journalist and politician. As a writer, he is best known for his keen
secularism, sarcasm and love for poetry. This story gives us a real picture of
human relationship in a joint family. It is a perception of Khushwant Singh
of his grandmother. He describes how he had spent his childhood with his
gradmother in a village. He also describes the change that came in the
relationship in the city. When the author was a child, his grand mother used
to wake him up in the morning and get him ready for school. She would say
her morning prayer in monotonous sing song way while she bathed him and
dressed him in the hope that he would listen and get to know it by heart,
She would fetch his school equipments (slate, chalk, ink,etc.). She would
take him to school and help him in his studies in the evening. When they

settled in the city she was more concerned of his studies. When the author
went to university studies and went abroad for his higher studies she
accepted her seclusion with resignation. She did not show her sentiment and
emotions. She was the embodiment of all good virtues and she bequeathed
the same as rich legacy. Her life was a lesson for him throughout in this
life.Throughout her life span she lived a modest life. She wanted that the
life chain should continue along the beaten track. The elders would guide
the younger generation in teaching them how to care others. They inculcate
important aspects like thoughtfulness, kind-heartedness , discipline,
patience, ability of listening developing social skills, communication skills,
companionship, gaining wisdom beyond one‟s age, time management ,etc. to
the younger generation. In these ways the elders have positive influence on
younger generation.
In this story , though the grandmother had no proper schooling and no
formal education, she lived a life of Dedication and integrity. She never
compromised with her principles and was a determined woman. She had
shown her love for animals and birds in feeding the street dogs and
sparrows. These qualities certainly influenced by the author.

selection rejoice her spirit , she lacks in adequate financial resources. Lack of
adequate financial resources and sponsorships often affect sports person. This
is very much evident in Mary Kom‟s life. Her father managed to collect only
Rs.2000/-for her trip. She was both upset and very worried because she
heard of how expensive things were in America. Onler , one of her friends
managed to get two Members of Parliament to donate Rs5000/- and
Rs.3000/- for her trip. She left for America with sum of Rs. 10,000/-.
Pennsylvania was cold and it was snowing. Though she was restricted to the
arena, what she was pleasing to the eye. The people were friendly too.
Luckily she did not have a match on the day she landed. She was able to rest
and so win the first round comfortably with her opponent. This gave her
confidence and went on to the finals. As she was not accustomed to the food
in America she could not eat. This caused her to lose weight and before the
finals she was only 46 kg. Mary Kom felt that this was the reason that she
lost in the finals.
From 2001 to 2004, Mary Kom won many golds, all the Senior Women‟s Boxing
Championships, the second women‟s boxing Championships in 2002, the 2nd Asian
Women‟s Boxing Championship at Hisar in 2003 and the Witch cup boxing
championship at Paes, Hungary. After her wedding, she participated and won a gold in
the 3rd and 4th world women‟s boxing championship in October 2005 and November
2006. She won other international level championships in Taiwan, Vietnam, Denmark
and so on. She retained the world title in 2006 by defeating Steluta Duta of Romania 22-7
at the fourth world championship in New Delhi . She won the hat-trick of world
championship and so the media christened her as “Queen of Boxing” and “Magnificent
Mary.
Though she brought home the Silver Medal she was not satisfied
and was determined that she would win Gold the next time.

1x4=4
32. ONCE UPON A TIME
GABRIEL OKARA
Gabriel Okara (born 1921) is a Nigerian poet and novelist. He is a legend in
the field of English literature. In his poem “Once upon a time” he speaks
about Africa‟s cultural changes with the coming of western culture. It is a
monologue from a father to a son which bemoans(laments) the loss of
innocence in the transition from child to adult and a desire to back to that
blissful childhood. The father addresses his son telling how he remembers
that once people used to be open and expressive with their emotions with
laughter that reached their eyes, but now they are aloof and distance with
fake smiles. He says that there was a time when relationship were based on
mutual respect and cordiality. All right intension vanish. Everyone looks for
only their personal and material gain in vain.
“While their left hands search
My empty pockets”
Everybody is trying to use each other. He says that he has been stripped off
all genuine happiness and he feels depressed and frustrated. He too has
learned to say “Good- riddance”. He confesses that the society has pressed
him into a negative way. When he laughs before the mirror , he sees no
expression . His teeth are bare like that of the fangs of a snake. So, he asks his
son to show him how to laugh. He wants to be as his son, to be genuine and
true( which had not yet been beaten by the society). He says that he wants
to be as he used to be. The poet expresses his regret, sympathy and
hospitality of the society. He expiates his dual life . The poet warns the
society that the leagacy bequeathed to us should be nurtured and inculcated
with the truthfulness and hospitality.
If your thought , word and deed are one, you have already won

