SAMPLE ANSWER 1

There have been many people I have met over the course of years but I remember one particular person I was amazed at. It was during our college days and he was our classmate, Avinash Singh Rathore. I remember him as one of the guys who would make amazing cartoons and had great writing skills.

We were partners in crime because of our consecutive roll numbers. So, we would sit at the last seat and then would write about the events happening in the class. We would make fictional characters and then write stories together. He would be the one who would make amazing cartoon and I would write down the conversation. By the end of the day, we would post it on facebook and have a great laugh!

The reason I really admired him was because he was very calm and yet so smart.His opinion on world was so different from others and I loved it.

The one person that comes to my mind when I hear “creative” is my father. Since my childhood, I have seen him fixing things that everyone rejects. Making new things from what is left over. According to him, nothing is ever wasted. Its utility to achieve one thing is over now and now can be used for something else.

Once a bed broke in our house and when everyone else was thinking of where should it be thrown my father made a beautiful desk out of the bed. I think creativity is not just about drawing things out or writing something beautiful. It is about leading a life in ways that are different from others. And on that, my father has surely led a beautiful life.

The reason I really admire him is because when everyone is busy in the hustle and bustle of life he is the one person who has remained calm and yet achieved things that left people awe struck.

There is so much that we can do and so much that we can learn, often from people who are very close to us. This time we are looking as some cue card questions about the things that you learnt from a person very close to you.

Describe something you learnt from a near one. You should say :

• what you learnt?
• how this became important later in your life
• have you taught it to someone?

also explain under what circumstances did you learnt this?

SAMPLE ANSWER 1

I believe most of the time ,the important things in life are taught by people who are very close to us. These are the people who help us in taking decisions. I have learnt how to type using both the hands on a computer by my father. I remember when other kids were busy making notes on the notebook, I was  making notes on my computer. Typing those chapters out has really helped me in later years when I joined the IT industry. When everyone is bothered about typing the write code I can give my entire attention to the code itself. I can make notes on computer in a better way then most people can make. This really helps me in my work.

Being a blogger not being bothered about how I am writing makes things so much more simpler for me. I have not entirely taught it to anyone, because it is all about practice. But, yes the basic techniques, whenever someone asks I feel good about telling them to people. I learnt typing because my father thought I should know it. Also, after a certain point of time I started liking it as well.

SAMPLE ANSWER 2

I remember there was a time in my life I was really bothered about lot of things. Not being able to do things had made me go really bizarre. I can recall calling my friend regularly and once I was very distressed. I told her how I lost my chance of buying a Mac and then lost my phone. How things were not going according to the plan and I couldn’t find an escape.

There was no lecture that I got from her but she told that no matter how much mess I am in she loves me and will always be my friend. Then she asked me to ask if these things really matter. I knew they don’t matter that much but yes too an extent they do. So, she again asked me if I can do something about them. For some I said yes, for rest I said no. She simply said,” things that you can do something about, just do something about it. The things you cannot, there is no point fretting over it”. Surely, this is something we all know but re learning it from a friend really helped me save myself from going crazy. I learnt that it is all about the present and life will find out its way.

I never taught this to anyone, because I think you can only learn it when the time is right and by only someone who is the right person for you.
