1. Covid-19 Paragraph
Covid-19 is a deadly virus and the entire world is facing its dominance. It has reached more than
200 countries around the world. It all began in December 2019, more specifically 31st of the month.
China was the first country to experiencing this new disease. A case of 27 people was reported by
China’s disease control center on December 31 st. All of these 27 people had the same respiratory
problems. It has also said in the report that these people had a connection with seafood which was
bought from the market of Hunan. Researchers had found a match of this unknown disease’s genetic
sequence in the database. It was in the family of coronavirus. Later, it was named Covid-19. This
name stands for coronavirus disease 2019. After that, Covid-19 became a global health crisis. On
11 March 2019 WHO (world health organization) had declared the outbreak of Covid-19 as a
pandemic. Further research has shown that it can cause disease in animals like mammals and birds.
This virus can spread through droplets of a sneeze or exhales from an infected person. Symptoms
for this disease are cough, fever, headaches, loss of smell, and loss of test. WHO gave some rules
and regulations for protecting people from viral infection. Wearing face masks, washing hands
frequently, and social distancing are these protocols. In the earlier phase lockdown was given by
the government of the countries around the world. Several institutes and companies around the
globe worked hard for vaccines. But finally, vaccines are available.
2. Dengue Fever
Dengue Fever is a viral disease which is caused by the Dengue Fever virus and it is transmitted
through mosquito bites. Mainly, Aedes mosquitoes are responsible for the transmission of this virus
which can easily spread from people to mosquitos and from mosquitos to people. Once a person is
affected by this virus, uninfected mosquitos can be infected while feeding on the blood of an infected
person. After that, the mosquitos will transmit this virus to a different person and they will also get
infected by the virus. After getting infected by the virus, it takes some time to show the symptoms.
These symptoms can take 4-12 days to appear. In the meanwhile, the infected person will have high
fever along with some other symptoms. These symptoms include severe headache, pain behind the
eyes, Nausea, Vomiting, Muscle and joint pains, rash, etc. Once someone is infected by the Dengue
virus and starts to show symptoms of Dengue Fever, immediate actions should be taken otherwise
it can cause severe fever which is known as severe Dengue Fever and it can even cause death. To
prevent being infected by the Dengue Fever virus, we all should take precautions beforehand. First
of all, our environment should be kept clean so that it doesn’t become the habitat of mosquitos.
Aedes mosquitos generally reproduce in clean water so we have to be careful about water storage
places. In order to eradicate the reproduction of Aedes mosquitos, there should be no such place
containing clean water for more than three days. Other than that, a regular street cleaning including
removing the discarded water-bearing container and cleaning drainage on is very significant. City
Corporation should play a vital role in cleaning the city areas to keep its inhabitants safe from the
infection of the Dengue virus. If someone gets infected by the Dengue Fever virus, they should
immediately consult with the doctor and take proper treatment otherwise it can cause death. It is
also good practice to use mosquito net all the time to prevent the Dengue Fever virus. As Dengue
Fever can be a severe problem especially in this season, the government should take necessary
steps beforehand to fight Dengue Fever infection from spreading. Otherwise, the death toll can rise
high which will be troublesome for our country. With proper steps, we can save people from being
infected by Dengue Fever and decrease the death rate. It should never be taken lightly.

affected by diseases. Now The Government of Bangladesh (GOB) is working closely with IOM and
other agencies to establish a new 2,000-acre site. Site planners and engineers are working on
access roads and layout of this large site to allow the provision of services. Until then, services and
assistance are still required in Rohingya’s villages throughout Cox’s Bazar.

7. My Favorite Teacher/The teacher you like most
A teacher is an asset to a country. I have come across many teachers in my student life. Of them
all, Mr. Alan is my favorite teacher. He is a teacher of English. He is a BA in English and trained in
English teaching. He is a man of letters with profound knowledge in The English language. His
teaching style is very much attractive and effective. When he takes his class, all the students listen
to him with great attention. He makes us share our views and feelings with him. He makes our
lessons interesting to us. He maintains an amiable relation with all his students. Besides, he is a
man of principle with a good character. His knowledge of English language and literature is very
good. His pronunciation is perfect, accurate and very clear. I feel fortunate to be his student so do
feel other students. He looks upon us as his own sons. He takes keen interest in solving our school
and personal problems. He is very sincere, punctual and honest. He is a skilled teacher and is in
dedicated teaching. He loves and guides us like his sons. He always encourages us to learn new
things. He is no doubt, an ideal teacher. Because of all his extraordinary qualities, he is my favorite
teacher.
