Imagery

1. What scenes, moments, descriptive passages, phrases, or words stand out in you reading of the story?

I was shocked when Sekhar said to his wife that her cooking was suck and his wife didn't replied anything. Normally, when someone say bad thing to someone, they should reply back with somethings, but in the story, Sekhar's wife didn't reply so I was very shocked.

2. Did a particular image make you feel happy, or frightened, or disturbed, or angry? Why?

A particular image made me feel happy and frightened. It is when the headmaster had taken Sekhar to a music thing. After listening, the headmaster asked Sekhar for a suggestion. Sekhar replied that the music was bad. If I was Sekhar, I wouldn't have that courage to say that so I was frightened at that moment when I read it. I felt happy because Sekhar told the truth and the next day, the headmaster told Sekhar that his suggestion was useful which I felt that telling truth to anyone even tough it is negative is still better than telling untrue things to make them feel happy.

3. Which of your five senses did this image appeal to? What do you associate with this image, and why? What do you think the author wants you to feel about a certain image?











I got appealed in vision sense. I think that the author wants me to feel certain image that there are no lies in this world that could be kept forever.






4. How do you think your reactions to the imagery in the story contribute to the overall meaning of the story?

It tells me that Sekhar is very brave because he tells truth to everyone even tough their feeling may be hurt. Justlike when he suggested the headmaster that the music was bad. The headmaster should have been angry at that moment but later he was very happy.
