Answer:
The Duck exclaims to the kangaroo that it is very impressed with the kangaroo's ability to hop over land and water, seemingly without the need to stop. The Duck explains that its own life in the pond is boring and that it wants to explore the world. It could fulfill its dream if it could hop like the Kangaroo.
The Duck asks the Kangaroo for a ride on the Kangaroo's back. The Duck promises it would sit still and only quack all day. The Duck proposes traveling to places like the Dee and the Jelly Bo Lee, crossing land and water in the process. The Duck repeats its polite plea for a ride on the Kangaroo's back.
The Kangaroo explains to the Duck that it will need to consider the Duck's proposal. While it might be a source of good luck for the Kangaroo, the Kangaroo does have just one concern: to speak plainly, the Duck's wet, cold feet might make give the Kangaroo rheumatism (joint inflammation) if they are on the Kangaroo's back.
The Duck explains that it has thought of this concern already and has purchased four pairs of warm socks that fit its webbed feet well. The Duck has also purchased a cloak to stay warm and plans to smoke a cigar every day, all so that it may ride along with its dear friend, the Kangaroo.
The Kangaroo announces that it's ready to leave that night. The Kangaroo urges the Duck to sit on the end of the Kangaroo's tail to achieve the best balance possible. The Duck and the Kangaroo take off hopping and they travel around the world three times. There is no one as happy as the Duck and the Kangaroo.
Hope this helps you ....
⭐Summary:-
'The Duck and the Kangaroo' is a non-sensical poem that contains a dialogue between a Kangaroo and a Duck. The Duck is bored with her life in a pond and wants to travel the world. She asks the kangaroo to take her for a ride on his back. The kangaroo had objection to take Duck with him because he thought that the Duck had cold feet and the Kangaroo could catch a cold because of her. To this, the Duck replied that she had got warm socks and a cloak and a cigar to keep herself warm. And so the kangaroo would also be saved from cold. When kangaroo listened to this argument of the duck, he agreed to take her with him. He asked her to sit on his tail and both of them want for a ride. They travelled the world three times and were very happy.
