We didn’t have much money and lived a simple life, but it was good. My mother grew a few
vegetables to sell in the market and my father worked in a stone quarry.
Then my father became ill and couldn’t work. The droughts from climate change caused
many crops to fail. We became poor. We tried to move to the city but had to live in a shanty
town in the suburbs. I left school.
I was 11 and tried to earn some money. I went to work as a labourer on a cotton farm in a
nearby village. I had to walk for an hour to get there. It was very hard to work in the heat
under the sun and it was very painful. I earned just enough money each day to buy a loaf of
bread. I was bullied and beaten by my boss while I was working on the cotton farm.
There were lots of children working there – at least I made some friends and got something
to eat.
Nadia
The European Union says, ‘Every child deserves a peaceful and secure childhood and the
chance to go to school.’ The International Labour Organisation says that 2021 is the
‘international year for the elimination of child labour’. But there are still 140 million children
in child labour based on 2020 estimates. It is wrong to exploit even one child. It is a
disgrace!
We all need to take action. Make sure you write to your politicians about the issue. Get the
government to enforce child-labour laws and inspect factories and farms. Don’t buy goods
made in factories that employ children. Support children’s charities by giving your old
clothes and donations of money. Tell others about the problem on social media. Ask
celebrities to support the cause.
Mosi
I agree that some child labour is wrong but sometimes it is nobody’s fault and some work
can be good for children.
Climate change and other disasters make it difficult to grow food in some parts of the world.
All members of the family may need to work together to survive. Conflict and war are linked
to increases in child labour.
Earning money at a young age may be better than living in poverty, especially if it keeps a
family together and helps other children to go to school and be healthy.
2
And some teenagers don’t like school. They would be better at work learning skills rather
than wasting their time. Work teaches children self-discipline and to support their family and
community, which will help them in the future.
The United Nations says child labour is linked to poverty. If we support economic
development, child labour will gradually disappear.
Source 3
More people are living alone in single-person households. Living alone is more common in
rich industrialised countries. In Norway and Sweden, single-person households, rare a
century ago, are about half of all households today. However, the trend is worldwide.
Globally, the number of single- person households is higher than at any time in the past.
3
Source 4: The number of single-person households is growing
In the past, most people lived in nuclear families with two married parents and children
sharing the same household, sometimes with older generations.
However, evidence from sociological research globally shows that divorce is more common
than in the past. Research also shows that in many countries more people are living
together before marriage and more people are choosing not to have children than in the
past.
Research by Furstenberg (2019) shows how changes in family life over the past fifty years
in the developed world are spreading to other nations experiencing economic development,
technological change, and changes in cultural beliefs. Fifty years ago, 42 per cent of
households in the United States were nuclear families; today they are just 22 per cent of
households.
Source 5
Arthit
Wouldn’t it be lonely to live on your own? If you have an accident or feel ill, who could look
after you? I love being with my family, talking and sharing together, and they help me when
I have a problem or feel sad.
It is risky to live alone too. In many countries access to healthcare and other social services
is restricted. The family can provide for you if you are unemployed, sick or too old to look
after yourself. It is not right to expect the government to look after you.
I read an article in a magazine that suggested more people living alone would create more
loneliness and mental illness. This is a problem. My grandmother says that she would hate
to live alone; she thinks families should care for each other, like in the past.
Malee
I really want to live on my own. I am buying an affordable apartment in the city designed for
single people. I want the freedom to choose my lifestyle. I can stay in, cook what I want, or
go out. Why burden someone else with my choices? I enjoy being on my own with time to
relax after work.
My friend Anna has chosen to be single to pursue her career and get promotion. She thinks
that long hours and dedication to work make marriage difficult for a partner.
4
Living alone is not the same as being lonely. A single person can have many friends. You
can speak to family on social media and digital technology whenever you need them. My
apartment in the city is surrounded by other people and there is a gym and a club in my
block.
Research studies by psychologists from the United States in 2019 show that living alone
does not cause loneliness, which proves my point!

