I will <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">cover my feet with four pair of socks, and wear a cloak from head to toe. I will also smoke a cigar every day to keep warm<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Question 3.<br \/>\nThe Kangaroo does not want to catch \u2018rheumatism \u2019. Spot this word in stanza 3 and say why it is spelt differently. Why is it in two parts? Why does the second part begin with a capital letter?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe word used by the Kangaroo for rheumatism is Roo-Matiz. It is spelt differently because this is a nonsense poem, and the poet did not want to use such a heavy term in a poem. It is in two parts because the poet wanted to use a word that rhymes with kangaroo. The second part begins with a capital letter because it is at the beginning of the line.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/NCERT-Solutions.png?resize=180%2C18&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 8 English Honeydew Poem 6 The Duck and the Kangaroo\" width=\"180\" height=\"18\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nDo you find the poem humorous? Read aloud lines that make you laugh.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nYes, the poem is extremely humorous. It is about a kangaroo and duck talking about going on a tour together. It is a nonsense poem, and uses some words that have no meaning. Some of the lines that made me laugh are as follows:<\/p>\n<p>Your feet are unpleasantly wet and cold,<br \/>\nAnd would probably give me the roo-<br \/>\nMatiz! \u2019said the Kangaroo.<\/p>\n<p>And I bought four pairs of worsted socks Which fit my web-feet neatly.<br \/>\nAnd to keep out the cold I\u2019ve bought a cloak,<br \/>\nAnd every day a cigar I \u2019ll smoke,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NCERT Solutions for Class 8 English The Duck and the Kangaroo NCERT Solutions for Class 8 English Honeydew Poem 6 The Duck and the Kangaroo NCERT Text Book Questions and Answers The Duck and the Kangaroo Working with the poem Question 1.
