READING WITH INSIGHT

1You will probably agree that this story does not have breathless adventure and exciting action. Then what in your opinion makes it interesting?Show solution
The story is interesting because of its warm humour, simple charm, and the characters like Mourad and Uncle Khosrove. The boys’ love for horses, Mourad’s crazy yet lovable nature, and the contrast between the family’s strict honesty and the theft of the horse create curiosity. The ending is also satisfying because it shows that the boys finally act according to their family’s value of honesty.

2Did the boys return the horse because they were conscience-stricken or because they were afraid?Show solution
The boys kept the horse for some time, but in the end they returned it because they belonged to the Garoghlanian family, which was famous for its honesty. Mourad says, “Are you inviting a member of the Garoghlanian family to steal? The horse must go back to its true owner.” This shows they returned it because they felt it would be wrong to keep it, not because they were afraid.
