The energy we get from the sun is called solar energy. Solar energy is a renewable energy because it will never end as long as the sun remains.
Solar energy is also pollution free because there are no harmful gases, chemicals, or fly ash produced. Solar energy is the energy from the sun that is converted into thermal or electrical energy with the help of photovoltaic cells.
The production cost of solar energy is zero. A photovoltaic cell can produce even in low sunlight so there is no cut in energy even on a rainy or cloudy day.
Plants also use a process called photosynthesis to make food. During photosynthesis, plants use the energy of the sun to change water and carbon dioxide into a sugar called glucose. Starch is stored in seeds and other plant parts as a food source.

This topic came up for discussion when we did the lesson on Akbar and Birbal. I totally agree with this statement. Just because we know everything related to academic content, it doesn’t mean we have conquered intelligence itself! I think intelligence is far beyond academic intelligence.
Here’s an example. Let’s say you have mastered your previous academic test, and you think you know everything. One day, you go out to buy some vegetables. Now, you know how to handle money and how to speak properly due to your math and English. But what if a robber robbed you and took all your money? You don’t know what to do, because your syllabus hasn’t covered this!
Something similar (but not so dramatic) happened to me earlier and I got out of it, definitely by not using academic intelligence. In conclusion, I agree with the statement - intelligence covers way more than just academic intelligence.

When we put the car there and tie the rubber band and let it go, it will give a boost to the car. We can also customize the track with loopty loops and more.
He actually had a collection of these. There are lamborghinis, Bugatti’s, Ferrari’s and F1 cars.
One day, while we had gone shopping I spotted the same cars there. I was excited. I asked my mother if she could buy them. She thought about it and then said yes. Then I started a collection of my own.
Now I have over 100 cars and some unique ones- like one that twists and turns and a Ford Mustang with an open roof top, a BMW bike, a Ducati bike and a yellow color Lamborghini Aventador.
Even though we moved from the USA to India I bought it here and still have it for remembrance.

I loved cooking when I was young. Once I thought of giving a treat to my family by cooking dinner. I told my mom about it and thankfully she agreed if I would do it under her guidance. I agreed to her. I started cooking with my mom at 7:00pm.I made machos soup. Then for starter I made French fries with my brand new air fryer. Then for the main dish I made my favorite dish-”Paneer curry with rotis”.For the desert I made a three layer cake with ice cream and chocolate syrup .I was pleased with myself. I laid the the table with decorative glass, spoons, forks, cups and bowls. Then everybody tasted my dish and so did I. We were happily eating dinner. Everybody told they loved my dishes. I was very very happy and of course proud of myself. It was a Perfect dinner with my family and I had a memorable day!!

Since I was a small girl, I have always dreamed of becoming a famous singer. One night, I was lying down on my bed and listening to soft music playing from my headphones. Then as I closed my eyes, my dream was actually starting to come true!!
I found myself in a caravan with my cousin brother, my little sister and my older brother. We were driving to a cave filled with precious gems. As we were coming back, we saw a person holding some posters and oh my god! I couldn’t believe it!!It was from my dream channel called the Voice Kids!! He approached us and asked if any of us were interested in auditioning. I immediately stepped forward and happily said yes!
When we reached home, I told my parents about it. They immediately agreed. They auditioned me for The Voice Kids and soon enough, it was the day of my first performance! I was super excited and nervous at the same time. As I walked to the stage, I gathered all my strength and started singing and to my surprise, all the judges turned their chairs around which means they loved it!
I was so happy at the moment and as a bonus, I was in the Voice kids! Just then, my mom walked in and removed my headphones and told me to sleep and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I was so excited to resume my dream!!

India is called colourful thanks to its festivals, fashion, cities, etc. People keep many diyas on Diwali. They keep many colourful electric lights too. All the houses would be very colourful and decorated during Diwali. People bring coloured water on Holi and spray it on everybody. The place would be full of different colours after the event! Some people also do puja on Holi. People also wear different colourful clothes in different parts of the country. In Tamil Nadu (in South India).
Women wear sarees and men wear dhotis and shirts. In Punjab (in north india), men wear kurtas and turban, and women wear salwars. In India, even the food is colourful. People in different parts of the country eat different foods. In North India, People eat Chole Bature, Dal Bati Churma, Aloo Paratha, Roti Sabji, etc. In South India, people eat dosa with sambar and chutney, idli, idiyapppam, rice, etc. Even the cities in India have colourful buildings in streets and main roads. India grows many different colourful spices too.

