THREE QUESTONS 7 1 "i t 1111 SUMMARY Three OF THE LESSON Questions Lu7~ A king once thought that he would never fail if he knew three things. One, what the right time was to begin something. Two, which people he should take advice from. Three, how to decide what the most important thing to do was. He sent messengers throughout his kingdom. He promised to give a reward of a large sum to the person who answered his three questions. Many wise men tried their luck. They gave a number of answers. One said that the king should go by a timetable. Another said that the king should do whatever seemed him necessary at the moment. The third suggested that the king should consult wise men or magicians. Answering the second question, they gave top importance to his councillors, or to priests or to doctors or to soldiers. n reply to the third question, the wise men gave im,.portance to science or fighting or religious worship. The king was not satisfied. He went to a hermit in the jungle alone. There he saw the old and weak hermit digging the ground. The king asked his questions but got no answer. Then he took the spade from the hermit and began to work in his place. Several hours passed. t was evening, so the king stopped digging the beds. The king was ready to take leave from the hermit. Just then the hermit told that someone was running towards them. 11 The king saw a bearded man running towards them. His hands were pressed against his stomach from which blood was oozing. As he reached the king, he fainted and fell to the ground. He had a large wound in his stomach. The king washed the wound and compressed it with his handkerchief. At last the bleeding stopped. The man felt better and asked for water to drink. The king gave him fresh water. The sun had set by then. The king and the hermit carried the wounded man into the hut and laid him on the bed. The tired king also fell asleep. When he awoke, the bearded man asked to forgive him. The man was, in fact, the king's enemy. He had followed the king to take revenge on him. He had vowed to kill him. The king had once put his brother to death. The man hid himself in a bush on the way to the jungle. He came out of his hiding place when the king did not return for long. He got wounded by king's bodyguards. He would have died if the king had not dressed his wound. He felt grateful to the king who had saved his life. He promised to serve the king as a faithful servant. The king was happy that he had made peace with his enemy. He forgave the man and promised to give back his property. The king then went up to the hermit. He again asked for answers to his three questions. The hermit explained that by digging the beds for him, the king had escaped attack. So the most important time was when he was digging the beds. The hermit himself was the most important person. So to do him good was the king's most important business. The hermit further told the king that the most important person for him was the person with him at a particular moment. The most important business was to help that person. And the most important time was 'now' that is, the present moment. TEXTBOOK QUESTONS SOLVED COMPREHENSON CHECK (Page 10) 1. Why did the king want to know answers to three questions?

The tail looks like a question mark. ts loose skin looks like a gray overcoat. t likes to play. When a person runs after it, it goes in the opposite direction. TEXTBOOK QUESTONS SOLVED WORKNGWTH THE POEM (Page 17) 1. Why does the poet say the squirrel "wore a question mark for tail''? Draw a squirrel, or find a picture of a squirrel sitting on the ground. How would you describe its tail? The tail of a squirrel is curved at the tip. t is so made that it looks like a mark of interrogation. (Paste the picture of a squirrel with his long, curved tail. Then describe it yourself.) 2. Do we usually say that an animal 'wears' a tail? What do we say? (Think: Does an animal wear a coat? Consult a dictionary if you like, and find out how 'wear' is used in different ways.) No, we do not use the word 'wear' for an animal's tail. We say that the tail is straight or curved. Different ways in which 'wear' is used: She wears jeans and top. She always wears a smile.

14 "... This slipper will wear out soon. The day wore on until it became dark. 3. "He liked to tease and play." Who is teasing whom? How? The squirrel teases the person with whom he plays. He will run around the tree and change direction suddenly. 000
