P. 38
Pick out the adjectives in the following story and say what kind of adjective they are:
Once, a severe epidemic broke out in Cuttack. Subhas Chandra Bose
went there with a small team to help the poor and sick people.
Some people praised the work being done by Subhas and his
friends, but many people made fun of them also. Haider was one
person who always ridiculed them. “These people are mad, stupid
and useless. Which person in his senses can appreciate what they
are doing?” he would often say.
Once, some members of Haider’s family fell ill. Haider went out to look for medical help,
but no help was available anywhere. Haider was very sad as he returned home. But, a
great surprise was awaiting him there. Subhas and his friends had already reached there
with a doctor and were looking after the sick people. Haider thanked them greatly. He
was also sorry for having insulted them earlier.
“There is no need to thank us,” said Subhas. “We were doing only our duty.”
Write some pairs of adjectives. In each pair the second adjective should be exactly the
opposite of the previous one.
For example:
happy – sad right – wrong
good – bad hot – cold
