2. Read the passage and answer the following questions:- (7)

Mahatma Gandhi

Once ,as a child , Gandhi ji stole a bit of gold from his father's

armlet to pay for his the latter's debt of twenty five rupees. It was

an innocent thing for a little boy to do to save his brother from

disgrace. But by doing so he had lost all peace of mind and he could

not decide what amends he should make for the wrong that he had

done.

At last he decided to tell his father the whole truth. He wrote a

letter to him, telling him all about the incident and promising that

he would never steal again. He asked his father to punish him as

severely as he wished and begged him not to feel pained about it in

any way.

As the father read that letter, tears began to roll down his cheeks .

This left Gandhi so devastated with shame and remorse that he tooka silent vow never to an unrighteous deed again. He strove to be

good and truthful ever after.
