उत्तर
| Guide (Me): | Good morning! Welcome to Agra. I hope you're ready for an exciting day of exploring. |
| Foreigner: | Good morning! Yes, I'm really looking forward to it. I've heard so much about the beauty and history of this place. |
| Guide (Me): | Absolutely! Agra is rich in history and culture. Our first stop will be the Taj Mahal, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Are you familiar with its history? |
| Foreigner: | I know it's a symbol of love, built by Emperor Shah Jahan for his wife Mumtaz Mahal. It's one of the reasons I wanted to visit India. |
| Guide (Me): | That's right! It's a masterpiece of Mughal architecture. Wait till you see it at sunrise; it's truly breathtaking. |
| Foreigner: | I can't wait! What else will we see today? |
| Guide (Me): | After the Taj Mahal, we'll visit the Agra Fort, another UNESCO World Heritage Site. It has a rich history and offers a stunning view of the Taj Mahal from its walls. |
| Foreigner: | Sounds amazing. I've heard Indian food is fantastic too. Any recommendations for lunch? |
| Guide (Me): | Definitely! We'll have lunch at a local restaurant. You must try the Mughlai cuisine, especially the kebabs and biryani. Agra is also famous for its sweet, Petha. |
| Foreigner: | Oh, I love trying new foods. What about the local language? I only speak English. |
| Guide (Me): | No worries! Most people here understand English, especially in tourist areas. But if you want to learn a few Hindi phrases, I'm here to help. |
| Foreigner: | That would be great! How do you say 'thank you' in Hindi? |
| Guide (Me): | It's 'Dhanyavaad'. And if you want to greet someone, you can say 'Namaste'. |
| Foreigner: | Dhanyavaad! This is going to be an unforgettable experience. |
| Guide (Me): | Absolutely! Let's make the most of your visit. If you have any questions or need anything, feel free to ask. |

Miss Fernandes is our new class teacher. She is slim and fit even at the age of 50. With her grey hair, spectacles, and plain formal clothes, she looks so strict! But we discovered that her classes can be great fun. We begin each class with a simple two-minute game or activity. Today we had to write as many words beginning with 'a' as we could, within 60 seconds. I wrote 50! I got a pot on my back for making 'the best effort'! I feel on top of the world. |
