Model Answer 1:
I have not experienced a circus and recently came to know about the event of
a circus in our locality. There is a large field adjacent to our village and it was
heard that a circus party will arrive soon.
In fact, Dhamsa is a remote village in Haora district under West Bengal in India.
The village people pass their days amid the ancient ways. Modern technology
is not accessible to everyone in the village. In such a condition, the arrival of a
circus helps to excite the people to some extent. Circus is a great mode of
entertainment for the people living in the rural areas
in India and when I heard
about it, I also felt glad indeed. I did not have the chance to see circus under a
large tent. Usually, the organisers hold circus under a very large tent covering a
substantial space in an open field. Accordingly, the field of our locality was
being cleaned by the scout team of the circus party. I have heard many stories
about the circus team from my grandparents and most of the descriptions
were filled with thrills and excitements. They told different
attractive stories
over the circus.
The village I live in is a bit backward from the other places and villages in West
Bengal. The majority of the people have telephone but internet connections
are not available for everyone. So, when any special event is to take place in
the locality, the issues is announced through public announcement system.
Often a loudspeaker is hired and an announcer starts announcing details about
the event. While playing cricket on the field with my local friends,
I heard the
announcement and learned that the circus party will arrive shortly in our
village. The announcer was describing the features of the circus party and they
included some interesting issues. The announcer was describing that a large
and trained elephant will entertain the audiences while there would be some
trained ferocious animals like tiger and lion. Besides, the circus party will also
exhibit some thrilling shows on night times. Bike riding encircled with fire was
another interesting thing.
As
a preset rule, the circus parties start announcing their arrival on any place
one or two days before performing the shows. So, the announcer was saying
that the circus party will arrive the very next day and thus he invited us all to
collect some advanced tickets. It was evening and I was on an empty space
beside the field where the tents of the circus party were supposed to be set. I
was playing with some of my local and childhood friends. But when the
announcer entered into the village, we stopped our
game and started listening
to him. In the beginning, it was somewhat difficult for us to realise his dialect
which was unfamiliar to us. Then we gradually understood that he was
announcing about the circus party which has rumoured for past few days. In
fact, the village people somehow came to know about the arrival and started
discussing the issue among them. As a result, I could not get any solid
information about the circus from the villagers. All of my confusions were
removed when the announcer declared the arrival
and also distributed some
leaflets about the circus party.
The news of the arrival of a circus party was very much interesting to me. I
have seen circus on television but have not seen them live before my eyes.
Besides, my grandparents also told many thrilling stories about the circus. They
told that all the people in a circus party are brave and they take different risks.
If they commit a single mistake, they may have to pay the price with their lives.
Besides, they also described the trained animals and how they perform on the
stage. Moreover, the stuntmen and athletes on the circus also perform
different attractive activities. They jump using ropes, walk on rope set on an
exceptional height,
ride a bicycle on the rope, drive cars and motorbikes in
risky tracks, and so many incidents. Hearing all the things, an extreme desire to
observe the things developed inside me. Thus the news of circus party was
interesting to me.
