Answer» Context : The writer was travelling in a train. When all the passengers had gone, a mosquito began to disturb him again and again. The writer tried his best to stop him but he did not obey him and continued disturbing him. He warned him to kill him and framed many serious charges against him but all in vain. Explanation : In this passage the writer accepts his defeat. He wanted to kill him but his all efforts failed and the mosquito went on enjoying this fight. He played with the writer openly and courageously. It was a show of a fight between a metador and an angry bull. In this fight the writer himself behaved like an angry bull and the mosquito like a skilful metador. It was clear to the writer that the mosquito was enjoying himself by moving round the man who seemed to him so helpless and stupid. Now the writer changed his feelings against the mosquito and began to enter into his spirit. |
