Yashank- Hello suhird, it’s great to see you again
Suhird – Hi, it's great seeing you too, how long has it been? It must be more than 6 months. I'm doing good. How about you?
Yashank- Not too bad
Suhird- What is new?
Yashank- Well I wanted to meet you because I really want to talk to you about my friend.
Suhird- Okay
Yashank- Well, He doesn’t bring his books and disturbs others during study hours. He keeps on speaking and never lets other study. Due to him, I am not able to concentrate in class.
Suhird- Did you try to talk to him?
Yashank-Yes but he neither listens to me nor my friends.
Suhird- Do teachers know about him?
Yashank- I guess, but they just ignore him while they are teaching.
Suhird – why don’t you try talking to him again?
Yashank- I have done several times, but he still doesn’t pay attention.
Suhird- I think you should talk to his class teacher about him. Since they have more experience than us in handling students.
Yashank- OKAY, it sounds like a good idea. I will also ask him to make the subject more interesting and practical so that he is able to concentrate more on his studies.
Suhird- Do you need help with anything else?
Yashank- No, thank you for your time.
Suhird – No problem brother. Bye
Yashank- Bye
A glance at the table reveals the number of visitors to Ashadown Museum before and after its renovation. Additionally, two pie charts provide information about visitor satisfaction during these two periods. It is evident from the table that the number of visitors significantly increased to 92,000 after the renovation, compared to approximately 74,000 before the reconstruction. Among these groups, the rate of dissatisfied visitors saw the most significant change, dropping from 40 percent before the museum's redecoration to a remarkable decline of 15 percent after. In contrast, the rate of very satisfied visitors experienced an exponential increase, rising from 15 percent before the renovation to 35 percent after. Furthermore, the percentage of satisfied visitors also showed a rise of 10 percent after the changes to the museum, reaching approximately 40 percent. Similarly, both the groups of very dissatisfied visitors and those who did not respond showed a similar percentage of 5 percent in the year following the refurbishment of the museum.
