They occupy their seats and pray to God for an easypaper. Examination hall is a place of joy for a few and an object of fear for many.

Street hawkers are found in almost every corner of the city lanes. He is common feature of our life. He moves from place to place selling his goods. The biggest danger of eating the food that street hawkers sell is in the fact that the constant exposure to the heat and dust of the road side makes this food unhygienic to eat. It is sad that the street hawkers are not provided any space by the government to sell their food at. If they had a covered area where they served their food, the cleanliness of their food items could be maintained. A hawker saves us a lot of trouble. He sells things that we need at our door-steps. Sometimes a hawker rings his bell to announce his arrival. Food sold by hawkers is often tasty and eating there saves time too. The food they sell is generally tasty. But more...

A juggler is familiar in a big city. The juggler is very popular among the small children. They go from place to place to show their tricks. They perform by the roadside, so that they attract a large number of people. He is a poor. He begs money from the people. He wears a turban. His clothes are very dirty. He keeps a boy to help in his work. He carries a basket and a number of other items for the show. He has a small stick in his hand. He calls it a magic stick.  Last Sunday, I watched a juggler's show. A large number of children had gathered around him. He took a plastic ball and threw it into air and made it revolve in a circle. And when it came down it was not a ball but an apple! The juggler is loved by all children.
