Topic :- Sing a song of People Date :- ______________ I.Read the given passage carefully and answer the following questions :-

Life is Like An Echo

A little boy came running excitedly to his mother saying: "Mom, there is a boy

out there in the woods who is mocking me. Everything I say he says after me.

If I say: "Hello," he says: "Hello." When I say "Who are you?" he says: "Who

are you?" "So I got mad and jumped over the fence and went into the woods to

find him. But he wasn't anywhere. So I yelled, "I'll punch you in the nose."

And he said the very same thing, exactly as I had said it." The boy's mother

told him, "That is only an echo answering you Monu. If you had said: 'I love

you,' it would have said the same to you." There is a similar story about a dog

who went into a room full of mirrors. He eventually died of exhaustion trying

to fight his mirrored 'enemies.' If he had only wagged his tail once, he would

have had all of them wagging their tails in friendship.

Life is like an echo or a mirror: we get out of it what we put in. So, always do

good.
