Story Writing using hints
Satavahana University Karimnagar
II Year Sem 4
&
SRR GASC KARIMNAGAR BCA Sem 2
Write stories based the leading lines given below. Give a title to your story.
A man walking - elephant passed by - mahout holding a small rope - tied to elephant's front leg - surprised to see - elephant never tried to break the rope - mahout (trainer) explained - conditioned since a young age.
Story: The Elephant and the Rope
A man was walking on the highway when an adult elephant and his mahout passed by. He noticed that the mahout was holding the elephant by a small rope, the other end of which was tied to the elephant's front leg. He was surprised by the fact that the elephant made no attempt to break the rope and set itself free.
Intrigued by this, the man asked the mahout about the elephant's passive behaviour. The mahout explained that when elephants are very young and much smaller in size, they are controlled using a small-sized rope which is enough to control them at that age. As they grow up, the elephants are conditioned to believe that the rope is strong enough to hold them back, and they cannot break away. They believe that the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.
1. A grocery shop - plenty of mice - the grocer worried - bought a fat cat - mice worried - mice had a meeting - tie a bell - who ties bell (June/July 2022 SU Karimnagar)
Answer:-Mallaiah owned a grocery shop in a village. He has stocked shelves full of goods, as there is a jatara in the village. The infestation of mice caused a lot of damage to the food items in the shop. Mischievous mice scurried around, biting food pockets. Mallaiah was concerned about the mouse problem and wanted to get rid of mice. He then bought a fat cat. When the mice saw the big cat, they were worried and held an urgent meeting in the darkest corner of the shop. They devised a plan. One brave mouse suggested, "Let's tie a bell around the fat cat's neck! That way, we'll always know when he's coming." The idea is good, but who would dare to tie the bell?. No one came forward, and the mice left the shop.
2. Donkey fell into a pit - owner tried hard to pull it out - decided to bury - poured soil - donkey shook off the soil - soil increased level in the pit - donkey got out
Answer:-A washerman named Sathaiah and his trusty donkey, resided in a remote village.One day, the donkey accidentally fell into a pit. The owner heard the loud bray, rushed to the spot. He tried with all his might to pull out, but the pit was too deep, and the donkey was too heavy to lift. He decided to bury the donkey with a heavy heart, as it was getting dark. He poured soil into the pit. The donkey began shaking off the soil from his back and hooves. The amount of soil poured into the pit rose, forming a mound beneath its feet. With a triumphant bray, the donkey came out of the pit. Overwhelmed with joy, the washerman embraced his brave donkey. Washerman realises that sometimes, even in the darkest of moments, there is hope.
3. King Midas - goddess in a dream - whatever he touches must become gold household articles - touched his daughter - finally became gold himself.
Answer:- Once upon a time, there lived a king named Midas. Despite his wealth, King Midas was never satisfied. Greed consumed him, and he longed for more riches than his kingdom could contain.
One night, A goddess appeared to him in a dream. She offered to grant him a wish, any wish his heart desired. Without hesitation, King Midas declared, "I wish that everything I touch turns to gold."The Goddess, with a knowing smile, granted his wish, but warned him to be careful what he wished for.
The next morning, King Midas awoke to find his wish had come true. Excitedly, he reached out and touched a nearby table, which instantly transformed into gleaming gold. Overjoyed, he went through his palace, touching every household article he could find, turning them all into precious metal.
However, King Midas's elation soon turned to horror when he reached out to embrace his beloved daughter. As his golden hand touched her warm flesh, she too turned into a lifeless statue of gold. Guilt-ridden, King Midas realized the folly of his greed.
4. A woodcutter’s axe falls into a river-becomes very unhappy the River-God brings him a golden axe, a silver axe, and a steel axe one after another-the wood-cutter takes his own steel axe-the River-God rewards him with all the three.
Answer:-
In a village, there lived a woodcutter named Rajanna. Every day, Rajanna ventured into the forest to cut trees with his sturdy steel axe. One sunny morning, as Rajanna was cutting a big tree with his axe, a disaster struck. With a loud clang, his axe slipped from his grasp and tumbled into the rushing river below. Heartbroken, he sat by the riverbank, lamenting the loss of his axe. To his surprise, the River Goddess emerged from the waters. With a wave of her hand, the goddess presented the woodcutter with a golden axe. He was surprised to see the golden axe, but declined the gift. The goddess then offered a shining silver axe. Again, he gently refused, recognising that it lacked the strength and durability of his trusty iron axe. Impressed by woodcutter's humility and wisdom, the goddess smiled and presented him with a steel axe, identical to the one he had lost. Overjoyed, he accepted the gift.
In a gesture of gratitude, the goddess presented him with not only the steel axe but also the golden and silver axes. Thomas's eyes widened in astonishment as he accepted the generous reward.

ABSTRACT
Sudha Murty, a prolific Indian author, delves into the intricacies of family relationships in her novels, offering profound insights into the dynamics, conflicts, and evolution of familial bonds.

Through rich character development and vivid storytelling, Murty intricately weaves together these narratives, inviting readers to contemplate timeless dilemmas.
