It was already late when we set out for the next town which according to the map was about 15 miles away on the other side of the Hills. There we felt sure that we would find a bed for the night. Darkness fell soon after we left the village, but luckily, we met no one as we draw swiftly along the narrow winding road and that led to the hills as we climbed higher it became colder and rain began to fall, making it difficult at times to see the road. I asked jaune my companion to drive more slowly
After we had traveled for about 20 miles, there was still no sign of the town which was marked on the map. We were beginning to get worried then without warning the car stopped. A quick examination showed that we had run out of petrol. Although we had little food with us only a few biscuits and some chocolate, we decided to spend the night in the car.
Our meal was soon over. I tried to go to sleep at once, but Jhon, who was a poor sleeper, got out of the car after a few minutes and went for awake woke up the hill. Soon he came running back from the top of the hill he had seen, in the valley below, the lights of the town we were looking for. We at once unloaded all our luggage with a great effort managed to push the car to the top of the hill. Then we went back for the luggage loading the car again and set up down the Hill in less than a quater of an hour we were in the town where we found a hotel quite easily.

Answer:
An essay is, generally, a piece of writing that gives the author's own argument — but the definition is vague, overlapping with those of a letter, a paper, an article, a pamphlet, and a short story. Essays have traditionally been sub-classified as formal and informal. Formal essays are characterized by "serious purpose, dignity, logical organization, length," whereas the informal essay is characterized by "the personal element (self-revelation, individual tastes and experiences, confidential manner), humor, graceful style, rambling structure, unconventionality or novelty of theme," etc.[1]
Essays are commonly used as literary criticism, political manifestos, learned arguments, observations of daily life, recollections, and reflections of the author. Almost all modern essays are written in prose, but works in verse have been dubbed essays (e.g., Alexander Pope's An Essay on Criticism and An Essay on Man). While brevity usually defines an essay, voluminous works like John Locke's An Essay Concerning Human Understanding and Thomas Malthus's An Essay on the Principle of Population are counterexamples.
In some countries (e.g., the United States and Canada), essays have become a major part of formal education. Secondary students are taught structured essay formats to improve their writing skills; admission essays are often used by universities in selecting applicants, and in the humanities and social sciences essays are often used as a way of assessing the performance of students during final exams.
The concept of an "essay" has been extended to other media beyond writing. A film essay is a movie that often incorporates documentary filmmaking styles and focuses more on the evolution of a theme or idea. A photographic essay covers a topic with a linked series of photographs that may have accompanying text or captions.
