NCERT CLASS 8 ENGLISH CH 1 SUPPLYMENTERY

 





QUESTION 1: What tasks, do you think, were assigned to                          the dog and the ox?


ANSWER : Different tasks were assigned to different                             animals. The dog was assigned to fetch and                         carry sticks since he was carrying a stick in                         his  mouth. The ox was assigned to plough the                     field as there was a yoke on his neck.


 QUESTION 2: Why did the camel live in the middle of the                           desert?


ANSWER : Of all the animals, the camel was the laziest                         animal as he did not want to work and help                           man. Hence, he lived in the middle of a                                 howling desert because he did not want to                           work. He ate sticks, thorns and prickles and                         whenever anybody came to speak to him he                         just said “Humph!” and nothing more.


QUESTION : What made the dog, the horse and the ox                              very angry ?

ANSWER :   The dog the horse and the ox were very                                  angry because the men assigned them the                            work of the camel to as he lay lazy in the                              middle of the desert .This meant that the                              three of them would need to work double-                            time in order to make up for the camel's                                laziness.
