THE VILLAGER AND THE SPECTACLES

There was a villager. The villager ( ) was illiterate. The villager ( ) did not know how to read and write. The villager ( ) often saw people wearing spectacles for reading books or papers. The villager ( ) thought, “If I have spectacles, I can also read like these people. I must go to town and buy a pair of spectacles for myself.” So one day the villager ( ) went to a town.

The villager ( ) entered a spectacles shop .The villager asked the shopkeeper for a pair of spectacles for reading. The shopkeeper gave the villager ( ) various pairs of spectacles and a book. The villager tried all the spectacles one by one. But the villager ( ) could not read anything. The villager ( ) told the shopkeeper that all those spectacles were useless for the villager ( ) .The shopkeeper gave the villager ( ) a doubtful look. Then the shopkeeper ( ) looked at the book. It was upside down!

The shopkeeper said, “Perhaps you don’t know how to read.”The villager said, “No, I don’t. I want to buy spectacles so that I can read like others. But I can’t read with any of these spectacles.” The shopkeeper controlled The shopkeeper‘s ( ) laughter with great difficulty when the shopkeeper ( ) learnt the real problem of the shopkeeper’s ( ) illiterate customer. The shopkeeper ( ) explained to the villager, “My dear friend, you are very ignorant. Spectacles don’t help to read or write. They only help you to see better. First of all you must learn to read and write.”

Moral: Ignorance is blindness.

Answer. G

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun.

Example: Raman is a mail carrier. Raman carries a blue bag.

To make the second sentence sound better, you can change the word Raman to he.

New sentence: Raman is a mail carrier. He carries a blue bag.

The word he is a pronoun that takes the place of the word Raman.

Some common pronouns include:

I, you, he, she, it, we, they, you, him, her, them, it, us

Qn. Circle the pronouns in the sentences below.

Remember that some sentences have more than one pronoun.

• Six of us had to squeeze in the tiny car.
