10: All Summer in a Day by Ray Bradbury
- #5How was their dream shattered?Ans : The children dreamt about the sun but their dream came to an end and they awoke to the sound of the drum. The endless shaking down of clear bead necklaces in the form of rain upon the roof, the walk, the gardens, the forests and their dreams were shattered. The day before, they had read about the sun in the class. Its appearance was like lemon and it was hot. They had even written small stories, essays or poems also about it. It was like a flower that bloomed for just one hour.
