My father was a medical professional working for a private company in Raniganj in West Bengal. The officers of the company were housed in individual bungalows inside a large campus. Our house was in a corner of the campus. The officer’s club was adjacent to the boundary wall of our garden. The compound was luxurious with green grass, colourful flowers and a host of tall and majestic trees. The seasonal vegetables in the kitchen gardens of the households and the magnificent trees constantly attracted squirrels and many species of birds; a group of langurs had even made their den in an aswatha tree nearby. They had all become a part and parcel of our existence and daily life. A small incident on a Saturday afternoon left a profound effect on me and unfolded before my eyes a whole new dimension to the wonders of God’s creation. It was a few days into the Puja vacation. Just like for any other child, the holidays provided an opportunity for me to become engrossed in various magazines and storybooks published specially for children in the festive season.

              The Twins
In form and feature, face and limb,
I grew so like my brother,
That folks got taking me for him,
And each for one another.
It puzzled all our kith and kin,
It reached a fearful pitch
For one of us was born a twin
Yet not a soul knew which.
 
One day, to make the matter worse,
Before our names were fixed,
As we were being washed by nurse,
We got completely mixed;
And thus, you see, by fate’s decree,
Or rather nurse’s whim,
My brother John got christened me,
And I got christened him.
 
This fatal likeness even dogged
My footsteps, when at school,
And I was always getting logged,
For John turned out a fool.
I put this question, fruitlessly,
To everyone I knew,
What would you do, if you were me,
To prove that you were you?’
 
Our close resemblance turned the tide
of my domestic life,
For somehow, my intended bridge
Became my brother’s wife.
In fact, year after year the same
Absurd mistakes went on,
And when I died, the neighbours came
And buried brother John.

Food neophobia – or fear of new foods – may lower the quality of a person’s dietary intake, and increase the risk of lifestyle disorders such as cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes. Food neophobia is an eating behaviour trait in which a person refuses to taste and eat food items or foods they are not familiar with. Researchers from University of Helsinki in Finland and University of Tartu in Estonia examined the independent impact of eating behaviour; and especially food neophobia, on dietary quality as well as lifestyle diseases and their risk factors. “The findings reinforce the idea that a versatile and healthy diet plays a key role, and even has an independent role in health,” said researcher Markus Perola. The study monitored individuals aged between 25 and 74 years during a seven-years follow-up. Food neophobia is common in children and older persons, in particular. Few studies have so far been carried out on food neophobia in the adult population. Traits similar to food neophobia, including picky and fussy eating, also occur in different age groups in the population. These eating behaviours may also have  a significant impact on dietary quality and subsequently health.

Ans:

              Importance of social and cultural activities in life’.

Respected principal, teachers and my dear friends. Today I am going to express my thoughts on the topic of Importance of social and cultural activities in life. I hope it will be benefitted & knowledgeable to you.

The importance of social and cultural activities is preparing students for real life and strengthening their personal skills. Social/cultural activities not only help us to identify themselves with the school & colleges but also assist students to develop themselves in a desired field and also improve skills such as organizational, presentation, leadership and interpersonal communication. As social and cultural activities are of paramount importance, the school encourages all extra-curricular activities that are both in line with the educational objectives of the institution and meet the needs of the students. Culture can be defined as the arts as well as the intangible shared beliefs, values, and practices of a community. Students participate in arts and culture at varying levels of skill and engagement. Some create, while others listen to, watch, teach, critique, or learn a cultural activity, art form, or expression. Some are professional artists, designers, and inventors, while others engage informally in expressive activities or create innovative tools, relationships, or products.

Wish you good day

Thank you very much.

                                        True Friend

Anil, the polio victim, and Sunil, the visually challenged man decided to hire a taxi to reach the place of worship. They had only

reached halfway when their taxi broke down. Since it was a quiet road, there was no other vehicle in sight. The driver of the taxi

told them that it would take him two hours to get the taxi running again. Anil started losing hope, but Sunil told his friend that

they will reach their destination on time. After waiting for half an hour, they didn’t see a single car pass by. The driver was not

even close to fixing the taxi. That’s when Sunil decided that he would get himself and Anil to the place of worship, no matter

what! Lenin helped Rahul out of the cab and carried him on his back. Anil was surprised by Sunil’s actions and told him that he

wouldn’t be able to carry him all the way to the place of worship. Sunil promised Anil that he will safely get him to his

destination. He simply asked Rahul to guide him as he could not see. And so, the friends continued their journey and in about an

hour, they reached their destination and paid their respects. Anil could not stop thanking Sunil for being so brave and carrying

him all the way. The story is a perfect example of, ‘Where there is a will, there is a way’.
