CBSE Class 5 English Revision Worksheet Set E

A. Summary of the lesson-

This chapter is written by very famous writer Ruskin Bond. In this lesson the narrator describes the difficulties that the Indian children face while going to school. These children belong from different areas like deserts, mountains, plains etc. Here he tells about a ten years old boy Ranbir. He climbs a mountain four miles distant and two thousand feet below the town level. He goes to school in all the weathers, wearing the same pair of cheap shoes until they have almost fallen apart. There are many children like Ranbir who go to government school because their parents can’t afford to send them expensive residential schools. Their parents are also uneducated because they didn’t manage to go schools. They spent their lives working in fields or delivering milk in the hill station. The narrator also tells that up to a few years ago, very few girls in the hills or in the villages went to school. They helped at home until they were old enough to be married. But now, there are many girls go to school like boys. But sometimes, these girls are prevented to go school by their parents due to some household work while their brothers spend their time in playing. For this the narrator gives the example of a girl Bindra who is fourteen years old. These children face many difficulties to go to school. Like Ranbir and his friends cross deodar forest daily. As winter approaches and days grow shorter, those children who live far away must quicken their pace in order to reach home before dark. Its dark at six and Ranbir likes to be out of the deodar forest. Usually, he has company of other boys and they all sing loudly to frighten away the forest demons. Not only in hills, but all over the India, children are constantly making their way to and from school, in conditions that range from dust storms in the deserts of Rajasthan to blizzards in Ladakh and Kashmir. In the Ganjam district of Orissa, children swim or wade across the Dhanei River every day in order to reach school in the absence of a bridge. Holding books or bags aloft in one hand, they do the breaststroke or dog paddle with the other, or form a chain and help each other across. In the larger towns and cities, there are school buses, but in the remote areas, it is a big problem. The narrator says wherever you go in India you will find children helping out with the family’s source of livelihood. Only some fortunate parents can afford to send their children to English medium schools and those children are really fortunate. While the great majority children in India still attend schools run by the state or municipality. These vary from the good to the bad, depending on how they are run and where they are situated.

This lesson describes different interesting facts about these turtles like- they come to the beaches in a large number to lay their eggs. They dig long nests on the beaches and lay 100 to150 eggs. Turtles are very interesting animals but they are threatened by human activities. Many turtles lose their lives every year by different human activities like- Polluted water, hunting, offshore oil exploration etc. There are some other causes (Ex- habitat loss due to changes in beach dynamics, electric lights on the beaches) that are equally responsible to decrease their population. Now-a-days, many conservationists are protesting to save the turtles. We should also help them to save the turtles.

Topic : Pronoun and Its Kinds

Definition- A pronoun is word that is used in place of a noun. We can replace a noun with a pronoun.
Examples- he, she, you, we, they, his, etc.

Kinds of Pronouns
1. Personal pronoun
2. Demonstrative Pronoun
3. Interrogative Pronoun
4. Possessive Pronoun
5. Reflexive Pronoun
6. Emphatic Pronoun

Personal Pronoun- A pronoun that stands for a person or a thing is called a personal pronoun.
Personal pronouns are of two types-
1. Subject Pronouns- They act as the subject of a sentence such as I, you, he, etc.
2. Object Pronouns- They act as the object of a verb and preposition in a sentence such as me, him, her, etc.

Demonstrative Pronoun- It is used to point out the object or objects to which it refers.
Example- this, that, these and those.

Interrogative Pronoun- It is used to ask questions.
Example- what, who, which, whose, etc.

Possessive Pronoun- It refers to possession or sense of belonging.
Example- mine, ours, yours, his, hers, theirs.

Reflexive Pronoun- A pronoun is reflexive if the action of the subject reflects upon the doer. These are formed by the addition of –self or –selves.
Examples- myself, ourselves, himself, etc.
1. He blamed himself for the accident.
2. The dog hurt itself.

Emphatic Pronoun- Pronouns that are used to emphasis are called emphatic pronouns. Reflexive and emphatic pronouns look similar but they are different in function.
Examples- 1. She herself washed the clothes.

A pronoun is reflexive if the action of the subject reflects upon the doer. Emphatic pronouns are used to emphasis the action of the subject.