आकर कोहरे के रूप में छा गए हैं । ग्रीष्म ऋतु की तपन से जब धरती की हररयाली सखने लगती
है और धरती प्यासी हो जाती है , तब मानो स्वयं र्वधाता आसमान में बादलों के रूप में आकर
बाररश की बूँदों के रूप में बरस कर धरती की प्यास बुझाते हैं , क्योंदक धरती की प्यास बुझाने के
र्लए बहुत- सी जलरार्श चादहए और यह अथाह जलरार्श वर्ाि ऋतु की बाररश से ही संभव है
और दफर इसी बाररश से धरती को नवजीवन र्मलता है , धरती पर इससे नये अंकुर फटते हैं ।
बाररश का दकसान सबसे अर्धक इं तजार करते हैं क्योंदक यदद सही समय पर बाररश होती है तो
उनकी फसलें लहलहा उठती हैं और धरती अन्न उपजाती है , लेदकन यदद बाररश कम होती है या
असमय होती है तो उन्हें इसके कारण सबसे अर्धक नुकसान भी होता है । बाररश की पहली बूँद

पड़ने से र्मट्टी की जो सौंधी महक उठती है , उसकी तुलना मनुष्य द्वारा अन्वेर्र्त दकसी भी इत्र
से नहीं की जा सकती । इस तरह बाररश धरती का उत्सव है , प्रकृ र्त का पवि है । सभी प्राल्णयों,
जीव- जंतु, वृक्ष- वनस्पर्तयों और मनुष्यों के र्लए बहुत सारी खुर्शयाूँ लेकर आती है । बाररश की
फुहार में भीगने के र्लए बच्चे सड़कों पर दौड़े चले जाते हैं । यहाूँ तक दक मवेशी भी, ल्जन्होंने
गर्मियों की लंबी दोपहर सखे जल-स्रोतों व चारागाहों के इदि -र्गदि भटकते हुए काटी थीं । बाररश के
बाद कीचड़ में कुछ इस तरह मजे से प्रवेश करते हैं मानो वह स्वगिलोक की आरामगाह हो। यदद
बाररश के मौसम में होने वाली छोटी-छोटी परे शार्नयों को नजरअंदाज कर ददया जाए तो बाररश
का सुहाना और मजेदार मौसम, ररमल्झम बाररश की फुहारें हमारी मन को भीतर तक तरं र्गत कर
दे ती हैं और प्रकृ र्त को, धरती को अनर्गनत उपहार दे ती हैं ।

A) संसार के सात आश्चयों में सबसे पहला नाम र्मश्र के र्परार्मडों का आता है । इन्हें आज से
लगभग 5000 वर्ि पहले बनाया गया था। र्मश्र के राजाओं ने इन पहाड़ जैसे आकारों का
र्नमािण शाही शवों को रखे जाने के र्लए करवाया था। ये संसार की सबसे प्राचीन समार्धयाूँ
अथवा मकबरे हैं । इसमें शव ज्यों के त्यों सुरल्क्षत रखे जाते थे, ल्जसके र्लए र्मश्र के
वैज्ञार्नकों ने एक लेप तैयार दकया था। इस सुरल्क्षत शव को ममी कहते हैं । र्मश्र के र्परार्मडों
और कब्रों में सैकड़ों ममी र्मली हैं ।
B) ममी और उनके साथ रखे जाने वाले करोड़ों रुपयों के सामान की रक्षा के र्लए र्मश्र के राजाओं
ने र्परार्मड बनवाए थे। लगभग 80 र्परार्मड अब तक र्मले हैं । इसमें सबसे बड़ा र्परार्मड

बनाने में 20 वर्ि लगे थे। लगभग एक लाख मजदर इस कायि में लगातार लगे थे। उस जमाने
में राजा, मजदरों को वेतन नहीं दे ते थे।उनको प्रर्तददन र्सफि प्याज और रोटी दी जाती थी।
तीन वर्ि बाद पुराने मजदर बदलकर नए मजदर रख र्लए जाते थे।
D) ये र्परार्मड अकेले नहीं बनाए जाते थे इनके साथ पजाघर और पुजाररयों के र्नवास-स्थान भी
होते थे। पुजारी र्परार्मड की दे खभाल करते थे और मृत राजाओं के र्लए प्राथिना करते थे। अब
पजाघर और र्नवास-स्थान खत्म हो गए हैं । बस ये र्परार्मड हैं जो रे त के टीलों के बीच खड़े
हैं ।

