Republic Day Celebrations at Mahatma Gandhi Vidyalaya
Mumbai, 27th January 2014
The 66th Republic Day was celebrated with a lot of fanfare and grandeur at Mahatma Gandhi Vidyalaya yesterday. Students and teachers from all the classes participated in the plethora of cultural programs which took place in the school premises. The day began with the hoisting of the national flag by our Principal Dr. Mehta at 7 am. The entire assembly of students sang the national anthem immediately after the flag hoisting. The school band marched past the ground playing drums and trumpets. The members of the band were dressed in the colours of the school’s emblem and wore attractive sashes and headgears.
The cultural events were kick started with the dance competition where students competed with one another in the solo and group dance categories. Miss Umang from Class 9 won in the solo category and Class 6 won for their colourful rendition of a folk song. After the cultural events, an environment exhibition was held where the students displayed various models on environmental awareness and solar-powered gadgets. The model for a solar-powered garbage disposal won the first prize. After a short prayer, the Principal gave a speech on the empowerment of the youth. The event concluded with a group song by the teachers. It was truly a spectacular day for all of us at Mahatma Gandhi Vidyalaya.

Mother: Looks like you had a lot of fun at school today. How were the Republic Day celebrations?
Me: It was truly spectacular mother. Our Principal, Mrs. Mehta, hoisted the national flag at 7 am and we sang the national anthem. Soon after that, the school band marched by wearing colourful clothes and sashes.
Mother: Did they play any instruments?
Me: Yes they did play drums and trumpets. A girl from my class won the first prize in the solo dance competition. She performed beautifully.
Mother: Now tell me about the environment exhibition you were preparing for.
Me: Oh yes! I had been working on my exhibit for the past three weeks. As you already know, it was a model for a solar-powered garbage disposal. The bin is covered with solar powered cells which convert the kitchen waste into energy. The competition was very tough but the judge somehow loved my idea as it was original.
Mother: Does that mean you won the prize?
Me: Yes mother, I wanted it to be a surprise for you. The trophy is in my bag.
Mother: Oh I can’t wait to see it!
Me: The day couldn’t have ended better. Our Principal also gave a speech on the empowerment of the youth and cited my example as an ideal youth who would do great things in the future. After a small group song, the program came to an end. I truly had a great time today!

Read the following extract and convert it into a dialogue between Roma and Herman, the narrator in about 8 to 10 sentences:
[You may begin with: (After dinner by the shore at Coney Island Roma and Herman started back by Sid's car.)
Roma: Where were you during the war, Herman?]
The four of us drove out to Coney Island. Roma was easy to talk to, easy to be with. Turned out she was wary of blind dates too! We were both just doing our friends a favor. We took a stroll on the boardwalk, enjoying the salty Atlantic breeze, and then had dinner by the shore. I couldn't remember having a better time.
We piled back into Sid's car, Roma and I sharing the backseat. As European Jews who had survived the war, we were aware that much had been left unsaid between us. She broached the subject. "Where were you during the war?'' she asked softly.
'The camps,' I said, the terrible memories still vivid, the irreparable loss. I had tried to forget. But you can never forget.
She nodded. "My family was hiding on a farm in Germany,
not far from Berlin," she told me. "My father knew a priest, and
he got us Aryan papers."
I imagined how she must have suffered too, tear, a constant
companion. And yet here we were both survivors, in a new world.
"There was a camp next' to the farm." Roma continued, "I
saw a boy there and I would throw him apples every day".
Read the following extract and convert it into a dialogue between Rosalind and Orlando:
[You may begin with: Rosalind: Dear Orlando, it's better not to fight with Charles.]
Next day, the wrestling match was arranged to take place in front of the Duke's palace. Celia and Rosalind happened to be there when the Duke and his lords arrived, so they decided to stay and watch the fight. Frederick spoke to Orlando and tried to persuade him not to fight the Wrestler, but Orlando was determined.
At last, Frederick turned to Rosalind and Celia and said: 'Speak to him, ladies; see if you can persuade him.'
Charles had just fought three other young men and had nearly killed them. It seemed certain that Orlando would be treated in the same way. And so the two girls spoke to the tall, good-looking young man, begging him not to fight. 'You have seen cruel proof of this man's strength', said Celia. 'We pray you for your own sake to give up this fight. Do not run such a risk!'
'Please do what we ask, young sir,' said Rosalind. 'No one will call you a coward: We will ask the Duke to stop the wrestling.' But Orlando answered: 'Please do not be angry if I refuse to do what you ask. It is not easy to say no to ladies who are so beautiful and gentle. But let your fair eyes and gentle wishes go with me to my trial. No one will be sorry if I am killed, because I have no friends to love me. I fill up a place in the world which may be better filled by another man if I leave it empty.'
