CBSE Class 7 Answered
Identify the antonyms of the words in bold and the synonyms
of the underlined words from the paragraph.
In the shade of the house, in the
sunshine of the riverbank near the
boats, in the shade of the Sal-wood forest, in the shade of the fig tree is
where Siddhartha grew up, the handsome
son of the Brahman, the young
falcon, together with his friend Govinda, son of a Brahman. The sun tanned his light
shoulders by the banks of the river when bathing, performing the sacred ablutions, the sacred
offerings. In the mango grove, shade poured into his black eyes, when playing
as a boy, when his mother sang, when the sacred offerings were made,
when his father, the scholar, taught him, when the wise men talked.
(From Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse)
