A Noble Deed

 By: Unknown    Monday, December 22, 2014  A Noble Deed, English, Essays, ETC, Famou, Free All Essays, Garmmers, School Essay   No comments

v One, day, during the last term-holidays, i took my bicycle and went to ride round the town. As I was cycling along the road in front of the Local General Hospital, I saw a horrible sight. A station wagon which was coming towards the town from the  opposite direction suddenly swerved to the right and crashed into a tree by the roadside. The driver of the vehicle, a young boy, was seriously wounded. The passengers, all young boys and girls, escaped unhurt.

v As the accident had occurred right in front of the hospital, the boy was quickly taken to the 'casualty ward'. Out of curiosity to know his fate, I accompanied the friends of the wounded boy. The attendants and the doctors on duty decided, after examining him thoroughly, that there was a chance of his surviving his wounds and injuries, if blood transfusion could be given to him.

v They tested his blood. Enquiries from the 'Blood Bank' at the hospital revealed that there was no stock of the particular group of blood could be contacted at such a short notice.

v The doctors then asked the friends of the wounded boy, who was unconscious to offer their own blood to save I him. A heavy silence fell upon them. Most of them lowered their heads and left the ward one after another.One of those left behind pleaded illness. Another said that his doctor had prohibited him to give blood. Only one of them did not refuse to give blood but it so happened that his blood was not of the right group. The doctor shook his head in despair.

v Taking pity on the unfortunate boy, I offered my blood. They took a sample of it, tested it, and found it to be of the required type. Then they led me to another room, where they took the required quantity of blood from my body. When I had sufficiently recovered from the temporary weakness caused by the loss of blood I returned home.

v A day or two later, my father read in a newspaper the account of the accident. It ended with a note saying that the wounded boy was then well on the road to recovery and that he owed his life to a stranger who had voluntarily donated blood to save him. His parents were trying to contact him in order to reward him handsomely.

v When I told my father that I was that, stranger' be was very proud of me,' and congratulated me on the praise worthy deed I had done. Of course, he forbade me to accept any reward for it.

A Nightmare

 By: Unknown    Wednesday, December 10, 2014  A Nightmare, English, Essays, ETC, Famou, Free All Essays, Garmmers, School Essay   No comments

v Last night I 'accompanied one of my friends to see an Indian film. The story was about a magician who used his knowledge only to trouble other people. He had a host of witches, demons, and other supernatural beings at his command. At a signal from him, mountains were broken asunder, and a cloudless sky sent down rain in torrents. At a touch, he turned living beings into stones' or changed their appearance altogether. A beautiful girls who refused, to marry him was changed into an ugly witch. He made her sit upon a broomstick and fly with him wherever he went.

( www.EssayinEnglishForFree.Blogspot.com )

v Returning home, I took a heavy meal and straightway went to bed. In my sleep I was carried by four demons to a lovely country. I was taken to the king who was then holding his court. He must be at least 100 feet tall and rather too broad for his height. His ears were as big as the wings of a large aero plane. Each of his nostrils were like a room. His teeth were long and sharp like swords,

( www.EssayinEnglishForFree.Blogspot.com )

v He was talking to his courtiers and enjoying a 'light' meal. Heaped in front of him were about 20 carcasses of various animals. Some of these animals were still alive. It did not require much effort on his part to lift an ox by the tail and place it into his cavernous mouth. Once the animal had been safely deposited there, his teeth went into action, and, in no time cut it into hundreds of pieces, large and small. These he swallowed in a gulp. It took him hardly five minutes to finish his meal, which he washed down with a tank full of wine. I trembled to see all these actions, but was relieved to learn from one of the demons, who could speak my language that the king did not like to eat human flesh. It was too soft and was considered nutritious enough.

( www.EssayinEnglishForFree.Blogspot.com )

v The king fell asleep as soon as the meal was over. A demon lifted me high in his hand and said, You will now enter the mouth of his majesty.He cannot keep his mouth shut while asleep. Flies and other insects fly in and disturb him. Handing over a lamp and a broom to me, he continued. You will find your way with this lamp, and use this broom to sleep away all insects; you will be severely dealt with.

( www.EssayinEnglishForFree.Blogspot.com )

v Holding the lamp and broom in the hand I entered the mouth of the demon king. I took up my position at the entrance to the king's throat. He snored very loudly and when he breathed, air passed in and out of his belly with such terrific speed that once or twice I was almost blown off my feet. When he breathed in, large swarms of insects were helplessly sucked into this mouth. They were usually large for example; the flies were as large as tennis ball. I had a hard time killing them or push.ing them out of his mouth. Soon I was completely exhausted and felt so week that I could no longer stay on my feet. The king too, appeared to be breathing faster than ever. Once when I was a bit off, guard, he breathed so heavily that I was carried by the wind right out of his mouth and catapulted over the walls of the palace. As I was falling, I cried out as loudly as I could.

v I was awakened by my own cries. I found myself lying on the floor beside my bed. My parents and all my brothers and sisters were standing around me.

A Night In A Deserted House

 By: Unknown    Sunday, December 07, 2014  English, Essays, ETC, Famou, Free All Essays, New Sides, School Essay   No comments

v As I was returning home after visiting a relative in an out of the way kampong one afternoon a few years ago, it began to rain heavily. My way lay along the edge of a rubber state, which had been deserted, being too old to be managed profitably. Presumably it had to be burnt down and replanted. There was a two -storey bungalow in the estate. As I approached the building I found that it had been deserted too.

(www.EssayinEnglishForFree.Blogspot.com )

v Pushing my bicycle into the porch I rested it against a wall and entered the deserted house. One of the rooms upstairs still had all its doors and windows intact its floor too, was cleaner than that of any other room in the house. Here I took off my clothes and squeezed as much water out of them as I could. Putting them on again, I sat down, waiting for the rain to stop or abate sufficiently to enable me to resume my journey.

(www.EssayinEnglishForFree.Blogspot.com )

v I waited there till well after sunset, but the rain still continued. Ultimately I lost all hope of returning home that night. As I sat there brooding over my hopeless position. I fell asleep. I did not know how long I had slept but when I woke, the rain had stopped, though the sky was still overcast with clouds. There was a strong wind, which occasionally blew with such fury that it crashed against the doors and windows of the house with a terrific noise.

(www.EssayinEnglishForFree.Blogspot.com )

v I lay awake on the floor, when I heard men's voices in the distance. I became quite alarmed when I remembered that the surrounding jungle was a frequent haunt of gangsters and criminal wanted by the police. Some such 'bad character might be heading for that house for taking shelter there for the night. Alternatively, they might be policemen in search of some wanted criminals. What would they take me to be on finding me there The third possibility was that they were some travelers who, like me, had been delayed by rain The only fear from that source was that they might take away my bicycle. Luckily for me nobody approached the house.

(www.EssayinEnglishForFree.Blogspot.com )

v Presently, I heard the roar of a tiger besides this there were the howls of many other wild animals. Every moment I expected one or another of these animals to push open the door of my room. Later that night, the wild animals stopped howling. Now the only noise I heard was that made by the strong wind opening and shutting the doors and windows in all parts of the house. This reminded me of ghosts, for I had heard that ghosts usually haunt large deserted buildings. I had to stay awake in that dark room with its doors and windows securely bolted praying that the morning might find me safe and sound.

(www.EssayinEnglishForFree.Blogspot.com )

v My happiness knew no bounds when the night was over, and I was able to resume my journey home.
