critical juncture – weapons – truth and non-violence – strove for Hindu-Muslim unity and
casteless society – apostle of peace – assassinated – Father of the Nation.
Answer:
Gandhiji was the greatest Indian of the 20th century. It is remarkable that he led India in its
freedom movement at a critical juncture with nothing else but truth and non-violence as his
weapons. However, although this was his greatest contribution, there were other remarkable
achievements as well. Gandhiji strove relentlessly for Hindu-Muslim unity. His attempts to
form a casteless society are praiseworthy indeed. The annals of Indian history will be
incomplete if the accomplishments of this noble apostle of peace are forgotten. Although
Gandhiji – the Father of the Nation – was assassinated soon after India got freedom, his
principles have remained the guiding light of India.

dance till winter away – moral.
Answer:
A silly cricket, who is fun-loving and lazy, spends all his time in summer, singing and making
merry. He does not think of storing some food for his use in winter. When winter comes, there
is no food available and the cricket feels very hungry.

The cricket goes to an ant, tells him his plight, and begs for food. But the clever ant, which has
toiled the whole summer in storing food for use in winter, refuses to lend him any food. He
remarks that the cricket should dance all the winter in the same way as he did in summer. The
disappointed cricket goes away, realising his mistake. This story, though short, has a very
valuable moral that one should always save for harder days, instead of enjoying all the time.
