8. Did Sue also share the superstition with Johnsy about
the falling of old ivy leaves? Justify your answer.
Answers
Answer:
Johnsy had an attack of pneumonia. She had lost all interest in life. An ivy creeper was growing against the wall of a neighbouring house. It was autumn and the leaves of the creeper were falling. Johnsy linked the falling of leaves to her life. She thought that with the falling of each leaf, she was nearing her death. Sue told her that there could be no relationship between falling leaves and her life.
But, at the same time, Sue did not argue with Johnsy and did not contradict her belief. It shows the maturity and understanding of human nature. It was her maturity and willingness to help her friend in her bad time. She convinced Behrman to help her. She left no stone unturned in saving Johnsy’s life. A good friend should always be like Sue who is mature, sincere and understanding.
