26. Describe a person who solved a problem in a clever way?
People say that there are some people who are book smart while there are the others who are street smart. But, sometimes, I think that the street smart persons come handier than the others. After all, it was the street smart person, who gave me a clever solution to a problem, and this is his story.Kyle and I attended the same school and the same classes. Kyle, a very street smart boy, didn’t really like to go to the school on a regular basis. Instead, he would rather like to roam around here and there with his friends – friends who were just as smart as him. As for me, I liked going to school and attending the classes, but what I never liked was to carry a load of books in my backpack from home to school and then to home again every day, either because I was physically weak or because I was a bit too lazy. But, whatever was that the reason, I was desperately trying to find a solution to this book carrying problem.So, I asked Kyle for a solution, and in response, he simply told me to give him some money (that I had saved from my tiffin money). Then, he told me to wait for a couple of days. Up and until that point, I had no clue what his plan was with my money, but exactly after two days, Kyle handed me another set of school books and told me to keep them at my school locker. Apparently, he bought those books with my money, and the idea was that I would keep one set of the book at home and the other set at my school locker so that I wouldn’t really need to carry the books again from home to school and vice versa.Anyway, the solution was simply brilliant and very clever considering our age. It was smart also because it wouldn’t only help me save my breath, but would also save me the time to organize them at home. Besides, the solution also gave me ideas about what else I could have done with my saved up tiffin money.
27. Describe an important letter that you received?
Though people mostly send emails nowadays for official and personal communication, the handwritten letter has its own importance as well. Today I would like to talk about a handwritten letter thast I received when I was 14 years old. This particular letter was written by my father and I was so excited to receive it that I read it several times. The letter was about the scholarship result and my father wrote to me to inform me that I got the scholarship. In his letter, he congratulated me and wrote that he was proud of me.I was staying at a relative’s house after my final and scholarship exam with my mother and sister and one day I found that a post office peon delivered a letter to my uncle. My uncle handed over me the letter as it was addressed to me. I found that it was written by my father. I read the letter quickly and was very excited to learn the news. I read it again and then informed my mother and relatives about it. My mother read it and congratulated me as well.As a kid, the scholarship was very desiring for me and when I found that my father was very happy, that made me happier.
