Exercise 5: Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow.

“It’s my turn tomorrow,” mumbled Raghu to himself as he climbed the 5
stairs in his school. He had been dreading this day ever since Mr Tan, the
much feared History teacher, declared his grand class prodigy scheme two
months ago. He explained that he was looking for a smart student who was
able to teach a lesson in an innovative manner.

Mr Tan had announced that each student would be given a week to 10

prepare a lesson for the class. He even invited the boys to chew on his
brains during this process if they wanted to. Saying this, Mr Tan had
grinned while the class gave an involuntary shudder. It would take a very

brave boy to seek out Mr Tan’s assistance outside the classroom.

“At the end of the term, we will have a poll to decide the best teacher of
all. That boy shall be the Class Prodigy. I shall personally recommend the
Golden Star Award for him,” Mr Tan droned in his usual style.

Week after week, Raghu saw the best and the brightest of his 15
classmates being reduced to quivering jellies during their teaching sessions
under Mr Tan’s merciless sarcasm. The week long preparation might have
never been enough for each student found that he could never do it right.

And now it was Raghu’s turn. Worse, he had done virtually nothing to

prepare the chapter on the French Revolution that had come his way. His 20

mind was a complete blank.

He had tried, of course. For a week now, it had become a routine for 25
him to sit with his History textbook open at the page where the chapter on
the French Revolution began. And somehow, he did nothing but stare at
the sketch of Marie Antoinette, Queen of France in the late 18th century
when the Revolution broke out. It showed Marie Antoinette, with her hair
cut in a pageboy style and dressed in an emerald gown, just before she
was executed.

Rahgu felt very close to her for some reason. He felt for her. She was

treated unjustly before her death – exactly how Raghu was feeling right 30

now.

And then there was only one day to his ordeal. Deep down Raghu knew
that even if he had stayed up every night the whole week to study, he
would still be the target of Mr Tan’s snide comments the following day.

That afternoon, the chiming of the school bell did not rouse that familiar
sensation of freedom in Raghu. “If only I could refuse to teach the class,” 35

he wondered as he ambled home. “But how could I possibly do that?” 7
