What tells you of Harold\u2019s interest in boxing ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> Harold himself speaks about his interest in boxing and boxers. He tells how one of his friends has a snapshot of Jimmy Wilde. He wants his father to defeat Jimmy Murphy to get a chance with Sid Sampson for the Lonsdale belt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.16. Do you agree with Harold\u2019s parents\u2019 decision of hiding from him the fact that his father was a boxer ? Why\/Why not ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> No, the decision was wrong. There is no shame in being a sportsperson or a boxer. Every physical activity is as dignified as any intellectual activity. Harold\u2019s parents should not have hidden the fact of his father\u2019s profession. There was nothing shameful about it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.17. Harold was a model child but for one thing that marred his \u2018perfe ction\u2019. What was it ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> Harold was a model child, different from ordinary children. He was fully devoted to his books. He was a model of good behaviour. But his \u2018perfection\u2019 was marred by deliberate falsehood on the part of his parents. His parents evaded the truth and lied to him about his father\u2019s profession.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.18. Why did Harold\u2019s parents think it prudent to keep him in dark about his father\u2019s profession ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> Harold\u2019s parents thought that boxing did not enjoy good reputation, and that being a professional boxer was not something to be proud of. They feared their child would feel ashamed of himself if he learnt that his father was a boxer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.19. Name the two persons who were mainly responsible for keeping Harold in dark about his father\u2019s true identity.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> The senior curate of the parish and Mrs Bramble\u2019s brother, Major Percy Stokes, were mainly responsible for convincing Harold\u2019s parents not to disclose the true identity of his father to him as they believed that boxing was not a respectable profession.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.20. Was Mr Bramble ashamed of his profession ? Why did he agree to the suggestion that he should conceal his professional identity from his son ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> Mr Bramble had been proud of being a professional boxer before the birth of Harold. He was the most obliging of men. When he was asked to suppress his profession for the better development of his child, he agreed to the suggestion without demur.<\/p>\n<p><strong>VALUE \u2013 BASED LONG ANSWER QUESTIONS (SOLVED)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer the following questions in 80-100 words each.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.1. One should take pride in one\u2019s profession. Comment upon the<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>statement in the context of the story \u2018Keeping It from Harold\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Or<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Are Mrs and Mr Bramble justified in not taking pride in their profession. Do you agree ? Give reasons for your answer. (CBSE 2014)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> You should really take pride in your profession. Only then can others give you respect and recognition. Those who look down upon their profession remain guilt-ridden and a failure. In the story \u2018Keeping It from Harold\u2019 both Mrs and Mr Bramble are guilty of undermining the profession of boxing. Mr Bramble is a famous boxer, known as \u201cYoung Porky\u2019. Uptil his son\u2019s birth he thinks high of his profession. Then both he and his wife come to believe that their son Harold would feel embarrassed and ashamed of the fact that he was the son of a boxer. They keep Mr Bramble\u2019s profession a secret from Harold. They are pleasantly shocked when Harold feels angry at being deprived of the glory and honour of being a famous boxer\u2019s son. This proves that his parents were not justified in downgrading a good profession. Boxing, though an aggressive and bloody game, is an honourable profession like any other profession.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.2. Harold is considered to be fond of only intellectual activities. He proves to be much maturer than his parents think. How ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> Harold is an intelligent boy who is considered to be a model in studies and behaviour. Everyone at school praises him. He has already won some prizes in academics. He is a bespectacled child. His parents are in a bit of awe of him. His mother, Mrs Bramble, calls him \u2018dearie\u2019 and looks upon him as a child prodigy. His father is equally fond and proud of him. His parents come to believe that he should not know that he is the son of a professional boxer. He can never think that he could be a lover of boxing and boxers. When Harold learns about his being the son of a famous boxer, he feels angry of being deprived of glory and honour. He tells his parents that if the fact was known to his school children they would never have dared to make fun of him by calling \u2018Goggles\u2019. His interest in games, especially boxing, shows that is much maturer than his parents can ever think of.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.3. Jerry Fisher, in his pursuit to unravel the secret that the Brambles had hidden so long from Harold, actually helped the Bramble family. Discuss. (CBSE)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> The Brambles had not told their son Harold that his father was a professional boxer. They were afraid that Harold would feel bad and bitter about the truth. So they told a lie to him that his father was a firm\u2019s touring representative. Mr Bramble wanted to take part for the last time in a boxing match. He went for training with Jerry Fisher. When he learnt that the match would be reported in the Mail with his photograph he got frightened. He thought that their secret would be out. So he withdrew himself from the training. As they needed money, the matter caused both he and his wife a lot of worry and tension. Jerry Fisher, in anger, revealed their secret to their son Harold. When Harold announced his itnerest in boxing and his feelings of pride in being the son of a boxer, Mr and Mrs Bramble were relieved of their burden and guilt. Thus, Jerry Fisher, in revealing the secret, helped them regain normalcy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.4. As Harold, express year feelings in a diary entry in 80-100 words on learning about your father\u2019s profession. (CBSE)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> 10th April, 20\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>10 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>Dear Diary *<\/p>\n<p>I am so happy and excited today! I want to dance like mad. Today Jerry Fisher, who is Dad\u2019 trainer (I learnt only today), revealed that Dad is no other that \u201cYoung Porky\u2019, a famous boxer. I would not believe my ears. Dad and a boxer ? I had been told that he was a touring representative of a firm, My father was ready to sacrifice name and fame and money just for my so-called dignity. I appreciate his feelings. At the same time I feel sad that I have been deprived of the honour and glory of being the son of a great boxer. I have asked Dad to give me his photograph to swank it before my friends ever ready to make fun of me as \u2018Goggles\u2019. I have also asked Dad to fight and beat Murphy. I want him to win the bout at all costs. How I love you, Dad!