II BA Think Tank...:

I am of the firm view that in a flexible and creative atmosphere, students think originally, and with a vast inventory of knowledge, give some of their finest thoughts through pen to paper. Given below are uploads of the answers that my students of II BA English have written as part of their internal tests. For the sake of preserving their identity, I just give the answers alone without their names. It's upto the students to find their own creative vibes :-) Happy Reading..!
And, the question was:
Question 1. (b)
The hardest part of socializing, for many people, is initiating a conversation. And, the most important part of initiating conversation with a stranger is, arguably, having confidence. Moreover, getting to know people before initiating a conversation is not always practical.

Now, in this particular chapter, you find Jane initiating a conversation with a girl by asking her “Is your book interesting?’

What do you think were the reasons for Jane to initiate this conversation with a stranger? Was it because she felt lonely, or was it because she was very gregarious by nature and loved socialising, or was it because of any other reason, that you feel was the real ca(u)se? What are your observations on the character and nature of Jane in the course of the conversation?
