10. If ─ hw`| ( conditional)


There are two kinds of conditional sentences: real and unreal. Real Conditional describes real-
life situations. Unreal Conditional describes unreal, imaginary situations.

Type A: Factual conditional/zero conditional (Real conditional)


01. If + present indefinite, + present indefinite.
= If/when you boil water, it evaporates.
= If/when people earn more, they spend more.
= If/when you hungry, have a banana.
= If/when a balloon is filled with air, it floats.
= If/when you heat water to 100 degrees, it boils.
= If/when you eat too much, you get fat.
= We cannot our body fit if/when we do not have a balanced diet.

02. If + past indefinite, + past indefinite.


= If it rained, I went by rickshaw.
= If my father bought chocolates, he always gave me some.
Type B: First conditional / Predictive conditional (Real conditional)
If + present indefinite, + future indefinite.
= If you don't hurry, you'll miss the bus.
= If I find his address, I will send him the letter.

Type C: Second conditional/ Hypothetical conditional (Unreal conditional)


If + past indefinite, + would/could/might + v1
= If I had enough money, I would buy a new computer
= If you lived in England, you would speak English fluently.
= Had I wings of a bird, I could fly in the sky.

Type D: Third conditional/Counterfactual conditional. (Unreal conditional)


If + past perfect, + would have + v3
= If I had asked him, he would have helped me.
= If I had met him before, I would have told him the news.
= If you had worked hard, you would have passed the exam.
= Had I seen him once more, I would have told the matter.

Type E: Mixed real conditional


In factual conditionals, we usually use the same tense in both clauses(see Type-A), but we
sometimes use a mixture of past and present tenses in the clauses:
= If you saw the film, you know how it ends.
= If they don’t understand what to do, they probably weren’t listening earlier.

Some factual conditionals are used to describe habits in the past with would(‘d). It has the same
meaning as used to. It makes the sentence look like a hypothetical conditional, but it is not.
= When we were kids, if it rained a lot, we’d stay indoors. But it was sunny, we’d often go down
to the lack.

In predictive conditionals(see Type-B), we usually use the present simple in the if clause, but we
can also use the past simple/present perfect.
= If you studied for the test, you won’t have any problems.
= If they’ve finished already, we’ll give them something else to do.

When we use predictive conditionals to express a preference, we can include would with the
verbs of ‘liking’
or ‘not liking’ in the main clause. We can also use would rather plus the base form of a verb
when we express a preference between alternatives which have been suggested.
= If it isn’t too late, we’d like to watch the news on TV.
= If it’s OK with you, I’d rather stay here. (You suggested going somewhere else.)

Type-F: Mixed unreal conditional


In hypothetical conditionals (see Type-C), instead of connecting an imaginary event to a possible
present or future event using would, we can connect it to a possible past event with would have.
= If we were rich, we would have offered to help those poor people who were suffering.
= If I were rich, I would have bought that Ferrari we saw yesterday.
In counterfactual conditionals (see Type-D), instead of connecting an imaginary past event to
another past event using would have, we can connect it to a present event or situation using
would.
= If your parents hadn’t met, you wouldn’t be sitting here now.
= If she had been born in the United States, she wouldn't need a visa to work here.

11. So.........that + sentence. (GZB . . . †h )


= The dinner was so delicious that we ate with satisfaction.
= He is so weak that he cannot walk.

Attaching Prefixes and Suffixes: Bits and Pieces


Guide to Spelling: Hooked on Phonics
Prefixes are word parts you add to the beginning of a word to change its meaning;suffixes are
word parts you add to the end of a word to change its meaning. Because many useful words are
created by adding prefixes and suffixes to root words, you can save a lot of time wondering “Did
I spell this sucker correctly?” by knowing how to add prefixes and suffixes. Let’s take a look at
the guidelines.
Attaching Prefixes: Front-End Collision
The rule here is simple: Don’t add or omit a letter when you attach a prefix. Keep all the letters
—every one of them. Here are some examples.
Prefix Word New Word
dis + satisfied = dissatisfied
mis + spell = misspell
un + acceptable = unacceptable
re + election = reelection
inter + related = interrelated
You Could Look It Up
Prefixes are word parts you add to the beginning of a word to change its meaning; suffixes are
word parts you add to the end of a word to change its meaning.
Attaching Suffixes: Rear-End Collision
Keep all the letters when you add a suffix … unless the word ends in a y or a silent e. We’ll talk
about them later. The following chart and guidelines show you how to master the suffix
situation.
Word Suffix New Word
accidental + ly = accidentally
drunken + ness = drunkenness
ski + ing = skiing
foresee + able = foreseeable
1. If the letter before the final y is a consonant, change the y to i and add the suffix. Study these
examples.
Word Suffix New Word
hurry + ed = hurried
greedy + ly = greedily
o Hurry doesn’t follow the rule: hurry + ing = hurrying. Here are some other exceptions: dryly,
dryness, shyly, shyness, babyish, ladylike.
2. If the letter before the final y is a vowel, do not change the y before attaching a suffix.
Word Suffix New Word
play + ing = playing
destroy + ed = destroyed
o Here are some exceptions: laid, paid, said, mislaid, underpaid, unsaid.
3. If the suffix begins with a vowel, drop the silent e. Here are some examples.
Word Suffix New Word
write + ing = writing
love + able = lovable
use + age = usage
o When the word ends in ce or ge, keep the e if the suffix begins with a or o: noticeable,
manageable, advantageous. Here are some common exceptions: acreage, mileage, singeing,
canoeing, hoeing.
1. If the suffix begins with a consonant, keep the silent e. Here are some examples.
Word Suffix New Word
excite + ment = excitement
care + ful = careful
fierce + ly = fiercely
o Of course there are some exceptions: argument, duly, truly, wholly, and ninth.
2. If the word ends in ie, drop the e and change the i to y. Check out these examples.
Word Suffix New Word
lie + ing = lying
die + ing = dying
tie + ing = tying
3. Add ly to change an adjective to an adverb. Here are some examples.
Word Suffix New Word
brave + ly = bravely
calm + ly = calmly
o If the adjective ends in ic, add al before ly.
Word Al Suffix New Word
drastic + al + ly = drastically
scientific + al + ly = scientifically
o If the adjective ends in ble, change ble to bly.
Word New Word
able ably
noble nobly
4. In a one-syllable word, double the final consonant before a suffix beginning with a vowel.
Word Suffix New Word
plan + er = planner
big + est = biggest
o Don’t double the final consonant if it comes after two vowels or another consonant. For
example: failed, stooped, warmer, lasting.
5. In a word of two or more syllables, double the final consonant only if it is in an accented
syllable before a suffix beginning with a vowel. Here are some examples:
Word Suffix New Word
defer + ed = deferred
resubmit + ing = resubmitting
o Don’t double the final consonant if it comes after two vowels or another consonant. For
example: obtained, concealed, abducting, commendable.
6. If a words ends in ic, insert a k after the c.
Word Suffix New Word
mimic + ing = mimicking
traffic + ing = trafficking
7. There’s only one hint for adding able or ible: an adjective usually ends in -able if you can trace
it back to a noun ending in -ation. Sensible is the exception.
Noun Adjective
adaptation adaptable
commendation commendable
o But there are many words that don’t fit this rule, so this isn’t the rule to have tattooed on your
palm.

My Childhood Memories (আমার শৈশব স্মৃতি)

Memories of childhood mean some incidents of the past to be remembered. Childhood is the
sweetest period of human life. Childhood memories are special for everyone.I have also
some childhood memories in my life.(Avgvi Rxe‡b).

Nobody can forget his/her childhood memories. My childhood days were very colorful.They
were full of a lot of memorable things and events.I can still remember my childhood very much.
I was born in a village named Purbagram in the thana of Mohammadpur where I passed my
childhood.

Many things happened in my childhood days, but I cannot remember all of them. My father was
a government employee.

I was the youngest son of my parents. So, all the member of my family loved me very much.
They gave me everything.

They took a great care of me. They bought for me nice toys. My grandmother was very fond of
me. She told me many beautiful stories.

I went to the village market with my father. I passed a happy time there. My father bought
sweetmeats.. But those happy days are now gone.

When I was five years old, then my birthday ceremony was held. I was very happy on that day.
Many relatives came to our house.They bought for me many nice things and toys.

I remember when I first went to school at the age of six. My first day at school was one of the
memorable incidents of my life.

The school was not far from our house. All the teachers were kind and loving. All the students of
the class were friendly. I shall never forget them.
There is a ground in front of my house. Paddy and other crops are grown in the ground. The
golden color of the paddy field attracted me much.

Every afternoon after coming from school, I went to my playground through the paddy field.The
paddy plants touched me.

My play ground was on the bank of a small river flowing by our house . In the afternoon, I took
part in games.

Sometimes, my playmates and I arranged sports competition. Sagor, Tariqul, Basir, Nijam,
Kamal were my close childhood friends and playmates. I shall never forget them and those days.

I got mixed in the midst of beauty of nature . I shall never forget those moments of my life. I can
remember the happy days that passed with my friends.

My village primary school was also another interesting place. I used to go to school with my
friends.. We would learn our lessons with great noise.

We roamed about up and down in the whole village and plucked various summer’s fruits and ate
them heartily.

In winter morning mother prepared different kinds of cakes and food with date juice. We ate
them with great pleasure and enjoyed basking in the morning sun.

I feel delight when I remember the memories of my childhood.The days, the months, the years
go away. My duties are increasing day by day I always look for the days of my childhood

I know that it is not possible to get back those days.Therefore, it should not kill present days
thinking the past days. Because, past is always past.

I have left behind the deep bond of love of my childhood days but it thrills me with
delight whenever I look back in a flight of fancy.

Composition-Vision 2021

Vision 2021

‘Digital Bangladesh’ means digitalizing Bangladesh by ensuring an ICT based society where
information will be available on line and where all possible activities of the government and
other non-government or semi-government organizations will be performed using digital
technology. Making a digital Bangladesh was an election manifesto (2008) of Awami League,
one of the leading political parties in Bangladesh. In the 9th National Parliamentary election,
Awami League declared to develop Bangladesh into a digital country by the next decade.
Bangladesh is an independent country. She achieved her freedom more than 39 years ago. But
still she is burdened with many problems like poverty, over population, unemployment,
corruption, food deficit, natural calamities, power crisis etc. Considering all these, the present
government has aimed at making a Digital Bangladesh to overcome these problems. The motto
of Digital Bangladesh is to establish technology based digital governance, e-commerce, e-
agriculture, e-education, e-production, etc. emphasizing the overall development of the country
and the nation.

