THE SUBJECT I LIKE MOST
Every student has his favourite subject. I do also have one, that is, English. I am spontaneous in the subject from the very beginning than in all other subjects. It can’t bored me and I’m always ready to study it. I feel proud of myself when I see that all other mates feel jealous upon me when I score the highest mark in English. It was my father who had made the basis of the language construction and its application in me by his utmost caring. I enjoy the subject more when I see its vast field of knowledge by the writings throughout the world. I enrich myself going through various reference books other than my school books and enjoying short stories and novels of English writers. Being an widely circulated language in every field of life I feel comfort being with this subject.
