SET - 5
1. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:
Swami hoped that with this his father would be made to see why he must avoid school for the day. But Father's behaviour took an unexpected turn. He proposed to send a letter with Swami to the headmaster. No amount of protest from Swami would make him change his mind. By the time Swami was ready to leave for school, Father had composed a long letter to the headmaster. He put it in an envelope and sealed it. "What have you written, Father?" Swami asked apprehensively. "Nothing for you. Give it to your headmaster and go to your class." "Have you written anything about our teacher Samuel?" "Yes. Plenty of things." "What has he done, Father?" "Everything is there in the letter. Give it to your headmaster." Swami went to school feeling that he was the worst boy on earth. His conscience bothered him. He wasn't at all sure if his description of Samuel had been accurate. He felt he had mixed up the real and the imagined. Swami stopped on the roadside to make up his mind about Samuel. Samuel was not such a bad man after all. Personally he was much more friendly than the other teachers. Swami also felt Samuel had a special regard for him. Swami's head was dizzy with confusion. He could not decide if Samuel really deserved the allegations made against him in the letter. The more he thought of Samuel, the more Swami grieved for him. To recall Samuel's dark face, his thin moustache, unshaven cheek and yellow coat filled Swaminathan with sorrow.

She opened up her little bag and I came twice awake-
Surrounded by a staring tribe and me tied to a stake.

We are chopped down, we are torn up, you do not blink an eye.
Unless you make a promise now-now you are going to die.'
'Whenever you see an oak-tree felled, swear now you will plant two.
Unless you swear the black oak bark will wrinkle over you
And root you among the oaks where you were born but never grew.'

My walk was the walk of a human child, but my heart was a tree.

There was a chance Samuel might do something during the course of the day to justify the letter. Swami stood at the entrance to his class. Samuel was teaching arithmetic. He looked at Swami. Swami hoped Samuel would scold him severely. "You are half an hour late," Samuel said. "I have a headache, sir." Swami said. "Then why did you come at all?" This was an unexpected question from Samuel. Swami said, "My father said I shouldn't miss school, sir." Samuel looked impressed. "Your father is quite right. We want more parents like him." "Oh, you poor man!" Swami thought, "you don't know what my father has done to you." "All right, go to your seat." Swami sat down, feeling sad. He had never met anyone as good as Samuel. The teacher was inspecting the home lessons. To Swami's thinking, this was the time when Samuel got most angry. But today Samuel appeared very gentle. "Swaminathan, where is your homework?" "I have not done my homework, sir," Swami said. "Why-headache?" asked Samuel. "Yes, sir." "All right, sit down," Samuel said. When the bell rang for the last period at 4.30, Swami picked up his books and ran to the headmaster's room. He found the room locked. The peon told him the headmaster had gone on a week's leave. Swaminathan ran away from the place. As soon as he entered home with the letter, Father said, "I knew you wouldn't deliver it." "But the headmaster is on leave," Swami said.