The benefits of Digital Bangladesh are many. If we can establish a Digital Bangladesh,
corruption will be drastically reduced. Besides, it will save people’s time and money and will
make people more enterprising and thus will reduce unemployment problem. It will connect
people with the whole world economically, politically, socially, academically and even
culturally. It will open doors for the people to improve their conditions. It will also improve
banking and financial activities. Money transfer and transaction of business could be made
within seconds by clicking the mouse of a computer. Agriculture, health, education, commerce –
all these sectors will be highly benefited by making Bangladesh a Digital one.

The year 2021 will be a landmark in the history of Bangladesh which will mark the golden
jubilee of the Bangladeshis’ independence. The present government is committed to freeing
Bangladesh from its current state of crisis and citizens will be able to live prosperous and happy
lives. Democracy and strong democratic institutions will be established for holding reliable
election at regular intervals, accountability the government to the people and effective parliament
and human rights will be established on a strong footing with a view to ensuring the rule of law.
Terrorism, corruption and the use of religion for politics will be stopped. The institutions of the
state will be made more effective along with the independent and strong anti-corruption
commission for curbing corruption. Social resistance to corruption will be promoted alongside
legal steps. Steps shall be taken to ensure participation of women in all spheres of national life. It
will be ensured that all citizens are equal before law and are entitled to equal protection of law.
In fact, all measures will be taken to protect Bangladesh. The visions have created the hope
among the common people which should be implemented successfully.

My favourite game

Or, The Game I Like most

The Game of Cricket

Cricket is my favourite game.Cricket is one of the most favourite games all over the world. It is
an outdoor and costly game. Though it is the national game of England, it is now popular
international game.

Cricket is played between eleven players on each of the two sides(`yB cv‡k¦©).It is mainly
played in England, Australia, South Africa, West Indies, New Zealand, India, Pakistan, Sri
Lanka and South Africa but is now spreading to other countries like Zimbabwe, Scotland, Wales,
Ireland, east and West Africa, Canada, USA etc.

It keeps our body sound and strong. The game of cricket needs two teams of which each team
has eleven players. It needs a big ground to play. Bats, balls and two sets of stumps are also
needed. Two umpires conduct the game.

At the beginning of the match, a toss is adopted to select a fielding group and a batting
group.The batsman may be out in many ways. He may be bowled out, run out, stumped out and
caught out.When a bowler bowls,a batsman hits the ball away and changes position with his
partner before the ball is received at the wickets.Thus, one run is scored.

If the ball crosses the boundary line, four runs are made. If it flies over the boundary line, six
runs are scored. After interval, the fielding group comes to bat and the batting group goes to field
for fielding.

The team that scores more runs wins the game. The duration of the game depends on the fall of
wicket or completion of the over. Cricket is very popular all over the world. I like it very much.

Thousand of people see it being played on the pitch while million others watch it on their TV
sets. Cricket stars become heroes of the public.

I like cricket the most because it is an open air game played in a very wide field and gives me an
opportunity to develop my health and skill of cooperation, team spirit, handwork, and fair play.

It is played for longer duration and so helps in developing strength, stamina,endurance and
sportsmanship. It also helps in bringing out the best of player.

It requires a lot of patience, concentration, right judgment, application of mind and full
dedication besides cooperation and team spirits.

Cricket teaches the players how to be helpful,kind and charitable to others. The true spirits of
cricket is that of fair play, justice, selflessness, operation, discipline, and struggle and never to
admit defeat.

A good cricket player can face any odds cheerfully and take victory and defeating his studies.
Victory and defeat are the part of game.The game of cricket brings the sense and spirits of fair
play into practice.

Cricket is my favourite game because of its much charm and importance. It makes me thrilled
when I watch it. Really it is a game after my heart.

Women’s Contribution/Rule to the


Development of Bangladesh/Nation
By : Gulap Khan

On : 5:32 PM

Women’s Contribution/Rule to the Development of Bangladesh/Nation

The statement of Napoleon Bonapart ‘Give me a good mother; I will give you a good nations’ is the best
example of women’s contribution in the development of nation country. Except physical strength are
not inferior to men in any respect. They constitute around half of the total population of a country. So,
they should be provided equal opportunity in all the nations building activities. In Bangladesh women’s
participation in nation building activities are very poor. It is not because of their disinterest, but because
of the restrictions imposed upon them. In our male dominated society women are not considered to be
competent enough for performing activities other than house hold activities. As a member of the family,
society or nation their position is far behind the males.

To ensure women’s contribution there are a few prerequisites. The first one of them is to established
compulsory female education. Next come gender equity, female empowerment and measures to stop
violence against women’s.

In our country women’s are now participating in varieties of job and thus contributing to the national
development. More than 90% of garment workers are female. A large number of females are working as
labor in constriction of road, bridge, building etc. They are working in the husking mills, weaving
factories and in different government and non government offices and business farms. Women’s are
working as teacher in different educational institutions. They are serving as doctor and engineer. They
have proved their capability as pilot, in BDP, Police, and Army. They are doing well in administration and
judiciary. Women are working in the glass root level as social health and family planning workers. But
yet their participations are not up to the marks. Moreover, they are victims of injustice in receiving
wages in most cases. Sometimes they do not get required co-operation form their male colleagues and
boss. These of course hamper their productivity.

Since, women are responsible for rearing their children; they should be knowledge about the
appropriate measures of health, hygienic and feeding requirements of the babies. Otherwise proper
development of our babies will be hampered. As a result our future generation will be less productive.
So, each and every woman’s should be educated on this issue.

From the past till now women are contributing to the national development. But appropriate measures
should be taken to ensure their best contribution.
A Village Fair that I VisitedA fair is held in my village every year on the day of Baisakhi. The Baisakhi
always falls on the thirteenth day of April every year. It is on this day that the farmers start harvesting
their crops. Hence the day is celebrated with great joy with only little variations from, village to village. I
went to see the Baisakhi fair held in my village last year. It covered quite a vast area outside the
village.A very large numbers of people from nearby villages were making a bee-line to the fair. There
were a large number of stalls. At many stalls, sweets and other eatables were available in large
quantities. They were taking their choice able foods from the stalls.
Different stalls were collecting and selling different types of items. Some stalls were selling colourful
toys, balloons and balls. There was a great rush at stalls selling ladies’ items like glass bangles, bracelets,
necklaces, nail-polishes, lipsticks and several other items of artificial jeweler.In one corner, a magician
was showing his tricks. And in another corner a snake-charmer was singing with his pipe in front of a
Cobra who had its hood raised while a large crowd of people stood around.However, the fair was really
enjoyable and it gave me much pleasure and from it I collected much practical knowledge.

World Heritage site in Bangladesh

By : Gulap Khan

There are many heritage sites in the world. Each site presents its important aspects and characteristics.
The Shat GambuJ Mosque, the Buddhist Vihara, the Sundarbans, the Agra Fort. The Iron Bridge are the
important heritage sites. Description of World Heritage Sites Though a small country, Bangladesh has
three World Heritage Sites the historic Shatgombuj Mosque of Bagerhat, the ruins of the Buddhist
Vihara at Paharpur and the Sundarbans.

The Shatgombuj Mosque: The Shatgombuj Mosque is a 15th Century Islamic edifice situated in the
suburbs of Bagerhat, on the edge of the Sundarbans, some 175 km southwest of Dhaka. It is an
enormous Moghul architectural site covering a very large area. The mosque is unique. It has sixty pillars,
which support seventy-seven exquisitely carved domes that have worn away with the passage of time.
The mausoleum of the citys founder, Khan Jahan Ali can be found nearby. With the declaration of the
mosque as a World Heritage Site, it is hoped that this beautiful architectural monument will be
preserved from further decay.

The Buddhist Vihara at Paharpur: The Buddhist Vihara at Paharpur, 200 kilometres northwest of Dhaka,
was founded in the 7th century. It is the largest single Buddhist monastery in the Indian subcontinent
and is also known as the Somapura Mahavihara, the great Monastery. It was a renowned intellectual
centre from the 7th century until the 17th century. Its layout is perfectly adapted to its religious

Moghul Emperor Shahjahan is situated next to the gardens of the Taj Mahal. An important Moghul
monument of the 17th century, it is a powerful fortress, constructed of red sandstone and hence its

from various countries come to visit these heritage sites every year. We, the Bangladeshis, are lucky to
have some World Heritage Sites in the country. A World Heritage Site is a place recognized by the
international community.

My aim in life/future plan of your life

Introduction: The target of a ship is to reach the port, the aim of a boat is to join the river and
the goal of a river is to meet the sea. Similarly, every man should have a definite aim that
determines his future career and helps him reaching the goal of life. It is the driving force in a
man similar to aim in life. It is a great virtue and everybody should have it. If a man does not
have any definite aim he cannot succeed in life.

Differences of taste and ambition: Different persons have different aims in life. Somebody
craves for honour, and high dignity in the society, somebody desires the power and somebody
wants wealth. Again, somebody wants to be a doctor and so on. This choice of profession
depends on one’s taste, aptitude and intensity of desire.

Choice of my profession: From my childhood I had a great regard for teaching profession. As
such I had always cherished an intense desire in my mind for becoming a teacher. My father who
is a school teacher has inspired me to take this teaching profession. He has often said that a
teacher can give real service to his country through teaching. I have also got inspiration from my
school teachers. Their inspirations have left an effect on me and I have come to believe that
nothing can be nobler than to build up the character of the future generation. Another reason
behind my choice is that profession of a teacher is noble and his life is a dedicated one.
Moreover, 60% of our people have no light of education. And as such, they are suffering for
ignorance. So, I want to give them the light of education and make them good citizens of the
country. For all these reasons, I have decided to be a teacher. It reminds me of a Chinese
proverb:

“If you plan for a year, sow a seed,

If you plan for a decade, plant a plant,

If you plan for a century, teach the people”.

How to fulfill my aim:


A) Preparation: To be a good teacher I wish to prepare myself first. I am now an S.S.C
Examinee of a secondary school. After passing the secondary school certificate (S.S.C) and
H.S.C Examinations with credit I shall get myself admitted into a renowned University for
Honours and Masters Degree. After having done Masters I shall finish the B. Ed and M.Ed.
course to qualify myself as a good teacher. I shall also complete some training courses on
teaching profession.

B) How I will serve the Country: When I have finished my course of studies, I like to join the
High School located in my own village, where, I will render my best services to the society and
the nation at large in teaching I shall vest my all out efforts to enkindle the light of learning in the
minds of people. From my childhood I saw most of our villagers are not educated and they face
various problems. I like to remove their present condition. I must help them teaching their
children.

