Describe an energetic person that you know. I know a lot of energetic people but the person who I find to be most energetic is none other than my mother. There are many reasons why I find her to be very energetic. Firstly, she does so many things in a single day. If I did them all, it would take me less 2-3 days. Firstly, she gets up 5am and then takes the dogs out for a walk. Then she comes back and feeds the dog. After that, she prepares breakfast for the whole family. Then she gets ready and goes to work. She is a generalist so her job is also very stressful. She comes back home at around 7pm. Then she prepares dinner. She works a lot of other household clothes to like washing, cleaning, folding clothing and plucking them in carbots. I don’t know when she does them and many times I take them for granted but if she is not come for even one day. It again reminds me all of those chores she does. Sometimes she even needs to go to the hospital and night because of energetics. Secondly, she somehow finds time for all her hobbies in spite of being too busy. She does skitting, swinging, painting, origami and so on. Every year she makes 4 or 5 sweaters. Our whole home is decorated with handmade artwork. Thirdly, I find her so energetic because I have never seen resting or wasting time during the day. She is always doing something even when she is watching tv. She is kiting side by side.

Describe a historical place you visited recently. I know a lot about historical places, but the one I find most fascinating is none other than the ancient city of Pompeii. There are many reasons why I find it to be very captivating. Firstly, the preservation of the city is remarkable. Walking through the streets, you can see the ruins of homes, shops, and public buildings that date back to 79 AD. The way the volcanic ash preserved the city gives you a unique glimpse into daily life during that time. Secondly, the frescoes and mosaics found in the homes are stunning. They depict scenes of mythology and everyday life, showcasing the artistry of the people who lived there. It’s incredible to think that these artworks have survived for centuries. Thirdly, I find the history of Pompeii so intriguing because of the tragic event that led to its preservation. The eruption of Mount Vesuvius buried the city, and the stories of the people who lived there are both heartbreaking and fascinating. Walking through the ruins, you can almost feel the presence of those who once inhabited the city. Lastly, I appreciate how the site is maintained today. The efforts to preserve and educate visitors about Pompeii's history are commendable. It’s a place that not only tells a story of the past but also serves as a reminder of the power of nature. Visiting Pompeii was an unforgettable experience that deepened my appreciation for history.
