उत्तर

Father  Maydhini my dear, you must read newspapers daily.
Maydhini  How does it help dad? Will they ask questions in the examination from them?
Father  No, newspapers help you know about the world.
Maydhini  I’m a small girl. Are there sections in a newspaper which will have things to my taste?

Maydhini  Can I send my puzzles and paintings?
Father  Yes, of course.
