her mother and brother.

mother.She is also superstitious because she believed
the story behind the crystal send by her brother.

Her love towards her brother is touching. She gave

the narrator a shilling to buy flowers to place them on
her brother's grave. A shilling is a lot of money for a
poor girl like her. To get that, she has to work for
many days The flowers represent love, sacrifice and
the strong bond of relationship between the sister

tears to the eyes of Mr. Gupta and the readers too are

I am Juano from Star TV, standing at Kadavu in
Namuana with cameraman, Ajith Sam. Let me
familiarize you with the area. Namuana, as you can
see, is a beautiful, quiet village with rocky cliffs on
the beach. You can climb a rocky tract, enjoy
watching the turtles, have great meals and feel very
safe. Many tourists have now gathered here. They are
all getting ready for the turtle calling, which is a
famous ritual here. Here the women chant a special
tune to call turtles.

There is a story connected to this legend. Once, the

beautiful Princess Tinaicoboga and her daughter
were seized by a group of fishermen, as they were
wading in the water. The women cried, but the
warriors only laughed at the women's tears and pleas.
The people here say that the gods sent a mighty storm
and tossed the canoe. The fishermen saw the women
turning into two giant sea turtles.

The turtles slipped into the water and the sea grew
calm. The Fijians still believe that forever afterward,
Tinaicoboga and Raudalice lived in the waters of that
bay. You can see the women of the Namuana village,
dressed in mourning clothes and carrying sacred
clubs as they walk to the shore. See, they are chanting
to their beloved turtles. Let's see what happens. Oh,
wonderful. As the women chant, the giant turtles rise
to the surface of the bright blue waters of this
beautiful bay beneath the cliffs of Kadavu. Don't you
feel excied to go near and see the turtles come up? It's
true, you will see.

The young seagull had no confidence to face the first

real challenge of his life. Flying was natural for a bird
but he was afraid.
He thought: "My wings can never carry my body. I'll
fall into the sea and down to death".

But the mother's trick forced him to jump off the cliff.
His heart stopped. But somehow his wings got spread
out and he knew he was not falling." How is this that

21. Narration- Gupta's experience:

Dear friends,
Last week I was in London, where I had a touching
experience. One day I met a young a teenage English
girl. She looked poor and lonely.  Her name was Alice
Margaret Clifford. They called her Maggie.
Her brother was a soldier in India but had no news of
him for a long time. Her mother wished to see me.
She had a small job, which she didn't like. She liked a
job that used her brain. ..........(continue in First Person

22. Deeds Speak Louder....

 - The poem, 'Death the Leveller' reminds us about the
futility of earthly glories. Whoever we are, we will
face death. Death is invincible. The kings, beggars,
workers, poor and the rich_ all will taste death and
end up as dust. If we do good deeds during our life
time, our actions will bloom and smell sweet after are
dead. So we should go on doing good. Today people
speak and boast too much but do little. What makes
one great or a good human is not just words; but his
actions. Gandhiji's words, 'Do or Die' during feedom
struggle inspired the whole of India.

 A J Cronin : Hello, Hassan it's me,  Dr.Cronin.

Hassan: Hello Sir! It's so nice to hear from you again.

Is there anything urgent?

Cronin: No, Hasan nothing urgent. I just wanted to

talk with you for sometime, that's all.

Hasan: Yes, Sir. I just thought about you. But was busy
in my works, now I am free let's talk.

Cronin: Yeah, I know I have never seen such a diligent

person ever in my life. I was thinking about our
pathetic condition on Ranagangi and wanted to thank
you, for all your great help. Without you it would
have been impossible for me to overcome such a
terrifying situation.

Hasan: Oh Sir! there is no need for thanking me. It's

my job to help people on the deck. I just did my job..

Cronin: I knew that you will say this.  You ought to

have cared for ur health a little bit, while doing all
those jobs. Anyway, I am going to get you a salary
hike.

Hasan: I am not afraid of my life, sir. I have lived my

whole life in the ocean to help others and that's the

in making money.

Cronin: Oh man! I can't understand you Hasan! How

can someone be this good! Anyway, nice  talking to
you. Bye.

