clever students. She is 2nd and Sanket is 1st
in the class. Sneha’s mother and father both
are teachers. Sanket’s father is a doctor and

Second paragraph
Sneha wants to become an engineer and
Sanket wants to work as C.A. Sneha is very
polite and firm girl but she is talkative. Sanket
is very hard working boy. He is a very hot
tempered boy. They must overcome their
weaknesses to get their targets. Sneha can
get better guidance at home as her parents
are teachers. Sanket has an advantage. He
has his mother at home always ready to help
him.