Conclusion: A man’s real success in life greatly depends on his proper choice of career. My
long cherished aim in life is to bring a desirable change in human behavior through education. I
shall be happy and consider my work amply rewarded, if I can give them proper education and
knowledge and make them good citizens of the country.

monthlies, fortnightlies, and so on. The daily newspaper carries the various kinds of news and
views of the daily affairs of the respective country along with the whole world. So the daily

Chaya Chhanda etc are the names of weekly magazines. The Chitta Bangla and the Ananda
Bichitra are fortnightly and monthly magazine respectively.
Usefulness: Newspaper is very useful to all sections of people. It tells us what is happening at
home and abroad. It is said that, Newspaper is a store house of knowledge and information. All
sections of people such as Students, Lawyers, Politicians, Traders, and Sportsman etc are always
in need of newspapers. They find in the newspaper some items of information that are very
useful to them. It familiarizes the students with the world outside. Merchants read the newspaper
to know the condition of the market, Lovers of sports go through them to get the sports news,
and Politicians come to know the political news of the world. The employment seekers get useful
information in it. It is for all these reasons newspapers are a great concern to all. Newspaper is
also the best medium of advertisement. Business men bring their products and goods to the
notice of a wide circle of people through it. People also express their opinions through
newspapers. It is the means of communications between the government and the people.

Draw backs: Newspapers have a great responsibility. Their duty is to lead the people and nation
in right way. Hence they should furnish correct news and impartial views. But this is often
ignored. As the newspapers are owned by different political parties, they provide news and
express views in their own way. Really speaking, newspapers sometimes suppress the truth and
spread lies. Hence newspaper is not always an unmixed blessing. Napoleon said, “Four hostile
newspapers are more to be feared than a thousand bayonets”.

Conclusion: In spite of its draw-backs newspaper is the most useful thing in modern life. We
cannot think of a day without it. To read newspaper is a good habit. The more we read
newspaper, the more we can acquire knowledge. If we do not read it, we shall be like the frogs in
a dark well. It is a looking glass of the modern world. So, all of us should read it regularly.

Discipline

Introduction: Discipline is a principle of obedience and the spirit of maintaining order. In other
words, the rules which regulate human activities and conduct are called discipline. It makes a
man obey the rules and mould his life according to the prevailing law and order.

Value of Discipline: The value of discipline is obvious is every walk of life. It regulates human
conduct and prevents him from doing whatever he likes. It strengthens law and order in society.
In order to keep peace and tranquility in the society discipline is must. It is the basis of all other
virtue. For want of discipline a home cannot be a real home, a society cannot be a peaceful
society, and a nation cannot be a strong and progressive one.

Discipline in Nature: Nature shows the shining example of the necessity of discipline. The sun,
the moon, the stars, and the planets of the universe follow discipline strictly. Any breach of
discipline here will bring about the total annihilation of the universe.

Necessity of discipline in different fields of life: Discipline is very important in every sphere of
life. An army without discipline is a rabble. A society bereft of discipline is likely to plunge into
chaos and anarchy. If the players in the playground do not obey the rules of the game and the
order of the captain they are sure to lose the game. By observing discipline strictly the players
can reach the higher of their glory. Discipline is absolutely necessary in strictly the players can
reach the height of their glory. Discipline is absolutely necessary in schools, colleges, and other
educational institutions. No educational institutions can run and do well without discipline.
Similarly, the students cannot learn anything good if they do not obey the rules of their
institutions. Educational institutions are the best places to infuse the idea of discipline into the
minds of students. A family without discipline is sure to suffer chaos and unhappiness. In
different walks of our life we also find the necessity of discipline. For example, when we go to a
market or to shop to by things or to a railway station to buy tickets, we often see large crowds. In
such a situation, if everyone tries to get his thing first, there will surely be chaos and no one will
get what he wants. If, on the other hand, they form a queue each of them will get his things
without trouble.

Conclusion: Discipline is the root of all other virtues in our life. It is the secret of success. Life
without it is like a ship without a rudder. Without it our life will be at hazards. Life which is not
consistent with discipline is sure to ruin. So, all of us should be the staunch performer of
discipline from the very beginning of life.

My Daily Life

Introduction: It is the duty of every one to prepare a routine of work that will help him to do
everything in time. To make the proper use of our time it is absolutely necessary to have daily
routine. For a student, it is all the more necessary. I am a student. I have a routine of my own. I
strictly follow it.

My daily life in the morning: With the break of dawn my day begins. I do not forget to observe
the proverb:

“Early to bed and early to rise,

Makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.”

So, it is my habit to rise early in the morning. After rising from bed I usually brush my teeth,
wash my hands, face and feet and then say my morning prayer. After my prayer I go to the open
field to take physical exercise. After taking physical exercise, I get back home. Then I take my
breakfast which mother keeps ready for me. When my breakfast is over, I go to my reading room
to prepare my day’s lessons. I stay there three hours at a stretch with complete devotion to
studies.

At School hours: At 10:30 a.m. I get myself ready to go to school. Usually I go to school at 11
a.m. I spend valuable five hours over there daily. I take my seat in the front bench and listen
attentively to what my teachers say. Our school starts at 12:00 noon and gets over at 4:30 p.m.
During the school hours I remain very busy with my studies.

Afternoon work: When the school is over, I come back home direct. After changing my school
dress, washing my hands and face I take some light refreshment and merrily go to the field to
play with my friends.

At night: Coming back from playground I take ablution and say evening prayer. After it I go to
my reading room and study with the deep attention to prepare my lessons for the next day. At
9:30 p.m. I generally take my supper. After supper I say my Esha prayer. Before retiring to bed I
listen to the Television or Radio which provides me with charming songs and music. I enjoy
them until I feel drowsy. This is how I spend my time every day.

Conclusion: A well regulated daily life is a must for everybody to reach the goal of life. Without
making and maintaining a regulated daily life none can expect to succeed in life. So, everybody
should have a daily routine and follow it strictly.
A Journey by Boat

Introduction: A journey by boat is very pleasant as well as interesting. At the same time it is
something like a thrilling adventure to man living in a city. Pent up in a noisy and crowded city
like Dhaka, I naturally jumped at the suggestion of some of my friends’ contemplation for a
journey by boat.

Time and preparation: It was the month of October, 2010. We made our journey from Dhaka
Sadarghat to Munshigonj. We were six in number. We hired a large boat and made all possible
preparation for this journey. The day was nice. The river was calm and quiet.

Description of the journey: We started our journey at 12 noon. The boatman began to row the
boat and the boat was moving swiftly. Gentle breeze was blowing. The small waves were beating
against it. The ripples of the river made a sweet murmuring sound. While passing through, we
enjoyed the beautiful sights on both the sides of the river. At about 3 p.m. our boat touches the
ghat of a village market. We got down from the boat and bought a large ‘Hilsha fish’. The
boatman cooked it and we had a nice meal. After resting for a while we started our journey
again. Then the evening came with all its beauties and glories. The last rays of the setting sun
reflected on the calm water that enhanced the beauty or the river more affluently. We got on the
roof of the boat and enjoyed the grand sight of the nature. The crimson rays of the setting sun
added to the beauty of the green fields charmed us. After seven hours, journey we reached
Munshigonj ghat at about 6 p.m. Some of our friends were waiting for us at the ghat. They
accorded us a hearty reception.

The return journey: We spent a happy time with them. After a lapse of about two hours we
again got into the boat and started our journey. Our return journey was equally pleasant. The boat
was passing very gently. It was a moon-lit night. All my friends came out of the boat and sat on
the roof. The moon’s beam flooded the whole river and filled it with uncommon beauty. Out of
joy one of my friends began singing a sweet song. I thought I was in a dream land where only
joy and beauty reign. The boatman also began to sing:-

“Row, row, row, the boat, gently down the stream,

Merrily, merrily, merrily, Life is but a dream”.

When the night advanced, we entered into the cabin and lie down and fell asleep. The next
morning when we woke up it was just daylight. Our boat reached the Sadarghat. We got down
from the boat. Thus, our journey by boat finished to a happy end.

Conclusion: The journey by boat is really a pleasant one. It provides us a lot thrill and pleasure
that cannot be described but to be felt only. Such a pleasure of a journey which we undertook
will never efface from memory. Really this journey by boat will supply us serene delight for all
time to come.

A Journey by Bus
Introduction: A journey by bus is an interesting pursuit to me. A few days ago I had an
opportunity to make a Journey by bus. It was my first as well as the most pleasant bus Journey of
my life.

Times and Occasion: It was the month of January. My Annual Examination got over. I had
recess for some days. My parents decided to go to my uncle’s house in Jamalpur by bus. Hearing
the decision my heat danced with joy. On the fixed day we reached the bus station in due time
and got into the bus.

Description of the journey: It was winter. There was pleasant sunshine. The bus started
punctually at 7 A.M. I, keeping myself aloof, sat beside a window and looked outside through it.
The sun was rising with all its splendid beauty. Dewdrops on the soft grass and meadows were
glittering like pearls. I enjoyed these scenes and sights with a cheerful mind. I enjoyed these
scenes and sights with a cheerful mind. Things come to my vision and disappeared in the twinkle
of an eye. Everything on either side seemed running swiftly to opposite direction. While the bus
was running through the forest the tall trees with green leaves over head gave a nice view. I was
really charmed at the green panoramic beauties of nature. It filled my heart with great joy. The
bus ran at a stretch without stopping for two hours. Then it stopped at Bhayra. There was a
restaurant by the road side. We got down from the bus and had light refreshment there.

After sometimes the bus began its journey again crossing the green fields on both the sides of the
road. Here and there I saw cattle grazing and farmers working in the field. At 12 noon we
reached Jamalpur and thus our journey came to a happy end. Our return journey was equally a
pleasant one.

Conclusion: The journey by bus was really a pleasant one. It gives us a lot of pleasure. The
journey by bus that I under took left a permanent impression in my mind. I never forget the
sweet memory of this journey. The scene of the memorable journey will never efface from
memory still it peeps into my mind when I become tired of the mechanical urban life.

A journey by Train

Introduction: In modern days man remains preoccupied with his daily activities and worldly
affairs. He has no time to enjoy the beauty of nature and refresh himself. But the journey by train
may serve him well if he wants to escape the monotonous urban life and pass the time in the
midst of natural beauty.

Time and occasion: My annual examination got over. I had recess for some days. During this
time of the year the weather is good enough to make a journey. Incidentally I, with some of my
friends took a sudden decision to go my sister’s house in Chittagong by train. Accordingly, on
the appointed day we reached Kamalapur railway station by taxi before sunrise. We bought our
tickets and got into the train. The guard blew the whistle, waved his green flag and the train
began to move.

Description of the journey: The train began running at a full speed. I am fond of scenic beauty
from the very beginning of my life. I, keeping myself aloof, sat beside a window and looked
outside through it. The sun was rising with all its splendid beauty. Dew drops on the soft grass of
meadows were glittering like pearls. I enjoyed these scenes and sights with a joyful mind. By this
time the train was moving through rural areas. I gazed and gazed at the house, trees, meadows
with golden crops and other panoramic view with a cheerful mind. Things came to my vision and
disappeared in the twinkle of an eye.