8. Water Pollution
Water is a very important element of human environment. It is an essential element of nature
because it saves all kinds of lives on earth. Clean water is healthful but polluted water is very harmful.
Nowadays, water pollution is one of the serious problems that humanity face. Water pollution refers
to the contamination of water by filth, waste or other substance. It can be polluted in many ways.
Water is polluted by using chemical fertilizer and various insecticides in the land when they washed
away by rain or flood. Mills and factories throw their waste products into rivers and canals and thus
pollute water. Again motor launches, steamers polluted water by throwing oil, food waste and human
waste. Another aspect is, polluting the underground water by arsenic. By drinking this polluted water,
we often get sick and many even die. So, we must prevent water pollution at any cost. Water can
be purified by boiling it and using purifying tablets. All concerned must be conscious to keep water
free from pollution. Government should take comprehensive programme to check water pollution.
Above all, for a healthier and happier life, massive awareness must be created against water
pollution.
9. A Rainy Day
A rainy day is a day when it rains continuously all day long during the rainy season. It is called a
pouring day. The sky is overcast with thick of black clouds and the sun remains hidden behind them.
The weather is foul. The sun is not seen. Sometimes, gusty wind blows with rain. Rivers, canals and
tanks swell up. Roads and paths get muddy and slippery. Water stands here and there. Normal life
is disrupted due to heavy rain. One does not generally come out without compulsion. The common
people cannot attend their respective places in time. If anybody wants to go outside, he has to take
an umbrella with him. The poor and the day laborers do not like a rainy day. They cannot go out to
earn their living. Their suffering knows no bounds. They go on starving. A rainy day is most
welcomed to the students, as they have no classes in the school. A rainy day brings joyous mood
to the young boys of the same age and they are seen to bathe in rainwater with merriment. People
pass the day in listening to music, watching TV, reading novels. Those who have imaginary bent of
mind enjoy the beauty of nature being drenched in rains. The cloudy sky lets loose their emotions.
A rainy day has good effect on the soil. It helps plants to grow, flowers to bloom and nature looks
fresh and beautiful. However, a rainy day is not pleasant to all.
10. Our School
The name of my school is XYZ high school. It is at Fakir Bazar in XYZ district. A rich man named
Mr. Majiruddin Ahmed founded the school in 1941. The school is at a suitable place. Our school has

language through internet. One can use the vast resource of knowledge through internet sitting in
a room . it is internet that makes the world a global village . for having all these internet services ,
a computer is a must. computer has become a part and parcel of our daily life. The modern world
cannot go a single second without computer. Therefore , I think that it is important to achieve
knowledge on computer and internet along with studying the textbooks.
14. A Railway Station
A railway station plays an important role in the system of train communication of a country. It is a
place where trains stop to take in and t o d r op down passengers and goods. If it is a big station, it
remains busy almost all the time of the day and night. Every station has one or more platforms for
the passengers in order to facilitate them to get into or to get down from the train. In every station
there is at least a building that usually made of red bricks which is called station house. The building
has several rooms which are used as a booking office, ticket counters, and waiting rooms for
passengers. Besides, there are rooms for stationmaster rooms for officer on duty and so on. The
stationmaster is all in all in a station. He is assisted by number of other staffs, railway police and
guards. The passengers willing to travel by train collect their tickets from the ticket counter. The
ticket counter generally opens half an hour before the arrival of the train. When a train arrives the
whole station area turns into a noisy place. Some passengers hurry to get down from the train, at
the same time passengers waiting for the trains want to get into it. As a result, a collision of two
groups of passengers often takes place. In this time coolies are also found busy carrying luggage’s
of the passengers. As soon as the train leaves, the station sinks into silence and turns into a deserted
place.
15. My Native Village
The definition of Native means, a person born in a specified place or associated with a place by
birth. I have a native village. The name of my village is XYZ. It is a large and famous village. It is
about two miles long and one mile wide. It is in the district of XYZ . It is the biggest village of our

The natural beauty of the village is very attractive. The climate of the village is good for health. My
village is an ideal village. I love my village. I am proud of it.
