A 120-word answer is just a structured paragraph. You state the theme, give one strong quote or example as evidence, then say why this matters—the value point. But teacher says length matters more than depth here. In my board, if you write less than 120 words, they deduct marks even if your answer is complete. I once wrote a perfect answer on Gandhi in "The Story of My Experiments with Truth" but used short sentences and fell short by 20 words. I lost three marks. So now I add filler lines about "the author's noble message to society" to reach the count. The system wants volume, not sharpness.
