Question 101Asked in CTET January 2024 Paper 1, 21 Jan 2024

A school-boy :

Read the extract given below and answer the questions that follow. All the world is a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms; Then the whining school-boy, with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwilling to school. And then the lover, Sighing like a furnace, with a woeful ballad Made to his mistress’ eyebrow. Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths, and bearded like a pard, Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble-reputation Even in the cannon’s mouth. A school-boy :
  1. Ais reluctant to go to school.
  2. Blooks beautiful in the morning.
  3. Clikes his teachers.
  4. Dboth (1) and (2)
