A Bicycle in Good Repair:
This is a chapter of class 7 this is the 9th chapter. In this chapter we learn many morals values. According to the question the right answer is that "Never do anything with knowing half about soemething".
Summary:
We must not do anything without knowing half thing about something, we must only try something after knowing everything about it.
Similarly in this chapter we know there are two important characters who is the poet and his friend.
When the poet friend came to the poets house, the friend said he is a mechanic and he himself tried and started removing the parts of the cycle separately, he have removed completed before the poet came.
After the poet came his was very sad and angry on his friend. he said do you know to refix everything back and make a perfect cycle. The friend told he don't know to repair but let me try.
The poet was very sad and unhappy, also as a accompany the poet came to help his friend, after they fixed few of the parts but his friend have lost the important small parts of the cycle.
While his friend sit to refix the gear-box he also lots some important parts to fix the cycles wheel etc.. And also his friend standing on the cycle, kicking the cycle said the poet "cycle had received most punishment it would be difficult to say". Also the poet sent his friend back to his house. This is a good lesson for poet and his friend.
Yes, it is true that half knowledge is dangerous thing.
Explanation:
Yes, it is true that half knowledge is dangerous thing.
We should not try to do anything if we do not have complete knowledge and information about the thing.
similarly the poet's friend came to his house after examining the bicycle he separated the parts of the bicycle just by saying that he is a mechanic and fix the broken or things that are torn apart.
When poet returned to home ho got angry at his friend and asked him to fix the bicycle. But he refused to do it because he had not full knowledge about fixing the vehicles.
So both sat down and inferred that one should not do without having the complete knowledge about the subject.
