Test: Change of Heart - 2 - Class 6 MCQ

Prabhat would only take part in a game if he was sure that he would win. He didn't like the idea of losing, so he would avoid playing games unless he felt confident that he would win, especially in games like badminton where he was skilled.

A new student named Surya joined Prabhat's school. Surya was an excellent badminton player, and his carefree attitude towards games caught Prabhat's attention.

Surya's attitude towards the badminton match was very relaxed. He didn't take the match seriously and was smiling, joking, and having fun during the game, unlike Prabhat, who was preparing very seriously to win.

Prabhat was given the responsibility of keeping score during the match against Surya. While Surya was playing, Prabhat had to track the points of the game, but he later cheated by changing the scoreboard to make himself the winner.

Prabhat's feelings after winning the match by cheating were complex.

• Despite winning, he felt restless and could not sleep well that night.
• His victory did not bring him the usual joy; instead, it left him feeling uneasy.
• Surprisingly, he noticed that Surya, his opponent, was unaffected by the loss.
• This contrast in their emotions added to Prabhat's discomfort.

Overall, Prabhat's experience highlights the negative impact of cheating on personal satisfaction and sportsmanship.

Despite not being good at basketball and struggling to score, Surya enjoyed playing it. He kept smiling and having fun, showing that for him, the enjoyment of the game was more important than winning or being skilled at it.

Prabhat realized that the true joy of a game comes from enjoying the game itself, not just focusing on winning or losing. He understood that the fun lies in the experience of playing, rather than worrying about the outcome or keeping score.

Prabhat experienced a change in his attitude towards games. He stopped focusing only on winning and started enjoying the games for their own sake. He developed a great sporting spirit, having fun and playing with a positive attitude, which others noticed and admired.

The main theme of the story is about learning to enjoy the process of playing, not just focusing on winning or losing. Prabhat realizes that the true joy of a game comes from enjoying it for its own sake, just like Surya does.

The message of the story emphasizes that true success in sports comes from fair play, respecting others, and enjoying the game, rather than focusing solely on winning or cheating. Prabhat learns that sportsmanship is more about the experience than the result.
