Think About It (Page 13)
Q. 1. What are Hari Singh's reactions to the prospect of receiving an educa tion? Do they change over time? (Hint. Compare for example, the thought, "I knew that once I could write like an educated man there would be no limit to what I could achieve" with these later thoughts: "Whole sentences, I knew, could one day bring me more than a few hundred rupees. It was a simple matter to steal-and sometimes just as simple to be caught. But to be a really big man, a clever and respected man, was something else.") What makes him return to Anil?
प्र. 1. शिक्षा प्राप्त करने की संभावना पर हरि सिंह की क्या प्रतिक्रियाएँ हैं? क्या वे समय के साथ बदलते हैं? (संकेत। उदाहरण के लिए, इस विचार की तुलना करें, "मुझे पता था कि एक बार मैं एक शिक्षित व्यक्ति की तरह लिख सकता हूं तो मैं जो हासिल कर सकता हूं उसकी कोई सीमा नहीं होगी" इन बाद के विचारों के साथ: "पूरे वाक्य, मुझे पता था, एक दिन मुझे ला सकता है कुछ सौ रुपये से अधिक। चोरी करना एक साधारण बात थी-और कभी-कभी पकड़े जाने के लिए भी सरल। लेकिन वास्तव में एक बड़ा आदमी, एक चतुर और सम्मानित व्यक्ति होना कुछ और था।") उसे अनिल के पास क्या लौटाता है ?
Ans. Hari Singh's reactions to the prospect of receiving an education undergo a change.
In the beginning he thinks one thing. If he wrote like an educated man he could achieve success (or money). His later thoughts prove this change. Later he feels different. If he wrote sentences, he would get more money than hundreds. Money doesn't hold much attraction for him now. Through education he wants to become a big, clever and respected man. May be Anil is his idol in that. This makes him return to Anil. It is because only Anil could teach him as he wants.
Q. 2. Why does not Anil hand the thief over to the police? Do you think most people would have done so ? In what ways is Anil different from such employers?
प्र. 2. अनिल चोर को पुलिस के हवाले क्यों नहीं करता? क्या आपको लगता है कि ज्यादातर लोगों ने ऐसा किया होगा? अनिल ऐसे नियोक्ताओं से किस प्रकार भिन्न है?
Ans. I feel that Anil is a large-hearted person. First, he realises that he has been robbed. But he reviews the whole situation. He thinks of one thing about the thief. It he gives him to the police, he may become a criminal. He decides to reform the thief differently. It is by show ing grace, kindness and sympathy.
Most people could not do so like Anil. They could have handed over such persons to the police after beating them themselves. Anil is different because he decides to reform the thief through kindness and sympathy.
