A Visit to a Market Short Essay

Market Place

Market Place :Market Place  Last Sunday, I accompanied my mother to the central market to buy things that she needed for Diwali.When we arrived at the market, the whole market was well decorated and illuminated. All the shopkeepers had decorated their shops beautifully to welcome the customers.

Coming to the market simply before a festive season wasn’t a nice expertise. everybody had to shop for one thing or the opposite. Therefore, the prices of most commodities were quite high. We made our way carefully through various sections buying lights, diyas, decorative items, rangoli, flowers, etc. We also bought lots of sweets and another foodstuff.It was a crowded market. There were many street hawkers on both sides of the street. They were shouting and approaching us with requests to buy their stuff. It was getting difficult for us to avoid them.



The shopping bags we were carrying got heavier and heavier. So my mother asked me to stand at a corner with the bags. She instructed me not to move or talk to strangers. The crowd got thicker and thicker. Standing at the corner, I was observing the market. The noise and heat were increasing. I observed many parents facing difficulties in pacifying their children who were getting impatient in the crowded market.

A Visit to a Market Short Essay

In the market, I noticed ladies who were hurrying up as it was getting late. Some people were bargaining while others were just looking at things and moving on. There were so many fancy things that were attracting me. I was waiting for my mother to come. Soon she came with some more bags in her hands. I told her about the things that I wanted to buy.

We then moved on to the other street. From there, we bought a few gifts to be given to our family and friends on Diwali. Then we came to the street that was full of food outlets. We had some snacks and fresh juice. This made us feel fresh and energetic. We then went to see other shops selling decorative items. We bought different types of lamps and lights, artificial flowers, and many other things.

As we were almost done with all the shopping, we started walking towards our car. On the way too, my mother kept buying small stuff which she liked. We had so many bags with us that we couldn’t hold them all together. We kept the bags in the car and started driving back home. It took us a long time to get out of the market as we got stuck in a traffic jam.

My mother and I were completely exhausted. On reaching home, we breathed a sigh of relief.

Stella [2.4K]

Incomplete question. The missing part read;

In sentence 19 (reproduced below), the writer wants to change the conclusion by adding a direct quotation that both reinforces the main argument of the passage and places that argument in a broader context.

In 2013, President Obama acknowledged that people have a sentimental attachment to the penny.

Which version of the underlined text best accomplishes this purpose?

Answer:

<u>penny but argued that the coin is a sign of government inefficiency, calling it “a good metaphor for some of the larger problems that we’ve got.”</u>

Explanation:

So the sentence after the changes would read;

"In 2013, President Obama acknowledged that people have a sentimental attachment to the penny <em>but argued that the coin is a sign of government inefficiency, calling it “a good metaphor for some of the larger problems that we’ve got.”</em>

Note here that by using this particular sentence, <u>the writer could easily reinforce the main argument by means of that direct quotation of what </u><u>President Obama</u><u> said.</u>

Consider Gregor as a person. What was life like for him before his metamorphosis, at home, and on the job? In what ways do you t
Andrew [12]

Answer and Explanation:

Gregor is the main character in the book "The Metamorphosis", by Franz Kafka.

Consider Gregor as a person. What was life like for him before his metamorphosis, at home, and on the job?

Gregor leads a boring and exhausting life as a traveling salesman. He hates his job and despises his boss. The only reason why he does not quit is the fact that he is working to help his parents pay off their debts. But even though he is such a filial son, life at home is not any more interesting. Gregor is not specially loved or cherished.

In what ways do you think Gregor was like a "bug" even before his metamorphosis?

As we can see, Gregor is insignificant - like a bug. His life seems to have little purpose other than suffering of boredom and daydreaming about quitting his job. He has nothing to live for and no one who absolutely cares about him. Thus, in a way, he is already like a bug. We often notice there is a bug around. We take a look at it and then ignore it, since it is of no importance to us. It seems that this is how the other characters feel about Gregor.

"The Metamorphosis" is generally read as an allegorical tale, meaning that the events symbolize a more general human condition in modern society. What do you think Gregor's transformation represents?

His transformation represents what life is like to most of us in modern society - meaningless. We do not work to live, but live to work. Instead of being perceived as complex, colorful human beings, full of dreams, feelings, ideas, and purposes, we are regarded as machines, only valuable when we can do our jobs, but readily disposed of when we cannot.

What does Anne’s change in point of view reveal to us, the reader, about her personality? Make sure to use A.C.E Book: The Diary
sesenic [268]

Anne Frank's 'Diary of a Young girl', starts from her teenage, where she is in a state of mind that tries to explore only those elements that interest her. As she progresses in writing her diary, the entries we read differ a lot when compared to the beginning ones.  

Explanation:

Anne Frank's ideas and thoughts while she started writing her diary are way different and simple from the ones that we read in the middle and towards the end. The amount of learning, experiences, trauma, failures and success that she describes while she wrote her entries makes readers feel that it is not just a diary entry but a part of her soul talking to the reader, in a hope to make herself feel better.

Anne Frank's thoughts on Politics, on relationships, on Journalism, on Teaching and on aspects that relate to life as a natural part for every human being changed in the course of her entries. This 'change' as a part of her life can be called as 'improvement' or also called as 'maturity'.

Her attitude towards how war can destroy lives and take on peace, eventually moving to journalism as a subject of choice and view on political aspects explain readers about her growth in all aspects towards the end of the diary.
