Answers
It was awfully funny to read words that stood still instead of moving the way they were supposed to on a screen. When Tommy and Margie turned back to the page before, it had the same words on it that it had had when they read it the first time.
Swami did not submit the complaint letter to the headmaster in the morning out of fear for the consequences. He apprehended that if he delivers the letter to head sir, Samuel would be surely dismissed by the headmaster and he would be chained by police and would be finally put in jail.
The poet's mother acted as a source of inspiration for the poet by changing his pain into pious strength by bowing and kneeling five times daily i.e praying to the Almighty God five times everyday in order to attain the Almighty grace. She also inspired the port to face difficuties, challenges etc.
The narrator gathered the following impression when he met her:-
1. The lady was very talkative in nature.
2. She had white and large teeth.
3. She was not very young and her age was around forty years.
4. She was more imposing than attractive in her appearance.
We can comfort a man in distress by being sympathetic, helpful and by treating them as our own brother and sister. We must put ourselves in other's shoes so that we can share their pain equally and develop an empathetic and compassionate attitude towards them.
