Answers
Answer:
although it says to talk about "the physical features", i wouldn't really go about it in that way. instead, i'd probably talk about the atmosphere of the school environment -> example: the bustle of students milling about and the calm among the business of classes etc.
Intro:
- talk about spending time in isolation
- briefly mention the 3 main ideas you're gonna cover
Para 1:
- interacting and spending time with friends
- this is a good opportunity to bring in a comparison of how you are now forced to make do with texting, calling, Zoom calls
* remember, its a creative essay so don't be afraid to inject some sarcasm or personal quality. this is what distinguishes an average essay with a high order thinking essay of a good quality.
- mention how you used to take this time at school for granted and how you didn't realise how lucky you were to be able to experience the school atmosphere
Para 2:
- participating in after-school or extra curricular activities
- use description to create and paint a picture of a day school - don't fall into the trap of retelling and listing (this is not high quality). Focus on aspects of school that you actually have a connection to.
- maybe you loved collaborating in class with your peers and working as a team, but now you can't do that as easily
Para 3:
- some of the positives of not having to go to school
- mention things like sleeping-in, having more freedom with your learning style
- discovering new interests and skills that you have, which you wouldn't have found otherwise
Conclusion:
- sum it up on a positive note
- even though it's hard having to stay at home, i'm sure we'll be able to get back soon
- it's nice to finish off with a motivational or inspirational quote by a well-known figure - a nice touch
- just make sure its relevant to the whole theme of you essay
The key to a good essay of this kind is to make sure you inject some personal feelings, thoughts and opinions. Comparisons are another good way to show that you're thinking at a higher level too.
hope this helped : )
Answer:
I could see a man pacing up and down, drenched and injured. At first when I saw him, he looked inebriated as he was losing his balance now and then. But as I went near him, I was sure it was the injury and not any substance that was causing him to tip.
Excuse me Sir! Can I help you? I asked him. He seemed to be in a state of shock. I tried calling out to him but he continued going round and round his car. I was not comfortable reaching out to him physically and I thought he might attack me in his condition. But there was no one I could call as my phone had switched off after getting wet in the rain. Also, if I went home, which was just across the street, my over-protective mother would panic and wouldn't let me help him. So there I was, feeling helpless and angry, because I decided to help someone without knowing what to do.
I remember standing in the rain for quite some time, staring at the man hovering around his car, feeling a while, he began to come back to
