirit of revenge among the Germans against the tertns of the Treaty of Versailles.

ii) Formation of the League of Nations:
The League of Nations was the international organization formed after the First World War. The League was formed on February 10, 1920. It’s aims were to ensure world peace and security, to promote international co-operation, to prevent wars, etc. But the League failed to prevent the attacks made by big powers. It could not implement disarmament. It failed to prevent Italy’s attack on Ethiopia and Japan’s attack on Manchuria. Thus the failure of the League of Nations led to the Second World War.

iii) The emergence of Fascism and Nazism:
The First World War devastated both the Allies. Many European governments lost their power. People were in misery. Unemployment, poverty and inflation gnawed their entire system. Fascism in Italy and Nazism in Germany rose to power, capitalizing on the political and economic chaos prevailing then.
Economic destruction, rivalry against the victors, aimlessness etc.

facilitated the Fascists and Nazis to grab power. The strategies adopted by them were violence and ferocity They opposed democracy and socialism, justified war, believed in military dictatorship, destroyed political rivals and followed a policy of aggressive nationalism. All these led to the Second World War.

Question 22.
Elucidate how far the activities of the UNO have succeeded in maintaining peace around the world.
Answer:
The United Nations Organisation came into existence on October 24, 1945. Some of its objectives are to save the succeeding generations from the scourge of war, to protect international treaties and laws and to foster social and economic development of countries.

For the purpose of encouraging friendship between states and for maintaining international peace and security, UNO intervenes in disputes between nations of the world. Interventions by UNO are by way of Peace Missions, Diplomatic Methods and Peace Keeping Force. The following are some of the problems settled by UNO.

• Solved the Israel-Palestine issue amicably.
• Ended Iran-Iraq war
• Solved Iraq-Kuwait issue
• Ended the civil war in Congo
• In the Gulf war between Iraq and Kuwait in 1991, freed Kuwait from Iraq.
• Ended the fights between different groups in Cambodia and Mozambique.
• Liberated South Africa from apartheid and made it an independent nation.
• In 2006, the UN created the Counter Terrorism Implementation Task Force for anti-terrorist activities.
• Conducted Cultural Fest at Oslo against global warming.

Thus the UNO is a world public forum that works for the security of human kind by stressing on social and economic progress and sustainable development.

Answer:

Question 24.
Was the cold war a threat to world peace? Evaluate.
Or
It was the conflicting ideologies that led to cold war. Evaluate.
Answer:
USA and the Soviet Union became super powers after the Second World War. The USA floated an alliance of capitalist countries while the USSR led socialist nations. These two blocs – capitalist bloc and socialist bloc continued their political and diplomatic wars. This enmity based on ideological conflict and diplomatic confrontations was called the cold war. Cold war was neither a state of war nor of peace. It was a diplomatic war. Ideological-hatred and political distrust were the bases of cold war.

Cold war was a threat to world peace. Cold war became intense when two blocs formed new military alliances and regional coalitions. The military pacts formed by USA against Soviet Union were North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), South East Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO) and Central Treaty Organization (CENTO). To counter this, Soviet Union formed the Warsaw Pact. Often the disputes between the blocs almost led the world to the brink of war.

10 Std Geography Question 25.
How did decolonization and cold war pave the way for the formation of non-aligned movement?
Answer:
As a result of decolonization, many countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America became independent. The super powers namely USA and USSR supported the freedom of the colonies. These countries did not join the capitalist bloc of USA or socialist bloc of USSR. They realized that the Cold war was yet another face of imperialism and that it would threaten world peace. The unity . among these countries led to the origin of Non-alignment. Decolonization and cold war paved the way for it.

Question 26.

Answer:

Seminar

Topic: The Impacts of Second World War on World History

Introduction
The world faced a disastrous war during the period from 1939 to 1945. This war known as the Second World War which even threatened the very existence of mankind. The war led to the end of European dominance in world affairs. America and Soviet Union emerged as global powers. Over 10 million people died in the war.

i) Liberation of Asian and African Countries:
Anti-imperial struggles intensified in Asia and Africa when the war ended. The imperialist nations of Europe could not suppress these movements. The USA and the USSR which emerged as super powers after the war supported the freedom movements in the various colonies.

Gradually, colonies started to secure freedom from the imperialist control. India became independent in 1947. Burma (Myanmar) and Ceylon (Sri Lanka) became independent from England in 1948. Ghana became independent in 1957 under Kwame Nkrumah. In 1980 Southern Rhodesia became independent as Zimbabwe.

With the liberation of Namibia in 1990, European colonial rule came to an end in Africa. Countries like Spain, Portugal, Italy, Belgium and Holland were compelled to give independence to their colonies as a result of intensive struggles.

iii) Cold War:
The world was divided into two blocs on the basis of ideological differences after the war. They were the capitalist bloc under USA and the socialist bloc under USSR. The enmity based on ideological conflict and diplomatic confrontations was known as cold war.

Cold war was neither a state of war nor of peace. It was a diplomatic war. Cold war led to the formation of military alliances and arms race. Often the world was threatened by another war.

ii) Non-Aligned Movement:
The newly independent countries of Asia and Africa realized that cold war was yet another face of imperialism and that it would threaten world peace. Non-alignment was the unity forged by the newly independent countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America, without joining any of the power blocs.

