In the Short Story Araby who is the Boy in love with

The boy‟s love for the girl was not a proper love affair between a young man and a girl. The boy was too young for that. His love was just childish infatuation( ); a silent adoration. He was too timid to express his love by word or deed. He just looked at the girl whenever he had a chance. He felt small and foolish in her presence.

 

Therefore he could never make his feelings known to her. He could never tell her how much he loved her. Sometimes he followed her along the street quietly and at a respectful distance, without a word between them. Sometimes he peeped at her from an upstairs window of his house, lying flat on the floor to avoid being seen.

 

Sometimes he broke out into passionate expression like “O‟Love, O‟Love”, but he could never say these words in her presence. In short his love was just a childish, foolish, one-sided affair. It only made him suffer, still he could not give it up.

 

This kind of love is quite common in the process of growth from childhood to youth. This period of physical and emotional growth is called puberty. During this period the sensitive and imaginative child develops a deep attachment to one of the young people around him or her.

 

Some students fall in this kind of love with their teachers. This kind of emotional attachment is sincere but transitory in nature. it Passes off as the child steps into youth.

 

The links between physical culture and work activity can be traced in many aspects. 1. Any labor process has a training phase, and with its long duration and intensity, also a phase of decreased efficiency. Means of physical education accelerate workability, slow down the decline in working capacity and labor productivity, contribute to a more rapid recovery of the neuropsychic and muscular energy lost in the process of work.
