5. ‘My grandmother was a genius,’ says the poet. Justify your answer.

Answer: The poet Ruskin Bond calls his grandmother as ‘Genius’ as she could climb trees even at the age of 62. She was passionate to climb a tree. She could climb any type of tree may it be spreading or high. Everybody feared that granny would fall from a tree one day. Despite being advised to stop that practice; she would not stop. Once it so happened that she climbed a tree but couldn’t come down. After the rescue, the doctor recommended rest for a week. But for granny it was like a brief season in hell. She demanded a house to be built on a tree.

6. How does the poet discriminate Jazz player’s appearance with his artistic character?

Answer: The Jazz player has a rough unshaven face and sagging stomach. He wears a faded blue shirt, a loose necktie and an old jacket. His shoes are run down. Across his chest is an old alto saxophone supported from his neck by a wire coat hanger. The Jazz player at first has a weary expression on his face. He keeps his head down and appears lifeless. When it is his turn to play, he lifts the saxophone to his lips, suddenly; he is filled with a new life. He is no longer an ordinary may. He is like a bird flying higher and higher, totally lost in the beautiful music he produces.
