Exercise 5 ( Page No. : 31 )
Q:
A:

1. Yes, we have to ask our elders first, before giving anything to the needy.

2. My cousin is very talkative in my family. He finds it very difficult to sit quietly for five minutes as well. We dont feel like him every time talking but his knowledge is far better than us and he want to share his knowledge with us. He always talks on new topic which is quite interesting to listen and impressive also. But every time sharing only knowledge and no general talks is sometimes irritating.

3. Rukku Manni was also a kind hearted lady but would not have done the same thing like the children. If she had to give slippers to the beggar then she might have given those spare slippers which were either old or not in use and not of the music teacher. No, is not right for one party to blame the other because just as the coin has two faces, same way what children did was the deed of kindness shown to the beggar as per their age and thinking.
