Hey friends can u give me some important Question and Answers of the chapter"TELIVISION" Written by 'ROALD DALH'
Answers
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
1. The poet’s treatment of his subject is critical, but he still does not sound too opinionated. Why?
Ans. In this stanza, the poet criticises the increasing craze for television among children. However, as the starting line puts it, he has learned about it primarily from other people or some other source. Thus, he does not directly start criticizing television for its bad impact on children, but traces the root of his opinion in how others perceive it. That is why he does not sound opinionated.
2. Why do you think the poet has used the adverb ‘never’ three times in the third line?
Ans. The adverb ‘never’ is generally used to mean ‘not ever’. The purpose of using it is to stress the avoidance of something not agreeable or acceptable. In this stanza, the poet wants to say that children should not be allowed by their parents to spend a lot of time sitting before the television set, because this is a harmful practice in many ways. In order to assert this point forcefully, the poet repeats the adverb ‘never’ three times. The use of capital letters twice further reinforces his point.
3. What has been referred to as ‘the idiotic thing’ in this stanza? Why?
Ans. In this stanza, the phrase ‘the idiotic thing’ has been used for the television set. In some way, the phrase reinforces the poet’s view that television is an extremely useless thing as far as children are concerned. This explains why he feels that children should be kept away from it.
