A viewpoint

Son goes for NTSE for class III. It being Talent Search, I did not teach him, wanted to know his take.

Son comes back. He has marked options on question paper.Couple of pleasant and unpleasant surprises and then the question

Q. Select the odd one out
a. Deer b. Elephant
c. Tiger d. Rabbit

Answer marked is Elephant. Asked why so. Pat comes the reply,"Because Elephants don't jump, or pounce! "

"Have you ever seen an elephant jump?", asks he and hops on to the bed to get some sleep.
