The restrictions of formal schooling make children detest their learning. Hence the poet questions when the buds are nipped and \u2018blossoms blown away, and tender plants are stripped\u2019, how can a child get happiness in learning.<\/p>\n<p>Question 15.<br \/>\nHow was Krishna cured of his illness in \u2018Around a Medicinal Creeper\u2019?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nKrishna was suffering from piles and met the narrator to get some help. But the narrator only helped him with some money which was not enough for the treatment. But Krishna knew a Malayali Sadhu. This godman had treated Krishna on an earlier occasion when Krishna had started d\u00ebveloping boils all over his body. The godman had cured him with the barks of a tree. Krishna went in search of the godman. but he was too old and could not search for the medicinal creepers. He described the features of the plant to Krishna. Krishna went in search of the leaves and on the way he met the narrator and described the leaves. The narrator understood that those were the leaves that Mara and Appanna had tied to the nearest tree. The narrator took him to the plant and dug quite a bit to get the tuber. Krishna ground this root with milk and drank it. In this way, he was cured of piles within five days.<\/p>\n<p>Question 16.<br \/>\nGive an account of the embarrassing experience of the narrator at the restaurant in \u2018Oru Manushyan\u2019.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nOnce. the narrator went to a restaurant with fourteen rupees in his wallet kept in the pocket and ate a full meal consisting of chapatis and meat carry. He drank tea. The bill was eleven annas. He searched his pocket to pay the bill, but was shocked that his wallet was not in his pocket and someone had stolen it. When he said the same to the owner. the owner caught him by the lapels and ordered him to pay up. But as he did not have any moue\u2019. he offered to keep his coat there and later ould bring some money and claim the coat. But the owner asked him to take if all his clothes. When he was removing them with great humiliation, a stranger came and helped the narrator by paying his bill.<\/p>\n<p>Question 17.<br \/>\nHow does money trigger fear in an individual in \u2018Money Madness\u2019?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe narrator used to forego his breakfast and morning tea so that he had the money for his evening meal and tea. One day as usual he came to the crowded restaurant and had his regular meal and tea. When he had to pay the bill. he realized that his wallet had been picked. He revealed this fact to the owner who only found it funny and laughed out loud, Though the narrator offered to leave his coat with the owner, he forced the narrator to take off all his clothes. As the narrator was very much ashamed of taking off his trousers, a stranger stopped him and paid his bill. He later made the narrator wear his clothes and took him away.<\/p>\n<p>When the narrator praised and thanked him. the stranger just laughed. He did not recall his name but only warned the narrator against speaking about him. The stranger showed five wallets to the narrator. out of which one was the narrators. The stranger told the narrator to check whether his money was intact, and he wished him good luck. The narrator had mixed feelings by now\u2019. It was clear that his humiliation at the restaurant was due to the stranger\u2019s picking his wallet and rendering him helple\u0161s. But he is also thankful for his help at the right moment. avoiding the humiliation of standing \u0161tark naked in front of all the people. He felt that the stranger had perhaps undergone a transformation during his own interaction with the restaurant owner. This made him say at the end, \u2018May God helps you, and leave without Saving anything more to the stranger.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kseebsolutions.guru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/KSEEB-Solutions.png\" alt=\"KSEEB Solutions 1st PUC English Previous Year Question Paper March 2020 (North)\" width=\"146\" height=\"13\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 18.<br \/>\nWhy does the speaker want to be a tree in \u2018If I was a Tree\u2019?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe speaker wanted to be a tree because no one would discriminate against it and birds wouldn&#8217;t ask to what caste it belonged and sunlight would (approach) embrace it and its shadow wouldn\u2019t be termed polluted. It can make friendship with the cool breeze, and raindrops would not go back by thinking that it is untouchable, The tree would feel happy with the touch of a sacred cow and it would get the opportunity of providing shelter for the hundred thousand Gods said to be residing in the cow. The tree can become pure when it is cut into dry pieces and burnt in the holy fire and can help the sinless dead body by becoming a bier on the shoulders of four good men.