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.5. As Major Percy, write a letter to your friend expressing your remorse at your failure to keep Mr Bramble away from a devilish game.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> 10 Green House Susse<\/p>\n<p>4th April, 20<\/p>\n<p>Dear John<\/p>\n<p>I wish I were dead this moment. You know, I am deadly against boxing which is a Devil\u2019s game. Boxing is simply inhuman. I believe boxers are fated to go to Hell. I did my best to save Mr Bramble, my sister\u2019s husband, from perdition. I was happy when Mr Bramble came back home deciding not to participate in the bout with Jimmy Murphy. My sister resented his coming home. I tried to persuade her to see reason and forget the money involved. Then Jerry Fisher-Mr Bramble\u2019s trainer-undid all that I had done. He told the secret to Harold, and Harold-God save him-was so exultant on knowing that he was the son of a boxer! How mean on his part. I\u2019ve decided never to step in the house of those Brambles.<\/p>\n<p>Yours sincerely Percy<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.6. \u2018Keeping It from Harold\u2019 underlines the idea that boxing is as dignified as any other activity, physical or mental. What happens when we downplay one activity over the other, especially our own ability ? What should be our attitude ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> Mr Bramble, a famous boxer, hides his profession from his intellectually brilliant son, fearing that he might come to hate him. He decides to stop boxing.<\/p>\n<p>We feel that when we downplay one activity over the other illogically, we are not doing something fair. If we happen to downplay and dislike our own ability, like Mr Bramble, we are likely to fall in our own eyes. We lose our self-confidence and self-pride. Others may or may not despise us but we begin to despise ourselves. The Brambles are surprised when their son says that he would have loved to be known as the son of a famous boxer.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, we need to be proud of our own achievements. We should be proud of whatever profession we are in. We should try to excel in it and feel proud of what we do. Only then will other people love and respect us. We should remember that no activity or profession is undignified or low. It is our thinking that makes something desirable or undesirable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.7. \u201cHe was a professional boxer. That was the trouble.\u201d Discuss.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> There are many people who look down upon boxing. They think that sports like boxing are violent and are hence not meant for gentle folk. In the story, such people are represented by the senior curate of the parish and major Percy Stokes who take upon them the responsibility of guarding the morality of the people. They persuade the Brambles to hide from their son Harold the profession of his father. Mr Bramble, who has been a good boxer and known as Young Porky\u2019, comes to believe them. Being modest, he gives in to their demands. In spite of having pride in his profession, he agrees to hide his true identity. He makes this sacrifice for the sake of his son. He wants his son not to feel ashamed of himself for his being a boxer. It is again for the sake of his son that he decides not to take part in the contest with Jimmy Murphy, though he needs money badly. He fears his son will come to know of his father\u2019s true identity as the event is going to be reported in the Mail.<\/p>\n<p>Little does he know that his son is fond of boxing. He has gathered a lot of information about boxing and boxers. When the truth is out, his son is annoyed at being kept in the dark that he is the son of a professional boxer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question.8. \u201cPa, can\u2019t you give me a picture of yourself boxing ? I could swank like anything. And you don\u2019t know how sick a chap gets of having chaps call him, \u2018Goggles\u2019.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>In the light of the above extract, analyze Harold\u2019s feeling on learning that his father was a professional boxer.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer.<\/strong> Harold overheard his father talking about him. He was curious to know what he was talking about. Jerry Fisher, in order to take revenge on Bill, told Harold that his father was not a commercial traveller but the famous boxer \u2018Young Porky\u2019, and that his father was not going to fight with Murphy because of him. Harold was astonished to learn the fact. He surprised everyone by revealing that he had a bet and if there were no contest, he was going to lose his bet. He said that his friends had the autographs of famous sportspersons. He felt annoyed that he had been kept in the dark about his father being a boxer. Nobody would have laughed at him and called him \u2018Goggles\u2019 if they had known who his father was.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Bramble told Mr Fisher that it would be better for them to go back to the White Hart. After they had left, Harold continued talking about the relative merits of Sid Sampson and the Ginger Nut, the two famous boxers. There was animated expression on his face.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reference to Context Questions (Solved) Read the given extracts and answer the questions that follow : Question.1. \u201cGoodness know I\u2019ve [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_focuskw":"CBSE Class 9 English","_yoast_wpseo_title":"CBSE Class 9 English Important Questions: 'Keeping it from Harold","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"Get Important Questions for CBSE for Class 9 English Keeping it from Harold.
