chapter The Pool please answer the questions if you know
Answers
Answer:
1. Anil was wild and a little dangerous, subject to sudden changes of moods and impulses. Somi, on the other hand, was sensitive and gentle in his ways. However, in common with Anil, he had a sense of fun and an instinct for adventure.
2.The author was proud of discovering the pool as all the three friends were adventurous and now, he could enjoy the adventures like fishing, swimming, etc. with them.
3.At first, they tried to catch the fish with a line but the fishes soon learnt the art of taking the bait without being caught on the hook. Then, they procured a bedsheet and stretched it across one end of the stream but the fish wouldn't come near it. Finally, Anil brought a stick of gunpowder and with a flash across the water and a deafening explosion, they got a good supply of fish.
4.Other activities that the friends did near the pool included wrestling and buffalo-rides. They wrestled on a strip of sand and rode on a couple of buffaloes. They sat on the buffaloes and kick and yell and urge them forward but they were unable to move them. The buffaloes would roll over on their backs, taking the boys with them into the soft mud. And then the boys dive into the pool to wash off the mess.
