Beehive Chapter 1
SUMMARY
• Tommy finds a real book from an attic that has been printed on paper.
• According to Margie’s grandfather, all books were printed on paper.
• They found the old book crinkled with yellow pages and it seemed funny to them to find all the
letters at the same place as when read the first time.
• Tommy thinks it was a waste to have a book printed on paper. Once read, the book is left
ignored or just thrown away.
• Tommy thinks TV screens are better as they have a million books and it is better for more stuff
and would never be thrown away.
• Margie hates school. Now even more as she has not been performing well in her geography
test.
• Margie has problems about learning her geography lessons from her mechanical teacher so
her mother calls the county inspector to rebuild her lessons.
• The county inspector says that Margie’s progress is satisfactory. He says it was not her fault
that she scored very less in geography. The geography sector was a little above her level. He
adjusted it to a 10 year old level.
• Margie is surprised to know that back in the older days a ‘man’ would be the teacher. He would
teach the children different things, ask questions and give the homework too.
• Tommy says that teachers didn’t live in the house and the kids went to a special building to
learn and all the children of the same group were given the same knowledge and taught the
same things.
• Margie thinks about the time when teachers were people. She thinks about how much fun it
would be for all the children in the neighbourhood to go to same place together everyday and
learn the same things and help each other in homework.
Ans: Margie found it strange that the words printed on a book stood still instead of moving the way they
did on screen. She also found it odd that the words on the page always remained the same as the first
time they were read. Besides the idea that someone would write a book about schools was itself strange
for Margie.
Ans: Margie’s school was in her home itself right next to her bedroom. No, she did not have any
classmates.
Page 1 of 3
7. What subjects did Margie and Tommy learn?
Ans: Tommy is comparing the television screen to the real books in earlier times in which words printed
on paper. He thought after reading such books one would have to throw them away. However he would
never have to throw away his textbooks.
“Sure they had a teacher, but it wasn’t a regular teacher. It was a man.”
Ans: They refer to the students who studied in the old kind of schools centuries before the time the story
is set in.
Ans: Here ‘regular’ refers to the mechanical teachers that Tommy and Margie had.
Ans: The mechanical teacher is contrasted with the teacher of the earlier times who was a human being.
Ans: Margie and Tommy had mechanical teachers. They were large and black and ugly. They had large
black screens on which all the lessons were shown and Questions were asked.
Ans: Margie had been given many tests in geography by the mechanical teacher, but there was no
improvement in her performance. It only kept getting worse. It is for this reason that Margie’s mother
sent for the county Inspector to find out why this was happening.
Ans: He slowed down the mechanical teacher’s speed upto average 10 year old level. The mechanical
teacher’s speed was controlled.
(iv)Why was Margie doing badly in Geography? What did the County Inspector do to help her?
Ans: Because mechanical teacher was very fast in displaying the questionnaire. The county inspector
adjusted its speed upto an average ten year level. Its speed was controlled. He assured Margie’s mother
that Margie’s progress was satisfactory.
Page 2 of 3
(v)What had once happened to Tommy’s teacher?
Ans: Tommy’s teacher was taken away for nearly a month because the History sector had blanked out
completely. Tommy relaxed and enjoyed while it was taken away.
(vi)Did Margie have regular days and hours for school? If so, why?
Ans: Yes Margie had regular days and hours at school. Her mother said little girls learned better if they
learned at regular hours.
Ans: Tommy said old kind of school as a special building where all kids studied together. There were
hundreds of students studying and playing together in an open yard.
Answer each of these questions in two or three paragraphs (100- 150 words)
(i) What are the main features of the mechanical teachers and the schoolrooms that Margie and
Tommy have in the story?
Ans: Margie and Tommy had mechanical teachers. They had large black screens on which all the
lessons were shown and questions were asked. They had a slot in which students had to put their
homework and test papers. They had to write their answers in punch code and the mechanical teacher
calculated the marks immediately. Their schools were in their rooms itself. Margie’s school was right
next to her bedroom. The mechanical teacher always turned on at the same time every day except
Saturdays and Sundays because her mother said that little girls learned better when they learned at
regular hours.

character traits. The important message that the poet wants to give is that the choice that we make has an
impact on our future and if we make a wrong choice, we regret it but cannot go back on it.
So, we must be wise while making choices.

