Oral Picture Practice Set 2: Picture 8

Introduction
This picture depicts a scene at the library of Fu Ling Primary School. A library is a good place for prople to study as it is very quiet. It is indeed a good environment.
It is also a very resourceful place where people can find answers to most of their doubts by searching in non-fiction books. I believe that the library has to be kept in tranquility and it also has to be clean.

Scenario 1: Wrong and Consequences
A mischievous boy is tearing out a page from one of the library's books. A middle-aged woman who may be the libraian is storming towards him. Perhaps the reason why she is so worked up is because she treasures the books.

The boy should not be doing this. This act is considered as spoiling public property. The boy is already so mischievous at such a young age. No one could ever predict what crime he would be committing in years to come unless he turns over a new leaf.

The librarian should hand him over to the principal or discipline master for punishment. This act is unforgivable and he should be punished severely. If he is let off scot-free, the others would think that it will be alright to destroy public property and start following his footsteps.

Scenario 2: Wrong and Consequence
A boy is trying to steal a library book without borrowing it. From his expression, I can see that noticed the boy who is tearing out a page from the library book. I infer that he is afraid he might get caught but he still insisted on stealing the book.

I think he should not be doing so. If he is handed to the police for stealing in the future, there will be a bad record on his name and his bright future would be tarnished. Of course, it also affects his opportunity of getting good jobs.

However, the librarian who is sitting on her table staring blankly at the air, is also in part of the wrong. I suggest that she be more serious with her job and try to prevent crime like this from occurring again and makes sure that everything goes smoothly, rather than doing nothing.

Conclusion
A library can be a great place to go to during free time if you know how to admire the books. It will be better of people to go there during their free time rather than staying at home to do something that does not help in studies or work.

We should treasure all the libraries that we have in Singapore as some people at other countries do not even have a chance to read a book.