16. My favourite TV programme
Now a day, television has become a part and parcel of our modern life. So watching TV is a common
pastime for all classes of people. Television telecasts numerous programmes everyday in its various
channels. These programmes give us not only pleasant but also give a chance to know about the
whole world. Therefore, like other person I also love watching TV. My favourite TV programme is
“Krishi Dibanishi”. A leading TV channel called ‘Channel i ’ telecast this programme. It is a well-
known documentary programme which presented by an intellectual Bangladeshi journalist and
media personality named ‘Sheikkh Siraj’. He always tries to upload all the updates news and views
of our agriculture from Tecnaf to Tetulia. He not only tells us about the easy method of agriculture
but also informs about all the government facilities which help a farmer to grow more crops in his
fields by the use modern technology. Sometimes he tries to arrange some funny game and sports
in order to inspire our farmers and joy to the spectators. Not only that, he often introduces us with
the foreign agriculture and their life style which teaches us to compare with them. By the by, our
country is an agricultural country and our economy is totally depends on agriculture. So this
programme has become a popular TV programme with a short time in our country.

17. My Daily Life or Daily Activities of Student
To make the best use of time everybody should have a daily routine of work. A daily routine of work
helps a man to do everything in time. For a Student It is all the more necessary. I am a student. I
have a routine of my daily work. I strictly follow it. My day’s work usually begins early in the morning.
Rising from bed I generally brush my teeth, wash my hands, face and feet. Then I go for a walk in
the open air. At six I back home and 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. In between 10 to 11 a.m. I
take my bath and have my meal. Then I go to school and stay there up to 4.30 p.m. I always sit in
the first bench and listen to what my teachers say. When the school is over I come back home
straight. Then I take some refreshment and go to the field to play with my friends. Just before sunset
I come back home. Thereafter, I go to my reading room and study there till 10 p.m. At 10 p.m., I
generally take my supper. Then I go to bed. On holidays, I spend my time visiting different interesting
places with my friends. This is in short all about my daily life/activities.
18. Duties to Parents
Obedience to parents is a divine virtue. Penn said, ‘next to God, thy parents.’ Thus our parents are
be-all and end-all of our life. Our parents are the source of our life on earth. They have brought up
us with great care and affection from our infancy. They are our best guides, friends, and well-
wishers. They are next to god to us. Obedience to parents is a religious duty. Allah says, “Be grateful
to me and your parents.” Islam says, ‘To please parents is to please god and to displease them is
to displease him.’ Islam further says, “heaven lies at the feet of mother”. Hinduism says, “Mother is
superior to heaven.” Moses taught his people, “Honor thy father and thy mother so that your days
might be long.” Great men assert, “If there is anything heavier than the sky is a father.” All the great
men of the world were obedient to their parents. Hazrat Abdul Quader (R.A), Hazrat Baizit Bostami
(R.H), George Washington, Napoleon, Sir Syed Ahmed, A.K Fazlul Haq, Pandit Iswar Chandra were
all the most obedient sons of their parents. We all know that Hazrat Baizid Bostami kept standing
beside the bed of his ailing mother all the night with a glass full of water in his hand lest his calling
might disturb his mother’s sleep. Again, we know that Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jilani was so devoted to
his mother that he did not hesitate to speak the truth to the robbers about his having 40 Mohars in
his pocket sewed by his mother. He did it so to carry out his mother’s order, ‘my dear son, never tell
a lie.’ Besides, we hear Napoleon Bonaparte utter about the mother’s, ‘give me a good mother and
I will give you a good nation.’ Alexander, the great, says, ‘only one drop of my mother’s tears can
instantly efface my order containing even one hundred verses.’ When a boy, George Washington
was about he came to bid farewell to his mother, he saw tears in her eyes. He then turned around
and said to his servant, ‘fetch my box back, I shall not go away to break my mother’s heart.’ Such
examples of devotedness to mothers can be multiplied. The contribution of our parents to our life is
beyond description. Our existence on earth would be impossible without their loving care and
affection. We have a lot of duties towards our parents. Our first and foremost duty is towards good
and our second duty is towards parents. Ruskin says, “Man has three duties to perform: duty towards
God, duty towards parents and duty towards mankind.” We have to carry out whatever they order
us to do and avoid whatever they forbid us to do. We should mind that our parents are heavenly
blessings to us on earth. Our holy Qur’an says, “Be mindful to your parents. Please them and carry
out their orders. Do not show any annoyance at them when they are old. Always pray to God for
their good and peace.” This is why we should be grateful to them and treat them most kindly and
lovingly. Let me recall Alexander’s great saying, “One drop of my mother’s tears might obliterate my
orders of hundred lines.” We should all pray to god for their betterment both in this world and in the
world hereafter. Obedience is said to be the first law of heaven. Obedience to parents is a great
boon blessing. Disobedient children can never be happy. It brings utter grief and ruin for them.
