उत्तर
- My school is the best location in my life. I like my school because the teachers are friendly to me. My school plans monthly entertainment events. I have a lot of pals at school. My school has all the necessary sports, studies, and other activities facilities. These sports not only help us stay active, but they also improve our stamina and coordination. My school has a large playground, where I play with my friends. I appreciate all of my teachers. They are friendly and polite when fixing our errors. They have never been hard on us. So, we have always tried to study and write our tests successfully. Our institution is attempting to take a different approach to encouraging studies on children. Students at our school are never required to study to get through. My school tries to create summer camps where we can all go together. Summer camps are also organized based on student requests. My school is the only one that is nice to visit over the summer holidays. It's also important to realize that not everyone has the opportunity to receive an education. If given this opportunity, be grateful and active to improve yourself.
- I always look forward to spending my days at school. I enjoy attending school because it allows me to meet new people, engage with teachers, and learn new things. Being at school, it seems like friends and relatives always accompany me. In addition, it functions like a family, providing me with education and other essential abilities. It's a place where I can learn, laugh, smile, play, and enjoy. It elicited strong emotions in me for positive reasons, and I will be forever thankful to my school and outstanding professors. My school is also a beautiful location where I can develop my personality and increase my intelligence through education. Apart from academics and tests, my school improves my music, athletics, and general knowledge education. I was taught all life skills, such as being calm in stressful situations and assisting others.
- I dislike it when every teacher assigns homework, projects, and tests, and you spend the entire day working on them due to deadlines. I am unwilling to get up so early; it has often been encouraged that the school day starts later, particularly for teenagers. In school, a restriction of independence frequently leads to feelings of loneliness.
- Teachers used to take tests every Monday, and I think tests should be conducted four times a month. Because of examinations, we face less difficulty studying. And we used to pass the exams with good marks.

Certainly anyone who insists on condemning all lies should think about what would happen if we could reliably tell when our family, friends, colleagues, and government leaders were deceiving us. It is tempting to think that the world would become a better place without the deceptions that seem to interfere with our attempts are genuine communication. On the other hand, perhaps there is such a thing as too much honesty. - Adapted from Allison Kornet, "The Truth About Lying"
