Question

Write a short composition on your initial attempts at learning a skill. You could describe the challenges of learning to ride a bicycle or learning to swim. Make it as humorous as possible.

Answer 1

When I was a child, I always wondered how people could ride a bicycle. I first tried to learn in Class 5, but I fell and hurt my hands and legs. After that, I was afraid to ride again until I reached Class 8. I even wished that bicycles had three wheels so that balancing would be easier.

My cousin encouraged me to try again. He asked me to hold the handle, look straight ahead, and keep pedalling while he pushed the bicycle from behind. Although I fell many times, I did not give up.

After a week of practice, I finally learnt to balance and ride the bicycle on my own. I felt very happy and proud of myself.