Obedience to parents is a sacred duty for us. We should, therefore love and honor our parents with
all the regard and warmth of our heart.
19. Birds in Bangladesh
Bangladesh is a land of beauty. Birds have added to its beauty more. We sleep at night and rise
early in the morning hearing the sweet song of different birds.
There are different types of birds in our country. They are different in colour, size, and habit. Some
birds are small in size and some are big. Some birds live in woods and live in human habitation. On
Page | 8
their habit and activities they are also classified as testing birds, tailor birds, singing birds, birds of
prey, talking birds, domestic birds, migratory birds, nocturnal birds etc.
The crow is a teasing bird. It is a very common bird in our country. It looks ugly. It lives on dirty
things. They like dirty and rotten things to eat. The harsh voice of it is very teasing. If the crow gets
any opportunity it steals away foods and other things from our kitchen. These are hated by all. The
kite is also the same nature.
The Swallow, the babui and the tuntuni are the tailor birds. They are called so because they build
their nests with great skill like an experienced tailor.
The cuckoo, the shyama, the doel, the koel, the nightangle, the papiya etc. are known as singing
birds. All of them are beautiful to look at. They are popular. The cuckoo is the most popular among
them. It is called the harbinger of spring. The doel is our national bird. It is found here and there.
The chandana, the bau-kotha-kou are loved by all. The vulture, the hawk, the kite etc. are birds of
prey. They have keen eyes and sharp nails. They live on fish and flesh. The parrot, the maina, and
the shalik, are the talking birds. These kinds of birds can copy the human voice and speak like man.
If they are trained, the can talk like a man. Many people tame them. The hen, the duck, the cock,
the pigeon, etc are very common domestic animals in our country. They are very useful to us. We
get egg and flesh from them. Besides our native birds many birds come to our land during autumn
and winter from other countries. They flock in lakes and beels and go back after winter. The owl and
the bat are nocturnal birds. They only come out at night. So people can hardly see them. They
mainly live on ripe fruits.
20. The Homemaker
People who take care of households for themselves and for the other people and by doing the work
they lead their livelihood are called homemakers. Generally, they may perform general
housekeeping chores and personal services, or they may assign them to other members of the
household. Sometimes they employ people outside the household to do these tasks. Every
household is unique, and the duties of each homemaker vary according to the ages, habits, needs,
and incomes of the people in the household. At the same rate they are responsible for keeping
homes clean and running smoothly. They decide what cleaning jobs need to be done, and they
arrange to have them completed. Cleaning tasks may include dusting, sweeping, making beds,
washing and waxing floors, vacuuming, and a wide variety of other chores. Many homemakers also
make sure that clothing and household items are laundered, dry-cleaned, or mended when needed.
In many cases, they shop for food, clothing, and other household needs. Homemakers often plan,
cook, and serve many of the meals for their households. Sometimes they make arrangements to
have others cook meals in the home or to buy meals from outside sources. Maintaining the
household budget may be another responsibility of homemakers. They may take care of bills,
banking, tax filing, and other financial matters. They often are responsible for day-to-day expenses,
and they sometimes do long-range financial planning for their households. With other household
members they make decisions about buying insurance, taking vacations, getting loans, and other
important matters. In fact, they play an important role to make the family happy.
21. My Friend /best friend.

student. She is in class 5. Her father is a teacher and her mother is a housewife. She has one

comforts me in my sorrows. She looks beautiful. She is my best friend. I feel proud of myself for
having such a wonderful friend. I love her very much.
