At the Sunday fair
I usually go to the fair with my mother. There are lots of merchants to sell fruits, vegetables, dry fish, clothes etc. There we can buy things cheaper than from other shops.
In the evening lots of people come to the fair to buy goods. All the merchants have got huts to keep their goods. There are toy shops too. At the Sunday fair, my mother used to buy a small toy for me.

Life in the year 2050
The life of the human being has been changing from generation to generation. The environment around us is also being changed rapidly with the development of mankind. In the year 2050, the world will be a more exciting place with the new inventions of new vehicles, medicines, new food products and many others. The life of man may be quite different. It will be complicated and comfortable. The growth of the world population will be increased. People will destroy the green covering to solve the housing problem.
In the field of education, a number of changes may occur. The students of 2050 will not learn eight or nine subjects in school. They will not be taught the subjects like History, Social Studies, Art and Music. Only one subject like Computer Studies or Technology will be introduced for the schools. As a result the people of the future will lose the values and feelings like love, kindness, hospitality and affection.
We will be able to see a big change in the system of transport. It will be more comfortable, safer and quicker. There may be new transport systems to reach a place at a long distance of hundreds of miles away, within a few minutes. There may be new taxi services driven by robots.
