everyone at least once in a life passed some kind of exam. should we worry about the results of the exam after we did that? at first glance, an answer to this question seems to be a piece of cake. but people actually split down in the middle with no clear confidence. being in the dark about our mark makes us feeling nervous. some people even become down in the dumps, i mean, they fall into depression bothering themselves. they even may understand that it doesn’t make any sense but they commonly can’t help it. but there is a category of people that can manage to not let their hairs down. they stay still whatever they do, particularly, sit in for a test.

to conclude, i don’t want to beat around the bush, that’s why will tell you my clear viewpoint. i also think that feeling nervous while waiting for exam results doesn’t add up.

Jules Verne is my favorite writer. He was a French novelist, play writer and poet. Jules Verne was one of the founders of science fiction. He is famous for his adventurous novels. He has an occupation of a lawyer but it wasn`t his vocation. He was fond of literature. His first play was staged in 1850. The first novel of Jules Verne brought him a great success. He was encouraged by the positive reviews, so he continued to create adventure novels. Jules Verne constantly traveled by sea. He was a member of the French Geographical society. Totally he has written 66 novels, many novels, and plays during his life. His novels have been translated into different languages. Many of them have been filmed. The most famous works are “Journey to the center of the Earth”, “the Children of Captain Grant”, “Around the World in 80 days” and many others.
