Direction: Read the given passage carefully and answer the questions that follow: There was but one tree in the street known Gali Ram Nathan. It was an ancient banyan that had grown through the cracks of an abandoned mosque- and little All's kite had caught in it branches. The boy, barefoot and clad only in a torn shirt, ran along the cobbled stones of the narrow street to where his grandfather sat nodding dreamily in the sunshine of their back courtyard. 'Grandfather shouted the boy. 'My kite has gone!' The old man woke from his daydream with a start and, raising his head, displayed a beard that would have been white had it not been dyed red with mehendi leaves. 'Did the twine break?' he asked to know that kite twine is not what it used to be. 'No, Grandfather, the kite is stuck in the banyan tree.' The old man chuckled. 'You have yet to learn how to fly a kite properly, my child. And I am too old to teach you, that's the pity of it. But you shall have another/ He had just finished making a new kite from bamboo paper and thin silk, and it lay in the sun, firming up. It was a pale pink kite, with a small green tail. The old man handed itto Ali, and the boy raised himself on his toes and kissed his grandfather's hollowed-out cheek. 'I will not lose this one', he said. 'This kite will fly like a bird.' And he turned on his heels and skipped out of the courtyard. The old man remained dreaming in the sun. His kite shop was gone, the premises long since sold to a junk dealer; but he still made kites, for his own amusement and for the benefit of his grandson, Ali. Not many people bought kites these days. Adults disdained them, and children preferred to spend their money at the cinema. Moreover, there were not many open spaces left for the flying of kites. The city had swallowed up the open grassland that had stretched from the old fort's walls to the river bank. |
How did Ali lose his first kite? |
