    What did Lencho hope for?

    Solution

    Lencho hoped for rains because the corn fields needed rain shower for irrigation.

    Question 2
    CBSEENEN10000414

    Why did Lencho say the raindrops were like ‘new coins’?

    Solution

    Lencho's corn fields were ready to be harvested. His fields needed shower before harvesting. He would be able to earn a good amount of money by selling the harvest. Thus, the raindrops looked like 'new coins' to him.

    Question 3
    CBSEENEN10000415

    How did the rain change? What happened to Lencho’s fields?

    Solution

    Acceding to Lencho's predictions, big drops of rain began to fall. But, soon strong wind began to blow resulting in dropping of large hail stones. The hailstones destroyed the corn fields completely.  

    Question 4
    CBSEENEN10000416

    What were Lencho’s feelings when the hail stopped?

    Solution

    Lencho's soul was filled with sadness. The hailstorm had affected the corn fields very badly. He lamented that even a plague of locusts would have left more than what was left after the hail storm. He said that they would not have any corn that year. They worked so hard throughout the year but all in vain.
