Philoid · Accepted Answer

(a) Yes, the boy is intelligent. The first evidence that proves this is that he gets monthly scholarship every month. He knows the difference between right and wrong. With his smartness and presence of mind, he argues his case before God like a lawyer.

(b) Yes, his outlook on the jalebis episode changed after class VIII. He later realised that nothing comes without a price. We have to work hard and stay true in all times. If God were to grant all one’s wishes for the asking, man would not learn any skill.

(c) “The coins” are made to talk because they reflect the conflict going on in his own mind.
