(B) LONG ANSWER TYPE QUESTIONS AND THEIR ANSWERS
Answer the following questions in not more than 60 words each :
Question 1.
What qualities of Serivan have been brought out in the story?
(इस कहानी में सेरीवन के कौन-कौन से गुण बताये गये हैं?)
Answer:
Serivan was an honest seller of pots and pans. He was the Bodhisattva in the kingdom of Seri. He clearly told the old woman that the bowl was made of pure gold. He took the bowl and gave five hundred silver coins to the old woman and her grand-daughter. He also gave them all the pots he had. Serivan was truthful. He did not cheat them by telling a lie. He was fearless. He did not care for the threats of the greedy seller.
सेरीवन बर्तन और कढ़ाइयों का एक ईमानदारे विक्रेता था। वह सेरी के राज्य में बोधिसत्व था। उसने बूढ़ी स्त्री से स्पष्ट बता दिया कि कटोरा शुद्ध सोने का बना है। उसने कटोरे को ले लिया और उस बूढ़ी स्त्री तथा उसकी नातिन को पाँच सौ चाँदी के सिक्के (रुपये) दिये। उसने उन सारे बर्तनों को भी दे दिया जो उसके पास थे। सेरीवन सच्चा था। उसने झूठ बोलकर उन्हें धोखा नहीं दिया। वह निर्भीक था। उसने लालची विक्रेता की धमकियों की परवाह नहीं की।
Question 2.
How was Serivan different from the greedy seller?
(सेरीवन उस लालची विक्रेता से किस प्रकार भिन्न था?)
Answer:
The greedy seller was dishonest. When he knew that the bowl of the poor woman was made of gold, he wanted to take the bowl for nothing. He pretended that it was useless and threw it on the ground scornfully. He left the house in anger.
Next day Serivan passed the same house. The old woman and the girl called Serivan in and told him to exchange the bowl. Taking the bowl in his hand Serivan said that it was made of gold. He had not so much money on him to exchange. But the woman asked Serivan to take the bowl and give them any thing he wished. Serivan gave them five hundred silver coins and all his pots. Thus Serivan was different from the greedy seller.
लालची विक्रेता बेईमान था। जब उसने जान लिया कि गरीब स्त्री का कटोरा सोने का बना है, तब वह उस कटोरे को बहुत ही कम कीमत में लेना चाहता था। उसने बहाना किया कि यह बेकार हैं और उसने इसे घृणापूर्वक जमीन पर फेंक दिया। वह नाराज होकर मकान से बाहर चला गया।
दूसरे दिन सेरीवन उसी मकान से गुजरा। उस बूढ़ी स्त्री और लड़की ने सेरीवन को अन्दर बुलाया और उससे कटोरे को बदलने के लिए कहा। कटोरे को हाथ में लेकर सेरीवन ने कहा कि यह सोने का बना है। उसके पास बदले में देने के लिए इतना धन नहीं है किन्तु बूढ़ी स्त्री ने सेरीवन से कटोरा लेने तथा उसे कुछ भी वस्तु जो वह चाहे, देने को कहा। सेरीवन ने उसे पाँच सौ चाँदी के सिक्के और अपने सारे बर्तन दे दिये। इस प्रकार सेरीवन उस लालची विक्रेता से भिन्न था।
Question 3.
Why did the greedy seller lose control over himself?
(लालची विक्रेता ने अपने आप पर नियंत्रण क्यों खो दिया?)
Answer:
The greedy seller was dishonest. After sometimes, he came back and said the old woman to bring out the bowl. Moved to anger at his pretence, the old woman said that you had told the bowl was worth nothing. She also told him that an honest seller gave them five hundred silver coins and all his pots for the bowl. Now regretting his loss the greedy seller was so full of sorrow, disappointment and so maddened that he lost control over himself.
लालची विक्रेता बेईमान था। कुछ समय बाद वह वापस आया और बूढ़ी औरत से कटोरा लाने को कहा। उसके बहाने पर क्रोधित होकर उस बूढ़ी स्त्री ने कहा कि तुमने कहा था कि कटोरा बेकार है। उसने यह भी कहा कि एक ईमानदार विक्रेता ने उसे कटोरे के बदले पाँच सौ चाँदी के सिक्के और अपना सारा बर्तन दे दिया। अब अपनी हानि पर दुःख प्रकट करते हुए वह लालची विक्रेता दुःख और निराशा से इतना भर गया और इतना पागल हो गया कि वह अपने आप पर नियंत्रण खो बैठा।
Question 4.
What happened to the greedy seller?
(लालची विक्रेता का क्या हुआ?)
Answer:
The greedy seller regretted the loss. He blamed Serivan that he had cheated him. He had interfered with his plans. He rushed after Serivan to take revenge but Serivan had left in the boat. Watching the boat helplessly, the greedy seller shouted insults at Serivan. With all his excitement and jealously, the heart of the greedy seller burst and he dropped down dead at last.
लालची विक्रेता ने हानि पर दुःख प्रकट किया। उसने सेरीवन पर दोष लगाया कि उसने उसे धोखा दिया है। उसने उसकी योजनाओं में हस्तक्षेप किया था। वह बदला लेने के लिए सेरीवन के पीछे भागा किन्तु सेरीवन की नावे छूट चुकी थी। नाव को असहाय होकर देखते हुए लालची विक्रेता ने सेरीवन को अपमानजनक शब्द कहे। सारी उत्तेजना और ईष्र्या के कारण लालची विक्रेता का हृदय फट गया और अन्त में वह गिर कर मर गया।
Question 5.
What lesson do you learn from the story ‘A Golden Bowl’?
(‘ए गोल्डेन बाउल’ कहानी से तुम्हें क्या शिक्षा मिलती है?)
Answer:
The story ‘A Golden Bowl’ teaches us a great moral. The character of Serivan teaches us that we should be honest, truthful, gentle and fearless. We should not cheat others. Serivan is the symbol of all the noble qualities. He clearly said that the bowl was made of pure gold. Greed is the root cause of evils—the character of the greedy seller shows it. He could not control over himself. His heart burst and he dropped down dead.
‘ए गोल्डेन बाउल’ की कहानी हमें एक महान नैतिकता सिखाती है। सेरीवन का चरित्र हमें सिखाता है कि हमें ईमानदार, सच्चा, सभ्य और निर्भीक होना चाहिए। हमें दूसरों को धोखा नहीं देना चाहिए। सेरीवन सभी अच्छे गुणों का प्रतीक है। उसने स्पष्ट रूप से कह दिया कि कटोरा सोने का बना हुआ है। लालची विक्रेता का चरित्र यह प्रदर्शित करता है कि लालच बुराइयों की जड़ है। वह अपने आप पर नियंत्रण नहीं रख सका। उसका हृदय फट गया और वह गिर कर मर गया।
