SUMMER ASSIGNMENT (CLASS 8)PART-A READING

THE MISANTHROPE* A misanthrope is someone who dislikes or distrusts other people.

TASK 1. Read the first part of the story. Decide who is the misanthrope, the writer or his fellow passenger. ………………………

PART 1The compartment was empty. I sat down by the window and opened a book. The door slid open and a man with a large suitcase came in. I returned to my reading, as I had no wish to talk. It was bad enough to lose one's privacy. 'You've got my seat.' 'Your seat?' 'Please check.' I'd forgotten where I'd put my ticket. Eventually I found it. 'You should be occupying seat number 34 and this is my seat, number 39.'

I moved to the place opposite. I didn't want to leave the window because I like to look out at the countryside. 'Your luggage.' 'My luggage?'He pointed to the luggage rack. 'Ah, you mean my coat.' 'That is luggage, according to the regulations, since it's occupying space intended for luggage.' I removed my coat. He put his suitcase in its place with some effort, lecturing me meanwhile about that particular space being reserved for the exclusive use of the passenger in seat number 39.

TASK 2. Which statements do you think the writer and the fellow passenger would agree with?

…………….. 1 Rules and regulations are always a nuisance.…………….. 2 It is important to obey rules at all times.…………….. 3 There are circumstances when rules can be broken.…………….. 4 Rules and regulations are to help people.…………….. 5 Rules and regulations are to control irresponsible people.Now read the second part of the story and check.

PART 2 The train moved off somewhat abruptly. I was looking out of the window. 'You've taken seat number 38.' I looked at the seat number attached to the headrest behind me and found that that was indeed the case. 'Seat number 34 is over there.'He pointed to a seat by the door. 'Does it matter? The compartment's almost empty.' 'It's the principle that matters.' I had a choice: I could either start an argument with this maniac or give in. He would be pleased whichever I did, though for different reasons. I therefore decided to leave the compartment. I got up, and nearly lost my balance. The train had accelerated suddenly, and the carriage jerked. The suitcase above his head shifted almost to the edge of the rack. I realized I should await further developments.

I moved to seat number 34 without a word. It was less convenient for looking at the countryside, certainly, but it gave me a better - that is, a diagonal -view of my fellow passenger's suitcase. The train slowed down and the suitcase retreated. I began to wonder if my calculations were correct: one had to take slowing down into account. Should I leave after all? 'As I was saying, one has to follow the rules,' he reproved me. That decided me, and I stayed put. After all, the train hadn't reached full speed yet, and one could always hope. I closed my eyes. Dozing is a third pleasure to be had on train journeys, after reading and looking out of the window. But I wasn't dozing. I was watching the luggage rack from under half-closed lids without attracting his attention, something I could not have done if I were either reading or looking out of the window.

TASK 3. Answer the questions.1. What 'principle' is the man talking about?………………………………………………………………………………………………..2 Why do you think he would be 'pleased' if the writer either started an argument or left the compartment? …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………3 What do you think his 'calculations' are about?……………………………………………………………………………………………………………….4 What does he 'hope' will happen?……………………………………………………………………………………………………………….Now read the third part of the story.'

PART 3 My calculations were proving correct. Slowly but surely the suitcase was moving towards the edge again. An intense understanding had sprung up between me and its centre of gravity. The moment was approaching. And yet I decided to give him a chance. I was not moved by any humanitarian reasons, still less by the love of an individual. It was mere curiosity. 'It seems you like to obey rules. Could I ask you why?' He grew animated. It was obviously his favourite subject. 'Rules are necessary for keeping order. Without them we'd be in a mess.' 'In that case, let me make a suggestion: let's swap tickets. Then I can take your place and you can take mine. That way we won't break the rules, as there are no names on the tickets. What do you say?'He was taken aback, and remained silent for a while. 'But why?''Because I like to sit by the window. How about you?'I was waiting. If he admitted to liking it too, he would be saved. 'But number 39 belongs to me.'

'I understand. It would mean juggling with the rules. They can't be followed to the letter, by the nature of things, but that doesn't mean one should juggle with them. Is that how you see it?' 'Well, yes . . .' 'That means you identify rules with predestination.' 'With what?' 'With predestination, with Providence. Rules eliminate a free flow of events, or chance happenings, or chaos, and are thus a manifestation of destiny, the voice of Providence.' 'I don't quite follow . . .' 'I'm saying the same as you, only using different words. You say "order", I say "predestination"; you say "mess", I say "chaos". But it comes to the same thing. To you, rules have something divine about them. Now I see why you find them sacrosanct.' 'Rules are rules, and that's the end of it.' 'Very well,' I said, and closed my eyes to indicate that there was nothing more to be said. And so it proved.

TASK 4. Which of these statements best describes how the writer feels about the other passenger at this point in the story? …… (0.5 pt)

a) He is amused by the situation.b) He is irritated and just wants to enjoy the journey.c) The situation interests him and he wants to see what will happen.d) He is angry and he wants the man to suffer.