These nations understood that the race of super powers for weapons and a stronger military force would pose harm to them. The idea ofNon-Aligned Movement was mooted at a meeting held in Bandung in Indonesia in 1955.

Question 27.
Examine how the imperialist interests caused the unrest in West Asia.
Answer:
Until the First World War, the territory including Palestine was part of the Turkish Empire. As Turkey was defeated in the war, Britain took over the region. Since the Jews helped Britain in the war, the then British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour declared the establishment of a Jewish nation in West Asia as a reward. Israel, a nation for the Jews was formed in 1948. This was followed by Arab-Israel conflicts. By the Oslo Pact of 1993. Israel recognized Palestine. The imperialist conflicts of European nations led to West Asian crisis. West Asia holds half of the world’s total oil reserves. Arab nations used oil export as a strategy to resolve Palestine issue. They executed this strategy by reducing oil production and hiking the price.

Question 28.
How does neo imperialism affect the economy of third world countries?
Answer:

• The multi-national companies competed with one another to control the resources and assets of third world countries.
• They promoted consumerism in third world countries to sell their products.
• Developing nations became markets for multinational companies.
• The products of multinational companies reached even the villages of developing nations.
• Due to the pressure from multinational products and marketing strategies, the economy of many third world countries started to collapse.

Model Question Paper English Question 10.
Read the following lines from Lines Written in Early Spring and write a note of appreciation focusing on the theme, and other poetic devices.  (1 × 5 = 5)

The budding twigs spread out their fan,
To catch the breezy air;
And I must think, do all I can,
That there was pleasure there.

If this belief from heaven be sent,
If such be Nature’s holy plan,
Have I not reason to lament
What man had made of man?
Answer:
The poet says that while sitting reclined on a woodland grove, his mind was filled with several thoughts. While he finds solace in the nature’s beauty, the same beauty also reminds him of sad thoughts. The speaker appreciates the nature for her god like abilities of linking a human soul to herself but he also feels grief while thinking about how cruelly man has separated himself from mother nature. The poet is highly appreciative of nature’s beauty.

He finds delight in the green bowers and has faith that the beautiful flowers enjoy every ounce of the air they breathe and they are thankful for living beside the nature. The speaker observes the birds which sing and hop around him. He is in awe of these creatures. Though the speaker does not understand their language and ways, he does recognize that the birds are creating all these movements out of sheer pleasure and joy.

The breeze blowing is sweet and light, the twigs are spreading out as if to catch the sweet air and all the poet can do is gather pleasure in their existence. The speaker questions that if this is heaven and this is the holy plan of nature then what man has done to himself is really bad. Man has separated himself from such joy and is spending his time hating one another and fighting wars.

The poem has 6 quatrains and the rhyming scheme is abab. There are examples of personification. There ‘is fine visual and auditory imagery. We too feel like the poet reclining in the grove watching the flowers and listening to the music of the birds. Nature is really beautiful.

There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly. So he sent them each to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.

The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in autumn. When they had all gone and returned, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent and twisted. The second son said it was covered with green buds and full of blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.

The third son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfilment. The fourth son disagreed to all and said that the tree was covered with red leaves and the floor was carpeted with golden leaves. The man then explained to his sons that they had each seen one season in the tree’s life.

He told them, that they could not judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, but could only be measured at the end, when all the seasons were up. If you give up when it’s winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the fulfillment of your summer, beauty of your autumn. He said, “Don’t judge a life by one difficult season. Don’t let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.”

Question 17.
The boy in the story ‘Adventures in a Banyan Tree’ had a wonderful experience during his vacation. He narrated the events to his friends. Prepare the likely narrative.
(Hints: Old Banyan tree – favourite domain – friendship with squirrel – hot summer – making platform for reading – fight between mongoose and the snake – supporters of mongoose – friendship of white rat and grey squirrel)
Answer:
There is an old banyan tree near my house. I often sit on a platform I made in the tree and read different books. It was an Aprif afternoon and itwas quite warm.

I soon saw a black cobra coming out of a group of cactus and he was looking for a very cool place in the garden. A mongoose also came out and went towards a cobra. They came face to face. The cobra knew the mongoose was a fine fighter, very clever and aggressive. But the cobra was also an experienced fighter.

His teeth were full of poison. I was now seeing a battle of champions. The cobra darted its tongue in and out. The cobra was 6 feet long. It raised its head and spread its hood. The mongoose also was ready to fight. Its hair on the spine stood up like bristles. This would prevent its body from getting bitten by the cobra.

A myna and a jungle crow were watching the fight. At one stage they dived towards the cobra but they missed it. The myna went back to the tree. But the crow was trying to turn around and it was struck by the cobra. The crow died soon. The mongoose proved too clever for the cobra and finally the cobra was killed by the mongoose which dragged it into the bush nearby.

