The villains we love to hate

THIS is regarding the cover article “The villains we love to hate” compiled by Benazir Raz (YW, August 29, 2015).

The article was fantastic. I really liked the list but I think Nigel from Rio was the most evil character as he never changed and remained wicked till the end of the both parts of the movie. His pure evil eye expressions and his clever tricks were some of the significant things that take him to the top of the villains’ list.

Focus to excel

THIS is regarding the article “Focus to excel” by Arif Iftikhar (YW, September 19, 2015). The article effectively provided students with proper guidelines related to studies. Being focused in studies can lead us to success in both our exams and life. Our future depends on how we study and how we perform in exams and if we pass this phase successfully, prosperity becomes our destiny.

All the tips given in the article were wonderful and I am trying to follow them when I am studying and I hope many students are also following these tips. However, most children don’t take such guidelines seriously as they read and forget them soon. If more children follow these guidelines, our country is sure to prosper!

First aid you need to know

THIS is regarding the cover article “First aid you need to know”, compiled by Ambreen Arshad (YW, September 12, 2015). It was a wonderful article, full of information regarding first aid.

All the tips given in the article were very useful and one should know about them as an emergency can occur anywhere and anytime.

For instance, if you or anyone near you is accidently hurt and the hospital is also far, you should know how to take care of things in such situations.

This article was very great and everyone should read it and remember the advice given in it.

II

THE cover article “First aid you need to know” compiled by Ambreen Arshad was very informative. I really liked the article because it covered most of the accidents that children often come across while playing or simply by being careless.

The article is a must read and I would suggest to all the readers of the YW to read and paste it at a place in the house where everyone can see and keep in mind how to tackle the emergency situations immediately before reaching to the hospital.
