Ayesha was a brilliant student. She was the only daughter of her family. Everyone used to look
up to her great future. She was very intelligent and industrious by birth. She toped in every
exam. When she was in the 8th Class, She had a great challenge to maintain his position in class
because all the children in his class were industrious and committed to their study. She accepted
this challenge and started to study with keen interest.

She got up early in the morning, said prayers, recited Holy Quran and took some exercise. Then
she started to study her books. After that, she took breakfast and leave home for school. In
Morning she joined school with full enthusiasms. She also took part in extra circular activities.
She was best in badminton. She was good speaker. In every respect she was an embodiment of
perfect girl.

When she attended her class, she took keen interest in lectures. She heard teacher voice with full
devotion to understand her lesson. She made questions whenever, she felt difficulty in her lesson.
She was very creative mind and study things deeply and conceptually. She sat in front line to
better understand her lesson. She was social and cooperative with other students. She helped
those, who felt difficulties in their studies. She never felt shy to ask questions and got help from
companion students, whenever she felt difficulties in her studies.

Exam date was announced and she started to revise her syllabus. She completed the revision
before the commencement of exam. She was satisfied with her preparation for exam. At last the
exam started and she appeared in her first paper. When the paper was distributed in hall, like
other students she was waiting question paper to be held in her hand. When she got the paper and
read it she was happy to know that she know all the required answer. She solved her paper with
full confidence. Similarly, she took all the papers with full confidence.

After ending exam she has to wait few days for result. Finally the board announced the result
date. At result announcement day principal of the school called the students in school. At result
day, Ayesha was upset with the fear of result, “what is going to happen?”, she thought. In my
point of view its reality everyone becomes upset at the day of result announcement. Similarly,
Ayesha was also upset. When class in charge with principal reached in class to announce the
result, every student including Ayesha was staring at their face.

Class in charge announced the result. Ayesha topped the class and also took first position in
board. She was very happy to listen about her achieved position. Her family and her teachers
