Examinations are always fearful. They are a great cause of fear,
anxiety, tension and worry. The night before the examination is really painful. The students have no sleep. They stop eating food. They want to read and revise everything.

They do not take anything in the morning. They go to the examination hall on empty stomachs. Sample 2 The Season I Like Most
My favourite season is the Rainy season. In India it is a very
important season. The agriculture in India depends largely on the water given by the rains. For me it is the most colourful of all the seasons. One can see a lot of greenery around oneself. The dark clouds are a great blessing and are eagerly awaited after the scorching summer heat. The best part of the season is that one gets a lot of unexpected holidays and off from the school due to the rains. It is a pleasure to go out in the rains and get wet in the water. Sample 3 The Scene At A Railway Platform
The scene at a Railway Platform is always enjoyable. It presents a
picture of mini India. Last Sunday I went to the city Railway station to see my uncle off. The platform was overcrowded. Passengers of all states like Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Assam etc, could be seen. There were many stalls on the platform. Small children were running here and there. Coolies in red dress were going to and fro. Passengers were taking tea. Some people were reading newspapers. They were waiting for the train. Soon the train came. My uncle got a seat and the train started. I returned home. Write a paragraph on any one of the following topics.
