Question

class 8 english poem the duck and the kangaroo summary in english​

Answer 1

Two Friends

A Duck and a Kangaroo were friends. One day the Duck made a request to the Kangaroo. It said that its life in the pond was a bore. So the Duck requested the Kangaroo to take him on his back around the world. He promised to sit quite still and say nothing but ‘Quack’.

The Kangaroo’s Objection

The Kangaroo gave a thought to the Duck’s request. He told the Duck of only one difficulty. The Duck’s feet were unpleasantly wet and cold. These wet feet could give the Kangaroo rheumatism.

The Duck’s Solution

The Duck said that he had already thought over that problem. He had bought four pairs of worsted socks. These socks fitted his web- feet neatly. To keep out the cold, the Duck had also bought a cloak. Besides, he would also smoke a cigar everyday.
