Read the extract given below and answer the questions that follow:
You are wel", Sadao agreed. He lowered his voice. "You are so well that I
think if I put my boat on the shore tonight, with food and extra clothing in
it, you might be able to row to that little island not far from the coast. It is
so near the coast that it has not been worth fortifying. Nobody lives on it
because in storm it is submerged. But this is not the season of storm. You
could live there until you saw a Korean fishing boat pass by. They pass
quite near the island because the water is many fathoms deep there'
The young man stared at him, slowly comprehending. Do I have to ? he
asked.'

you are here."

Mukesh insists on being his own master. "I will be a motor mechanic', he announces. Do you know anything about cars ?' I ask. I will learn to drive a car." he answers, looking straight into my eyes. His dream looms like a mirage amidst the dust of streets that fill his town Firozabad, famous for its bangles. Every other family in Firozabad is engaged in making bangles. It is the centre of India's glass blowing industry where families have spent generations working around furnaces, welding glass, making bangles for all the women in the land it seem Mukesh's family is among them. None of them know that it is illegal for children like him to work in the glass furnaces with high temperatures
