    LETS GO HOME –KELWIN SIO

    1. Describe the scene of school on Saturday.

    When it was Saturday, the students felt very happy because they were not
    given homework. The dayscholars had breakfast with boarders. The boys
    felt pleasure when they heard the clatter of plates and knives, forks, spoons,
    cups and saucers. They had different types of breakfast on every Saturday.
    The class started late on this day. Miss Moss gave three coloured action
    postcards to the best readers. It was a very exciting period for the boys. At
    last they had English which wound up Saturday morning. On Saturdays,
    they all went to the library also.
    2. In the story, the boy’s name is not mentioned. The boy is simply
    referred to as “he”. Why does the writer do this?
    The narrator does not use the name of the boy in the story because he is not
    telling the particular story of a particular boy and he wants to show the
    importance of the mother in the life of a child. He says that the mother plays
    an important role in the life of a boy or girl. She leads him the right way and
    always looks after him and stands by him at every stage as a protector. The
    narrator says that there is no home without a mother so the boy finds his old
    house charmless without the presence of his mother. The mother is the first
    mentor of an issue. She plays various role in the life of a child. She plays
    with him like a friend and loves the child and always fulfils his
    requirements. The author wants to teach an important lesson to the readers
    on behalf of the story that we must always regard and obey our mother.
    3. Why did the boy not take the bus with the rest of the school boys?
    He did not take the bus with the rest of the boys because he was so happy
    because of the holiday of Sunday the next day and it would be the way of
    great pleasure for him. He was in a hurry to go to home and liked to enjoy
    the beauty of the nature and play together with the plants and flowers on the
    way.

    4. In the story, the boy’s name is not mentioned. The boy is simply
    referred to as “he”. Why does the writer do this? Discuss.

    The narrator does not use the name of the boy in the story because he is not
    telling the particular story of a particular boy and he wants to show the
    importance of the mother in the life of a child. He says that the mother plays
    an important role in the life of a boy or girl. She leads him the right way and
    always looks after him and stands by him at every stage as a protector.

    The narrator says that there is no home without a mother so the boy finds his
    old house charmless without the presence of his mother. The mother is the
    first mentor of an issue. She plays various role in the life of a child. She
    plays with him like a friend and loves the child and always fulfils his
    requirements. The author wants to teach an important lesson to the readers
    on behalf of the story that we must always regard and obey our mother.

    5. What is the most touching aspect of the story and why?

    The most touching aspect of the story is the last scene when the boy
    approaches his home after school but does not find his mother at home. It
    makes to the readers emotional and develops the sense of sorrow and pity for
    the boy who loves his mother very much and is unaware about death in this
    world. The boy is too small to understand secret of death and the rule of
    nature. He is immature and cannot make himself broad minded to bear the
    separation of his mother.

    Here the speaker clears that the relation between mother and child is very
    close and great which cannot be explained in words. The mental condition of
    the boy cannot be explained or understand by others and it makes the readers
    too much sad and insist them to realise the same incident.
