1. It was raining heavily, the street lights had gone off and I was returning…” complete the story in about 150 words, providing an appropriate title to it.
Answer:
An Accident
It was raining heavily, the street lights had gone off and I was returning home after enjoying a wonderful evening with friends. The memories of the evening were still fresh with me.
We had watched the action thriller—Horror. Then we had spent sometime in the restaurant discussing the actors and the story. Finally, seeing the overcast sky, we decided to part. I started on my motorcycle.
Soon it began to rain. There was no light on the road. Still I kept going. Suddenly, I felt that my bike had hit a cyclist. The cyclist had fallen on the road. I stopped. ‘See, what have you done to me, cried the youngman nursing his wounds.’ ‘Sorry, I could not see in the darkness,’ I replied “Here are five hundred rupees. With that you can pay the doctor and mend your cycle.”
“Don’t show me your money. Go your way but carefully now, lest you should hit someone else.”
Ashamed of myself. I moved on.

“I jumped out of the bed at midnight…”
Answer:
Dream Journey
I jumped out of the bed at Midnight. I had seen a very weird dream. I was sitting in my astrophysics class. Suddenly my bench converted into the pilot’s seat and the room had transformed into the cockpit of a/the space ship. The room was full of twinkling control-switches and the computer said, “We are facing turbulence ! The atmosphere of Saturn is more dangerous than expected.”
The temperature was going up. The dense atmosphere was producing unprecedented friction.
“System paralysis !”, the system exclaimed. I was already sweating. We were not prepared for such a situation.
“Oh! My God! My seat is on fire!”, I yelled ahd pushed on pilot-ejection button with the fear whether I would be able to breathe on Saturn or not?
And thank God! It was not Saturn. It was my home in Satana and my brother’s call had just ejected me out of my bed—my dream space-ship.

Answer:
A Scare
It was a fine day of February. It was still cold and sitting in the sunlight in the lawn with flowers peeping all about was a pleasure. To enjoy the beauty of the weather, I picked up an interesting book and took my seat on a chair in the garden.
It was an interesting story. The lover was running after the beloved. Suddenly she tumbled on a stone and fell down.
‘PlopV there was a sound. I suddenly became alert to my surroundings. It was not my heroine but a big bag that had fallen on the lawn just a little distance from me.
I had heard so much about the people throwing bombs that I got up from my chair in panic. “Father ! Mother !” I cried.
They came running and with them came my little sister too.
We looked at the thing more closely. ‘Who knows it may be a bomb’, we said almost in unison. Neighbours had joined in and some dialled No. 100. Soon the police was there with its trained bomb squad.
A policeman carefully turned the bag with his stick. Lo! someone had thrown a bag full of rubbish (old used clothes) in our garden.

Some rag-picker with a bag on his back was picking up used plastic bottles and putting them into his bag.
“What’s your name?” I had decided to talk. He moved on without looking at me.
I took out a two rupee coin and showed it to him. He was now interested.
‘Salim’, he replied as he moved towards me.
“Don’t you have something better to do? Why don’t you go to school?”
“Why should I go to school? To be beaten by a teacher and that too without getting anything in return!”
I was . I could think of no answer and giving him that 2-rupee coin, ^ I moved on. I felt ashamed thinking of the ground realities.