Simile – A simile refers to different types of direct comparisons which are made in literary texts. It
puts forward the difference between two things that have no similarity with each other. Words like
“like” or “as” are used to draw comparisons.
Example: During the house fire, my Dad was as brave as a lion.

Poetic Devices in The Road Not Taken Personification: Robert Frost personified the road in the third line of the second
stanza. Here, it is stated “Because it was grassy and wanted wear” as if the road

is human and that it wants to wear and tear.
Metaphor: There are many metaphors in the poem, like road, fork in the road and yellow
Alliteration: Repetition of 'f' sound in 'first' and 'for‘ in 3rd stanza.
woods. The road in the poem is the metaphor for life, while the fork on the road symbolically
represents the choices we make to determine the course of our lives. Similarly, yellow woods
are the metaphor of making decisions during the hard times of a person’s life. These
metaphors used in this poem emphasize the importance of the different decisions we make in
different situations and their impacts on our lives.
Imagery: Imagery is used to make the readers feel things through their five senses. The poet
has used images of the sense of sights, such as leaves and yellowwoods. These images help
readers actually to perceive things they are reading. The image of the road helps readers to
visualize the road providing a navigation route to the travel.
Simile: A simile is a device used to compare things with familiar things to let the readers
know it easily. There is one simile used in the second stanza as “as just as fair”. It shows how
the poet has linked the road less taken to the easy way through life.
Recapitulation

1. Where does the traveler find himself? What problem does he face? Have you ever had to make a difficult choice ( or do you think you will have difficult choices
to make)? How will you make the choice ( for what reasons)?
2. Discuss what these phrases mean to you.
i. a yellow wood,
ii. it was grassy and wanted wear
iii. the passing there
iv. leaves no steps had trodden black
v. how way leads on to way

A polynomial is an expression consisting of variables and coefficients,
that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication,
and non-negative integer exponentiation of variables.
Notation
The polynomial function is denoted by P(x) where x
represents the variable. For example, P(x) = x2-5x+11.If the
variable is denoted by a, then the function will be P(a)

Ordered pair:
Whenever we write the co-ordinates of a point, first we
write the x- co-ordinate, and then we write the y-co-
ordinate. Suppose a and b is a pair of two numbers which is
listed in a specific order then the co-ordinates (a, b) are
called the ordered pair.

Solution:
To describe the position of a table lamp placed on the table, let us consider
the table lamp as P and the table as a plane.
Now choose two perpendicular edges of the table as the axes OX and OY.
Measure the perpendicular distance ‘a’ cm of P (lamp) from OY. Measure the
perpendicular distance ‘b’ cm of P (lamp) from OX.
Thus, the position of the table lamp P is described by the ordered pair (a, b).

(i) The coordinates of B are (-5,2).
(ii) The coordinates of C are (5, -5).
(iii) The point E is identified by the coordinates (-3,-5).
(iv) The point G is identified by the coordinates (2,-4).
(v) The abscissa of the point D is 6.
(vi) The ordinate of the point H is -3.
(vii) The coordinates of the point L are (0,5).
(viii) The coordinates of the point M are (-3,0).
Solution:
The point (-2, 4) is having negative abscissa and positive ordinate.
∴ (-2,4) lies in the 2nd quadrant.
The point (3, -1) is having positive abscissa and negative ordinate.
∴ (3, -1) lies in the 4th quadrant.
The point (-1, 0) is having negative abscissa and zero ordinate.
∴ The point (-1, 0) lies on the negative x-axis.
The point (1, 2) is having the abscissa as well as ordinate positive.
∴ Point (1,2) lies in the 1st quadrant.
The point (-3, -5) is having the abscissa as well as ordinate negative.
∴ Point (-3, -5) lies in the 3rd quadrant.
These points are plotted in the Cartesian plane as shown in the
following figure as A(-2, 4); B(3, -1); C(-l, 0); D(l, 2) and E (-3, -5).