22. Your First Day at School
My first day at school is. one of the most memorable events in my life, It was Thursday 5 January
2006. With many unknown fears, I accompanied my mother to school. As she left me, I realized
that I was in an unfamiliar world. Then one senior student guided me to my classroom. But my
heart sank I noticed tears trickling down the cheeks of most of the girls. However, our class
teacher’s kind and friendly words comforted us. Soon I joined the assembly. The principal
Page | 9
delivered a short speech welcoming us. Then we were back in the classroom. Then our class
teacher told us about various things. After some time the first bell went. Then new teachers came
in each of the following periods. They were very friendly too. After the Tiffin period, we received
our English teacher. She told us a number of stories. To me, her class was the most entertaining.
At last the final bell went. Then I accompanied my mother back home. The sweet memories of the
day will remain alive in my heart until the last day of my life.

names not born to die. Her spirit will endure as long as man can read and stories can be told of the
woman who showed the world there are no boundaries to courage and faith.”
25. Leisure
Leisure is the time when a man is free from routine work and can do whatever he like best. In a
word, it is a temporary relief from the monotonous routine task of our daily life. Village people spend
their leisure by flying kites, fishing, playing swimming and gardening. City people spend their leisure
by shopping, reading books, watching television, using computer, going park and zoo. The common
sports are football, cricket, ha du du, chess etc. and the common pastimes are gossiping listening
radio, watching television, reading books and newspapers etc. In late winter, the nature looks very
beautiful and the sky remains very clear. Different kinds of flowers are bloomed everywhere. People
enjoy it very much. In the late winter, many people travel from one place to another and enjoy the
natural beauty. Besides, people enjoy then various kinds of games like badminton, volleyball,
dariabandha and ha-du-du etc. Travelling is a good leisure. It refreshes our mind and broadens our
outlook. Nevertheless, it is true that travelling is an expensive pastime. As I am a student, I do not
get much time for leisure. I spend my leisure by playing cricket and reading novels on holiday,
watching television and visiting many nice places. However, leisure should be significant for
everyone.
26. The Selfish Giant
Once there was a selfish giant. He had a very beautiful garden in front of his place where he lived.
He went to his relative’s house and stayed there for some days. In the meantime children played
in the garden. One day when the giant came back, he saw the children playing freely in his
garden. This made him seriously angry and he drove them away. He built a huge wall round the
garden to stop entrance into it. So the children could not play. Then the garden become lifeless
without any flower or bird. Though it was the season of spring, winter prevailed in the garden. The
giant found no trace of spring in his garden. Then one day he could hear the chirping of birds and
looked out of the window. He saw that children were playing in the garden. It was full of flowers
and birds. He come out of his castle into the garden and seeing him coming, the children ran
away. At once the garden became lifeless again with cold. He could realize the matter and felt
sad. Then he allowed them to enter into it and play freely. The garden immediately regained its life
with flowers leave. From that time the giant and the children become close friends.
27. A Train Journey you have Enjoyed
A journey is pleasant to all. A journey by train is especially very pleasant and enjoyable to me. A
few days ago I made a journey by train from Dhaka to Chittagong. During the last vacation one of
my friends requested me to attend his sister’s marriage ceremony at Chittagong. So I got a chance
to make a journey by train. I accepted this invitation gladly. Two other friends joined with me. On
the fixed day we reached Kamalapur Railway Station at 07:00 A.M. The station was very crowded.
Somehow we managed to buy our tickets. With great difficulty we got into the train. Fortunately I
got my seat beside the window. After a few minutes the guard blew the whistle and the train began
to move on. At first the train moved on slowly. There it began to run in full speed. I kept looking
outside through the window. The train was passing through the green fields. Dew drops on green
grasses were glittering like pearls. Trees and houses seemed to run behind. We saw the farmers
working in the field. Cattle were grazing here and there. I enjoyed the scenes with cheerful mind.
All these pleased me very much. It was the most pleasant journey in my life.