My mind was full of joy. I looked and looked through the window. Everything seemed running
swiftly to opposite direction. The train ran at full speed. Now and then it crossed a bridge over a
river with a chattering noise. As it was an express train, it touched only at a few big stations. At
about noon when the train entered the Chittagong district I felt great joy seeing the hills on either
side of the line as I had not seen a hill before. After eight hours journey, at last our train reached
Chittagong railway station at about 1 p.m. We got down from the train and went to my sister’s
house by taxi. Our return journey was equally pleasant one.

Conclusion: The pleasant and enjoyable journey lasted for a few hours. Despite that the journey
left a permanent impression in my mind. I never forget the sweet memory of this journey. The
scene of the memorable journey peeps into my mind in the moment of solitude when I become
tired of the mechanical urban life.

Your favorite hobby

Introduction: Hobby is an interesting pursuit other than one’s main occupation. It is usually
followed during leisure. It does not bring money but it brings immense pleasures and joys to us.
It is necessary to make our life enjoyable and cheerful. Without it life becomes dull and
monotonous.

My choice: Different persons have different choices. Some choose gardening, some like drawing
picture, some like painting; while other like rearing birds or catching fish, collecting stamps and
so on. But whatever be the hobby, it has its own values. A person chooses his hobby according to
his own linking. I am a student of class IX. Like others, I have also my hobby and it is gardening.

Reason for my choice: One may wonder why I should give time and energy to such an
unproductive work. One may say it is a mere waste of time and energy. I do not feel or think it
so. The one or two hours that I spend in my garden are not lost. It strengthens my body and
refreshes my mind. Every day in the morning I feel a great pleasure when I see my garden
adorned with flowers. The flowers in the garden look like stars in the sky. I am charmed at their
beauty and my heart dances with joy when they tossing their heads in gentle breeze. At night
when the sweet scent of flowers comes into my room with air, it makes me very happy and fills
up mind with heavenly peace. That is why; I choose gardening as my hobby. No other hobby can
afford me more pleasure than it.

How I work with my hobby: My garden is in front of our house. Everybody in the afternoon I
go to my garden with a spade or hoe and work there. I usually turn or dig the earth and make it
fit for planting flower plants. I also pull out weeds and grasses from the garden. I have put a
fence around it so that cattle or naughty children cannot do any harm to the plants. I water the
plants everyday in the afternoon. I have all kinds of flower-plants in my garden such as rose,
chameli, shefali, sunflower, dahlia, beli etc.

Usefulness of my hobby: A hobby gives pleasure as well as instruction. It makes a man active
and strong. A man who has a hobby does not spend his spare time in idleness. He engages
himself in some useful works. It increases one’s knowledge too. If he likes gardening, he will
have to know something about the flowers and plant life. Working in the garden is also a sort of
physical exercise which improves his health. It gives joy to the man who owns it as well as to
others who see it. The hobby occupies his mind so much so that it leaves hardly any room for
evil thoughts to grow and thrive in mind.

Conclusion: Gardening as a hobby is really a great source of joy and pleasure. It makes our body
strong and mind cheerful. It gladdens our mind and purifies our soul. The original parents of
mankind in their innocent state perhaps placed for this very reason in the Garden of Eden.

The Floods of Bangladesh

Introduction: The unusual swelling of water that overflows the banks of the rivers and
submerging a vast area of land is called flood. It is a natural calamity. It is sometimes called
deluge. It is devastating and horrible when causes a colossal loss to lives and properties.
Bangladesh, being a land of rivers, often falls victims to floods almost every year.

Causes: Floods causes of various reason. Excessive and continued heavy rainfall is the main
cause of flood in our country. When there is heavy rain for a number of days the rivers cannot
hold and carry down so much water to the sea. As a result, the water overflows the bank of rivers
and submerges a vast area of land. Sometimes heavy rushed of water running down from the
mountains gives rise to spate in the rivers. Again, melting of snow in the mountains and tidal
bore of the sea create flood. Recently the sudden release of water from the Farakka barrage at the
upper during rainy season overflows rivers and floods the country.

Merits: Floods do immense good to us. They make our soil alluvial and fertile. As such our soil
becomes suitable for growing more and better crops. They wash away all sorts of rubbishes and
purify the surface of the earth.

Bad effects of floods: In spite of doing good floods often bring untold miseries to our country by
damaging our crops and properties. It also disrupts the communication network and causes
untold miseries of our people. Thousands of people become homeless, helpless and suffer greatly
for want of shelter, food and many other things.

After effect: Famine and pestilence break out in the wake of floods as there is acute scarcity of
food and pure drinking water. People often drink dirty water as a result of which epidemics break
out in the shape of cholera, diarrhea, dysentery etc. The price of all daily necessaries goes up.

Some notable floods: The floods that took place in 1954, 1961, 1968, 1974, 1985, 1988, 1998,
created much havoc. But havoc created by most devastating flood of 1988 beggars description. It
surpassed all the previous records of losses and distresses.
Flood control measures: Firstly, by building dams and embankments across the rivers floods
may be brought under control. Secondly, by dredging the river beds from time to time and
thereby depending the rivers occasional flood may be controlled to some extent. It is
encouraging to note that the government of Bangladesh is fully aware of it and has already taken
several measures to control floods in the country.

Conclusion: Ours is an agricultural country. Our national economy and the prosperity of our
people largely depend on agriculture. So, the government of Bangladesh should take both short-
term and long-term measures to control floods so that they may not cause the damage of our
crops, cattle, houses and properties.

The wonders and blessings or modern science

Introduction: The age we live in is an age of science indeed. Wherever we look-land, water and
air we can see the gifts or blessings of science. Science has made our life easy and comfortable.
Everywhere we can see the glorification of science.

Wonders of science: Science, in its rapid progress, goes on creating wonder after wonder. In
fact, the wonders of modern science are too many to describe here.

Electricity is the first wonder of modern science. It is a great source of power and energy. It has
brought about a great change in man’s life. Modern civilization is unconcealed without
electricity. Mobile or Telephone is another wonder of modern science. It helps a man to talk with
any one sitting in any corner of the wonder. Wireless or radio is another great wonder of modern
science. It has made us possible to hear the human voice from any part of the world. Another one
of the greatest wonder of the modern science is Television. It enables us to see and enjoy events,
scenes, plays or any other thing sitting in our drawing room thousands of miles away.

Again, the invention of radar is another wonder of modern science. It helps us to detect the
advancement of ships, planes and the likes. Recently the invention of Rocket is also a wonder of
science. It has made space travel easy. With its helps today man can fly anywhere even to a
moon. Nuclear energy is, perhaps, the most wonderful of all the achievements of modern
science. It has made possible in making atom bomb, hydrogen bomb and the missiles.

Besides these, Computer, internet, X-ray’s, ECG, Radio Therapy etc are the wonders of modern
science too.

Its uses: The uses of modern science can be seen and felt in everyday life and everywhere in the
world. In mills and factories, industries, agricultural, medical, transport communication
everywhere we can see the uses of modern science. Modern civilization would come to a
standstill it there was no electricity. Life would face its extreme crises if the modern amenities of
life are neglected. Agricultural and industrial development has been possible because of modern
science. In fact we cannot live or do without science.

Abuses: Nothing is of unmixed blessing. By the invention of Atom bomb, hydrogen bomb,
missiles, explosives men may efface the human race and its beautiful creation in the world. Atom
bomb used in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War II has buried the 2 populous and
prosperous cities of Japan in no time. The use of Hydrogen bomb may bring the total destruction
of a country and a nation in t he twinkle of an eye.

Conclusion: In fact, we hardly know much we owe to science in the daily affairs of our life. Life
without modern science cannot be conceived today. Modern science is like Aladdin’s lamp. It
does not what was supposed to be impossible yesterday. Where it will end nobody can say, but
this much can be impossible yesterday. Where it will end nobody can say, but this much can be
said that it will go on working and creating much more wonders in the days to come.

The Rainy Season of Bangladesh

Introduction: Bangladesh is a land of verities of seasons. The rainy season is one of them. It
comprises the Bengali months of Ashar and Sravan. After a long spell of hot weather the rainy
season comes with her showers to cool the earth. This season is of paramount importance in an
agricultural country like Bangladesh. It influences on our life and culture to a great extent.

Causes: The rainy season is caused by monsoon. The south west monsoon that blows in over
Bangladesh from the Bay of Bengal brings much vapor with it. As a result, she receives a heavy
rainfall during the monsoon.

Description: During the rainy season the sky often remains cloudy with patches of black clouds
that hover across the sky close to the earth surface. Violent blasts of wind blow. Lighting flashes
and thunder roars. The sun remains hidden behind the clouds and it rains in torrents. Sometimes
there is continuous downpour for days together. Then water overflows the banks of the rivers.
The fields go under water and looks like a vast sheets of water.

Advantages: The rainy season undoubtedly does us immense good. The nature assumes a new
appearance at the advent of rainy season. Trees and plants come into foliage. The landscape
appears green. The rain water washes away the filth and purifies the surface of the earth. It
lessens the intense heat of summer and simulates the growing of vegetation and crops. It makes
our land alluvial, fertile and suitable for growing better crops. Hilsha and other fishes are
available in this season. The rainy season facilitates the navigation system in the country and
thereby fosters our trade and commerce. It also makes everything lively and the atmosphere
becomes clean and free of dust.

Disadvantages: The rainy season no doubt does us much good. But it does not an unmixed
blessing all the times. It has disadvantages too. During this season the roads at the country side
become muddy and slippery and as such we cannot go from one place to another on foot easily.
Sometimes heavy rainfall overflows the banks on the rivers and causes floods. Floods damage
our crops; wash away the heads of our cattle, houses and properties. It also hampers our normal
life.

Conclusion: The rainy season is the most important and useful of all the seasons in our country.
This season is closely related to the economy of the country and prosperity of our people. Our
agriculture mainly depends on it. It helps the natural to gain a new life. So whatever may be the
disadvantages of the rainy season, this season is hailed by the people of Bangladesh. We always
welcome this season and enjoy its beauty.

Memories of my Childhood Days

The day gone is gone forever. Only memories remain in human mind. These memories make cry
sometimes and make laugh sometimes. Nevertheless, we never can cut out them from life. For
that reason, childhood memories are the sweetest in man’s life. I have also some childhood
memories in my life.

