ENGLISH ESSAY ‘A STREET HAWKER’
FROM 150 TO 200 WORDS
Street hawkers can be seen in every street of a
city. Street hawkers belong to a poor section of the city’s population. They
cannot afford to rent a shop and, therefore they sell their goods in the
streets. The hawkers are found selling vegetables, fruits and other wares of
daily use. They start selling with shouts since morning. They carry the items
either on their heads or in a cycle-cart. The housewives who cannot afford to
go to the distant market buy vegetables and other items from these street
hawkers.
He cries his ware and shouts in the street in an
interesting tone. Some hawker’s ring bells, some make strange sounds, some sing
songs in order to attract the attention of their customers. His customers are
housewives who buy vegetables, fruits etc. from him and children who buy ice
creams, sweets, toys etc. A street hawker caters to the need of the people and
supplies them goods of their requirement at their doorstep.
As a street
hawker has no fixed price, people bargain with him. Some street hawkers are not
clean and do not cover their eatables. We should not buy eatables from such
hawkers. Some of them are hardly able to make both ends meet.
