Question
Which is the turning point in the poem?
Solution
When the pistol was fired, one contestant fell down while the rest ran forward. Normally the race would finish with any three out of them winning the first three positions.
But this did not happen in this race, something else happened. All of them stopped and turned back to help their fellow-contestant. And this was the turning point of the poem.