Childhood memories are the sweetest time of human mind. My childhood memories are not les
sweet. Nobody can forget his/her childhood memories whether pleasant or painful. I can still
remember my childhood very much. I was born in a village named Nagpur under Nandail
Upazila where I passed my childhood. Many things happened in my childhood days, but I cannot
remember all of them. My father was a government employee. Ours was a simple house where I
lived happily in the midst of my parents, sisters and brothers. There was another member in my
family. She is my grandmother. She was very affectionate. She loved me most. I am shocked that
I lost her a few years ago. Nevertheless, I am lucky that even now my father and mother are
alive.

There is a ground in front of my house. Paddy and other crops are grown in the ground. The
golden color of the paddy field attracted me much. Every afternoon after coming from school, I
went to my playground through the paddy field. The paddy plants touched me. I got mixed in the
midst of beauty of nature. I shall never forget those moments of my life. I can remember the
happy days that passed with my friends. I often played with them. I could not forget the very first
day at school. My heart began to faster when I was taken to the Headmaster. Nevertheless, he
won my heart with his smiling face and gentle words. The teachers were very affectionate. My
classmates were also very friendly. Every afternoon I played with them in the field. I have many
sweet memories of these afternoons.

In the afternoon, I took part in games. Sometimes, my playmates and I arranged sports
competition. The boys of far villages came to take part in games. Shahid, Karim, Zia, Shaukat,
Suraj, Mohar were my close childhood friends and playmates. I shall never forget them and those
days.

Another interesting memory of my childhood is going to village market. I used to go to the


market with father. It was one of the biggest markets in our locality. There were many shops in
the market. I returned home with a bag of bought things.

I still remember those days when I was learning to ride a bicycle. I fell and bruised myself
several times but I never gave up. Finally, I was able to join my friends going around the
neighbourhood on my bike.

My village primary school was also another interesting place. I used to go to school with my
friends. We would learn our lessons with great noise.
However, I have a bitter experience of my childhood. Once I was sunk in our nearby canal when
I was returning home from school by boat.

I feel delight when I remember the memories of my childhood. The days, the months, the years
go away. My duties are increasing day by day. I always look for the days of my childhood.
Nevertheless, I know that it is not possible to get back those days. Therefore, it should not kill
present days thinking the past days. Because, past is always past.

Population Problem in Bangladesh

Bangladesh is a country of south-east Asia. It is well known as a developing country. There are
many problems in this country, which are said to be major obstacles in the development of this
country. Excessive Population is said to be the worst among all current problems. If we compare
to the global population we will see why population causes such damage to the development of
Bangladesh. The area of Bangladesh is near to 55 thousand square miles or 1, 47, 570 square
kilometer. The current population of Bangladesh is approximately over 160 million and will
exceed 200 million within 2020. The average population density per square kilometer is almost
1000. Even a very rich country would have been in deep troubles if they have to handle such
mass population in such short land. So whenever the government tends to take any developing
steps, they seem to fell into shortage of resources for such huge population. As a result the
authentic development is just getting being delayed and hampered a lot.

Population explosion means rapid growth of birth rate without any check. It is a constant threat
to our environment and existence. It is the greatest problem is Bangladesh. Bangladesh is one of
the most densely populated countries in the world. Her population is increasing day by day.
Every year more than two million people are being added to our population. It has become a
serious problem for us. In fact, it is the number one problem of our country. This problem is now
out of control.

Though Bangladesh is a small country, it has huge population. The land area of Bangladesh is
less than her vast population. About 850 people live per square kilometer here. For this reason,
Bangladesh in considered as over populated country. The population in our country is increasing
in an alarming rate. There are many reasons of increasing population in our country. The main
reasons of increasing population are ignorance, superstitions, early marriage and lack of female
education. Most of the people of our country are illiterate. They do not know about the problems
of over population. Because of being illiterate, they are not aware of family planning. Besides,
religious superstitions obstruct our people in taking family planning. Early marriage is also
responsible for increasing population.

Over population creates many problems. The area of Bangladesh is small in proportion to her
vast population. Overpopulation growth has many negative effects on our life and existence. It
hampers our economic progress. It also pollutes our environment. Though population is an asset
of a country, it has now become a burden for our country. It creates the problem of food, shelter,
health, nutrition, unemployment, treatment, communication etc. Over population obstructs to our
national development. The whole nation has been suffering the grievous consequence due to over
population. The country will fall in acute poverty and people will lead very unhappy and
miserable life in near future if it is not controlled. It should inspire our people to adopt family
planning. Our womenfolk should be educated.

However, we must come forward to control this over growth of population. We should take some
measures to control it. People should make aware of adopting family planning and people must
be aware about the serious consequences of high birth rate. Early marriage must be stopped. No
family should be allowed to have more than two children. Our people must be educated. If they
are educated, they will surely try to keep their families planned. Our womenfolk should also be
given training on family planning. They must be aware about the negative effect of over
population. Mass media like radio, television and newspaper can play a vital role in this regard.

Therefore, this growth rate of population must be checked. Improvement of our country is
impossible unless this problem is solved. But, the government alone cannot solve this problem.
For this, all the people of Bangladesh and the government should join hands to control this
population growth at any cost.

Duties of a Student

Essay Introduction:

Students are the repository of all that is vital and vigorous in society. They are the vital forces in
the social organism. If the students do not come up to our expectations simply because they are
led astray and their vigor is drained away, the radiance of our hopes is likely to be dimmed. It is
essential, therefore, that students should realize this and make full preparations for playing their
proper role in society and answering the call of the time to come.

Duties of students:

This leads us to the consideration of the duties which the students should discharge in order to
become good citizens of tomorrow. When we think about the duties the terms ‘rights’ naturally
occurs to us. The students of today, unfortunately, are conscious of only their rights. It is good
that they should have a consciousness of these too, for they are the basic conditions of freedom.
But, what is more important to understand is the fact that rights do not stand by themselves. They
grow out of duties.

Hence the need is to be more conscious about duties than about rights. Duties of students can be
divided into four categories: (1) Duties to themselves, (2) Duties to the family, (3) Duties to the
society and the (4) Duties to the humanity.

Duties towards themselves:

The first duty of students is towards themselves. They should try to have good health, for a
sound mind lives in a sound body. One cannot do anything great without good health, however
much one wants to do so. For this purpose they should take part in games and sports. They
should be guided by the maxim “Read while you read and play while you play.” The second duty
which they owe to themselves is character formation. Building up of good habits in the
beginning is very necessary. The good habits that are formed in the student life last throughout.
And character is nothing but a bundle of habits.

‘Simple living and high thinking1 must be the motto of their lives. They should develop decency,
good manners and good behavior towards others. Thirdly, they should pay full attention to their
studies, for it is their studies which shall determine their future course of life.

Duties towards the family:

Besides duties towards themselves, students owe duties towards their parents, elders and
teachers. Parents who are responsible for their having come into the beautiful, delightful world
have a moral claim upon their children, who should do everything to repay at least some part of
the irreparable debt they owe to their parents. They should not do anything that tarnishes the
image of their family.

Next to parents come teachers to whom students woe irreparable debt. The teacher who guides
youth to course through this life as a respectable member of society deserves the most sanctified
respect of the students.

Duties towards society and nation:

Man is a social being. He is what he can be; what he intends to become due to society. Social
service leads to the liberation of the self which in turn leads to the ennoblement of the soul and
the enlargement of the spirit. Besides these spiritual gains, students can get experience of an
education in harmonious social living. They can also eke out their resources by earning some
little money as a result of their social service. They can help in the eradication of social evils like
infant marriages, casteism, untouchability etc.

During their vacation students can organize night schools in villages and thus be helpful in
solving the problem of illiteracy. They can instill political consciousness in the villagers and can
tell them their rights in the democratic set up of the country. During times of war students can
organize civil defence operations and look after the families of these who are actively engaged in
fighting against the enemy.

Duties towards humanity:

Service to humanity is the crying need of the hour. Nationalism is an utterly crude term in the
context of the modern times. The world is a family; this should ever remain on the conscious
plan of their minds. Thanks to science that it has conquered barriers of space. Students of one
country can communicate and establish contacts with students of foreign countries. They should
try to develop sense of accommodation for the people of all countries without discrimination on
the basis of social or political systems of their countries or the faith or religion of their societies.
In the world of today our lot is closely connected with the lot of people of every other country.
Students should help in the formation of effective world public opinion against cases of injustice,
tyranny of oppression in any part of the world.

Students and politics:

Politics is an integral part of our life. What Mahatma Gandhi once said of himself, “I take part in
politics because it encircles us like the coils of snake” may with the same degree of emphasis be
said of every one of us including students. And hence they should be allowed full participation in
the policies of their country and that of the world.

Conclusion—duties and rights:

We have put before the students a plethora (superfluity) of duties. In fact, the performance of
these duties is very essential particularly now when free India demands active participation of
students in the task of social advancement and national development. But the society and the
government should not lose sight of their duties and responsibilities towards students.

Those suffering from financial hardships should be rendered all possible financial help; for the
proper execution of their studies. Employment after studies should be ensured with perfect
fairness and non-discrimination.

Computer

A computer is an electronic device. It is one of the gifts of modern science. A computer can take
input from the user and process this input data and if need. It follows the instructions unit in
which we input. It takes input through keyboard, mouse etc and then it process the input data and
give output on display screen and store data if need.

Computer was not invented overnight. It took long time and hard labor to invent computer. A
British professor named Charles Babeg invented this machine.

There are three parts in a computer. They are 1. Central processing unit, 2. Input unit and 3.
Output unit. The central processing unit is the brain of the computer. The input part receives
signals and output part gives the result.

Computers are of two kinds- the analogue and the digital. An analogue computer can solve
the different problems of mathematics within a short time. A digital computer can do varieties of
thing. Now-a-days a computer means a digital computer.

First of all, the computer has become the primary tool and medium of writing in the home and
workplace. More families have computers and use e-mail than ever before and almost all
businesses where our students may end up working use both for writing and communication.
Otherwise, word processing software makes the revision process easier to visualize if students
can see how words and blocks of text can easily be deleted or rearranged on the screen.
The Internet can provide real audiences and contexts for writing for our students if they create
web pages or engage in e-mail discussion or chat. Some students pay more attention to the style
and tone of their writing if it’s for an audience other than the teacher. Indeed, some say that
network-based multimedia classroom that helps students use their own expertise to engage with
and help the class.

We use it in every sphere of our life. Now people can get access to many libraries, books,
journals and various kinds of information in a minute through a computer. We cannot suffer from
any communication gap or loneliness, if we have a computer. We use internet through computers
for sending mails, keep in touch with friends and family members through various kinds of blogs
and social sites such as twitter or Face book. Thus computer is very important in the present
world. Rather, it is a need like a pen or pencil for a student in a school or classroom.

It has lessened our work loads, saved time and energy. It has made our life easy and comfortable.
It is a part and parcel of our life. So, mouse, CPU, keyboard, monitor etc. is the word of love.