33. CONFESSION OF A BORN SPECTATOR
- OGDEN NASH
Frederic Ogden Nash , an American poet is well known for his light verse.
For his unconventional rhyming schemes and rhymical words he was
declared the country‟s best known humorous poet. The poet in this poem
talks about how people choose to opt for different sports in their lives or
decide to become athletes. At the same time, he confesses that he is glad
that he is neither a sportsman nor an athlete. But he admires the talent of all
the athletes. One dislikes entering in the boxing matches but another
approaches fully with heart and soul. The poet watches all these with wild
excitement. The poet witnesses the athletes, their dresses, their confidence
and their performances to win. He derives satisfaction by seeing them
playing. He does not wish to exchange places with them. One runs long to
win, another knocks out the champion down breaking his bones and spins
like a horse ride whips his large horse to run fast in the lane.
Enthusiastic athletes play well to win but they cannot feel the pain of other
competitors. The poet convinces that when there is a dispute between ego
and prudence, prudence always wins. When there is a tough dispute the
poet could hear the sudden sharp noise of the knee and cracking sound of
the wrist. When the authorities call for a doctor, my unpretentious soul
remains their sportiveness. Finally, the poet appreciates the sports persons
for a great and grand success. He confesses that he cannot participate with
any of the sports. He assures that again he will buy a ticket in the stadium
and enjoy the sports as an audience and not as a sportsperson.
“I am glad that my struggle begins
Twix t prudence and ego, prudence
wins”.

34. (a) AFTER TWENTY YEARS
-0. HENRY
William Sydney porter whose pen name is O. Henry is known as
“the master of the American short story” “After Twenty years” tells us the
story of two old friends who has made an appointment twenty years ago to
see each other again in New York city. It is nearly 10‟O clock and all‟s quiet
as the policemen (Jimmy wells) walks his beat, checking locks for safety.
Suddenly a though figure (Bob) standing in a door way catches his attention
and he approaches. Bob tells the lawman about his friend, Jimmy wells,
who‟d been more like a brother when they were younger. Bob praises
Jimmy‟s character and assures the policemen that he‟ll keep their
appointment at 10 o‟clock. Jimmy was always loyal. He always was the truest
chap in the world, He was a kind of plodder and he was accustomed to the
normal routine of his nation place. He refused to go out of New York to
make his fortune. But Bob was entirely different from Jimmy. He was
ambitions by nature and he went to the west to make his fortune, he was
well dressed. He looked respectable with his diamond scarf pin and an
expensive watch (diamond encrusted watch). It takes the west to put a razor-
edge on him. He neck name a law breaker in the west and became a
criminal.
As it is already quite nearly ten, the officer asks if the man will wait any
longer for Jimmy, and the friend says he‟ll give him half an hour as the
lawman continues his Patrol. Another man arrives after twenty minutes
whom Bob believes to be his friend Jimmy was the two men great each other
heartily. Bob realizes that the man in front of him doesn‟t have the same
nose as Jimmy. Jimmy had a straight nose which was different from the tall
man‟s. It is far too late for him to escape from the plainclothes man posing as
Jimmy. Before taking him into custody, however the officer handed, Bob a
note from Patrolman wells whom he‟d accidentally met earlier. Bot who
read the note with his hands steady trembled at the end. In the note, Jimmy
“ We Figured that in twenty years each of us ought to
have our destiny worked out and out fortune made”.

wells explained that he was in fact the officer who was with Bob at the site
of Big Joe Brady‟s restaurant at 10‟O Clock. But when Bob struck a match to
light his cigar, he recognized Bob‟s face as the one wanted in Chicago, Jimmy
didn‟t have the heart to bring him in himself to arrest his old friend.

(b) A SHOT IN THE DARK
- SAKI
H.H. Munro was remembered by his pen name „Saki‟. Munro is considered a
master of the short story. He used the fine narrative style. He was one of the
wittiest and funniest –writers of short fiction. The idiom „A shot in the dark‟
means a guess that has a small chance of being right. Here sletherby guessed
that Bertie was a fraud. But later he realized that Bertie had not lied to him
but that he had mistaken him for a fraud. Philip Sletherby aspires to become
a member of the parliament in the eastern division of the county of
Chalkshire. The gentleman who is holding the membership at present does
not seek re-election and Sletherby is considered to be his successor by the
party. Recently Sletherby has developed a contact with Mrs. Saltpen-Jago
who is a rich lady of social importance. As she can confirm his nomination
to the parliament he goes to meet her in her country residence in Brill
Manor.
“Seeing is believing”. This has been disproved in this story. When
Philip Sletherby meets Bertie in the railway carriage he was searching
something frantically. He introduces himself as Bertie the second son of Mrs.
Saltpen. He informs him that he has left his purse behind and he needs three
pounds desperately. So he asks Sletherby to lend him the amount. The
different about, the crests conveyed by Bertie to Sletherby a suspicion on
“Oh, you‟re staying with Mrs. Saltpen-Jago for the week-end, are you? I
expect you‟ll have a good time”.

similar to his, Sletherby suspected foul play and did not give him any money.
But after he was taken to Mrs. Saltpen‟s residence, Sletherby was gazing at
the door panel of the car, on which were the two crest. He was dumbstruck
on learning that Mrs. Saltpen-Jago had changed her dark brown hair to a
blonde just five weeks ago. He then realized that Bertie had not lied to him
but he had mistaken him for a fraud.
