Read this excerpt from “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi” by Rudyard Kipling.

Rikki-tikki's eyes grew red again, and he danced up to Karait with the peculiar rocking, swaying motion that he had inherited from his family. It looks very funny, but it is so perfectly balanced a gait that you can fly off from it at any angle you please; and in dealing with snakes this is an advantage. If Rikki-tikki had only known, he was doing a much more dangerous thing than fighting Nag, for Karait is so small, and can turn so quickly, that unless Rikki bit him close to the back of the head, he would get the return-stroke in his eye or lip. But Rikki did not know: his eyes were all red, and he rocked back and forth, looking for a good place to hold. Karait struck out. Rikki jumped sideways and tried to run in, but the wicked little dusty gray head lashed within a fraction of his shoulder, and he had to jump over the body, and the head followed his heels close.

Choose the best question to ask Rikki-tikki about his fight with Karait, as described in the passage.

Did you understand at the time the seriousness of the danger you were facing?
How did you learn to become such a good dancer when you came from such a clumsy family?
Were you scared of being hurt or even killed by the dangerous snake?
What did you learn from this battle that you can use in the future?

Answers

Answer 1

Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is a short story by Rudyard Kipling. The best question to ask Rikki Tikki is, what did you learn from this battle that you can use in the future?

Who is Rikki Tikki?

Rikki Tikki was a mongoose in the story and fought singlehandedly with Karait, a dusty brown snakeling. Rikki was a little mongoose but was a weasel in his head and habits.

His fight with Karait was a lesson for him to learn as Rikki underestimated the small size of the snakeling and thought he could easily overpower him.

Therefore, option d. what did you learn from this battle can be a question that can be asked, Rikki.

Quotation: "What's in a name? That by which we call a rose, by any other word would smell as sweet? (Act 2 Scene 2)

Who said this and why is it important?

Answers

Answer:

Juliet is not allowed to associate with Romeo because he is a Montague. If he had any other name it would be fine. She’s complaining that his name is meaningless. If the rose had any other name it would still be the same. So with Romeo; he would still be the same beautiful young man even if he had a different name. “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet” Juliet knows that the blood feud prevents her from loving a Montague. She ponders it. It’s only your name that’s the enemy. You are what you are, even though you may be a Montague. What’s ‘Montague’? It isn’t hand or foot or arm or face or any other part belonging to a man. Oh I wish you had a different name. What is so special about a name? A rose, even if it were called something else, would smell just as sweet. So Romeo would still have all the perfection that he has, even if he were not called Romeo. Romeo, take off your name and in exchange for that whole name, which is not really a part of what you are, you can have all of me.
