  1. 1. APJ Kalam was born in Rameshwaram by culture he was Muslim. Though his father was not well educated this was the big disadvantage still he had great wisdom and true spirit.

  2. APJ Kalam had a very pleasant and selfless feeling and attitude. He was always thankful for what he had rather than cursing the situation.

  3. APJ Kalam went and told the teacher that not to show inequality and communal intolerance in minds of innocent children. He had a courage to tell the teacher this. He told the teacher to tell ssry or quit the school . The courage made him success in his life.

    1. Yes, I feel the same. Where he was really upset for being parted away from his friend and the reaction of his friend was a lasting impression that shows that they were good friends and had a friendly nature.

  6. The part that expresses abstract things and ideas according to me is- he possessed innate wisdom and a true spirit of generosity.

  7. The part that shows change in the attitude of others is maybe the last part where it is said that what Laxmana Shashtri conveyed reformed the young teacher. So maybe her attitude changed.

  8. 1. When Lakshamana Shastry summoned the teacher and teacher realized his mistake.

    2. Ramanadhas expression on making kalamji sit somewhere else.

    3. Kalamjis statement on this father, stating he possessed great innate wisdom and a true generosity of spirit.

    4. One should learn from others life, treat everyone as same, one should work hard to achieve their goals.
