‘Hunting Snake’ Class 9 Summary – āϏāĻžāϰāϏāĻ‚āĻ•ā§āώ⧇āĻĒ

English Summary:

The poem describes the poet’s experience of watching a black snake as it makes its way across an area of grassland. The poet and her companions were walking under the gentle autumn sky when they saw the great black snake reeling by. The poet looks on, fascinated, as the snake hunts for its food with a flickering tongue and fierce intent, and finally disappears into the grass. After the snake leaves, they take a deep breath and continue their walk.

Answer: Importance of Teaching Values to Children Values form the foundation of a child’s beliefs and societal functioning. Essential virtues like honesty, kindness, humility, and courage must be taught to children to build a respectful and stable society. Unlike animals born with survival instincts, human babies are dependent and possess complex emotional needs. Teaching them values early is crucial, as it helps them control selfish desires and act responsibly within the community.
