1.ANS: When the swallow passed at the Prince's feet, the large statue made an odd sound.

It
was the sound of the lead heart of the statue shattering. The heart is believed to have been so
cold that it split in two. The severe frost was also to blame for the breaking of the statue.The
next day, the Mayor of the city and his councillors were walking around the area where the
Happy Prince monument had been constructed, and as he crossed the statue and looked up at
it, he said that it appeared untidy. The councillors usually agreed with the Mayor, thus they
said that the monument was disorderly. After inspecting the statue, the Mayor stated that the
ruby in the sword's grip was missing, as were the sapphires from the statue's eyes and the
coating of gold from its torso.The Mayor said it looked like a beggar statue, and the town
councillors agreed. The Mayor spotted a dead bird near the statue's feet. So he found the
statue no longer beautiful and ordered his men to melt the statue.

I do not agree with the art professor, he must try and make the statue look beautiful. Beauty
lies everywhere, it's our duty to understand it. The happy prince lost his amazing appearance
as he was trying to help the poor and needy, which made him even more beautiful from
inside. Statue is not only built for decorating the place, it is built as the happy prince’s
nemesis.Also he was a role model for people who were trying to be happy. He used to put a
smile on people's faces. So the professor must try and renew the statue rather than melting it.

3.ANS:Everything, according to Shakespeare, evolves throughout time. Even the most

beautiful objects fade and lose their allure with time. He claims that all beautiful objects
(every fair) would ultimately become less attractive (decline) in comparison to their earlier
degree of beauty (from fair). This deterioration occurs by accident or as a result of nature's
law (nature's shifting course), which remains unaltered (untrimmed). The term "untrimmed"
can also refer to untrimmed sails on a ship. It says that nature is a ship with sails that aren't
changed to the wind's direction for a better path.

Eternal summer here refers to the beauty of the poet’s friend.Every beautiful natural item in
our mortal world is subject to deterioration or alteration, which is unavoidable. But the poet's
friend's beauty endures. Death's icy, harsh hand cannot steal his beauty and pull him down to
the dark, dead realm. 'Eternal summer shall never fade,' says the poet. He will, in fact, survive
and prosper as a result of Shakespeare's words. The poet's friend's beauty will never fade
because he will keep his friend's beauty in the eternal lines of his poem, and this is the
conclusion that the poet reaches at the end of the poem. His friend’s beauty never dies as it
lives in the lines of Shakespeare's poem. He guaranteed it as he knew that his poem would
never die.

2.Nothing alters your perspective on your own life experience like witnessing how other
people live. Not only will you be more grateful for your existence, but you will also develop
a new sense of curiosity and empathy for other cultures and nations. Immerse yourself in the
language, culture, and values of people from other countries—you'll discover that they differ
all over the world, and it will definitely cause you to reconsider your own views.Whether it's
your first time witnessing the canals of Venice or the pyramids of Egypt, travelling teaches
you to appreciate the moment of wonder and make the most of it. Traveling is a visual feast
that forces you to pause and live in the present second, minute, and moment. It's difficult to
worry about your last text message when you're halfway across the world visiting locations
you've never been to and seeing sights you've only heard about. Travel helps us to disconnect,
explore, and discover new aspects of ourselves.We will learn to stop judging people by their
appearances. Travel helps us forget about the past and future and makes us enjoy the
present.So we go in quest of both self and anonymity—and, of course, in finding one, we
discover the other. We are, as Hazlitt puts it, "gentlemen in the parlour" abroad, free of caste,
job, and position; and no one can put a name or tag on us. And it is precisely because we
have been cleared in this way, and have been liberated of inessential labels, that we have been
able to come into contact with more essential elements of ourselves (which may begin to
explain why we may feel most alive when far from home).We stay up late, act on instinct,
and find ourselves as wide open as when we're in love while we're abroad. For the time being,
we don't have a past or a future, and we're all up for grabs and interpretation.