Hasan:  Bye sir, nice talking to you too!

24.Character Sketch_
Hasan was the Serang:

 Hasan was the serang(an Asian head of lascar crew)

of the ship Ranaganji which was sailing from
Liverpool to India. He was a squat, very ugly native
seaman, with short legs and large disproportionate
head.
He was a Muslim by Religion. He was born in Punjab
from where his family moved to south.
He liked a seafaring life and spent forty years in
various ships. It was his fifteenth year in Ranaganji.
The captain of the ship Mr. Hamble gave just Hasan
as the assistant when the young and inexperienced
doctor reported an outbreak of smallpox on board.
The captain was confident of Hasan. He nursed the
patients with dedication and was unmindful of the
danger to himself. It was his calm and unperturbed
nature that gave the doctor fresh heart. When a
patient died he would recite words from Ramayana,
sewed their shrouds and would give them a watery
burial.

Downloaded from www.hssreporter.com

On shore he had no home, no family or friends. All
his possessions contained in his chest might worth a
few rupees.
He had no fondness for speech. He was unmistakably
sincere, completely detached from the usual hope of
reward. Money had no interest in him. He had
courage, self-control and faith.

25. In the poem (Sonnet), 'Sleep', William Wordsworth

highlights the importance of sleep. Sleep is the
mother of fresh thoughts and joyful health. The poet
was lying down, unable to sleep, for three nights. He
tried to get sleep by thinking about some of the
pleasant sights of nature such as the flock of sheep
that passed leisurely, he listened to the sound of rain,
the murmer of bees, the fall of rivers, winds, seas and
the white clouds in the pure sky. In the morning, the
song of small birds and the cry of the cuckoo
welcomed him to a new day. Still he failed to win
sleep. Hence, he prays to sleep not to make him tired
and weak any more. He pleads sleep to bless him to
enjoy the day.

26. Dr. Kalam's call to be Unique:

 [Main Points:  
 . We are created not to be the same
 . The world is full of diversity- it is true of man too.
 . Every person is different in abilities, tastes, talents
etc.
 . We have to fulfil different missions and play
different roles in the world.

Downloaded from www.hssreporter.com

 . No two person in alike. So no meaning in trying to
be alike. It is impossible.
 . We should know our powers and more forward in a
path of our own.
 . Others - especially parents and teachers might ask
us to be like someone else, but we should never obey.
 
27. Hasan's Speech:
Dear Director, Dr. Cronin, respected officers and my
colleagues,

To be honest, I'm not delighted to be honoured like

this. Because I don't think I did anything great. Was'nt
it my duty to support Dr. Cronin or serve the
suffering? God has given me this life to love and serve
others. So when I get a chane, I should be able to do
my duty.

I'm a Muslim. But I believe all of us are the children

of God. So I recited Ramayana for the dead. I was not
afraid of disease or death because I had full faith in
God. Even I get infected, I will consider it as the will
of God.

I don't like any kind of honour for what I did.

But I value your love and regards for me.
I will use this opportunity to serve more and serve
better.

Before I conclude, let me thank Dr. Cronin and the
Director for the promotion. I will continue to serve
them.
May Allah bless all of you . Thank you very much...!

can enjoy together. It was a sunny day when we
started from our home town but as we moved
towards we felt very pleasant and cool. On our way,
we enjoyed the Flora and Fauna, valleys, hills and
waterfalls.
The best thing about is the Tea Gardens everywhere.
We really loved walking along the Tea Gardens and
took a lot of photos there.The waterfalls in are
endless and we enjoyed the scenery over there. One
of the adventurous experience in is the Eravikulam
National Park.  In this National Park, we saw an
animal that is about to extinct – Nilgiri Tahr.  The Eco
Point was a thrilling Experience where we had fun
shouting our names loudly and hearing it back the
same way. We also went to the Blossom International
Park, which is a Garden with admirable flowers and
mind blowing surroundings.
Our Summer Vacation to is an unforgettable
experience in our Life. The natural scenery,
waterfalls, rivers and much more that we found in
kept us so attached with the place that we wished not
to leave at the last day.