अभ्यास 3: प्रश्न 17- 20
प्रर्त वर्ि 21 अगस्त को ' र्वश्व वररष्ठ नागररक ददवस ' मनाया जाता है । इस ददवस को मनाने की
शुरुआत संयुक्त राज्य अमेररका में हुई थी और अब र्वश्व के अर्धकतर दे शों में इसे मनाया जाता है ।
1935 में अमेररका के राष्ट्रपर्त फ्रेंल्क्लन रोसवैल्ट ने 'सामाल्जक सुरक्षा अर्धर्नयम ' पर हस्ताक्षर दकये
थे, ल्जसके अनुसार ' नेशनल सीर्नयर र्सटीजन डे ' 14 अगस्त को मनाया जाता था । 1988 तक इसे
14 अगस्त को ही मनाया गया ।
1988 में अमेररका के तत्कालीन राष्ट्रपर्त रोनाल्ड रीगन ने 21 अगस्त को 'नेशनल सीर्नयर र्सटीजन
डे ' घोर्र्त दकया । इसका मुख्य उद्दे श्य अमेररका में उन वररष्ठ नागररकों को, जो अपने समुदायों में
सकारात्मक योगदान दे ते हैं , को सम्मान दे ना है । कोई भी दे श क्यूँ न हो, हर जगह बुजुगों को
आदर दे ना सामाल्जक संस्कृ र्त है । भारतीय संस्कृ र्त में तो बुजुगों को पररवार में सदा से ही महत्व
र्मलता रहा है । उनसे पछे र्बना घर में कोई कायि नहीं होता था । संयुक्त पररवारों में बुजुगों
का अनुभव और सबका साथ सामाल्जक जीवन को सुगम बना दे ता था । बड़ों की छाूँव में बच्चे कब
बड़े हो जाते थे, माता र्पता को पता ही नहीं चलता था । बुजुगों का जीवन भी हूँ सी - खुशी से कट
जाता था ।
कई दे शों में बुजुगों को वृद्धाश्रम में रखने की परं परा शुरू हुई । ल्जसका प्रभाव अब भारत में भी ददख
रहा है । संयुक्त पररवार लगभग टट ही चुके हैं । जीर्वका के र्लये संघर्ि बढ़ा है । उपभोक्तावाद ने
लोगों की महत्वाकांक्षाओं में इजाफा दकया है । धन प्रार्ि की होड़ ने परं परागत मल्यों को समाि कर
ददया है । आज एकल व स्वकेंदित पररवारों का युग है ल्जसमें बुजुगों की भावनाओं को समझने का
दकसी के पास समय ही नहीं है । बच्चे अपनी नौकरी व ल्जंदगी में इतने व्यस्त होते हैं दक
पररवार के बुजुगों पर ध्यान दे ने का उन्हें समय ही नहीं र्मलता । ल्जसके कारण वररष्ठ लोग या
तो घर में अकेले रहते हैं , या साथ पाने के र्लए वृद्धाश्रम चले जाते है । कुछ ऐसे भी पररवार होते हैं
जहाूँ बच्चों को बड़े बोझ लगने लगते हैं ।
7
वृद्धावस्था में और्र्ध से अर्धक अपनों के साथ की जरूरत महसस होती है । बुजुगि बस यही चाहते
है दक उनको सम्मान र्मले, उनको वह महत्व र्मले ल्जसके वो अर्धकारी हैं , उम्र के इस दौर में जब
शरीर भी उनका साथ नहीं दे ता है , ऐसे में मानर्सक संतुर्ि उनके र्लए संजीवनी होती है । यदद उनसे,
उनके जीवन के कुछ पुराने दकस्से पछें , उनके गवि क्षण के बारे में उनसे पछें , उनकी बातों को ध्यान
से सुन उनकी सराहना करें । उनकी पसंदीदा जगह पर ले जाएूँ, उनके जीवन के व्यर्क्तगत पलों को
जानने में ददलचस्पी ददखायें, तो उन्हें तो अच्छा लगेगा ही साथ ही आप भी समझ पायेंगे दक ररश्तों
को कैसे र्नभाया जाता है , ररश्ते में मजबती कैसे लाई जाती है ?
सदै व याद रखें दक वररष्ठ जन आपका साथ चाहते हैं दया नहीं । केवल एक ददन ही नहीं यदद बुजुगों
के प्रर्त परवाह को आप सामाल्जक दार्यत्व समझना शुरू कर दें , तो यह आपको प्रसन्न एवं आपके
व्यर्क्तत्व को एक गररमा प्रदान करे गा ।
