Answer 1

Goodmorning Teachers and my dear Friends,

I am Lokesh and I would like to tel you that I was always a classtopper.But last year I was not able to earn high marks due to my overconfidence.This year I was at third position.So I decided that this year I would do anything to be the class topper.I thought about cheating in exams.But Yesterday I read a story written by Ruskin Bond.The name of the story is "The Thief".This story made me realise the importance of being honest.So today I would like to share it with you.In the story,there was a very simple but honest and noble man named Arun.One day a theif decided to fool Arun and getway with all his money.But slowly he realises that Arun is a very kind man.Arun teaches him all the cooking and other house works.One day the theif steals money but he realises his mistake and returns all the money to Arun.

So my friends from now I will only do hardwork and no cheating.I will win but only by my honesty and hardwork.

Thank you and have a nice day.

Answer 2

Answer:

I was always a class topper. However invariably, I used foul means during exams to gain those high marks

Once on the day of History examination,I realized that my class mate and friend Far ha an came all prepared for Maths instead of History. Farhaan had becomed desperate. So I Offered to let him copy from my sheet, since Farhaan sat just behind me.

Farhaan refused. He said,"It's all right even I get zero, but I can call it my own zero. I don't want to score a single mark, unearned. Cheating in exams is towards. Not me!"

These words were a turning point in my life. I gave up cheating for ever. I worked hard for what I desired and never, ever used false measures to acquire anything.
