Chandni Exercises Question and Answer<\/strong><\/p>\nDiscuss the following topics in groups.<\/p>\n
Question 1. \nWhy did the wise old bird say, \u201cChandni is the winner\u201d? \n(Encourage the students to discuss the given questions in groups.) \nAnswer: \nThe wise old bird said so because Chandni fought very bravely with the wolf and did not give up easily in front of an enemy who was much stronger than her. She did not want to die without putting up a good fight. She did not care about the success or failure, but did what she thought was best under the circumstance. She did not run away from the wolf, but confronted him, knowing that death was certain. But in the moment, even death did not scare her.<\/p>\n

Question 2. \n\u201cDeath in an open field is better than life in a small hut, \u201d Chandni said to herself Was it the right decision? Give reasons for your answer. \nAnswer: \nYes, it was the right decision because playing on the slopes and enjoying her new found freedom made Chandni much happier than she ever could have been in Abbu Khan\u2019s small hut. Her spirit told her to embrace and choose freedom over captivity. She valued freedom over and above life also. This is why she was not afraid to face the wolf. She knew that she was fighting for her belief in her freedom, and she did so till the very end of her life.<\/p>\n
Before she faces the wolf, she knows that she can go back to the safety of Abbu Khan\u2019s hut, but chooses to face her fear instead so as to protect her freedom.<\/p>\n
Question 3. \nFreedom is life. Discuss this with reference to \u2018Chandni\u2019 and 7 Want Something in a Cage \u2019. \nAnswer: \nFreedom is life. No form of life can grow without freedom. It is as dear to living beings as life itself. Both the stories \u2018Chandni\u2019 and \u2018I Want Something in a Cage\u2019 support and illustrate this thought perfectly. In the story \u2018I Want Something in a Cage\u2019, a man realizes the value of freedom after spending ten years in prison.<\/p>\n
His time in the prison has made him understand that all living beings need their freedom. So, he tries to buy the freedom of two doves with the money that he has. He does not want any living being to remain in captivity and go through the pain and anguish that he had felt in prison. Similarly, in the story \u2018Chandni\u2019, the protagonist Chandni, a goat, escapes from her owner because she wants to enjoy her freedom. She chooses to embrace death instead of captivity.<\/p>\n
She understands the true value of freedom just like the man in the story, \u2018I Want Something in a Cage\u2019. Both the protagonists in each story do not take their freedom for granted. To them, it is dearer than life itself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