My Native village

Introduction: The name of our village is Nagpur. It is a renowned village in the district of
Mymensingh. It bears the testimony to rich heritage of the glorious past. Nature has adorned her
with green trees and meadows. The beautiful scenes and the natural environment feed the eyes of
the viewers. To me it is the happy land of dream.

Description:

a. Site and situation:- Our native village stands in the district of Mymensingh. Its land area is
about four square kilometers with the vast green field on all sides. Two semi-pucca high roads
run through the village leading their destinations to all directions. The houses stand like vigilant
guards on the either side of the roads. The green trees and plants in the village are all the more
charming. A small river has increased the beauty of our village.

b. Life and occupation of the villagers:- Nearly three thousand people live in our village. Most
of them are Muslims with only a few families of Hindus. Both the Hindus and the Muslims live
together in peace here. The villagers are simple, innocent and free from modern vices. Most of
them belong to middle class. Agriculture is the main occupation of the villagers. About 80% of
people are agriculturists. Some traders, service holders, lowers, doctors, and teachers also live
here. Most of the villagers are active and energetic. They always try to develop the village in
order to make it an ideal one.

c. Educational institutions, Markets and other institutions:- We have some amenities of


modern life here. We have, for example, three primary schools, One Boys’ High School, One
Girl’s High School, One Dakhil Madrasah and a post office. All of which are located at the
centre at of the village. A market also stands in the middle of the village where the necessaries of
our daily life are available.
d. Communication:- The means of communication of our village is highly developed. A semi
pucca road runs though the village linking the inter-district road that leads to different directions
to other districts. One can easily go along this road to the district town and the nearest railway
station Gofargoan. Within the village there are about 10 kilometers of semi pucca roads
connected with five cyclone centers, market and educational institutions.

e. Climate:- The climate of our village is moderate. It is quite congenial to the health of the
people all the year. So, most of the people of our village are healthy.

Conclusion: I am very proud of my village. It is an ideal village in Bangladesh. The villagers


live here in peace and amity. I often go to my village though I live Dhaka. My village, to me, is
the sweetest place on the earth. I have a great love and affection for it.

Television

Television is an electronic machine of entertainment. It is one of the greatest discoveries of


modern science. The word television has come from the latine word ‘tele’ and greek word
‘vision’. Tele means distance or far and vision means sight. Therefore television means ‘far
sight’. Like telephone, television is a wonderful gift of science after the invention of electricity.
Today, television is an important means of entertainment and education. It has the advantages of
both radio and cinema. We can see pictures and listen to their conversations simultaneously.

Television was first invented by John Logic Baird, a famous scientist of Scotland. Mr. Baird
demonstrated his invention at the Royal Institute of Great Britain in 1926.

The television mechanism is very complex. A television camera has photo electric cells which
receive pictures and transform them into electric dots and lines. Those dots and lines are then
transmitted to the receiver set. The receiver set again transforms those dots, and lines into
pictures. Originally only black and white pictures were produced in television. But now,
coloured pictures are seen in TV.

Through television, modern man has conquered time and space. Through television we can see
events, dramatic performances, musical functions, speeches and exhibitions which are held in
distant places. At the same time we can hear the music and the talk of those speakers, musicians
or of the actors in the drama.

Television is a medium of entertainment. We do not take trouble, of going outdoors to see a


drama or a musical functions or a foot, ball or cricket match. We can see these things at our
home on television screens. Many far things are also telecast on TV screens. Speeches of V.I.Ps.,
important dialogues, sessions in Parliament, launching of rockets and space-crafts etc. are
directly telecast. By watching them, we feel as if the entire world has become our next door
neighbor. But now-a-days there are many channels operating for entertainment purpose.

The educative role of television cannot be denied. The Bangladesh Open University Programmes
are being shown in the national channel of the television (BTV). Thousands of students are being
benefited through this programme. Now many purpose, Television programmes are made to fight
many social evils such as illiteracy, dowry problem, superstition, ill-health, and ignorance,
political corruptions etc. Informative channels such as Discovery, Geographic, Animal Planet
etc. have educative value.

Television has some demerits also. Young people most often watch the exciting films on
violence and crime. They also see the obscene films and naked dances. All these things leave
a damaging effect on their mind. Very often television exercises bad influence upon the
youngsters. Rape, murder and violence are adopted by those young people because of the
adverse impact of television.

Television is an important medium of mass communication. It plays an important role in


our daily life.

Impertive Sentence-এর Active voice-এর প্রথমে বা শেষে যদি adverb থাকে তবে Passive করার
সময় তাকে বাক্যের শেষে রেখে দিতে হয়। যেমন—
Active : Help him now.
Passive : Let him be helped now.
Active : Always speak the truth.
Passive : Let the truth be spoken always.
Active : Shut the door immediately.
Passive : Let the door be shut immediately.
Active : Today cut the tree.
Passive : Let the tree be cut today (by you).
Impertive Sentence-যদি Negative হয় তবে Passive voice করার সময় বাক্যের প্রথমে let not
ব্যবহার করতে হয়। অন্যান্য নিয়ম পূর্বের মতোই থেকে যায়।
Active : Do not break the temple.
Passive : Let not the temple be broken (by you).
Active : Don’t post the letter.
Passive : Let not the letter be posted (by you).
Active : Don’t open the door.
Passive : Let not the door be opened (by you).
Complex Sentence :
Complex Sentence-কে Passive voice করতে হলে Principal clause ও Sub-ordinate clause উভয়ের
Passive করতে হয়। Principal clause-এর সাধারণত Object থাকে না। তাই উক্ত অংশের Object
হিসেবে It নিতে হয়। যেমন—
Active : I know that you helped him.
Passive : It is known to me that he was helped by you.
Active : I thought that Babul had sung a song.
Passive : It was thought by me that a song had been sung by Babul.

জেনে রাখো: Complex Sentence-এর Sub-ordinate clause-এর যদি Object না থাকে তবে উক্ত
অংশের Passive voice করার দরকার হয় না। এ ধরনের Sentence-এর বেলায় Principal clause-এর
subject হিসেবে It নিয়েও Passive voice করা যায়। তা ছাড়া sub-ordinate clause-এর that-সহ
পরের সবটু কুকে Passive করার সময় বাক্যের Subject করে Passive করা যায়। যেমন—
Active : I know that the he is a good boy
Passive : It is known to me that he is a good boy.
Or : That he is a good boy is known to me.

জেনে রাখো: And দ্বারা দুটি বাক্য যুক্ত হলে যদি and-এর উভয় অংশে Object থাকে তবে উভয়ই
নিয়ম অনুযায়ী পরিবর্ত ন হবে। আর and-এর পরবর্তী অংশে কোনো Object না থাকলে প্রথম অংশ
বা পূর্ববর্তী অংশ পরিবর্তি ত হয়। যেমন—
Active : He ate rice and went to school.
Passive : Rice was eaten by him and (he) went to school.
Active : He ate rice and gave me a pen.
Passive : Rice was eaten and I was given a pen by him.
অনেক সময় Infinitive দ্বারাও Voice change করা যায়। যেমন—I don’t like to be hated.
A bank is going to be opened by the manager.
Complex Sentence :
Complex Sentence-কে Passive voice করতে হলে Principal clause ও Sub-ordinate clause উভয়ের
Passive করতে হয়। Principal clause-এর সাধারণত Object থাকে না। তাই উক্ত অংশের Object
হিসেবে It নিতে হয়।
লক্ষণীয়: কতগুলো Verb-এর পরে by preposition না বসে with, at, to ইত্যাদি বসে। যেমন—
Gratify = gratify with,
please = pleased with,
satisfy = satisfied with,
bless = blessed with,
glad = glad at,
know = known to,
surprise = surprised at,
fill = filled with ইত্যাদি।
Known verb-এর পরে to ও be উভয়ই বসে। যেমন—
He is known to me.
A tree is known by its fruits.
জেনে রাখো: অনেক সময় আত্মপরিচয় দিতে হলে বা কোনো কাজের মাধ্যমে পরিচয় দিতে হলে
known-এর পরে by বসে। একে অন্যের সঙ্গে পরিচয় অর্থে Known-এর পরে to বসে। যেমন—
Active : The boy pleased us all.
Passive : We all were pleased by the boy হবে না।
এক্ষেত্রে হবে-
Passive : We all were pleased with the boy.
Active : Your work satisfied me.
Passive : I was satisfied with your work.
Active : His conduct annoyed me.
Passive : I was annoyed at his conduct.
Active : The book contains useful information.
Passive : Useful information is contained in the book.
জেনে রাখো: অনেক সময় দেখা যায় Passive voice-এর Doer বা Agent থাকে না। এ ধরনের
বাক্যের Voice পরিবর্ত ন করতে হলে Someone, People, We, The Boy, He ইত্যাদিকে Subject হিসেবে
ব্যবহার করতে হয়। তবে কোনো কাজ যখন এক ব্যক্তি দ্বারা করা সম্ভব তখন Singular subject
নিতে হয়। আর যখন কোনো কাজ একার পক্ষে সাধারণত করা সম্ভব নয় তখন Plural subject
নিতে হয়। যেমন—
Passive : My pen was stolen.
Active : Someone stole my pen.
Passive : He is not known here.
Active : None/nobody knows him here.
Passive : He is called a liar.
Active : People/They call him a liar.
জেনে রাখো: Voice Change করার ক্ষেত্রে। নিম্নলিখিত Verb-গুলোর Passive voice হয় না। কারণ
এরা Intransitive verb : die, appear, seem, disappear, happen, belong, despair, allude, occur,
ensure, wonder, comprise, perish, refer, issue, and indulge ইত্যাদি।
Incorrect : It was appeared.
Correct : It appeared.
Incorrect : It is happened.
Correct : It happened.
Incorrect : This book is belonged to me.
Correct : This book belongs to me.
Complex Sentence :
জেনে রাখো: Active voice-এ যখন has to, had to, is going to, was going to, ought to, used to,
have got to ইত্যাদি উল্লেখ থাকে তখন Passive voice করার সময় উক্ত verb-গুলোর সঙ্গে be
ব্যবহার করতে হয়। যেমন—
Active : He has to do work.
Passive : The work has to be done by him.
Active : We ought to love our country.
Passive : Our country ought to be loved by us.
Active : They used to burn the dead body.
Passive : The dead body used to be burn by them.
কিছু ব্যতিক্রম নিয়মের Voice change:
1. Quasi-passive Verb: Quasi শব্দের অর্থ half বা অর্ধেক। অর্থাৎ Half-passive = Quasi-passive.
অতএব বলা যায়, যেসব Verb Half passive-এর অর্থ প্রকাশ করে তাকে Quasi-passive verb বলে।
এদের Passive করতে হলে নিম্নলিখিত নিয়ম অনুসরণ করতে হবে:
১ নম্বর সূত্র: Sub + Be verb + Complement + When (if) + It/they +Be verb + Verb-এর Past
participle.
২ নম্বর সূত্র: Subject + Be verb + Verb-এর Past participle + Complement.
Active : Honey tastes sweet.
Passive : Honey is sweet when it is tasted.
(১ নম্বর সূত্র)
Honey is tasted sweet. (২ নম্বর সূত্র)
Active : The bed feels soft.
Passive : The bed is soft when it is felt
The bed is felt soft.
Active : This story reads funny.
Passive : This story is funny when it is read.
This story is read funny.
2. Reflexive Verb:
যে verb-এর Subject এবং Object একই ব্যক্তি তাকে Reflexive verb বলে এবং Object-টিকে
Reflexive object বলে। একে Subject করা যায় না। একে by-এর পরেই রেখে দিতে হয়। যেমন—
Active : He hurt himself.
Passive : He was hurt by himself.
Active : She killed herself.
Passive : She was killed by herself.
Active : He poisoned himself.
Passive : He was poisoned by himself.
3. Factitive Object: যেসব Object ক্ষণস্থায়ী অর্থাৎ মানুষের মতামতের ওপর যাদের স্থায়িত্ব নির্ভ র
করে সেসব Object-কে Factitive object বলে। এদের স্থায়িত্ব স্বল্প বিধায় এদেরকে বাক্যের Subject
করা যায় না। তাই এদের পূর্ববর্তী Object-কে Subject করে Passive voice করতে হয়। যেমন—
Active : We made him captain .
Passive : He was made captain by us.
= Captain was made him by us হবে না।
Active : We call him a fool.
Passive : He is called a fool by us.
= A fool is called him by us হবে না।

