उत्तर
Papa Panov was a kind and humble shoe-maker. He lived in a village in Russia. He was a cheerful man, who lived alone. He was a widower and his grown-up children had left home to seek their fortune. He was loved by his villagers. He was a happy man with laughter wrinkles on his face indicating his happy life. He was quite old and had weak eyesight which made him wear spectacles. He earned a decent living. We come to know of this because he helped people in distress. He seems to be a god-fearing and pious man because he not only dreamt of God in his dream but also spoke to him. Though he was lonely he brightened himself up by helping people when needed. We can sum these qualities of Papa Panov as being a wonderful human being with a golden heart. He is filled with humaneness, empathy, selflessness, and love for mankind making him God's beloved creature.

It is widely believed that people do their best work when they are promised rewards for their achievements. Our schools and workplaces operate on the assumption that good work occurs when people are competing for grades, money, or recognition from others. In truth, the prospect of rewards provided by others can inhibit and limit people’s drive and creativity. People do their best work when motivated from within by their enjoyment of a particular challenge and their satisfaction in doing something well.
