write a letter to the editor of 'the times of India' church gate, Mumbai telling in short about the incident and requesting him to write an article on the importance of road safety.

To
The Editor,

Churchgate,
Mumbai

Sub: Road safety

Dear Sir,

Yesterday my friend and I witnessed an accident on the main road outside Borivali Railway Station. The motorcyle rider had fled from the place of the accident and left the child going home from school injured and bleeding on the road. The people passing by did not pay any attention to the child crying in pain in the middle of the road. Some vehicles were even trying to pass by the child without even caring that an injured child was lying in the middle of the road.

Please write about road safety in your esteemed newspaper and make people aware and sensitive about road safety and accidents. Accidents are bound to happen due to negligence of people crossing without looking and speeding vehicles. That may not be avoidable, but with your help people can become more aware of the dangers of over speeding and walking without looking at the on coming traffic. A series of articles with inputs from vehicle owners and citizens will help us create a safer city for everyone.

We look forward to your support in this valuable cause.

Yours faithfully,
 Khusboo

Write a letter to your mother expressing your feeling about how people fell to provide necessary help to the child.
My Dearest Mummy,
How are you? It's been about a month since I wrote to you. My mid-term exams were going on and we had a lot to learn and prepare for the exams so the delay in writing. I hope Daddy and Vikas are well. How did Vikas do in his exams? He was telling me that he was having some difficulty with his Maths. Life is going on as usual. The new term has just started and we will get a break for Diwali next month and I'm coming home for all your tasty sweets and delicious food. Just can't wait.

Last week, when my roommate and I were out on our holiday we witnessed an accident near Fountain High School, It was an hit and run case, a child was hit by a motorcycle and the rider escaped just because of the indifferent attitude of the people there at that time. The accident took place at around 12.15 pm and the child lay there in the middle of the road, in pain because of the injury and the bleeding from his wounds. The people standing there seemed not to care and did not want to help knowing the attitude of the police and hospital staff. My roommate seemed very sad and she said that we must do something for the child and started asking car owners to take the child to the nearest hospital. After requesting about ten vehicles one taxi driver came forward and took the child to the hospital. We accompanied the child, got him some medical attention, called his parents and when they arrived and took over his needs, my friend and I left and we went back to our hostel as we were tired with all the commotion that had taken place. Just before going to sleep my roommate and I were discussing the lethargy and casual behaviour of the people around the accident location.They just didn't want to help in any way. It's very sad to know that people have this, 'I don't care feeling.' We both went to sleep knowing that we had done our duty and the child was safe and being cared for when we left the hospital.

I'll be home soon. This time I want you to teach me how to prepare some of those tasty dishes you make so I too can make something for my hostel friends occasionally.  Please convey my love to Daddy and Vikas.

Your loving daughter,
Kushboo

You happen to meet a successful person who is disabled. Write an imaginary dialogue between you and that person.


You happen to meet a successful person who is disabled. Write an imaginary dialogue between you and that person. 



You: Good morning Vaibhav, how are you?

Vaibhav: I'm fine Srinivas, how are you today?

You: First of all Congratulations on winning the Mumbai's Youngest Chess Champion Tournament.

Vaibhav: Thank you, Srinivas, that's an honour.

You: Tell us something about your disability, how did this happen?

Vaibhav: I lost use of both the legs in an accident when I was five years old. A pillar fell on my legs and I was rescued only after 4 hours. If I was saved earlier, this would not have happened.

You: That's sad and very unfortunate. 

Vaibhav: Yes, it was very sad and unfortunate at that time, but now it's a blessing. I started playing chess only after the accident. Having just to sit and not being able to walk I started playing chess with my mother and see where I am today.

You: Do you follow any particular player or do you have a favourite?

Vaibhav: I follow every grandmaster and all of them are my favourites, because when I noticed them carefully, I realised that all of them had something special about them and they were all champions.

You: What kind of support did you receive?

Vaibhav: My main support were my parents and siblings, friends came in later. I thank my friend Bharat for taking me to the chess coaching camp one summer, which he did everyday in the afternoon just so that I could play and enjoy myself.

You: You seem to be winning a lot of tournaments now. What's your message for the children of today?

Vaibhav: The only message I have for everyone today is to do something. That's it. Get up every morning and try to do something and when you find that one thing that makes you loose your sleep, go after it.

You: Vaibhav, that's wonderful and really motivating. I hope everyone reading this interview will learn something today. Thank you Vaibhav.

Std.10 - Picture Composition - A Football match composition


The finals of the All Mumbai Girls Inter School Champions Trophy was held on August 30, 2019 at the Thakur Sports Complex grounds in Kandivali (E) at 4.00 pm. The teams playing in the finals were St.Xavier’s High School and my school, Children’s Academy. St.Xavier’s High School was the reigning champion and had not conceded a single goal throughout the tournament. For our school it was a do or die situation but for the opponent it would be a continuation of their winning streak.

On the day of the game, our team assembled in the school at 2 o’clock and was taken to the ground in the school bus. On reaching the ground, the players were given new jerseys for the final match. Since most of the players were from Std.10, almost all the students were present on the ground to support and cheer them. Our opponents too had a large number of students to cheer their team. The ambience on the ground was similar to an international sports event.

The opponents won the toss and chose to take the first kick and our captain chose the Thakur College end of the ground as the sun was still over the other half of the ground which would make the players sweat and tired. All the spectators sat under the shade of the trees which surrounded the ground. The skipper of the rival team was the best player of the tournament and her excellent dribbling skills made them dominate the first half of the match. Our defense put up a very brave fight and prevented them from scoring any goals.

Our team got to kick start the second half and that gave them an upper-hand. Through some very sharp moves and quick passes, the three forward players and the middle centre half player sliced through the rivals and scored the only goal of the match. The opponents gave their best throughout the second half but could not make any headway and the final whistle blew without them scoring a single goal.

Our school won the championship. There was cheering, screaming, shouting, yelling and every possible action of a winning team. On the way back, all the students were celebrating with the  team in the bus and the rest of them on the streets dancing and cheering. Many students staying en route joined the merrymaking all the way back to the school.
