Ans:                        A DAY IN MY SCHOOL LIFE 
15th of March was a very memorable day for me. We went for a school trip to Ayub Park. First of all we went to the school ground for attendance. The teacher gave us name tags and we seated in the school bus. 
Then the school bus left school around 9 am. It was really fun riding in the school bus. We sang many poems and songs along with our teachers. We arrived at the park. It was a pleasant windy day. The teachers allowed us to play in the lush green lawns of the park and take swings as well. It was so much fun.
After a while we went for boating in the lake. We could also see small fish in the clear water. We all enjoyed boating. Then all of us gathered under a shady tree and had lunch. 

Our teacher specially told us not to litter the park. After that we went to the zoo. There were many animals and birds in the zoo. As it was getting late, our teachers called us back and we got in the bus. It was a fun day and will always be remembered.

Question #7: Read the following poem and underline the words that rhyme together. Also give a suitable title to the poem. 

Answer :
Melvin the Mummy, who lived near the Nile,
Had worked as a mummy for more than a while.
For mummies can go their entire careers 

Without a vacation for thousands of years.
He guarded the pyramids day after day

 To frighten the burglars and bandits away. 
Which meant, as he stood watching over the pharaohs.
He often got shot at with bullets and arrows.


His job was so stressful; the pay was so poor,

But, still, Melvin stayed and protected the door.

Until he got sick of his sad situation

And knew that he needed to take a vacation.
His crypt was so dark and so cold and so clammy.  
He packed up his swimsuit and flew to Miami.
He thought he would stay there for just a few days.  
Enjoying the beach and absorbing some ravs.
But, sadly, poor Melvin would never return.
And this is a lesson all mummies should learn:  
Don’t take any trips or, like Melvin, you’ll find  
Vacations make mummies relax and unwind. 
TITLE:
Mummy’s Vacation
