Attempt the following question in 100 – 150 words.
What do you think about Anne’s talent for writing essays which she wrote convincingly when punished by the teacher?
उत्तर
I think Anne was extremely talented when it came to writing. Anne won over her math teacher with the help of her three essays. Mr. Keesing, her Mathematics teacher was upset with Anne because she was very talkative. He assigned her extra homework, an essay on the subject 'A Chatterbox'. The task at hand was to come up with convincing arguments to prove the necessity of talking and after devoting much thought to the subject, Anne wrote about how talking was a female trait, that she would try her utmost to keep it under control but could not guarantee success This made Mr. Keesing laugh instead of being angry and he assigned her a second essay on 'An Incorrigible Chatterbox'. Anne finished that essay too with her delightful sense of humor in aid but these essays did not succeed in Mr. Keesing's objective to stop Anne from talking so much. Therefore, he told her to write another essay entitled, 'Quack, Quack, Quack,' said Mistress Chatterback'. But, Anne turned in a poem on how a mother duck and a father swan with three baby ducklings who were bitten to death by the father because they quacked too much. This won over Mr. Keesing completely and he read out the poem in Anne's class and other classes, adding along with his comments. From then on, Anne was allowed to talk and no extra assignments came her way. It resulted in Mr. Keesing opening up and even cracking jokes in class. The entire incident proves that she had good writing and persuasion skills.
