Question 1. What makes Margot different from the other children? Why?
Answer: Margot is different from the other children because of her looks, her personality, and her experiences. She had memories of the sun and the glorious effect and warmth of the sun. Margot is “frail,” and she is fair-haired and white-skinned, so much so that she looks colorless, like a washed-out photograph. This was the main difference.
Question 2. What was the rumour? What did Margot think?
Answer: There was a rumour that her father and mother were taking her back to Earth next year. It seemed vital to her that they do so because she hated Venus and could not survive without the Sun on Venus. The decision to take Margot back to Earth would mean loss of thousands of dollars to her family.
Question 3. Why did the children hate her?
Answer: The children hated her for all these reason that was different from them. She hated the continuous rain while they were used to it. Margot spoke only about the sun and they had no memory of it. They hated her pale snow face, her waiting silence, her thinness, and her possible future of going back to the Earth.
Question 4. What is the ‘it’ referred to by William?
Answer: The ‘it’ referred to by William is the Sun which the scientists had predicted would shine that day for a short while.
Question 5. What was Margot waiting for? Why did William say it was a joke?
Answer: Margot was waiting for the reappearance of the Sun. Margot was waiting to see the sun predicted to shine that day for a short while. William hadn’t seen the Sun after (i.e.) for seven whole years. So, he called the possible reappearance of Sun a joke.
