large ears, long white tusk, and a long nose which is its trunk. Elephants are found in Indian and in Africa. They live in herds
in jungles. The elephant is a very intelligent animal and has great strength. Elephants can carry heavy loads. They live their
lives entirely on leaves of trees, grass, and roots.

_______________2. Our store has the lowest prices and the best collection of footwear in the entire town. Visit us today for
a great experience.

_______________3. A grand exhibition was held in the town. The first impression on entering the ground was of walking in
some fairyland. The vast space was decorated with so many colorful lights. The stalls, there, were like small shops and they
had all the needful items. All types of amusements could be seen there. The children were enjoying the ride on merry – go –
round, the giant wheel, railway train and other. The excitement and joy could be seen easily.

_______________4. It was a hot, sunny day. I finally visited Disneyland. It was a dreamland. I always wanted to visit there.
Being there it was like dream come true experience. On entering, the very first thing that I said, “Oh wow! What a wonderful
place!” People were walking and enjoying their time with all the Disney characters. Children over there were so happy and
excited. I think it is a must visit place for everyone.

_______________5. Our family needs a dog for the following reasons: protection, entertainment, and to teach
responsibility. First, having a dog will ensure that our home is better protected because a dog can bark or fight off intruders,
and will set us all at ease knowing that a dog has a protective instinct for those he/she is loyal to. Second, a dog can also
bring entertainment to our household as well as help us all to stay active by taking him/her out to walk, run, or just play.
Finally, and most importantly, a dog will teach us responsibility. Being in charge of taking care of an animal will teach us all
many life lessons that will benefit us as we grow older. Our family needs a dog so that we can be better protected, for a
great source of entertainment, and to teach us all lessons in responsibility.