wanted to know my experience of taking food in a restaurant.

You will feel charm to know that I had an experience of taking food in a Chinese

marriage ceremony at the canton restaurant, Mouchack Dhaka. I, along with my elder
sister Sharmin entered the restaurant. A good flavor was tickling my nose. There was a
dim light in every room. I kept looking around and listening to the fine music. However, we
soon had our seats to eat and got astonished when the foods were served. A good number of
delicious foods like chicken, mutton, pawn, fried rice, etc were served one after one
another. There were also Thai soup, corn soup, curry and what not. All the food items were
delicious and appetizing .I had to use fork and spoon. I really enjoyed the feast very much.
As it was my first experience to take Chinese food. I was really delighted .I wished you
beside me while taking food.

No more today. Hope to get your reply soon.

My cordial love to you. I received your letter yesterday. You wrote that you were awarded
a prize for the competition in general knowledge. I have become very glad to know it. Now

things of home and aboard. This will stimulate your desire to more. Newspaper is a great
source of pleasure and knowledge. It supplies almost all the current events of the world.
Besides this, to be a civilized person, you must be conscious of the social, political and
economical conditions of the present time. It is only newspaper, which can save the purpose
appropriately. By reading it you could know modern science too. There are also news about
business and sports in the newspapers. I So, I advise you to read it daily.

My dear friend Farjana,

Man is mortal. No man is immortal. One must die earlier and one must die later.But she/he
has to do some work in the world. If he did it,he is a succesful man.The news of the sudden
death of your mother has come to me as a bolt from the blue. When I visited your house
lately, I found her quite hale and hearty. But nobody can foresee the cruel hands of death
will be laid down on whom. The demise of your mother is really a rude shock and an
irrespirable loss. I realize how terribly it shakes you with sorrow. It is futile to tell you
words of consolation at this hour of bereavement would just request you to pluck up
courage and be a the loss with patience. May Allah give the departed soul eternal peace

With all the best wishes.

Dear Nisha,

At first my love to you. I hope you are keeping well. I have just received your letter. I am
glad to learn that you are preparing yourself for the ensuring SSC examination. I hope you
will do a brilliant result in the examination. This time is the best time to be prepared for
the ensuring examination. You know, now a days, there is a bad tendency among the
students not to study but to adopt unfair means in the examination. It cannot make them
perfect. It will not be able to offer them real education. But I would like to make you
cautious that you should never try to adopt unfair means in the examination. It is really
crime, which spoils a student forever. One may pass the examination by adopting unfair
means, but his future life is full of darkness. This is one thing that will break down their
career .If they cannot pass first time, they can try next. I think failure is more acceptable
than adopting unfair means. Follow my advice and you will be succeeded and benefitted.

No more to day. Convey my regards to parents and love to the younger.

My dear father,

My Salam to you and mother. Hope, you all are keeping well by the grace of almighty. I am
also well. I have not heard any news for a long time. I could not write to you during the
long period. But today I could not but write to you to tell you good news.

You will be glad to know that I stood first in the final Model test of our school. You know I
could not do very well in the pre-test examination. But after it was over, I began to study
vigorously. I got 80% marks only in Mathematics .I thought about it seriously. I found no
subject hard to me. Earlier I did not study on any subject very seriously except
Mathematics. Before our test examination I studied very well for two months. Everyday I
started to study at 6:30 p.m. closing the door of my reading room and continued up to
12:00 (midnight) with a gap of 20 minutes for supper in he middle. Every morning I
checked what I learnt the previous night through writing. I just placed the questions on the
table and wrote their answers within a fixed time. After that I myself assessed them with
the help of the answers prepared earlier by my subject teachers. You can say, I was in deep
study while night and I sat for exam in every morning. The practiced helped me so much
that I have done quite well in the Model test held after the test examination of our school. I
can assure you that if God wishes I can fulfill your expectation in the coming examination.
Now I am quite hopeful of having my SSC result with GPA 5.In the final Model Test I got
grade point 5 in every subject. And in my most favorite subjects, Mathematics and Physics,
I got 100 and 97 marks respectively. This is all about how I prepared for the coming SSC
examination.

Convey my Salam to mother and love to the younger.

Dear Arif

It is quite a ling period you have not written a single letter. However, we have received a
letter from your English teacher Mr. A D .We are much shocked to have the report that
you have failed in the first terminal examination/pretest examination. You are a
meritorious student. You won the scholarship in the junior scholarship examination. How
do you cut a sorry figure in the examination? You know all of us expect something unique
from you. Oh! You have greatly disappointed us. We suspect that you are wasting your
valuable time mixing with bad companies foolishly. But this will ruin you. You should
think about your future. Remember time once gone will never be got back. Student life is
said to be the seedtime of life. As you sow, so will you reap. Remember, you have to stand
on your own feet. If you do not use your time properly and study well, it will bring sorrows
and sufferings to you. I also want to remind you that we come of a middle class family .Our
educational expenses are borne with great difficulty by our parents. So, do not be insincere,
and inattentive. Study well. You should never mix with bad companies.

Tongi- Gazipur-1705

My dear salam
I would like to share my experience of the air journey with you.

My first flight is a memorable event of my life. I received a letter from my uncle at


chittagong together with a plane ticket. He asked me to go there and stay with them for a
couple of days. The ticket was a local flight on September 30, 2013. I reached the Zia
international Airport about one hour before the flight. I had my ticket checked and my
luggage weighed and took the boarding card.After about fifteen minutes the flight was
announced. Going along with other passeengers towards the tarmac,I boarded the plane.
My seat was by the side of a window. Just in front of me there was a sign with the words:
fasten your seat belt. No smoking.” After a few minutes the plane moved along the runway
and then began to take off. I saw outside. The houses below looked like doll houses, the
paddy fields looked like green carpets and the rivers appeared as broad lines on a drawing
sheet. The air hostess came with a tray in her hand and gave some light and delicious
refreshments. In about 40 minutes the plane landed at Chittagong Airport and we came to
our journey’s end. It was an enjoyable that filled my heart with thrill and excitement.

It brought a change and recreation in my monotonous life.


No more today.

With love.

Hope you all are well by the grace of Almighty Allah. I am also well by the grace of
Almighty Allah. I got your letter on Monday last. I am happy and glad to know that you
have passed the S.S.C. examination in the first division. Now you need to get yourself
admitted into a college. I came to know that you want to get yourself admitted into a
college. Now I am writing about it.

To get admission one should at first go to his expected college and see the admission
advertisement. .You should check if you have the minimum requirements of qualification.
If you have, you must know the last date for collection form for that college. If you need
more information, you can go to the college office. Next you have to collect admission form
and in the admission form you have to fill up all the required information’s properly.
Finally you should submit the admission form along with the necessary papers. Then you
have to pay the admission fees. After that you will have to contest an admission test.
Coming out successfully from the test you can gain admission into a college.

Hopping to have a few lines from you in reply. No more today. More when we our meeting
will be held again. With best regards to uncle and aunt and love to you and all.

At the beginning of the letter, take my heartiest love and best wishes. Hope you are hale
and hearty by the grace of Almighty Allah A letter of your at my hand.

I would like to describe to you what I did on a recent farewell party. Last Friday a farewell
party was arranged by some young boys in our locality. It was arranged by some young
boys in our locality.It was arranged to bid a farewell to a friend of us.He had been living in
our locality for more than five years.He was leaving us due to his father’s tranfer in job.I
was invited there as one of the gusets.The farewell ceremony started at 4:oo pm.A few boys
spoke on the occasion. They spoke highly of the leaving friend’s friendliness, sincerity,
honesty and so on. Some boys became very emotional.

Then I was asked to say some words on that occasion. At first I thanked the organisers of
the party. I also thanked them for inviting me to it.Moreever, I appreciated them for
arranging such a nice farewell party. Then I said some words on the friendly and co-
operative behaviour of our leaving friend. This time I also became somewhat emotional.I
finished my speech in short and came back to my seat.After this, the friend was asked to
say something. While he was speaking, his eyes were soaked with tears. Thus there was a
touching scene in the farewell party.

At last, I presented the friend a bunch of roses, embraced him and wished him best of luck.
After this, the party came to an end.

No more today. Please do write to me soon.

At the beginning of the letter, take my cordial love. I am sorry that you have been addicted
to smoking.You know that smoking is a bad habit. It does a lot of harm to us. A single puff
of cigarette smoke contains 15 billion particles of substances which are very dangerous for
health. Smoking causes cancer,heart attack and other fatal diseases. Excessive smoking
may lead a person for premature death.

I would suggest you to give up smoking just now. Firm determination of mind will help you
in this respect. Never indulge in such dangerous habit again.

Your letter is just to hand. From your letter I have come to know about your school. But
there are some differences between your school and ours. Now I am going to tell you.