Books are undeniably a blessing to humankind. And books being useful for us in many ways have earned the title of our best friend. Libraries are the storehouse of books of several genres where interested readers can spend time reading in silence or can borrow books by being a member of that library. Through this practice of reading, we humans also display a greater sense of being civilized.
There are individuals like myself who like to collect books, especially story books or novels. And this habit of mine has turned my house into a small library in itself. I know many other readers who share this same obsession with reading books and collecting them. My conversions with them mostly revolve around the plot, the character development, the writing style of the authors, and other aspects of books.

There is an ink bottle on the study table in my room. There is blue ink in it. It is for Parker ink pens- Parker Quink. To use it, we have a lever-like thing in the pen. Just pull that, and the ink will be filled. If it was in another room, like the hall, kitchen or the bedroom, then it would be difficult for me to fill the ink in the pen. Also, it would not be good as stationary things should always be in the study room or the Drawing room. It shines when light falls on it. Instead of getting many other refills, I use that.

la classe présentielle
?
Pourquoi ?
Bonjour je m’appelle Daksh et je suis en dixième. Moi, je préfère la classe à distance qui est facile à assister et à apprendre. On peut mieux comprendre en classe virtuelle/ en ligne grâce aux méthodes ou des outils dont les professeurs se servent. Les sujets comme la biologie, les langues deviennent faciles à comprendre parce que des outils en ligne : des vidéos et des présentations que le professeur présente rendre le sujet plus compréhensible et interactif. Mais pour les sujets comme les mathématiques, c’est difficile à comprendre après avoir fait plus d’attention.
Les classes présentielles ne sont pas mauvaises mais selon moi, les classes en ligne vont bien. On peut rester à la maison et on n’a pas besoin de sortir pour de petits boulots. On peut assister aux cours même si les conditions météorologiques ne vont pas bien. Génial, n’est- ce pas?
On peut facilement contacter les professeurs, si on a un doute. On peut envoyer un message par whatsapp ou un mél. Les classes en ligne peuvent être enregistrées pour des besoins futurs ce qui facilite les révisions.
La classe en ligne économise du temps des étudiants ce qu'ils pourraient utiliser pour d’autres activités productives comme la méditation ou lire un roman. Mais il y a aussi des inconvénients. Premièrement, quelquefois l’internet ne marche bien à cause duquel l’apprenant manque la classe ou il ne peut pas faire attention à la classe. Deuxièmement, c'est facile de se distraire dans la classe en ligne parce qu’on est à la maison, un lieu de détente. Enfin, Internet offre tout aux apprenants sous un ''clic". Donc, c’est difficile de distinguer ce qui est bon et ce qui est mauvais entre les choix innombrables devant l'écran.
Mais je fais attention à ma classe et c’est pourquoi je préfère les classes à distance.
Merci

Wormholes are theorized tunnels which go through space-time, sort of like those at water parks, but instead of going and ending at a pool these tunnels end at a different universe or a different place in our universe millions of light years away.
The simplest way of explaining how a wormhole works is by imagining space-time as a piece of paper. For example, on a paper we want to travel from point A to point B. The fastest way is of course going in a straight line, right? WRONG, remember the paper is space-time, so the fastest way would be to fold the paper and align the dots and then create a hole going through them, then — BOOM because of the hole we can now travel from point A to B faster than the speed of light. Space-Time can be bent because of Einstein’s theory of relativity which states that space is not a hard solid but more an air mattress which can be bent, torn and patched together. What we just saw was an example of a Man-Made Wormholes. There are two others types, Einstein – Rosen Bridges and String Theory Wormholes.
Einstein – Rosen Bridges were first introduced in The Theory of General Relativity, which stated that every black hole is kind of a wormhole where the other end is a white hole. This means that when one crosses the horizon, one ends up in a whole new location in our universe or another one. The other end is known as a white hole. Only problem is that it would take a person an infinite amount of time to come out from the other side thus making it not traversable.
If String Theory states the correct description of our universe then it would mean that there are many wormholes just waiting to be discovered. In the early universe Space – Time Quantum
Fluctuations might already have creative traversable wormholes, going through these are cosmic strings. When the big bang happened, these strings were pulled billions of light years away thus making wormholes. You might wonder how we can find these wormholes and use them to travel, well… it's a bit hard
The studies conducted at the University of Buffalo point towards a wormhole existing near Sagittarius A*. Physicist Dejan Stojkovic, the co-author of this study said in a statement that “If you have two stars, one on each side of the wormhole, the star on our side should feel the gravitational influence of the star that’s on the other side. The gravitational flux will go through the wormhole. So if you map the expected orbit of a star around Sagittarius A*, you should see
deviations from that orbit if there is a wormhole there with a star on the other side.
Even if we ever found a wormhole which was traversable, it would have to be extremely large and stable so that the wormhole stays open all the time. Realistically we would need something called negative energy to keep wormholes open and at this point in time we don’t know how to control or acquire it.

