Question

Essay: (210-250 words)

Answer 1

Answer:

A hot summer is more a punishment than a gift. The unbearable heat makes us uncomfortable and lethargic.

The period between dawn and sunrise is a lovely sight. The twilight scene is most appealing. The calm and serene atmosphere, the cool and bracing climate and the refreshing breeze soothe our spirits. The sweet chirping sound of birds appears to be the most enchanting.

After some time, we can see the golden disc of the rising sun in the East. It is slightly hot. But as the day advances, temperatures keep increasing. People who are out, begin to come back in order to avoid the oppressive heat. At noon the sun is red hot. People are hardly seen outside. Farmers stop ploughing their fields during these hot hours. The doors and windows of the houses are closed. People sit in their rooms, which are kept cool by fans, desert coolers and air conditioners. Some have to go to the offices. Their clothes become wet with perspiration. One feels very uneasy due to this.

The afternoon is the hottest. The piercing rays of the sun fall on the ground. The heat is unbearable and oppressive during the afternoon.

Modern science has made summer very comfortable. We can even enjoy the luxury of controlling the temperature in our room all round the year.

But in the evening, when the sun begins to set, people again come out. Gardens, public parks and city centres again hum with activity. Then people relish ice creams and cold drinks.
