Write character sketch of Albert from the chapter a doorway to the world
Answers
Albert was very fond of computers and video games. He spent a lot of time in front of the screen. When anyone asked him to get involved in the normal life he would say that the computer was his doorway to the world.
He was an expert at playing a game in which involved collecting turtles. Probably, he had collected more turtles than anyone else in the world. But he still wanted more. A strange thing happened one day when he came back from school. The computer screen broke and there were thousands of turtles in his room.
His parents asked him to look after them. Gradually he learnt all about their diet and habits. He enjoyed playing with them. He forgot about his computer and preferred interacting with the turtles.
When the turtles disappeared he went to the pet shop and bought a turtle and another animal with his own savings. After that he spent his time in learning and discovering new things about nature and animals. He used to the computer to learn about them. When anyone asked him about it he would point to his pets and say that they were the doorway to his world.
