"l wouldn't throw it away". (iii) What is it being compared with by the speaker?

Answered by admin @



Tommy compares the television screen with that of the real printed books.

EXPLANATION:

“I wouldn’t throw it away.” This is a sentence uttered by Tommy in the story The Fun they Had. It refers to the television screen through which one can read a million of books. Here, Tommy compares the television screen with that of the real printed books.

The printed books have pages and after they are read, they can be thrown away. But, the television screen would not be thrown away by Tommy at any point of time.

That’s what he compares with the real books.  The frustration of studying under the mechanical teacher is revealed through the words of Tommy.
