A Visit to a Historical Place

 A Visit to a Historical Place

We visited New Delhi last year. It is a historical place. Many kings ruled over Delhi in ancient times. Now, it is the capital of our county. People from all the states and even foreigners visit India. First of all, we saw the Red Fort. We walked in groups to see this great historical building. After that, we saw Jama Masjid, the Rashtra Pati Bhavan, and the Qutub Minar. There were many foreigners at the India Gate. We captured selfies with them. I liked all these buildings very much. I cannot forget visiting New Delhi for the first time.

Peer Pressure Helps Children to Grow

 ‘Peer Pressure Helps Children to Grow’

Worthy Principal, respected Judges, teachers, and dear audience, today, I’m going to speak in favour of the move ‘‘Peer Pressure Helps Children to Grow’.

Just yesterday, I was talking to my maternal grandfather and asked him if he knew anything about the term ‘peer-pressure’. He just smiled and told me that in his days such type of term was not heard but still he said that students were made to realise their targets by continuously pushing them ahead by several means. They used to quote examples of other students who were at the top of the class and so on.

Respected Judges, what I could understand about the term is being presented now.

In my humble opinion, ‘peer pressure’ had always been there in the past and is still present in our minds. What I feel is that without this pressure in the mind, there may be very few students, who work on their own and move successfully to realise their goals. But the majority of students require to have ‘peer pressure to proceed further towards their goals.

Now, I’m going to talk about a few points that justify the requirement of peer pressure in students’ minds to grow in life.

First, children are not fully mature to understand how to cope up with changing situations in life. They are not capable of distinguishing between ‘wrong’ and ‘right’. So wise parents guide their children to be aware of right and wrong decisions. When the parents quote examples of other students who are well-disciplined and motivated to work according to time table, etc., their children also follow their parents’ points easily and start work accordingly. In a way, they work under peer pressure, though indirectly.

Second, most of the students need examples to follow. They have a natural tendency to work in a group or to work under some pressure. Until or unless their parents or teachers tell them that they are lagging behind in their studies or in any project, they do not move. The moment they come to know that, they work speedily.

Third, I must say that when students continue working according to their plan or schedule, they become habitual of it. Although they start working under, maybe, extreme pressure in the beginning, they may continue habitually with a little bit of pressure.

Fourth, the pressure of time or that of ‘peers’ is not only necessary but also unavoidable. This is true not in the case of children but also of the grown-up. You should be agreed with me that almost in every field of life, peer pressure works. A farmer in a village also compares himself with another farmer and moves on to get better results. In a corporate office, the pressure of leaving their competitors behind is always at its peak. In a school, a good teacher always wishes to be in the good books of the principal by working harder than his or her counterpart.

Fifth, the children who work under ‘peer pressure’ always succeed in achieving their targets. But here I would like to add that the term ‘peer pressure’ must be understood properly. It is always positive and motivates the children to grow in thoughts and emotions. It makes school-going children feel at ease and take it a part of their life. It works as a motivating force to make children grow into responsible personalities.

Feeling Obliged

 

Dear Uncle

I have no words to express my gratitude to you for providing me an opportunity to visit the Hills Queen, that is, Shimla. It is seven days have passed since I arrived back home. But the beauty of the Shimla Hills is still fresh in my mind. The affection, care, and love you and your family showered on me are unforgettable moments in my memory.

You have not visited us for long. So it is your turn now to come to Chandigarh. My father will especially write to you about this.

Thanking you for your kind hospitality,

Yours Lovingly

Sumit

What is a Memo-Format of a Memo

 What is a Memo?

A memo is the short form of a memorandum (The plural form is Memoranda).

A.    Letters are used as a means of communication with other people, companies, or firms.  But a memo is written within an organisation, a company/firm institution, an office, etc.

B.    A memo is written in short.

For example, a managing director can circulate a memo to his employees in order to instruct them about any point.

A School Principal can instruct his staff about any point of concern.

Example:

Suppose you are the Principal of a College. Write a memo to the College staff, especially teachers, instructing them to reach school on time.

S.G.N. College of Education, Narela

Date: 29 May 2022

Memo No: 234/29-05-2-22

To: All the staff-members

From: S. Sawant, the Principal

All the staff members, especially the teachers, are required to pay attention to the habit of late coming to the premises of the college. Some of you have made your regular habit to reach college late even by half an hour. This is a sheer disrespect to the orders issued several times to all in written form. The management office-bearers have also taken a serious view of unpunctuality found in several staff members.

So, if any of the staff members reaches College late in the future, his or her full-day absence would be marked in the attendance register.

In case of any emergency, make a call and send a message to the coordinator well in time.

The Hare and the Tortoise

  

 The Hare and the Tortoise

Once, a hare was wandering about in a green field. By chance, he saw a tortoise, which was moving at a very slow speed. The hare made fun of his slow speed. The tortoise did not mind but gave him an open challenge to run a race with him. The hare readily accepted the challenge.

The starting and reaching points were decided. Both the little animals started running the race. The tortoise kept running at his usual slow speed. But the hare picked up at once his fastest speed to reach the winning point. He reached the halfway within a few minutes.

The hare was lazy. He felt like sleeping. He looked behind to see the tortoise. But he was not visible to him anywhere.

Thinking that the tortoise would reach there in half an hour, he lay down on the green grass and fell asleep. After fifteen minutes, the tortoise passed that place. He saw the hare snoring in sleep. But he did not stop. He kept on moving.

After some time, he reached the winning post. Other animals in the forest were already waiting for the winner. They started clapping for the tortoise.

In the meantime, the hare woke up. He started running in a hurry.

But alas! When he reached the winning post, the tortoise was already declared the winner. The hare felt ashamed and ran away from that place.

 

Moral: Never boast of your abilities. Or Pride hath a fall.
