Question

Write the character sketch of Sergei in about 80 words from the class 9th moments lesson "The beggar".​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Sergei is an accomplished and prosperous advocate. He has a keen eye – he recalls having met Lushkoff earlier. He is a stem, straightforward man who hates lies. He is short-tempered and reprimands Lushkoff mercilessly for swindling. He believes in hard work and refuses to give Lushkoff any money unless the latter works for him. He is assertive and makes Lushkoff undertake the hard task of chopping wood. He does not leave anything to itself and hence watches Lushkoff cutting wood to make sure that the drunkard reforms through hard work. He supports the poor beggar and gives him work every time the latter comes asking for it. He is also kind because he begins to consider Lushkoff as his godson. He is genuinely happy to see a reformed Lushkoff.Sergei displays just one weak trait and that is his tendency to self-eulogise. He emphasizes his own contribution to reforming Lushkoff without giving any thought to the possibility of other factors have helped the man.

Overall, Sergei is a character who is somewhat vain about the good that he does.
