Grandparents are the blessings from God. They highly contribute to shaping the lives of their grandchildren. Here I would like to talk about a job my grandmother did.


Whose job it was?

My grandmother was a very ambitious lady in her time. She always dared to learn something new. Her goal was to never sit idle at home though she engaged herself in doing a job.


What job it was?

She was appointed as a vice principal in a renowned school named Sacred Heart World School in my hometown. She had a master's degree in English.


How does he or she carry out the job?

My grandmother carried her job very well. She was quite precise about the time and would always make sure that she did her work in an apple-pie manner. Her only aim was to spread her knowledge amongst students of her school. She wrote many books relative to her own life experiences. She was a disciplined woman who encouraged the children to be successful and dedicated towards their goals.


Explain what you have learnt from it.

Apart from being a teacher, she was a guide in my life who taught me how to be honest with my work. I saw her how hardworking she was. I read her books and got to know how beautifully she mentioned her life lessons as I too am a bibliophile person. Her work motivated me every time to work through my full potential to lead a better life ahead. She would balance everything in her life and be like a mirror that reflected her good personality traits that other people want to see in themselves.

Part - 3 - All Cue Cards

Part 3 belongs to all new cue cards from September to December 2022. We have written the answers on our own except for one topic. Hence, we hold the copyright status of the answers written by us. 1.  Describe an object you find particularly beautiful (For example, a painting, sculpture, piece of jewellery/furniture, etc.). 1. Do   you   think   there   are   more   beautiful   things   now   than  in  the   past? In my opinion, traditional art and sculptures are much more captivating. I think in the past, it was easier for artists to find shoppers in the form of kings and nobles and they could focus on their art without any financial worries. However, today it is much harder to earn money as an artist. The art being made today also reflects that – it is done more as a hobby rather than as a profession and the works produced are far behind those of the past. Moreover, nowadays artists rely on machine work instead of handmad...

  Fast Food and Break Fast What do you have for breakfast? I prefer to have my favourite food items during the first meal of the day. Usually, I like wheat bread with freshly cooked vegetables like Okra, Turnip, beans and cauliflower. Along with this, I love to take a cup of tea. However, during weekends, my mother cooks stuffed bread for me, and amongst all these bread types, my favourite one is potato-filled bread with curd and homemade butter.  Do you eat fast food? Yes, I do, but once a fortnight, I prefer to have it. It is owing to the bad cholesterols present in junk food materials. In this category, I find cheese burst pizza, garlic bread and white sauce Italian pasta mouth-watering.  What are the different kinds of fast food in your country? Name them. India has an ocean of fast food materials. For instance, Chinese, Italian and American fast materials are the most popular ones in India. Moreover, we have traditional fast foods as well.  The first one is a sa...

  CHALLENGES What subject do you think is the most challenging at school? I believe history is one of the most challenging subjects at schools since it is an uphill task for many school-goers to remember historical events and their dates. I still remember not being able to grab proper information about ancient history and the significance of historical monuments.  Do you like to challenge yourself? Yes, I love to challenge myself, which motivates me to accomplish my task with full enthusiasm and concentration. Moreover, it allows exploring more and encourages us to try beyond the limit.  Do you like to live a life that has a lot of challenges? Yes, I like a life having various challenges since it is the best way to come out of my comfort zone and face the difficulties in life. Moreover, we have to work hard to overcome challenges owing to the fact we can get the desired target.  Challenges help us discover new skills, jump into new experiences, and boost our well-bei...
