Robinson Crusoe class 5 Summary in English

Robinson Crusoe had been living alone on an island for a long time because his ship had been destroyed by the sea. He wanted the company to overcome his loneliness. One day he saw a footprint on the sand. He was sure that it was the footprint of a man. He searched for more footprints but couldn’t find any. He got frightened. He ran back to his cave. He could not sleep that night. He thought that the footprint could be one of the savages of the mainland who had wandered out to the sea in a small boat. What would happen if he came with other savages and killed him? He began to pray for protection. Now he felt a little bolder. He wanted to see the footprint again. So, one day he went out to the sea-shore and decided to measure it with his own footmark. He came closer to it and realized that it was not his footprint because he had not come to at part of the beach. Moreover, the footprint was bigger than his own footprint. Now, he became sure that someone lived on the island. He got frightened again and went back to his cave.

Robinson Crusoe class 5 Summary in Hindi

रॉबिन्सन क्रूसो लंबे समय से एक द्वीप पर अकेले रह रहे थे क्योंकि उनका जहाज समुद्र से नष्ट हो गया था।  वह चाहते थे कि कंपनी उनके अकेलेपन को दूर करे।  एक दिन उसने रेत पर एक पदचिन्ह देखा।  उन्हें यकीन था कि यह एक आदमी के पदचिह्न थे।  उसने और पदचिन्हों की खोज की लेकिन कोई नहीं मिला।  वह डर गया।  वह वापस अपनी गुफा की ओर भागा।  उस रात वह सो नहीं सका।  उसने सोचा कि पदचिन्ह मुख्य भूमि के उन जंगली लोगों में से एक हो सकता है जो एक छोटी नाव में समुद्र में भटक गए थे।  क्या होगा यदि वह अन्य जंगली लोगों के साथ आए और उसे मार डाले?  वह सुरक्षा के लिए प्रार्थना करने लगा।  अब वह कुछ ज्यादा ही साहसी महसूस कर रहा था।  वह फिर से पदचिह्न देखना चाहता था।  इसलिए, एक दिन वह समुद्र के किनारे पर गया और उसने अपने पैरों के निशान से इसे मापने का फैसला किया।  वह उसके करीब आया और महसूस किया कि यह उसका पदचिन्ह नहीं था क्योंकि वह समुद्र तट के किसी भाग पर नहीं आया था।  इसके अलावा, पदचिह्न अपने स्वयं के पदचिह्न से बड़ा था।  अब, उसे यकीन हो गया कि कोई द्वीप पर रहता है।  वह फिर डर गया और वापस अपनी गुफा में चला गया।
