Answer:
Answer. Answer: Love, human sympathy and education can transform even a thief. This is an extract of The Thief Story written by Ruskin Bond
Explanation:
Answer:
A.) It is true to say that love, human sympathy and education can transform even thief. Anil was a gentleman and had given shelter to Hari Singh. He had always been very friendly with Hari Singh and had also taught him to cook and to study as well . however Hari Singh was a thief, when he got the opportunity to Rob Anil he took the money out from under his bed and went straight to the the station but he did not took the train. the love and sympathy shown by Anil made Hari Singh think bad of what he had done. he thought to himself that if anyone else would have been robbed then they would grieve over there loss but Anil would feel disappointed for what Hari Singh had done. Hari Singh sat on the bench and also thought that education from Anil will make him a gentle person and he would earn more then what he gets from robbery. Hari Singh had done many robberies before but he had never felt like this before. Anil by his love sympathy and teaching created an enlightenment in the mind of Hari Singh. Hari Singh then decided to go back to Anil and be with him and study. he left the station and came running back to anils home. he put the the money e back under anils bed and went to sleep. here we can see that the feeling of being educated being loved created a light of enlightenment in Hari Singh. afterwards he decided to study and worked as a gentleman and earn more and especially have a respectable life.
2.)Mrs Pumphrey, the mistress of
Tricki was an overindulgent lady. She pampered and even spoiled her pet dog. Dr Herriot instructed her to keep Tricki on a very strict diet and give him a lot of exercises. She ignored him. It was very difficult for her to deny Tricki sweets, cakes and chocolates. She gave a frantic call to Dr James Herriot only when Tricki's condition worsened. Tricki lost his appetite and started vomiting. Dr Herriot advised that the dog be hospitalised under his observation for a fortnight. It was difficult for Mrs Pumphrey to accept but she accepted it is only way to save Tricki's life.
Dr James Herriot knew that Tricki's only fault was his greed for food. He didn't give him medical treatment. He didn't give Tricki food but a lot of water for a few days. His method worked. Within a few days, Tricki was out of danger. His recovery was rather rapid. He started taking interest in his surroundings. His appetite came back, and he ran along with the other dogs in the garden. Dr Herriot informed Mrs Pumphrey that Tricki was completely cured and she could collect him. The grateful mistress thanked the doctor and called his feat 'a triumph of surgery!
