After reading a passage from Henry David Thoreau’s “Where I Lived and What I Lived for, in 400 words or more, explain what you want from life itself and how change is a necessary element of existence. Use your best English and use strong verbs and nouns to create a picture for an audience to imagine.
“I went to the woods to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life.”