28. Green House Effect
A greenhouse is a house made of glass. It has glass walls and a glass roof. People grow
vegetables and flowers and other plants in them. A greenhouse stays warm inside, even during
winter. During the daylight hours, a greenhouse gets warmer and warmer and stays pretty warm at
night too. This is because the heat received from the sun is trapped inside the greenhouse by the
glass. The Earth is also like a greenhouse. During the day Earth’s surface warms up in the
sunlight. At night, the surface cools, releasing the heat back into the air. But some of the heat is
trapped by gases like carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. These gases, called greenhouse gases,
work like the glass walls and the roof and keep the Earth warm. This is global warming and it is
making the Earth a dangerous planet. Unfortunately, we are making the earth too hot. We are
using oil, gas and coal for running cars, buses, trains, planes, power stations and so on. These
fuels have carbon in them. This carbon and other gases trap the heat in the atmosphere and do
Page | 11
not allow the earth to cool down. As a result, the Earth gets hotter. As a result of global warming,
the ice on the Earth’s surface is melting fast due to extreme heat. Oceans and seas are warming
too. All the ice that melts will fill up the oceans and seas and they will overflow on land. Thus a
huge area of land will go under water. Some of the best land for growing food is also the most low-
lying. That means it will be flooded first. Even some big cities like London, Kolkata and Bangkok
will get flooded. That means thousands of people will lose their houses and land and they will go
hungry. Moreover, as the earth’s climate warms up, the weather gets more violent. Storms and
cyclones will become more powerful. More areas will get drier and turn into deserts. There will be
heavier rains too. So there will be more floods and river erosion.
29. Climate Change
Climate change is now the most unpredictable threat to our planet. The climate of the earth has
changed over the last century. There is stronger evidence that most of the warming observed the
last 50 years is due to human activities. Because of gas emissions, temperatures should continue
to rise over the 21st century. Its impact will be severely negative on both mankind and nature.
Human activities that contribute to climate change include in particular the burning of fossil fuels,
agriculture and land-use changes like deforestation. These cause emissions of carbon dioxide
[co2] , the main gas responsible for climate change . And for this possibly many catastrophic
changes will be inevitable. The more the greenhouse gases are emitted, the higher the tendency
will be for the earth to warm. It will widespread the melting of snow and ice. Serious consequences
will be a rise in sea levels, which will endanger coastal areas and small islands. Therefore, only
reducing emissions of greenhouse gases should reduce the risk of the adverse effects. So, the
whole world needs to be concerned to remove this fatal threat.
30. A Book Fair
A book fair is the exhibition of different types of educational items for the consumers and buyers. It
is held to make the products widely popular and it is usually arranged on the important days of a
year. It is very much popular with the readers, men of letters and the authors. People from different
sections mainly literate people take interest in a book fair. Young boys and girls gather here to find
out their favorite books. The largest book fair in our country is held in February in
the Bangla Academy premises. It increases the reader’s interest on reading books and widens the
sphere of our knowledge. Bangla Academy arranges the fair and different publications make stalls
to advertise their perspective books. Different types of books like story books, novels, books on
various dramas, books on poems, autobiographical books, books on science and technology, books
on raising social awareness, etc. are usually available in a book fair. Many publishers, poets, and
writers visit here and their fans gather there for getting autographs. Besides selling and buying
books, different cultural functions are also held in a book fair. Even some stalls are found to sell
snacks, cigarettes and trifling items of daily necessities. Indeed, a book fair reminds us the books
are our best friends and companions.
31. My Favorite Hobby
Hobby is the favorite pastime of a person in his leisure time. It is not his regular business, such as
stamp collecting, growing flowers or vegetables, reading books, or any other similar things. My
favorite hobby is reading books. I read all kinds of good books, magazines, newspapers etc. I am
to read some books for my examination. I read them with much attention. But when I get leisure or
spare time I start reading other books that I like. I feel happy if I get a new book every day. I read
novels, fairy tales, adventure stories, detective novels, poems, essays etc. I do not like to waste
time in idle gossiping. I treat the books as my friends as they delight me even at the time of my
danger and loneliness. I spend about an hour every day on reading. I enjoy very much reading any
kind of good books. I also acquire knowledge from my reading. It helps me broaden my outlook.
So a man must have a hobby that gives pleasure, knowledge and removes the pangs of
loneliness.
