    Question 1.

    What is Johnsy’s illness? What can cure her, the medicine or the willingness to live?

    Answer:

    Johnsy, a young artist, was ill. She was suffering from pneumonia. But later on she suffered
    from a misconception that she would die as soon as the last leaf on the creeper would fall
    down. The medicine had no effect on her. Her willingness to live could cure her.

    Question 2.

    Do you think the feeling of depression Johnsy has is common among teenagers?

    Answer:

    Life has two aspects i.e. positive and negative. It depends upon us how we take it.
    Nowadays it is very common that teenagers are getting depressed because of cut-throat
    competition. On the other hand, a majority of teenagers who take life positively and faces
    difficulties boldly never lose hope and proceed further.

    Question 3.

    Behrman has a dream. What is it? Does it come true?

    Answer:

    Behrman had a dream to paint a masterpiece in his life. He kept waiting for the opportunity
    to give it a practical shape. Yes, he could materialize his dream when he painted the last
    leaf of the ivy creeper.

    Question 4.

    What is Behrman’s masterpiece? What makes Sue say so?

    Answer:
    Behrman was a 60-year old artist who had a dream to paint a masterpiece. His painting of
    an ivy leaf was his masterpiece which saved the life of Johnsy. It was such a painting that it
    was not easy to make out whether the leaf was real or it was just a painting. When Behrman
    died painting this life-saving painting, Sue called it a master piece.

    Long question answers

    Question 1.

    Have you ever felt depressed and dejected? How did you overcome such feelings? Share
    your experience with your classmates.

    Answer:

    Our life is full of troubles. To move ahead we have to face the troubles boldly. Sometimes
    because of troublesome conditions we get depressed and dejected. We lose interest in the
    world around us. Pessimism surrounds us. In this state of mind, we should try to think
    positively and get rid of this condition. Our faithful friends can also be helpful in this regard.
    I felt depressed and dejected when I could not score good marks in the final examination of
    Class VI. I was a meritorious student. I was sure that I would get the highest marks in the
    class. Unfortunately, a month before the final exam, I suffered from severe typhoid. It
    continued for 15 days. I became weak and could not prepare properly for the exam. As a
    result, I got the lowest marks in the class. But my parents and teachers consoled me by
    telling that it happens with everyone. They said me to be confident and be prepared to do
    best in the next class.
