ADVANCE ENGLISH I HITCHHIKER


Dr. Eak Dawadi's class began at the usual time. Today we were taught Roald Dahl's short story "The Hitchhiker." The story tells how one guy dealt with getting a speeding ticket.

In the story, the narrator is driving to London when he stops to pick up a hitchhiker. The narrator explains that he always stops for hitchhikers because he used to be one and knows how difficult it can be.

The narrator and hitchhiker get to talking, and the hitchhiker becomes very secretive when the narrator asks what he does. However, the narrator doesn't push the issue; again, he remembers that an endless barrage of questions can be annoying for a hitchhiker. Eventually they discuss the narrator's nice car, and the narrator claims it can go 129 miles per hour. The hitchhiker says there is no way it can actually go that fast; the manufacturers probably lied to him.

This is a really interesting tale. It features complexity and story twists. It is intriguing and true. What can we take away from the narrative? The hitchhiker stands for the reality that, on occasion, aptitude triumphs over education. To be amazing in life, you don't need a remarkable degree. You may be deserving without having a glamorous job. If you want to achieve anything in life, you must put the utmost effort into everything you do.

 The pickpocket hitchhiker always had the upper hand on the narrator, who was a writer. The hitchhiker actually had the ability to influence the author. Even though he was a "criminal," he had values that helped him navigate life. Ridding the wealthy Undoubtedly, he is a morally dubious person. He does, however, have strong beliefs and shaky morals, and that is admirable. So, if I were the author, what would I have done? Although I doubt, I'm as intelligent as the hitchhiker, I must say I learned a lot from his character.

  ADVANCE ENGLISH I IS EVERYONE A SCIENTIST 13th December, 2022 For today's lesson, Mr. Eak divided the class into two groups and decided to hold a mock debate between the two groups on the topic "Everyone is a Scientist." Kashish's group opposed the move, while my group (group Aditya) supported it. This was a very engaging and productive session that enhanced both our knowledge and our ability to debate. In the debate session, the essay "Everyone Is a Scientist" discussed how everyone is a scientist in some sense because they are constantly learning and solving problems on their own. Additionally, he discusses how one may distinguish a true scientist from someone who does not have experience, knowledge, or competence in his field of inquiry. I agree with the main point of the essay. As each person finds new things every day of his or her life, I also think that everyone is or may be a scientist. Similar to how scientists approach problems, he follows the sa...

  ADVANCE ENGLISH I SCHOOL IS BAD FOR CHILDREN 13 September 2022 These days, Dr. Duwadi Sir is actively working on a new teaching strategy. He makes an effort to involve us in every step. He began class once more by playing a game reminiscent of "Chinese Whisper." He divided us up into groups and gave us the task of determining whether or not the school was terrible for kids. Our group discussed the benefits and drawbacks of education for kids. Later, sir made us read John Hault's essay, "School Is Bad for Children."   When the author says that going to school is terrible for kids, I do agree with him. The author claims that schools really injure kids by limiting their need for knowledge and changing their inherent perception, intelligence, confidence, and other characteristics. The author argues that while the majority of people believe that going to school or college is required to thrive in life, doing so actually undermines a child's intrinsic abilities....
