Valli's dream was to enjoy a ride on the bus to the nearest town.what preparation did she make to realise her dream
Answers
Answer:
She was planning to take a ride in the bus. The town was six miles away from her village; the fare was thirty paise one way; the
trip to the town took forty-five minutes one way. On and on went her thoughts as she calculated and recalculated, planned and replanned.
Valli selected the afternoon time for journey for various reasons. Firstly, it was the time her mother took the afternoon nap; she could quietly take the bus ride without any interference and objection from her. Secondly, the crowd on the bus at this time was very less. She could begin her journey at 1 p.m. and return home by 2:45 p.m.
She had thriftily saved whatever stray coins came her way, resisting every temptation to buy peppermints, toys, balloons, and the like, and finally she had saved a total of sixty paise.
