Question

. You have been asked to speak on the topic “Travelling for pleasure” in the morning assembly of your school. Write your speech in 150-200 words.

Answer 1

Answer:

Travelling has great educational value. It increases the frontiers of our knowledge. While travelling, a person comes across people of different races, religions, castes, regions, etc. He also visits different places. Each place has a historical importance of its own. Many colleges and schools arrange educational tours for the benefit of their students. Young boys and girls of western countries have a great passion for travelling.

Travelling is also a source of great pleasure. It gives us respite from our dull and dreary routine. It relieves us of our worries. It affords us an opportunity to meet our near and dear ones who may be far away from us. It enables us to meet new people and know their customs, habits and traditions. We can also know the different kinds of food eaten by people belonging to different regions.

Of course, we can get to know about the people of other countries by reading travel books. But when we personally visit these countries, we can get first-hand knowledge of such countries and their people. Knowledge thus obtained by visits has a personal touch. It lasts longer than the knowledge attained by books.
