A Journey By Train-Paragraph

Once I traveled by train with my family to Delhi. My uncle lives there. He works in a bank. It was the occasion of my cousin's marriage with a local girl. We boarded the train in the morning. The train left Patna railway station in due time. It was a through mail train. It moved very fast without frequent stoppages. I took my seat near a window. The scenes on both sides of the train-line were moving fast behind us. Cool breeze washed my face with pleasant touches. 

I could see the villages and towns, the paddy-fields, the ponds, the rivers, the canals, the roads, the bullock-carts and so on. I could not remember how my time had passed. The railway contractors served us food, drinking water, snacks, tea or coffee, from time to time inside the train. The co-passengers in our compartment were gentle and peace-loving. At night, it was dark outside. My parents made me lie down on a lower birth, after the supper. I fell asleep. In the morning, I sat again near the window and enjoyed the sights, as before. The train reached Delhi in the afternoon. My uncle came to receive us at the station.

The Educative Value of Travelling-Paragraph

"A gentleman should travel abroad, but live at home"—says a renowned scholar. What he has said is meaningful, but it is, perhaps also equally true that those who want to live well and meaningfully at home should travel abroad. In fact, travelling has as equal an educative value as textbooks have. Seeing is learning—the real, pragmatic learning. If we go out visiting people and places at times and see for ourselves what we would otherwise read in books, our learning will become more effective. What is normally written in textbooks? Nothing but the abstraction of the reality—of what has happened, is happening, and may happen in future. If this is true, then it is also true that travelling should be a part of our academic education. The universities, colleges, and schools of most developed countries have already made it compulsory to travel or go on education tours. In Russia, for example, there are some subjects on which theoretical teaching is not at all given to students in the first year of their schooling. Such evidences, and various other research work launched by scholars, hold out the fact that travelling has an immense educative value.
