Trang 1My favorite subject
As a secondary student, I had to study many subjects but my
friends used to advise me to concentrate more and more on
Science and Mathematics But somehow or other, English has
become my favorite subject My friends, relatives and even my
parents were advising me that there is nothing new to learn in the
English Language and I was wasting my time on English
Whatever the advice may be, English is still my favorite subject
Reading as a hobby itself is a great pleasure English has a
Trang 2wealth of literature unsurpassed by any other language Studying
more about Shakespeare, Shaw, Keat and Hardy gives me an
insight into human nature I have come to realize how a man
would react to a given set of circumstances or actions The more I
read, the more I learn in between the lines
My love for the subject has inspired me so much that I may one
day write my own play As a scholar rightly pointed out that
reading enables man, makes one more tolerant to the follies of
others and bridges the gap between countries and cultures, I
hope that it will do so for me too
Trang 3What is your favorite subject and why?
My favorite subject is Art
It is my favorite subject simply because I love to draw Ever since
I was a toddler I remember picking up crayons and colored
pencils to scribble on books, pieces of paper and walls Of course
there were instances where I had to be spanked for dirtying the
living room walls and making a mess of my big sister’s books I
have learned my lesson and I do not scribble wherever I please
any more
Trang 4There are only four periods of Art per week in school and I find
that it is hardly sufficient I notice that time virtually flies during an
Art lesson Eighty minutes feel more like eight minutes when I am
drawing something One moment I am taking out my Art
materials, the next the teacher is asking us to hand in our work
I do not really understand why I love to draw The fact remains so
Every chance I have in between periods, I find myself doodling or
sketching something My classmates say that I draw very well and
I am inclined to agree with them, without bragging about it
Perhaps it is because I spend so much time practicing my skills
Trang 5I particularly love drawing cartoons This is one area where my
creativity gets regular workouts I sometimes draw things that
amaze even myself, not less my classmates One could say that I
have a fertile imagination Sometimes though the imagination
borders on the absurd, I have to be careful not to get carried
away I have caricatures of all the teachers I know Some of them
are flattering but some cannot be shown to the persons
concerned for they will certainly get upset They are for my
classmates and me to see only
I also love to draw still life in color Coloring is really an art and I
have developed considerable skills in it, much to the disbelief of
Trang 6my classmates Again, as I have had so much practice in coloring,
I have a distinct advantage over the rest of the class Often I show
them the finer points in drawing and coloring I am certain some of
them have improved tremendously in their drawing and coloring
In fact most of my classmates are above average in Art Anyway
that is what our Art teacher says
