Extra Questions
1. “Actions speaks louder than words”. Comment on this saying on the basis of the story “Three Questions.”
The story gives us the moral lesson . The curious king visits the wise hermit as a commoner to get his answers. The hermit does not speak even a single word, but he satisfies the curiosity of the king through actions. He notices the king’s eagerness in helping the wounded person and his interest in saving his life. The king even forgets his powers and proves himself to be a true human. At last, when he expresses his desire again to know the answers the hermit makes him realise that he has himself got the answers of all the three questions. Thus, the story proves that the actions speaks louder than words.
2. Explain the answers the king got to his three questions.
Now is the right time to do every action. The most important person is with whom we are at the moment. To do good to others is the most important thing to do.
3. Why was the king obsessed with the three questions?
The king felt that by getting an answer to his questions, he would always be successful in life and would be able to discharge his duties, as a king, well.