<\/p>\n<p>The poem describes the sense of equality present in nature. Sunlight and cool breeze treat everybody with love and spread their sweetness to all without discrimination, Unlike some humans who feel polluted getting in contact with the untouchables, nature has no such sense of superiority. All are equal in their eves.<\/p>\n<p>The poem also presents social discrimination, as the speaker is much humiliated by the social discrimination and wanted to become a tree to escape from discrimination in society. He feels the safety. purity and generosity and helping nature of a tree more than in human beings. In a society. a man without thinking of helping others. thinks which is pure and which is polluted. He neglects and discriminates against some and appreciates others in name of caste, creed mid religion. So this practice is meaningless and the practice must be prohibited to sustain equality in society.<\/p>\n<p>Question 19.<br \/>\nBring out the significance of the sacred spot that Mara described in \u2018Watchman of the Lake\u2019.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe place was very sacred. Water had flowed on since the day Hanuman took the Sanjeevini. Its birth was in the fleeting mists of the mountain top. and on its av through rare flowers and forests, it has come down to their i11age. River Veda carried nectar in its bosom which revived Gods and nourished mortals. But, in summer Veda stops flowing and villagers die of drought. To get water the whole ear. they need to build a tank for Veda, That was the significance of that place. It was the place where Sanjeevini grew.<\/p>\n<p>Question 20.<br \/>\nThe poem \u2018Farmer\u2019s Wife\u2019 highlights the plight of the widows after the death of husbands. Discuss.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe poem The Farmer\u2019s Wife\u201d is a tragic poem that reflects the helpless conditions of farmers\u2019 widows. The plight of the widows is explained by one such widow. The poet uses many phrases to contrast her condition with that of her dead husband. She called the farmer virtuous\u2019 and herself a poor sinner\u2019. The farmer was unable to pay the debts and he left all the debts to his wife, so she was very sad about his act of committing suicide. The feminist concept was also highlighted in the poem, the phrase \u201cI was born with a head bent\u201d justifies the discrimination in our society between men and women.<\/p>\n<p>Man is born with his head held high, but a woman is born with her head bent. But he did not face his creditors bravely and left all this to his wife to solve. She accused her husband that he poisoned himself and gone away by poisoning his wife&#8217;s existence. She remembered the memories of his beating, blaming, drinking, and kicking haunting her. She never dreamt that he would commit suicide, It was true that the crop was gone but the debt remained there and dignity had hit the dust. She expresses her helplessness that how would she be able to bear the burden of their four children. She compared her condition with \u201cworn-eaten cotton pods.\u201d She got ambiguous and asked what was that and why he committed suicide.<\/p>\n<p>At last, she confidently asserts her determination to struggle out her life even without her husband for the sake of her children. So, she shows a strong will to survive against all difficulties. Her voice is raised against society in general,<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kseebsolutions.guru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/KSEEB-Solutions.png\" alt=\"KSEEB Solutions 1st PUC English Previous Year Question Paper March 2020 (North)\" width=\"146\" height=\"13\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 21.<br \/>\nWhy wasn\u2019t Douglass much affected by his mother\u2019s death?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nFrederick Douglass was separated from his mother before he was twelve months old. He had spent very little time with her and that too only during a few night times. He lost her at the age of seven and never enjoyed any care and communication during those years. So, he was not affected by her death.

There are also many watch-towers on the enemy side, outside the wall on hilltops or passes there and towers of the wall were used for signaling with smoke or flags by day and with fire by night.<\/p>\n<p>The great emperor high Haung Ti joined three earlier frontier walls to form a great wall to act as a boundary between China and the North and keep out the feared nomads of the Mongolian steppes.

The man who did most in carrying out the emperor\u2019s plans was general Meng Tien, who 221 B.C. led an expedition against Tartars and drove them back from the yellow river into the steppes, and set his men to work on building the wall.
