CBSE Class 9 English - Chapter: Packing (Q & A) #cbseTerm2 #class9English #eduvictors



Q1: Name the novel from where the extract is taken from?

Answer: Three Men in a Boat


Q2: Who is the author of the Novel?

Answer: Jerome 


Q3: Justify the title of the chapter 'Packing'.

Answer: “Packing” is an appropriate title for this extract from the novel ‘Three Men in a Boat’. It forms one of the chapters of the novel. The three men are – Jerome, George and Harris. They have to go on a pleasure boat journey and have to pack for it. All three of them think they are ‘past masters’ in the art of packing, but all they end up creating is an utter mess. They blame each other for being poor at packing and each boasts of his packing acumen. Thus, the extract is all about packing and, therefore, the title is appropriate.

My Aim in Life (English Essays) #eduvictors #essays

I want to be an engineer in life. Life is full of variety. There are different types of careers. Because of differences in the natures and abilities of persons, people take up different careers. Opportunities also matter. Sometimes people may have abilities but not opportunities. Then they have to be satisfied with something different. I am lucky in this respect.  My father is an officer with the Government of India. I am the only child of my parents. Luckily I am a good student too. So,if I am selected for the engineering competition, money will be no problem. And I am confident that I will be selected. I am training myself to study seriously from that angle.

Translated By: A.K. Ramanujan (translated the Tamil poem to English)


Poem Summary

This poem is of the Pre-Independence Era where Britishers ruled India. Subramania Bharti is a patriotic and endorses his love by pouring out anger and frustration in this poem. His anguish against the devastation caused and the struggling period Indian peasants & workers were going through is compared by the destruction caused by wind. Wind is metaphorically describing the obstacles or the hindrances that come and destroy a person's life. He starts by requesting the wind not to shatter down everything as it has crumbled so many lives. Wind symbolises the difficulties that are faced in lives.