Your school is located in the rural area. But ours one is in the capital city. Your school is
tin-shed where as our school is made of brick, which is a five –storied building. In your
letter you have written at you have 20 teachers but we have 43.In your school there is no
library. But we a big and rich library. Your school starts at 10 am whereas our school
begins at 8 a.m. Besides, the number of students in your school is 500 but our school has
1200 students. One thing surprised me that in your school there is no electricity. But we
cannot even spend an hour without electricity. Actually there is much difference between
your school and ours one.

am also well. So, far as I know you are not so good in English, which is the international
language. I am going to advise how you can improve your skill. English is used and
understood in almost all over the countries. If you wish to have higher education in any
subject you must know English. So try hard to improve your English.

By listening, speaking and reading books you can improve your English. I advise you to
read English newspaper and listen to English news bulletin regularly. Read English story
books and novels. Keep a notebook and write down every new word you come across. Then
write down its meaning consulting dictionary. And finally try to speak English as much as
you can. If you follow these instructions you will surely improve.

Suppose you won a quiz and the prize was a half an hours’ free ride by wide-bodied
passenger plane. Now write a letter to your friend describing the experience of the flight.

My dear Nusrat

You will be glad to know that I had won a quiz and you will be surprised to know that the
prize of it was a half an hours free ride either by a wide bodied passenger plane or a
helicopter, it would be a personal travel and I would miss many things of traveling by air.
But if I travel by the wide-bodied passenger plane I would be able to enjoy more. It is faster
than a helicopter. I would be able to use the airport. I would have the experience of taking
off and landing of the plane. Certainly I would have the experience of service facilities of
the passenger plane. So , I have decided to fly the wide bodied passenger plane. I think you
will agree with me. When the journey started I felt a little bit nervous because of the
turning of the plane. But gradually my all fears were gone away. I was very much enjoying
the flight. The roads and cities were looking like snakes. I was very astonished to see the
black clouds very much near to me. After half an hour the journey ended. In my life it was
my greatest experience. I will never forget it.

No more today. Take care.

My dear Nusrat

In your last letter you wanted to know about the use of Internet. Now I am going to tell you
about how to use the Internet. Follow he instruction and it will be easy for you.

By this time you must know how to use a computer. Using the Internet takes nothing more
than the ability to use a computer. For using Internet you have to use the particular
software.

If you click on the icon of browsing software such as the Microsoft Explorer or Netscape
Navigator, you will automatically get logged on the Internet. You will find a space for
writing the address of the web page you want to see. If you write the address, you will get to
see that page. For finding a particular page you can take the help of search engine through
which you can search for information on web pages. Yahoo and MSN and Google are the
such engines. I believe, if you follow the instructions, you will surely be able use the
Internet with ease.
Now I am sure you will be able to look for your desired information on the Internet. Let me
know about your progress.

Write a letter to your friend about the importance of communicative English

Dhaka cantt.Dhaka-1206

My dear Nusrat

Your letter of the 5th instant in to hand. In your letter you wrote about communicative
English. In the letter you have asked me to write about the advantages of it. Now I
am writing about it.

Communicative English in a newly introduced English learning method through which one
can communicate with other easily. Actually it is the purpose of any language. The method
has some advantages. In the communicative method at dents understanding power can be
tasted more then the previous method. When a student fails to understand seen or unseen
comprehension, he will be unable to answer the question that follow. A student has to fill in
the gaps of cloze test from his understanding taking word from his vocabulary. In the
previous course we got the letters and applications by heart. But in communicative English
their situations are not common. While writing we have to add something. It increases our
creative power. It encourages us to write free hand. In true sense it is the ultimate goal of
any language learning. So the importance of communicative English can never be denied.

No more today. Meet when our meeting will be held again . With best regards to your
parents and love to you and all . hoping to have a few lines from you in reply.

pleased at the entertainment that Sahrin Apu did. It was beyond my expectations. I’ve
never seen like a family like yours. All the members of your family treated me as Ma moni.
I found no difference between you and me there. I think your family is also my family.
Actually the hospitality you showed , charmed me. I thank you for helping me in visiting all
the places. I think it was impossible for me to visit the places without your help. I enjoyed
your company very much. I’m feel proud having such a friend like you.
I told much of your hospitality, your family and you to my mother. She is very much
curious to see you. If it is possible then come to Dhaka within a short time. I’m looking

cigarette smoke contains 15 billion particles of substances which are very dangerous for health.
Smoking causes cancer,heart attack and other fatal diseases. Excessive smoking may lead a
person for premature death.
I would suggest you to give up smoking just now. Firm determination of mind will help you in
this respect. Never indulge in such dangerous habit again.

some differences between your school and ours. Now I am going to tell you.
Your school is located in the rural area. But ours one is in the capital city. Your school is tin-
shed where as our school is made of brick, which is a five –storied building. In your letter you
have written at you have 20 teachers but we have 43.In your school there is no library. But we a
big and rich library. Your school starts at 10 am whereas our school begins at 8 a.m. Besides, the
number of students in your school is 500 but our school has 1200 students. One thing surprised
me that in your school there is no electricity. But we cannot even spend an hour without
electricity. Actually there is much difference between your school and ours one.
No more today. If possible , once come to Dhaka and meet us. My respects to your father and
mother.
Write me about your village. I shall be happy if you do it.

Your ever

My dear Nusrat
At first take my compliments and love. I think you are well with the grace the almighty. A am
also well. So, far as I know you are not so good in English, which is the international language. I
am going to advise how you can improve your skill. English is used and understood in almost all
over the countries. If you wish to have higher education in any subject you must know English.
So try hard to improve your English.
By listening, speaking and reading books you can improve your English. I advise you to read
English newspaper and listen to English news bulletin regularly. Read English story books and
novels. Keep a notebook and write down every new word you come across. Then write down its
meaning consulting dictionary. And finally try to speak English as much as you can. If you
follow these instructions you will surely improve.
Yours truly,
Sumya Rahman

Suppose you won a quiz and the prize was a half an hours’ free ride by wide-bodied passenger
plane. Now write a letter to your friend describing the experience of the flight.

You will be glad to know that I had won a quiz and you will be surprised to know that the prize
of it was a half an hours free ride either by a wide bodied passenger plane or a helicopter, it
would be a personal travel and I would miss many things of traveling by air. But if I travel by the
wide-bodied passenger plane I would be able to enjoy more. It is faster than a helicopter. I would
be able to use the airport. I would have the experience of taking off and landing of the plane.
Certainly I would have the experience of service facilities of the passenger plane. So , I have
decided to fly the wide bodied passenger plane. I think you will agree with me. When the
journey started I felt a little bit nervous because of the turning of the plane. But gradually my all
fears were gone away. I was very much enjoying the flight. The roads and cities were looking
like snakes. I was very astonished to see the black clouds very much near to me. After half an
hour the journey ended. In my life it was my greatest experience. I will never forget it.
No more today. Take care.

My dear Nusrat
In your last letter you wanted to know about the use of Internet. Now I am going to tell you
about how to use the Internet. Follow he instruction and it will be easy for you.
By this time you must know how to use a computer. Using the Internet takes nothing more than
the ability to use a computer. For using Internet you have to use the particular software.
If you click on the icon of browsing software such as the Microsoft Explorer or Netscape
Navigator, you will automatically get logged on the Internet. You will find a space for writing
the address of the web page you want to see. If you write the address, you will get to see that
page. For finding a particular page you can take the help of search engine through which you can
search for information on web pages. Yahoo and MSN and Google are the such engines. I
believe, if you follow the instructions, you will surely be able use the Internet with ease.
Now I am sure you will be able to look for your desired information on the Internet. Let me
know about your progress.

Write a letter to your friend about the importance of communicative English

Sumya Rahman

Dhaka cantt.Dhaka-1206

My dear Nusrat
Your letter of the 5th instant in to hand. In your letter you wrote about communicative English.
In the letter you have asked me to write about the advantages of it. Now I am writing about it.
Communicative English in a newly introduced English learning method through which one can
communicate with other easily. Actually it is the purpose of any language. The method has some
advantages. In the communicative method at dents understanding power can be tasted more then
the previous method. When a student fails to understand seen or unseen comprehension, he will
be unable to answer the question that follow. A student has to fill in the gaps of cloze test from
his understanding taking word from his vocabulary. In the previous course we got the letters and
applications by heart. But in communicative English their situations are not common. While
writing we have to add something. It increases our creative power. It encourages us to write free
hand. In true sense it is the ultimate goal of any language learning. So the importance of
communicative English can never be denied.
No more today. Meet when our meeting will be held again . With best regards to your parents
and love to you and all . hoping to have a few lines from you in reply.
Yours ever

My dear Nusrat
I have reached home safely. Now I’m at home but think I left my soul in Magura. I really cannot
forget affectionate love that your parents and elder sister showed to me. I’m highly pleased at the
entertainment that Sahrin Apu did. It was beyond my expectations. I’ve never seen like a family
like yours. All the members of your family treated me as Ma moni. I found no difference
between you and me there. I think your family is also my family. Actually the hospitality you
showed , charmed me. I thank you for helping me in visiting all the places. I think it was
impossible for me to visit the places without your help. I enjoyed your company very much. I’m
feel proud having such a friend like you.
I told much of your hospitality, your family and you to my mother. She is very much curious to
see you. If it is possible then come to Dhaka within a short time. I’m looking forward to you.
No more today.

Write a letter to your friend describing your experience of visiting a science fair.

29 April 2017
Tongi, Gazipur.
Dear Mitu,
I hope you are well. I am also well. I received your letter yesterday. In your letter you wanted to
know about my recent visit to science fair. Now I am going to tell you about my recent visit to
science fair.

Last Friday I went to visit a science fair in our school premises and learnt many things. Some
reputed schools took part in this fair. They displayed some hand made models of ships, motors,
radios, television, trains and computers. The fair lasted only for two days. Local people visited
the fair and praised young scientists for their uncommon performances. I was charmed with what
I saw in the fair. I enjoyed the fair most .
No more today. With best wishes and love.

Personal letter to your father asking permission for an education tour

29 April 2017
Tongi, Gazipur.

My dear Father,

I received your kind letter the other day. My monthly tests are just over and we are closing for
autumn break next week. I wish very much to be with you all during the holidays but our school
has arranged an educational tour to some of the historical places of Rajasthan and I do not want
to miss the opportunity.

The duration of the tour is ten days. The school has agreed to meet fifty percent of the expenses
and 25 percent will be paid by the State Government. We shall have to pay the balance which
roughly comes to TK 1000/- per head.

Two senior teachers are also accompanying the party. They will explain to us whatever we see
and, therefore, the tour is expected to be of great educational value. I shall, therefore, request you
to allow me to join the trip. Please intimate your acceptance by return of mail. Please rest assured
I shall take the earliest opportunity to visit you all.

With regards to you and dear mother,

Your loving son


Habibur Rahman
