1- a situation when you waited for a bus or a train 2- a challenging profession you know about

part to me. The organic chemistry dealt with the natural matters. It dealt with 
the living things. In fact, it tells the source of life. How life is created and how it 
is destroyed again. Biochemistry is the other interesting area to me as it deals 
with the chemical process inside the living things. Besides, there are some 
subcategories are also found on the subject but I did not have that much 
interest in those.

Model Answer 1:
I am a part-time sales executive at a multinational computer hardware selling 
showroom. I had to remain busy last month, on 24th to be more specific, as 
there was a huge pressure on sales. In fact, it was the greatest sale of the year 
as the company declared a 50 percent off with all of its products marking its 
50th anniversary.
The sale began from the morning after the shop was opened. People rushed 
into the showroom. As I am a part-timer, I came in the afternoon and the sales 
pressure began. I have never seen such a rush in the shop before. A wide 
number of people arrived in the outlet and purchased their necessary items. 
They were happy with the reduced amount of the products. And it was really a 
happy event for them that they are having the pricy products within half of the 
price. Even some of the customers have bought a pair of products and gadgets. 
I had to serve the clients and provide them with the necessary guidance. 
Besides, I was responsible for checking the stealing. Last year, the shop 
authority had experienced the events of stealing and thus they are aware of 
the issue this year. They asked me to be much careful. Besides, I was also 
responsible for welcoming the customers and clients at the shop and show 
them the necessary things they are in need of. But I also had to do some other 
tasks simultaneously. I had to organise the disorderly products, keep the 
inventory neat and clean and the other relevant tasks. So, to complete all the 
required tasks, I had to remain busy always. Further, I had to move from here 
and there inside the shop to take care of the entire responsibilities.
It was hard for me to manage the entire activities. In fact, I became tired of 
performing the duties one after another. But, I had no ways left except doing 
the duties until my duty hours were over. I had passed a hefty day indeed. I 
followed a structure to manage the activities. Firstly, I checked the monitors of 
CCTV to check if everything was going right. When I found no suspicious 
activities, then I came out of the monitoring room. Meeting and greeting the 
clients was the second step of my responsibility. So, I had to wait beside the 
main entrance to greet the potential clients. When someone entered the shop,

I welcomed them and asked to assist them by showing the products and 
appliances available at the shop. When they selected their necessary product 
or appliance, my duty was over and I handed them to another sales 
executive.
Initially, I felt that I want a relief. But being a busy person has some interesting 
benefits. When someone becomes busy with any activity, time passes 
smoothly. It appears that time flies away in those moments. I was unable to 
track the time yesterday. I entered the shop at 4.00pm and my duty ended at 
10.00pm. In other days, time does not want to pass but the experience was 
completely different last night. Besides, meeting with newer people and 
describing them about the advantages and features of the products was really 
interesting and enjoyable. In the other ordinary days, there is no such rush of 
sales and working hours appear dull. I really enjoyed the busy working hours 
and want to remain busy always like that day.
