Internet  has  brought  the  world  closer.  Our  life  is  worth-living  because  of  the  endless

             blessings of science. Today, man is leading a happy life because of science.


                                                  2.  If I Were a Millionaire

             This is not a reality. It is possible only in dreams. It is just a wish. But, if it happens, I will
             not let this opportunity slip out of my hands. I will catch it immediately. I very well know

             that times, chance and tides wait for none. If I miss this all-time opportunity of my life, I
             shall be a fool, which I do not want to become.

             When I get millions of rupees in my pocket, I shall be the master of the situation. I shall
             complete all my incomplete jobs. I shall get a cosy and comfortable house. I shall buy a
             big car. I shall soar high in the sky. I shall be a free bird. I shall go around the world. I shall

             visit all the countries of the world. I shall go from east to west and from north to south. I
             shall drive to the other end of the globe. I will be the luckiest person of the world.

             But before doing all this, I want to help the poor and needy people of our country who
             cannot even get the basic necessities of life – food, clothing and shelter. One gets real
             happiness in helping others. When I see other people smile, I also smile. What can be

             the biggest happiness in life than getting blessings from so many people.


                                                  3.  A Visit to an Exhibition

             A visit to an exhibition is both educative and instructive. One learns a lot. One meets

             new  people.  One  is  acquainted  with  new  things  of  life.  One  knows  what  is  going  on
             around the world. What progress has been made in the fields of science and technology
             is displayed in exhibitions.

             This year in the month of November, a great exhibition was arranged in Guwahati. One
             day,  I  decided  to  visit  it  alongwith  my  classmates.  We  had  the  itinerary  (route,  guide

             book) map of the place. We visited pavilion after pavilion. There were Indian as well as
             foreign pavilions. Almost all the states of India were represented. It gathered a heavy mob
             of visitors. They showed their best in their home and cottage industries. The apples of
             Shimla and Kashmir were also exhibited. I purchased some of them.

             First of all, we went to Pakistan’s Emporium. The dry fruits of Kabul were very alluring.

             We bought a few packets of almonds. The shawls, carpets and rags of the neighbouring
             country  were  very  tempting.  I  bought  a  woollen  shawl  for  my  grandmother.  I  really
             enjoyed my visit to an exhibition. Such exhibitions are very rare. We should not miss to
             attend them.
