Q.18 

To
The Commissioner
Municipal Corporation Office
Raipur (CG)

Subject – Regarding poor sanitary conditions and mosquito menace

Respected Sir,

I would like to draw your kind attention towards the poor management of garbage prevalent in my area. I regret to inform you that the sanitary conditions of our locality are becoming bad to worse day by day. The concerned workers are paying no heed to it. They come here once in 15 days only. The garbage is lying on the roads for the rest of the days. The drainage system of this locality has broken down and we can see water spread on the road everywhere. This creates a major problem as it invites a lot of mosquito and causes ill-health of people of this locality. Gutters are not cleaned, drainage is choked and heaps of refuse can be seen here and there.

Therefore I request you to please look into the matter and take all necessary steps for solving these problems.

Hoping an early action.
Yours Faithfully
Vivek Jain

M. Hamel was a true French man. Teaching at Alsace for forty years, he had become a part of its people. He was an honest teacher. He did not blame his students alone for poor learning. He also held himself responsible for the same. He was very patriotic as he appealed to his countrymen to hold fast to their mother tongue to be free from the Prussians. According to him the French language was the most beautiful, the clearest and the most logical language in the world.

The Iron master and his daughter, Edla Willmanson both were agreeable and kind-hearted. However, the daughter was kinder than her father. Unlike her father she was a better judge of the human character. The Iron-master not only mistook the rattrap seller for an old companion, but he also failed to see through the lies that he told him. He was also not successful in persuading the vagabond to accompany him to his mansion. The Iron-master also lacked forbearance that her daughter had.

Q.33 The Maharaja of Pratibandapuram, Sir Jilani Jung Bahadur, had many titles and sub-names. However, he was popular as the Tiger King. The chief astrologer foretold that his death would come from a tiger.

Crown Prince Jung Jung Bahadur grew taller and stronger each day. An English governess took care of him and he was tutored in English by an Englishman. When he was twenty he took the reign in his hands.

The Maharaja continued his campaign of tiger hunting with rare single-mindedness. Within ten years he killed seventy tigers. He wanted to marry a girl of a state which had a large tiger population so that he was able to kill 99 tigers in all.

The modern world is full of insecurity, fear, war, worry, and stress. This is because the world has become competitive and people want to pull each other down. We fear failure. To overcome such insecurities, we must first accept that both good and bad come hand in hand. Hence, we need to create a balance between personal, professional, creative and economic spheres of life. It is important for us to spend quality time with family and friends, be creative in art, poetry or prose etc.
