My favorite place is the beach, where I practice my hobby of fishing, which I love very much. I feel so happy from the start of the day that I start getting ready to go out for fishing and contemplate the beauty of nature.
I find it wonderful to have a happy and fun time at the same time. I can enjoy the beach and see the water and sunset. Also take advantage of the sun’s rays and get vitamin D. And also hunting and bringing out the energy inside me.
I liked these activities very much. I think I loved it because my father shared with me, and now my younger brother comes with me to learn from me. All this helps me to continue my hobby.
I often think of trying other ways to have fun like riding a fishing boat and spending time on it. I might do that in the future.

To
The Editor,
Dawn news
Subject: Request for immediate repair of deplorable roads.Respected Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed daily newspaper, I wish to highlight the deplorable condition of the main road in liberty market.
The road is full of pot holes since it was never repaired for several years. During the Monsoon season the road gets flooded like a river. During Winter it gets dry and dusty. We have no other option but to breathe the dusty air which causes respiratory diseases. There is also grave danger of road accidents which may cause lost of precious life.
The residents are suffering untold hardships due to the bad and dangerous condition of the road.
Therefore, I request the Municipal Corporation and the higher authorities to survey the road of liberty market and repair the roads at the earliest.
Yours sincerely,
X.Y.Z
