SLIDE – 1 PARAGRAGH READING
This short paragraph is an abstract from profound writer Ruskin Bond’s short story entitled as
“Adventures in a Banyan Tree” from grade 10th English Textbook.
Though the house and grounds of our home in India were Grandfather's domain, the
magnificent old banyan tree was mine-chiefly because Grandfather, at the age of sixty-five,
could no longer climb it. Grandmother used to tease him about this, and would speak of a
certain countess of Desmond, an English woman who lived to the age of 117, and would have
lived longer if she hadn’t fallen while climbing an apple tree. The spreading branches of the
banyan tree, which curved to the ground and took root again, forming a maze of arches, gave
me endless pleasure. The tree was older than the house, older than Grandfather, as old as the
town of Dehra, nestling in a valley at the foot of the Himalayas.

bolder, and finally became familiar enough to take food from my hands.

• Halfway up the tree I had built a small platform on which I would often spend the
afternoons when it wasn't too hot. I could read there, propping myself up against
the bole of the tree with cushions taken from the drawing room. Treasure Island,
Huckleberry Finn, The Mowgli stories, and the Novels of Edgar Rice Burroughs
and Louisa May Alcott made up my bag of very mixed reading. When I did not
feel like reading, I could look down through the banyan leaves at the world below,
at Grandmother hanging up or taking down the washing, at the cook quarrelling
with a fruit vendor or at Grandfather grumbling at the hardy Indian marigolds
which insisted on springing up all over his very English garden. Usually nothing
very exciting happened while I was in the banyan tree, but on one particular
afternoon I had enough excitement to last me through the summer.

everyone, including Grandfather, indoors. I was feeling drowsy myself and was
wondering if I should go to the pond behind the house for a swim, when I saw a
huge black cobra gliding out of a clump of cactus and making for some cooler part
of the garden. At the same time a mongoose (whom I had often seen) emerged
from the bushes and went straight for the cobra. In a clearing beneath the tree, in
bright sunshine, they came face to face. Cobra knew only too well that the grey
mongoose, three feet long, was a superb fighter, clever and aggressive. But the
cobra was skillful and experienced fighter too. He could move swiftly and strike
with the speed of light, and the sacs behind his long, sharp fangs were full of
deadly venom. It was to be a battle of champions.

  • 5. SLIDE – 1 PARAGRAGH READING This short paragraph is an abstract from profound writer Ruskin Bond’s short story entitled as “Adventures in a Banyan Tree” from grade 10th English Textbook. Though the house and grounds of our home in India were Grandfather's domain, the magnificent old banyan tree was mine-chiefly because Grandfather, at the age of sixty-five, could no longer climb it. Grandmother used to tease him about this, and would speak of a certain countess of Desmond, an English woman who lived to the age of 117, and would have lived longer if she hadn’t fallen while climbing an apple tree. The spreading branches of the banyan tree, which curved to the ground and took root again, forming a maze of arches, gave me endless pleasure. The tree was older than the house, older than Grandfather, as old as the town of Dehra, nestling in a valley at the foot of the Himalayas. 1
