The Beggar
“The Beggar” is a Class 9 English chapter about Lushkoff, a poor man who begs by telling lies, and Sergei, who challenges him to work instead. Although Lushkoff struggles to change, Sergei’s guidance and Olga’s quiet compassion help him regain dignity and build an honest life. Students explore themes of poverty, kindness, responsibility, self-respect, and personal transformation while reflecting on how empathy and meaningful support can change someone’s future.
