उत्तर
Yesterday, I was absent from school. I decided to ask Rima and other classmates about the lessons taught by teachers. As soon as I uttered, "I wanted to ask you about the English assignment," Rima and her friends burst out laughing. At first, I didn't understand why they were laughing. Then Rima started mocking me, repeating the word 'aks'. Other girls giggled and looked at me with contempt. I felt very bad but I requested Rima to teach me English, as she was good at English and its pronunciation. But she told me rudely that as I belong to the countryside, I am incapable of speaking proper English. There was a lump in my throat as I could not bear this humiliation. I wanted to retort, but I couldn't find the right words. I burst into tears and decided to run away from there.