I saw another interesting sight. I saw a glint from nest of the squirrel which I had seen often. I wanted to investigate. To my great surprise I saw three white baby squirrels in the in the nest. The nest was made with wool taken from my grandmother’s knitting. I told my grandfather about the 3 white baby squirrels in the nest. My grandfather had brought a white rat.

I had often seen the white rat often going with the squirrel. I soon learned that rats and squirrels belonged to the same family and they could breed. In fact the white rat was the father of white baby squirrels.

(Hints: meeting with Thorat travel to Notun Gram – large crowd gathered – tiger’s violent behaviour – tiger walks in the grove – dim light – second shooting at . Calcutta-successful)
Answer:
As arranged with Mr. Thorat of Bharat Circus, a lorry arrived with two well-fed tigers. He brought two so that if one did not do things properly the other could be used. Atripod was placed facing the bamboo grove to mount the camera. The audience was instructed to get behind the camera. Goopy and Bagha were placed close to the bamboo grove so that they could be seen along with the tiger. A five-foot iron rod was fixed to the ground, some 30 feet from the area where the tiger was to walk.

A tiger-skin collar with a thin wire inside was placed in the neck of the tiger. The door of the cage was opened and the tiger jumped out. But instead of walking calmly it started running and jumping about. When it became calm some shots were taken. But the shots were later found to be dark owing to poor light.

The scenes had to be shota second time. A bamboo grove near Calcutta in Boral was found. The lorry arrived with Thorat, the tiger, the steel wire, the special collar arid the iron rod. The whole village came to watch the shooting. The villagers were told to keep at least 70 feet away from the scene of the shot.

Without listening to the instructions, the entire crowd got as close to the camera as they could. Thorat opened the cage. With a roar the tiger charged towards the crowd. The crowd disappeared as if my magic. Soon the tiger calmed down and the shots were taken as required. This time the tiger and the camera behaved well.

Adventures In A Banyan Tree Model Question Paper Question 24.
Based on the reading of the stories Adventures in a Banyan free and ‘Snake and the Mirror’, prepare a Speech on the topic The need of living in harmony with nature’, to be delivered in the school assembly.
Answer:
Respected Principal, teachers and my dear students, Today I am going to talk to you about the need for living in harmony with nature. We know that nature is like our mother who nourishes us by giving us all the things we need. Who gives us the air we breathe? From where does the food we eat come from? Who gives us the water we drink? Who gives us the beautiful dawn and glorious sunset? The answer to all these questions is “Mother Nature”.

When I talk about the need of living in harmony with nature, I am reminded of two stories from a lesson we have to study for four SSLC. The lesson is titled “Adventures in a Banyan Tree” by the famous writer Ruskin Bond. There was an old banyan tree near the house of the narrator of the story. He made a platform on the tree and often spent his time-there reading different books and watching the things going on around him.

In the spring when the banyan tree had small red figs, different kinds of birds would come to eat them. The birds included bulbul, rosy pastors, parrots and crows. During the fruit season, the banyan tree was the noisiest place around, One he saw a fight between a mongoose and a cobra. The fight was watched by a myna and also a crow. The crow was killed by the cobra as it went too close to it. In the end the mongoose kills the cobra and takes it away into the bush around.

Another sight was very thrilling. There was squirrel living in the tree. The narrator’s grandfather had brought a white rat, The rat became a close friend of the squirrel. The squirrel made a nest taking the wool from the narrator’s grandmother’s knitting. Once, the narrator saw a glint from the nest.

When he went to investigate he found there were three white squirrel babies. The white rat was the father of the squirrel babies. He was told by his grandfather that squirrels and rats belonged to the same family and so they could breed! It was new knowledge to him. Nature has many wonders for us. Nurture her and observe her for a rewarding life.

Thanks for listening!

Question 25.
The homeopath in the story The Snake and The Mirror’ is a man who is able to find humour in every aspect of life. Prepare the character sketch of the homoeopath.
Answer:
The homeopath in the story “The Snake and the Mirror” is a man who is able to find humour in every aspect of life. Basheer has used contrasts to bring humour into a frightening story where a full-blooded cobra coils around a doctor. The doctor is a poor man. His earnings were meagre. He had only Rs. 60 with him. He lived in a small rented room. There was no electricity in the room. It was infested with rats. He is concerned with his appearance.

He is conscious that he is a doctor. He realizes that he is capable of committing blunders. But he wants to appear smart and more handsome. For that he will keep a thin moustache and keep smiling. He wants to be a successful and rich man. He wants to marry a lady doctor with money and also good practice. He wants her to be fat so that she does not catch up with him if he makes a mistake and wants to run away. But he ends up marrying a thin and slender woman.

She could run like a sprinter. He was proud of his looks. He is a doctor and he would marry a rich woman. He wanted to appear more handsome. He was feeling happy when suddenly from the beam a cobra fell down and coiled around him. All his thoughts about making himself more handsome and getting married vanished like mist in sunshine.

He was so terrified that he turned into a stone. He thought of God. He felt pain when the snake coiled around his arm. He would be in trouble if the snake bit him. He had no medicine against snake poison. He considers himself as a poor, foolish and stupid doctor. When the snake releases its hold on him we see him fleeing for his life.
