Answer in Brief

Solution

Yes, I like cartoons. The Tom and Jerry programme is my favourite cartoon. This classic series is beloved for its timeless humour, smart adventures, and chemistry between the iconic cat-and-mouse team. The combination of slapstick comedy and silent film-style storyline has charmed audiences for centuries, making it a beloved part of cartoon history.

It is widely believed that people do their best work when they are promised rewards for their achievements. Our schools and workplaces operate on the assumption that good work occurs when people are competing for grades, money, or recognition from others. In truth, the prospect of rewards provided by others can inhibit and limit people’s drive and creativity. People do their best work when motivated from within by their enjoyment of a particular challenge and their satisfaction in doing something well.
