Read the story and answer the following questions in pairs/groups.

 

The bell rings for the start of the tiffin period, and the students of Kajla High School are rushing out of their classes to play. In the school playground, a group of boys starts to play cricket. In this group, there is a boy named Zahin While playing he notices a boy sitting under the Banyan tree at the corner of the playground. But he doesn’t think much of it. A well-struck ball runs toward the Banyan tree and stops just a few feet short of it. Zahin runs to collect the ball.

 

As he gets near the tree, he recognises the boy sitting under the tree as his classmateJamal. “Hey, Jamal!” he says while collecting the ball and running back to rejoin the game. As they resume the play, Zahin recalls seeing Jamal sitting under the tree quite a few times observing them play. They wrap up the play as the bell rings for the end of the tiffin period. After the class, Zahin gathers other members of the group. “Have you noticed Jamal sitting under the tree watching us play?” says Zahin. “Yeah. What of it?” says one. “He often does,” says another “It seems he is interested in joining us to play,” says Zahin. “But he can’t… and we know the reason, right,” one mumble. “I have an idea,” says Zahin. Zahin shares his idea with the group. The next day, Jamal is sitting under the tree as usual, but Zahin’s group is nowhere to be seen. Feeling a little disheartened Jamal stands up leaning against the tree. He starts to search for something besides the tree. “Ah, there you are,” Jamal says to himself holding two crutches in his hands. As he starts to move toward class, he hears, “Hey, Jamal!” Jamal turns and sees Zahin with the group. “We are playing chess today. Come join us”. A bright smile forms on Jamal’s face as he joins the group to play. The next day, the group requests Jamal to do the scoring for them while playing cricket. Jamal happily accepts that. Jamal is so efficient in counting that the everyday score confusion is gone. Together with Jamal, the group enjoys both cricket and chess.
