“Now, here, take this ten dollars …” – Who said this? Why did the speaker offer ten dollars? How did the speaker advise the person spoken to? What was the reaction of the person spoken to? Class 12 | English (Thank You Maam) 6 Marks
Ans:
The line mentioned above was said by Mrs Luella Bates Washington Jones.
Mrs Jones offered ten dollars to Roger so that he could buy a pair of blue suede shoes that he longed for.
Mrs Jones advised Roger that he should not adopt unfair means to fulfil his wishes because things earned by illegal means ultimately burn one’s peace and cause suffering.
This generous act on Mrs Jones’ part amazed Roger so much that he could not say anything more than “Thank You’ to the kind-hearted woman. Roger was greatly moved by Mrs Jones’ sympathetic behaviour and action. Though he wanted to convey his feelings of gratitude to Mrs Jones, yet managed to say only “Thank You’ to her.
