NCERT Class 7 English – Poorvi Book: Unit-wise Solutions
Unit 1 – Learning Together
This unit builds teamwork, resilience, and reflective reading. You will practise identifying the central idea, tracking the narrator’s feelings, and answering reference-to-context (RTC) questions with a quote → idea → inference pattern. The poem teaches perseverance through sound devices (rhyme, repetition), while the prose piece on “seeing” strengthens theme, tone, and figure-of-speech spotting. Writing tasks include short reflections and diary entries. For quick scoring, keep answers structured: context in one line, two key points with text evidence, and a concluding value statement that links to “learning together”.
Unit 2 – Wit and Humour
Humour arrives through situation, exaggeration, and word-play. You’ll learn to locate the exact line that creates humour, explain how tone shifts, and choose precise words for short answers. The poem nudges you to observe people and use connotative meanings. For 3-markers, write cause → funny effect → message. Creative tasks include comic dialogues and character sketches that keep language polite and classroom-appropriate.
Unit 3 – Dreams and Discoveries
Innovation, imagination, and exploration are the heart of this unit. You will link cause and effect in an invention story, interpret symbolic images in poetry, and comprehend factual passages on geography. Answers should balance creativity with accuracy—state the idea, support it with a line or detail, and end with a realistic application. Writing practice includes process paragraphs (“How something works”) and short descriptive pieces.
Unit 4 – Travel and Adventure
Adventurous narratives push you to map settings, track suspense, and write crisp action lines. The travel poem sharpens observation and metaphor recognition. The “summit” chapter leads to motivational writing. For exam-style 5-markers, use the frame: context → two scene details with evidence → lesson or message. RTC answers must identify the speaker/situation and then explain the key idea in two short lines.
Unit 5 – Bravehearts
This unit honours courage and service. You will read tributes, letters, and a historical sketch. Focus on tone (respectful, grateful), formal vocabulary, and structuring longer answers: introduction of the person/event, two fact-backed qualities, and a concluding value. Writing tasks include messages of gratitude and brief biographical paragraphs using dates and places correctly.
