Question 16 Marks
Both wry with the laboured ease of loss. The poet Shirley Toulson is missing her mother. What is the role of the mother in forming the personality of a child?
Answer
A mother's role in shaping the personality of a child is of paramount importance. The child watches his/her mother intently and learns about the world and how to react to it at the initial stages. The mother can play an important role by making the child deal constructively with mistakes, forgive others, handle frustration, show kindness and share love.
When a mother is nurturing and caring the child, it develops a healthy bond with not only the mother but will be willing to form new relationships with others. Children and adults both want a sense of independence and autonomy. It is very important on a mother's part to offer choices to the child. This makes the child feel that he/she is smart enough to make choices.
The mother's thoughts nourish a child's mind and soul as her personal attention nourishes a child's body. She is a child's first teacher. She tries to imbibe such values that may help a child lifelong.

Question 26 Marks
How did Rajendra try to explain the mystery of reality?
Answer
We normally experience reality directly with our senses. But what we see is not the whole truth. That is proved if we take the example of an electron. Fired from a source, it can go in any direction, breaking all laws of physics. This is called lack of determination in quantum theory. The professor, said Rajendra, had made a transition from one world that he knew to another that could have been. The observer can experience one reality, but alternative realities also exist. The professor had also experienced a different world without any physical movement when he became unconscious after being hit by a truck.
