Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
It was the late 1960s. I was in Class 8, and like all boys of my age, I just loved cycling, but
never had a cycle. With the help of my friends, after initial struggles and falls, I learnt how to
ride a bicycle. The main requirement was a still head and balance. The temptation to get a
new bicycle of my own was huge, but as the eldest boy in the house, I knew it was a luxury,
and priorities for elders were much bigger than a bicycle.
I politely and obediently asked my father to get one for me. Being a kind and affectionate
father, he told me it would be a good gift that needed to be earned and motivated me to get
the first rank in Class 9. I started my exam preparations for Class 9 much before I finished
Class 8.
Being weak in maths, I took guidance and coaching from a senior boy. With all preparations,
revisions and hard work, I finally stood first in Class IX.
More than the result, my focus was on the bicycle I would get.
I was in seventh heaven, when my father got me a new green Hercules bicycle, which he
bought when returning from office. I was delighted and asked him how did he know that I
stood first in the class. He said he was not aware, but was very happy with my sincere hard
work, focus and determination, and irrespective of the rank, he decided to get me one.
The new bicycle was my most-valued asset. The next day to school, I went happily riding my
new bicycle.
I used to clean it daily, wipe the dust out meticulously and ensured that the new look was
intact. I used to ask my mother if there was anything to fetch from market, and she used to be
surprised at my frequent asking. As I was the proud owner of a bicycle, it made things a lot
easier for me.
It was great fun riding and riding most part of the days specially during holidays and
vacations. I never knew what fitness was at that point of time. It was just happy riding.
The initial days of cycling, the breath of fresh air, the paddling which helped the knees, legs
and muscles grow strong has contributed immensely to good health and fitness, which helped
me concentrate on studies.