32. A School Magazine
A school magazine is an annual publication of a school. It contains the literary writings of the
students and the teachers. It is a forum through which our young learners can get the opportunity
to express the green ideas of their minds. It is published every year with an interesting and
significant title almost all aspects of the school are reflected in it. It is an in important milestone of
the progress and prospect of a school. A school magazine generally contains poems, Short
Page | 12
stories, essays, one-act plays, jokes, and reports of cultural activities of the school. Usually, there
is magazine commerce in a school for publishing a magazine. A teacher is usually given the
charge of guiding the work of publication. A group of students works together with much
encouragement. The headmaster is the chief patron of the magazine. The magazine editor at first
invites writings on different subject forms the student. After proper scrutiny of the collected writings
for the magazine, the editor selects good ones and sends them to press for printing.the school
authority bears the total expenditure of publication. The school magazine can help the students to
develop their latent faculties as well as their power of thinking and writing. Infect, the school
magazine is the first stepping stone for future writers. A young learner really feels proud and
happy when he finds his writing in the magazine.
33. A school library
A school library is a collection of books which are used by the students. It is a store house of
knowledge. There are usually text books, reference books, story books, books of drama, novel, daily
newspaper etc. Our school has also a library. The library is of an idle standard. There are nearly two
thousand books on different subjects. There are biographies, novels, books on travels, science and
religious books. It also contains some rare books on history and culture. The books are arranged on
shelves subject wise. So we face no problem while finding out books. There are a librarian and an
assistant. The librarian and his assistants are well-read persons. They are qualified enough to guide
the students in matters of choice of books. The library room is well lighted and spacious. There are
two reading rooms attached to it. One is for the boys and the other is for the girls. There are also
sitting arrangement for the students to study and take down notes. The students of our school spend
their busiest hours in the library. The very atmosphere of our library is inspiring. The library
administration is so planned as to attract the bright and the weaker students to the library. In fact,
our school library may best be regarded as the centre of our academic life in the school. It is an ideal
place for study.
34. Our School Library

is strictly maintained . There is an environment of quietness in the library. Our school library is very
helpful to increase our knowledge. It also provide us with daily newspaper. we are really proud of
our library. Every school should have a school library.
35. The Importance of Dictionary he Importance of Using Dictionary
A dictionary is a compilation of words ranging from letters A-Z. When reading or writing an article,
deciphering profound words, phrases or sentences, using a dictionary could be great help. Primarily,
its purpose is to give meanings to words. There are many advantages of using a dictionary. So,
using a dictionary is important for students. The first advantage of using a dictionary is
pronunciation. Furthermore, we can also listen to the pronunciation of the words. Through the aid
of a dictionary, you can check out a word’s right utterance. For that, it will help you get the right
pronunciation of words. For example, the pronunciation of the word “cat” is /kæt/. The second
advantage of using a dictionary is part of speech. It could inform you which part of speech does a
certain word belong. Should “cat” be a verb, a noun, an adjective or a combination of these three?
One more thing, it could also be a guide to choose a particular word use, for example, part of speech
of the word “cat” in the sentence “I love cats.” is noun. The third advantage of using a dictionary is
spelling. Linguistically speaking, it is no doubt that a dictionary could help us know the proper
spelling of words. In this connection, it will guide us in writing words, phrases, sentences and
Page | 13
paragraphs. Lastly, examples sentences are also provided. When we want to use the word and do
not know where to put the word, we can look example sentences. For example, we should put the
word ‘cat’ after the adjective in ‘the black cat is cute.’ However, searching words by using a dictionary
takes a lot of time. Using a talking dictionary, words can be searched immediately. We can find
some words in a few minute. To sum up, a dictionary is great help for everyone, especially students
who are learning a language and who are interested in language learning. It is also helpful in
enriching our vocabulary. So, remember to bring a dictionary with us every time when we come to
class
36. The Prize Giving Day at Our School
A prize-giving day is an annual event in a school. It is a special day particularly for the students
who excel in academic, co-curricular and extracurricular activities. We had our prize-giving day on
5 December last year. The entire stage was colorfully decorated. Our headmistress and her
colleagues received the chief guest at the gate. Then he was guided to the auditorium. At 10:00
am the programme started with the recitation from the Holy Quran . The headmistress delivered
her welcome speech. Then the chief guest along with the headmistress took their positions on the
dais. One of our respected teachers called over the names of the recipients. They went up to the
chief guest one by one and took prizes. He congratulated them as he shook hands. After about an
hour, the ceremony was over. The chief guest thanked all and advised the students to devote
themselves to study and nation building works. The headmistress gave her concluding speech
thanking all. Finally, the day’s programme ended with a musical soiree. I personally enjoyed the
day, very much and still remember every bit of it.
