time because I cannot leave my wife alone at home. If possible, we can meet up on other days whenever you are free. Anyways, I am planning to come to your place on Nov 1st 2022 to meet my clients for business proposals, and the meeting will be over by 4 PM so I will be free after 4 PM. After that, we can catch up for an hour at any of the restaurants near kamarajar street which is near to you. I hope you will understand my situation and accept my apologies for not attending the function. With best regards, Venkatesh Ravichandran

Popular hobbies and interests change over time and are more a refection of trends and fashions than an indication of what individuals really want to do in their spare time. To what extent do you agree and disagree.
Some leisure pursuits enjoy brief periods of popularity before fading away when new trends emerge, while others endure across generations. Therefore, I can only partly agree with the assertion that our pastimes are more reflective of changing fashions than of our genuine interests.

Some people think that it is important to use leisure time for activities that improve the mind, such as reading and doing word puzzles. Other people feel that it is important to rest the mind during leisure time. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
It is often believed that people should spend their leisure time advancing their mental abilities through reading and puzzles. However, some people are sceptical about this view, putting more importance on rest. I support the latter view, for taking a rest leads to the improvement of mental health regardless of some psychological activities stimulating their mind for new attempts.

Too much attention is given to headline-grabbing disasters like earthquakes and floods. Government should concentrate their resources on educating people about the risk they face nearer to home, which can cost far more lives. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion.
Today, media coverage commonly dwells on large-scale disasters, such as earthquakes and floods that have cost plenty of expenditure. Hence, the officials supposedly allocate their funding to foster inhabitants' intellect to tackle local issues rather than mull over the problem. In addition, considering the topic, I strongly agree with this opinion, as prioritizing local risks could save more lives in the long run.

There is an increasing number of people who are opting to purchase prepared food from restaurants or cosy shops rather than preparing their own meals by themselves. I would argue that this notion has a benefit in possessing better time management, while some detrimental effects related to expenditure and life skills could also be observed.
