Question

5 Where the Mind is Without
Rabindranath Tagore
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection; Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit; Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.​

Explanation:

• Since 'anger' cannot be relatable, we may take it as 'excited' only.

. However the sentence can be rewritten as: The class became excited when their teacher gave a series of quizzes without discussion.

Another example: Rathin was going on bananas when his boss fired him without any reason.
