Sample answer

Introduction

  • I meet numerous intelligent people regularly.
  • Some of my friends, colleagues and neighbours are extremely intelligent.

Who is the person?, and What does he/she do?

  • I know one such person who is extremely intelligent. She usually goes beyond the conventional domain to solve the issues in our society.
  • Her name is Dr Rimple Sharma. She is my next-door neighbour.
  • Her family members are not only altruistic but also philanthropic.
  • Dr Rimple Sharma is a dietician; she is a university gold medallist and runs a weigh-loss centre in our neighbourhood.
  • She runs her centre from 9 am to 6 pm.

Why do you think he/she is smart?

  • I think she is smart because, with her intelligence, she has single-handedly improved the fitness of the people staying in our neighbourhood.
  • One year back, I used to be very bulky. To lose weight, I tried a lot of options to lose weight like running, swimming, gymming and so on. But I didn’t get good results.
  • During that period, one of my friends introduced me to Dr Rimple Sharma. She is a renowned dietician.
  • After listening to my side of the story, she suggested two changes in my diet. Firstly, not to eat anything between 7 pm to 7 am, which means not taking dinner after 7 pm and not having breakfast before 7 am. Secondly, she suggested me to chew every bite for at least 32 times.
  • Her advice sounded a bit weird to me because before meeting her, I had implicit faith in the belief that the easiest way to lose weight is to do a lot of exercises.
  • Whereas, as per Dr.Rimple, the contribution of the right diet in the weight loss journey is 80 per cent, and the share of physical workout in the same is just 20 per cent.
  • Due to her intelligent and smart suggestion, I was able to get rid of the extra fat on my body, without much hard work.
  • Her intelligence is not limited to her domain only.
  • She has this habit of solving all complex problems through her smart and intelligent work.

How do you feel about him/her?

  • She is my role model. I always seek flashes of inspiration from her.
  • I always try to follow her footsteps to move towards an impressive growth trajectory.
