“Action speaks louder than words” is an old-age proverb with a deep hidden

meaning. Truly, a person’s action will tell us everything we need to


know. Action is defined as the work we do and is visible to everyone, whereas
words are merely spoken words that everyone hears. Actions successfully done
give tremendous results; on the other hand, boastfully spoken words do not
necessarily give results without the hands of action. For instance, words mean
nothing when our actions oppose our claims. This proverb, in general, tries to
spread the message that actions are much stronger than words, and with the
powerful weapon of actions, one can be successful compared to those who try
to achieve by their words. Moreover, it is not at all necessary if someone is
telling about his/her future actions; he/she will do it.

The examination is a tragedy. Students are so terrified of it that they begin to


shake at the very recognition of its name. As soon as it comes near, they get
anxious. The night before an examination is full of panic and puzzlement for
them. They do not feel like eating and sleeping. They are preoccupied with
revising the expected questions and feel as if they are blank. They worry they
will be unable to answer the queries asked in the paper. They try to concentrate
on their textbooks but find it challenging to do so. Their self-confidence seems
to forget them. They try to keep themselves awake somehow. If ever nap tries
to undertake them, they go and wash their face or have a cup of warm coffee.
Parents tell them to sleep for some time, but sleep does not come by; they do
not want to risk going to sleep. They are hectic. They do not wish to talk to
anybody. In this way, the night before the examination is an aspiration for them.
