Exercise – 1:
With a shudder he once again turned to the window. The sky was dotted with birds flying in a streamlined ‘V’!
They seemed to be hurrying, every one of them of one mind as if they had an important goal to pursue. It was that
time of the year when the migratory birds were returning to their homes after a five - month warm sojourn. He
remembered his childhood picnic with his parents to Vedanthangal, where he had seen flocks of birds nestled among
the trees. Dad had hired a telescope to give him a closer view of the nest, where he saw tiny little nestlings-five of
them. Dad had then told him that even though these families resided here, they would soon go back to their homes far

in the cold regions of the planet. His father’s words rang clear in his ears “You see Kumar, though they have stayed
here for almost half a year and have enjoyed our climate and the food available, they know that their home is in the
Arctic. And there’s no place like home, is there?”
Kumar gazed at the flock flying home from where they had come. But slowly his vision blurred as tears filled
his eyes. ‘Home is where the heart is’ Kumar thought, watching the birds till they were just specks on the distant
horizon. Kumar left the room with a sure stride and a strong determination writ large on his countenance.
Questions:
a. What was the ‘V’ shaped formation seen by Kumar?
b. What did the flight remind him of?
c. Describe what Kumar had seen amidst the trees while on his picnic.
d. What behavior among the birds taught Kumar of the importance of ‘home’?
e. What do you think Kumar had decided to do? Give a reason for your answer.
