A Letter to God (ईश्वर को एक पत्र)
1. How did the postmaster and post office employees help Lencho? How did he react to their help?
हिंदी अनुवाद: पोस्टमास्टर और डाकघर के कर्मचारियों ने लेंचो की मदद कैसे की? उसने उनकी मदद पर कैसी प्रतिक्रिया दी?
Ans. The postmaster, moved by Lencho's faith in God, decided to help him by responding to his letter with money. He asked for donations from his employees and friends and was able to collect seventy pesos. He then put the money in an envelope addressed to Lencho and signed it 'God'. When Lencho received and counted the money, he became angry because it was less than the hundred pesos he had requested. He immediately wrote a second letter to God, demanding the remaining thirty pesos, believing that the post office employees had stolen the missing amount.
2. How did the hailstones affect Lencho's field? What was Lencho's only hope?
हिंदी अनुवाद: ओलों ने लेंचो के खेत को कैसे प्रभावित किया? लेंचो की एकमात्र आशा क्या थी?
Ans. The hailstorm was catastrophic for Lencho's crops. It hailed for an hour, covering the field with ice like a sheet of salt. The hailstones completely destroyed the ripe corn crop. Lencho felt utter sadness, as he feared his family would go hungry for the year. After the destruction, Lencho's only hope was the help from God. He believed God would not let them starve and hence, he wrote a letter asking for a hundred pesos to sow his field again.
Nelson Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom (नेल्सन मंडेला: स्वतंत्रता की लंबी राह)
3. How did Mandela's 'hunger for freedom' change his life?
हिंदी अनुवाद: मंडेला की 'स्वतंत्रता की भूख' ने उनका जीवन कैसे बदल दिया?
Ans. As a student, Mandela only wanted freedom for himself, seeing freedom as temporary and personal. However, he gradually realized that his freedom and the freedom of his people were curtailed. This personal desire transformed into a greater hunger for the freedom of his people. This change transformed him from a fearful young man into a bold one, from a law-abiding attorney into a criminal, and from a family man into a dedicated monk. He joined the African National Congress and fought to liberate his people from the chains of oppression.

Two Stories about Flying (उड़ने के बारे में दो कहानियाँ)
4. Describe the narrator's experience as he flew the aeroplane into the storm.
हिंदी अनुवाद: तूफ़ान में हवाई जहाज़ उड़ाते समय कथावाचक के अनुभव का वर्णन कीजिए।
Ans. When the narrator flew his aeroplane into the storm, his experience was terrifying. The black storm clouds looked like black mountains. His aeroplane began to jump and twist. It became impossible to see anything outside. His compass stopped working first, followed by all his other devices, including the radio. He realized all his contact with Paris Control was dead. He felt completely lost and alone in the giant storm, believing he was taking a great risk.
Glimpses of India (भारत की झलकियाँ)
5. Give a pen portrait of Goan village baker.
हिंदी अनुवाद: गोवा के गाँव के बेकर का शब्द चित्र प्रस्तुत कीजिए।
Ans. The baker, or 'pader,' had a crucial place in Goan village life.
- Appearance: The baker and his family were often prosperous. Their plump physique was an open testimony to their wealth.
- Dress: In Portuguese days, they wore a peculiar dress called the 'Kabai'—a single-piece, long frock reaching down to the knees. Later, they started wearing a shirt and trousers that were shorter than full-length pants.
- Accounting: The monthly accounts were recorded on some wall in pencil.
6. What is the story about the Kodavu people's descent?
हिंदी अनुवाद: कोडावु लोगों के वंश के बारे में क्या कहानी है?
Ans. The Kodavu people of Coorg are fiercely independent and are believed to be the descendants of either Greeks or Arabs. The Greek theory suggests that a part of Alexander's army moved south along the coast and settled there. They could not return to their country, and their martial traditions and marriage rites suggest this Greek origin. The Arabic descent theory is supported by the long, black, embroidered 'Kuppia' they wear, which resembles the 'Kuffia' worn by the Arabs and Kurds.
पोएट्री (Poetry) के दीर्घ उत्तरीय प्रश्न (75 Words)
Dust of Snow (बर्फ की धूल)
7. What do the 'crow' and the 'hemlock' represent joy or sorrow? What does the dust of snow that the crow shakes off a hemlock tree stand for?
हिंदी अनुवाद: 'कौआ' और 'हेमलॉक' खुशी या दुख में से किसका प्रतिनिधित्व करते हैं? कौआ हेमलॉक के पेड़ से जो बर्फ की धूल झाड़ता है, वह किसका प्रतीक है?
Ans. Traditionally, the crow (often associated with ill omen) and the hemlock tree (a poisonous tree) symbolize sorrow, grief, and bad luck. The dust of snow that the crow shakes off the hemlock tree, however, stands for the unexpected moment of happiness and hope. It signifies nature's power to lighten a burden and change the poet’s sad mood into a celebratory one, thereby saving the rest of his day from being wasted.
Fire and Ice (अग्नि और बर्फ)
8. What do 'desire' and 'hate' stand for in the poem 'Fire and Ice'? What does Robert Frost say about how the world will end?
हिंदी अनुवाद: 'अग्नि और बर्फ' कविता में 'इच्छा' और 'घृणा' किस बात का प्रतिनिधित्व करते हैं? रॉबर्ट फ्रॉस्ट दुनिया के अंत के बारे में क्या कहते हैं?
Ans. In the poem, the poet discusses two ways the world might end: fire and ice.
- Fire stands for human emotions like desire, greed, lust, and cruelty.
- Ice stands for hatred, coldness, indifference, and rigidity.
Robert Frost believes that the world can end either way. He holds with those who favour fire (desire) as the most probable cause of destruction due to human passion. However, he thinks that if the world had to perish twice, ice (hatred) would also be equally great and sufficient for total destruction.
A Tiger in the Zoo (चिड़ियाघर में एक बाघ)
9. Write the central idea of the poem 'A Tiger in the Zoo'.
हिंदी अनुवाद: 'चिड़ियाघर में एक बाघ' कविता का केंद्रीय विचार लिखिए।
Ans. The central idea of the poem is the importance of freedom and the contrast between confinement and nature. The poet portrays the state of mind of a captive tiger and compares its life in a small, concrete cage in the zoo with its potential life in the wild. The poem emphasizes that every living being, including the tiger, has a natural instinct for freedom. The tiger's silent rage shows the misery of being denied its natural habitatent life.