I have been on earth for as long as I can remember. I’ve seen
mother nature destroy, starve and feed species greater than you. One could say
that I am her better half. She toils to protect this beautiful planet, but I
thrive in chaos, pain, animosity and malice. I am ubiquitous and you will
mostly find me within yourself.
I lurk in your minds, making your hearts my permanent abode. I
drink tears to quench my thirst. And your prayers? My luscious food!
I wasn’t born out of agitation, but out of love. You see there’s a
fine line between me and love; that line is choice. Habits die hard and I
implore you to make me a habit. Trust me, hatred is a good habit.
I had few mortal friends, we got along very well. I still
reminisce the beautiful stories Hitler told me, about those fragrant rooms that
transport humans to another world. What a noble man! I miss the piquant Biryani
Saddam Hussein used to make. It’s heartbreaking to see that their alluring
legacies have been desisted. Ever since the end of the second world war, there
hasn’t been anything breathtaking.
A country that I relish being in is India. I turn this diverse
country into a warzone and they hail me. I make sure to come on television and
stand beside Arnab because “I want to know”. I rejoice seeing religious
polarization. I exult when I see the chasm between the rich and poor increase
every day. I celebrate every time people fight for land and territories. Little
do they know that kingdoms that considered themselves to be invincible and
eternal perished too.
I paint myself in bright colors that you see on vile
posters. I am the barbaric words you use against your loved ones. I endorse
xenophobia, racism and my personal favorite - speciesism.
How boring would life be without me? Tell me. Would you think?
Would you value love?
I am necessary. The Gods created me for you. Keep me close to your
hearts, and I will teach you to be happy!

Every day I would think. ‘ When could we have a perfect dinner?
I wanted to have dinner with my family, or friends, or with my neighbors. During the Dasara holidays, we decided to visit my grandparent’s house in Mysore. While going in the train, I thought, “what if we have a perfect dinner with my cousins, grandparents, and parents?”
When we reached my grandparent’s house, I told my idea to everyone. Some people would not accept, but of course, my grandparents and parents would accept and they did so.
I was wondering if it would be easy, but it was very difficult to ask everyone to accept my idea. After a few minutes, they accepted, and then problems began. When I solved one problem, there would be another.
Everyone started making their favorite and easy food. But, I was wandering around to get the problems solved. There would be silly problems like my aunt would be holding the salt bottle in her hand and would be searching for that. You know that ‘it is a waste of time’. At last, everything was prepared and perfect.
We all had a Perfect Dinner!!!!!

July 29 is celebrated across the world as International Tiger Day to raise awareness about the dwindling number of striped cats, who are on the brink of extinction, and to encourage tiger conservation. International Tiger Day was created in 2010 at Saint Petersburg Tiger Summit in Russia. In the summit, governments of tiger-populated countries vowed to double tiger population by 2022.
Almost a decade has passed since then. Here are answers to some frequently asked questions on tigers, International Tiger’s Day and facts on the big cats. Tiger population is rising at 6% every year in India. Around 3,900 tigers remain in the wild across the globe, according to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Since the beginning of the 20th century, over 95% of the world's tiger population has been lost. A WWF report says that about a 100 years ago, there may have been over 100,000 tigers that roamed the planet.

I have many favourite books, but my favourite book series is the FAMOUS FIVE by ENID BLYTON. It is all about adventures and creepy-horror. I like to read them in my free time and at night.
Some books have illustrations while others do not. When I read the book, I feel like I am in it with the pictures.
I also like SUDHA MURTY books. It has funny stories and rare mythology stories.
Reading books has improved my English and I would like to continue reading books.

Three values that are important to my family
Three important values to my family are :
1. Love everyone equally -We need to love everyone equally as we are a family and a family means being happy together and being there for each other . To do that we need to love and care for each other .
2. Not getting angry for little things -We should not get angry for little things like spilling water and so on. If we do that not only does the person getting scolded get sad but also the one scolding and the one seeing . Doing this might get negative thoughts in our minds.
3. Spending at least a few hours together - We need to spend time with our family so that we have some fun and get to know each other. This also helps us to relax .
These are the main values that are important in my family .
Thank you………
