Q.2 Why did mother warn Douglas against river Yakima?

Q.3 What factors made Douglas decide in favour of the Y.M.C.A pool?

Q.4 What complex did Douglas have when he had to get into the pool? What did he do about it?

Q.8 How did the narrator fight his terror while struggling to come out of water?

  3. Sir since you asked us to talk about two things about the story that stood out to me. I would say that the first would be the way how the accident was described in meticulous detail. Secondly I think what stood out to me the most was, I think, the impact of the event on the life of the narrator. The way he described his trauma and gradual escape from it was truly inspiring.

  5. Sir the two things that stood out in the story were that until you don't overcome your mental fear of a certain thing you won't be able to do it physically and also that how important mental health and strength is to overcome our fears and rise again again and again.
