Audio Response

Record the sample:

Being an avid traveller, I have a proclivity to go to various offbeat places. Therefore, I opted for a travelling job. There is one place that is a short distance from where I stay, but I don’t particularly appreciate going there. Every Friday and Saturday, I have to visit the Industrial Area for an official meeting. This place is 30 kilometres away from my home as my company has an industrial unit.

I wouldn’t say I like to take these incessant short trips for many reasons. Though the destination is worth it, the journey is very bumpy. The road is very congested. It is a sheer waste of my time and it feels like an unnecessary expense. Numerous heavy vehicles ply the streets, and most of them throw poisonous gases in the air through their exhaust pipes.

The centre of the industrial zone comprises a water body covered with stagnant pools of filth. Aside from this, there is no putative place to have food. Usually, I end up having my lunch in my car itself. Furthermore, traffic jams are a regular mark of this journey. Being a sedulous person, I treat time as a valuable resource. However, I usually waste 2-3 hours commuting to this place weekly. Whenever I return from this trip, I experience a cough coupled with a severe headache. Because of this trip, I have started experiencing shortness of breath.