Which statement above describes how he felt at the beginning of the story? …… (0.5pt)

PART –B MOVIE TIME

WATCH THE MOVIE “DR. DOLITTLE”

Starring: Eddie Murphy

Plot: John Doolittle is a successful doctor at work. One of his associates wants to sell their small hospital to a rich company. Without his consent they wouldn’t buy it. Although he isn’t against the sale, he doesn’t care for money so much. He seems to be an ideal doctor who is merciful to living things. At home he has a happy family. He has two daughters who are as weird as he is.The younger one is fond of animals and she doesn’t communicate with her peers. One day Dr. Doolittle runs his car into a dog and then suddenly he begins to understand animal talk. At first he can’t believe it, but when he is driving to the family camp, he realizes that he can communicate with his daughter’s pet (guinea rat) and he panics. In fact he used to talk to animals when he was a child and thinks it was weird. When animals know he is a doctor and can communicate with them, they ask for his help in many cases. Because he is a doctor, he can’t ignore them and tries to treat them. Among the animals he treats, there are birds, an owl, a horse, pigeons, dogs and even a rat. He also takes a tiger away from a zoo and operates on him in his clinic.People around him, even his wife, think he is weird and lunatic. So he is put in a mental hospital, which is managed by a doctor who studied together with Dr. Dolittle in the Medical School and was jealous of his success. He manages to get himself to be freed. But finally people understand that he is, in fact, gifted. Review: This is a comedy that you can watch with very close friends and you will not be bored. Moreover, you will definitely have fun if you understand the language. However, if you always look for reality in a movie, you may consider this one silly. There is a message in the film too: “Everyone has a weird side that they want to hide from people. If people know it, they will either laugh or degrade him/her. This may sometimes cause him/her to loose their social status. Yet sometimes this weirdness may, in fact, be giftedness. ”

Question # 04: Read this Character List and write them down in your own words.

Mr. UttersonThe narrator of the book, Utterson is a middle-aged lawyer, and a man in which all the characters confide throughout the novel. As an old friend of Jekyll, he recognizes the changes and strange occurrences of Jekyll and Hyde, and resolves to further investigate the relationship between the two men. He is perhaps the most circumspect, respected, and rational character in the book, and it is therefore significant that we view Hyde's crimes and Jekyll's hypocrisy through his observant, but generally sympathetic perspective.

Richard EnfieldMr. Utterson's cousin, a younger man who is assumed to be slightly more wild than his respectable and sedate relative. While initially it is assumed that Enfield will play a large role in

this novel as it is he who is witnesses Hyde's initial crime, Enfield only appears in two scenes. In both, he walks past Hyde's mysterious door with Mr. Utterson.

Dr. LanyonA former friend and colleague of Dr. Jekyll. Ten years before the events in the novel, he suspended his friendship with Dr. Jekyll because of a disagreement over scientific endeavors. Lanyon is highly respected, rational, and values truth and goodness above all else.

Dr. Henry JekyllA prominent middle-aged doctor described as both tall and handsome. He is also extremely wealthy with a fortune well over two million dollars. All that know him describe him as respected and proper. However, as the novel progresses, we subtly witness his hypocritical behavior, which Stevenson claimed was Jekyll's fatal flaw. The doctor's belief that within each human being there exist forces of good and evil leads to his experiments that try to separate the two. Although presented as a scientific experiment, Jekyll undertook this task to allow himself a release from the respectable guise of Dr. Jekyll. In the book, Jekyll's voice is only heard in the concluding chapter, only after being described through the lens of Utterson, Lanyon, Poole, and Enfield.

Edward HydeA small, deformed, disgusting man somewhat younger than Dr. Jekyll who is apparently devoid of a profession. Lanyon, Utterson and Enfield all describe witnessing something indefinably evil and horrific in Edward Hyde's face. He is often compared to animals, implying that he is not a fully evolved human being. Despite these descriptions, Hyde is generally civilized in his interactions with others, most notably Utterson and Lanyon. Dr. Jekyll describes Hyde as "pure evil," who menaces society at night, trampling a girl in the street and murdering Sir Danvers Carew. We learn at the end of the story that Edward Hyde and Dr. Henry Jekyll are in fact the same person.

Sir Danvers CarewA highly respected and prominent member of English society who Edward Hyde brutally murders. Carew is described as "silver haired" and "gentle."

Mr. GuestMr. Utterson's law office clerk who discovers the handwriting similarity between notes from Mr. Hyde and Dr. Jekyll.

Richard PooleDr. Jekyll's faithful butler. When fearful for his master's life, Poole seeks out Mr. Utterson's assistance. The two men discover Edward Hyde dead in Dr. Jekyll's cabinet and then, from a letter written by Dr. Jekyll's hand, learn of the doctor's fantastic experiments.
