c2. sit in pairs. answer each of the following questions
in a sentence:

1. Rajiv was thrilled because his father was going to take

him out on a visit to the lighthouse. What incidents
in your life made you thrilled? Narrate them.

2. Do you want to invent something new? What kind of
invention do you want to make?

3. Lighthouse is not an invention made by any single

person. In the same way, there are many other such
inventions which were made with the collective effort

of many persons. Make a list of them and discuss in
the class.

let's listen :

1. close your eyes and listen to your teacher:

Rajiv and his father Madhav visited a lighthouse. The
lighthouse was built on the seashore. When they went there,
Rajiv heard the whistling of whales, sea gulls crying, the wind

roaring, birds chirping, slashing waves and water gushing
when a ship sailed and many more sounds.

Now, do what your teacher says.

• Relax your feet and the entire body.

• Be as quiet as you can and listen to the sounds around
you for two minutes.

• Open your eyes. Tell your partner softly what you

heard. Ask him/her, ‘What did you hear?’
