Working with the poem.
1.Answer the following questions.
(i) Who is the speaker in the poem?
Ans:-A little girl/boy is the speaker in the poem.
(ii) Is she/he afraid or curious, or both?
Ans:-Yes, she/he is both afraid and curious.
(iii) What is she/he planning to do soon?
Ans:-She/he is planning to get inside the shed one day very soon.
(iv) “But not just yet...”suggests doubt, fear, hesitation, laziness or something else. Choose the words which seems right to you. Tell others why you choose it?
Ans:-"But not just yet..." suggests her fear and strong hesitation. I chose these words because she feared that the ghost would chop off her head. That is why she has a fearful hesitation.
2. Is there a room in your house or a house in your neighborhood/locality where you rather not go alone, and never at night? If there is such a place and a story to go with it, let others hear all about it.
Ans:-Yes, there is a big building near my house in which people say, stays a frightening ghost. She comes after 12 at night in a white sari. This building is empty for about 36 years since the death of a single owner Ram Laddu Singh. He was a big landlord of this area. He had a daughter Khushi Singh. Khushi Singh got married and the building almost emptied. Only after 2 years her mother passed away. Now her father was alone in the building with his only attendant. All of a sudden, one day at night he died of heart failure. The building is still locked. People dare not get inside it because every night the ghost in white sari comes and worships Durga established in the building.