37. A fixed price shop
A shop is very familiar palace to us. Generally it is available in the place where people live or use
to move around. There are many kind of shop around us. They have many names like grocery
shop, variety store, cosmetics shop etc. But they have two forms. One is fixed price shop and
another is variable pricing shop. The term, fixed price shop, is used to mean the price of a good or
a service is not subject to bargaining in the shop. The term commonly indicates that an external
agent, such as a merchant or the government, has set a price level, which may not be changed for
individual sales. In the case of governments, this may be due to price controls. On the other hand,
Variable pricing is a form of pricing of products or services as distinct from a fixed price. Traditional
examples include auctions, bargaining, discounts, price skimming, penetration pricing and ‘price
shading’ (where the seller may vary the price by a certain amount or percentage as required).
Stock markets and foreign exchange markets are based in variable pricing, with pricing models
generally becoming more sophisticated driven in part by reduced transaction costs using modern
information technology; notably examples include yield management and pricing. Finally it is clear
to us that the fixed price shop is good because all the buyers take a thing at the same price from
it.
38. Tree Plantation
Tree is one of the most important elements of our environment. It is impossible to think any
environment without tree. So tree plantation is a burning question in deed. We know that trees
supply us with oxygen and receive carbon dioxide. We cannot live without oxygen. The food what
we eat to live, the medicine what we take to cure diseases, the furniture what we use for comfort,
the dress what we wear to look us good, the cars and vehicles what we use to run our life smooth
tree is a must. That is why it is very essential for us to consider tree plantation. Actually planting
tree according to the need and necessity of the environment is called tree plantation. We know
that to keep balance of the environment 25% of a country should be wood area. But actually many
countries of the world do not have this quantity of wood area. In Bangladesh we have only 6%
forest area of total land. It is not at all desirable to us. So realizing the need and necessity we
should be aware of tree plantation. In the tree plantation week from July 1 to 7 we all should plant
at least one piece of tree. We can plant tree in the open space of our houses, fields and by the
side of the roads. In order to ensure a healthy environment we should stop deforestation and
provide tree plantation. If we can keep balance of the environment we will live better. So we all
should come forward to prevalent tree plantation.

39. A tea stall
A tea stall is a familiar sight in Bangladesh. It is a favorite haunt for all kinds of people. It is found
in towns as well as village markets and the different points of roads. In town it is usually situated
by the side of narrow streets on footpaths of roads. The appearance of the stall has something in
common. The shopkeeper sits at a table or on a chouki. Around him there are shelves in which
there are jars of biscuits, chanachur, buns, or other snacks. In front of the shop, bunches of
banana are kept hanging on pieces of strings. A 'boy' prepares tea on an oven which has either
coal or twigs as fuel. The kettle is always on the oven, and water boils in it. Cups are kept on a
table nearby, and a small pot of water for washing the cups and saucers. There are benches
inside the shop, and some benches are also outside it. Customers sit on the benches and order
tea, and sometimes some tea things like biscuits, chanachur, banana, and buns. Almost all kinds
of people are found at a tea stall. A tired rickshaw puller gets off his paddling seats, and has a
quick cup of tea. Even educated people or rich people who are in a hurry for some business, and
have no time to look for better place for tea are sometimes found in a tea stall. Sometimes gossip-
mongers haunt the place, engage themselves in gossips. The tea stall remains busy from early
morning till late night.
40. Earthquakes
We know what earthquakes are and how they are caused. More details after long research has
been found about the earthquakes. Somewhere under the earth’s crust a strata fractures and
crumbles down. As it breaks it strikes against the rocks around it and causes quakes to travel out
in all directions. The impact of the explosion radiates waves of shock in all directions. The shock
waves strike the earth’s crust and make the earth tremble or quake. The quake lasts only for a few
seconds. But within these fleeting moments terrible havoc is caused to life and property. The
quakes differ in intensity; mild shocks pass off lightly. Severe shocks cause great damage and
terrible suffering. In 1923, two Japanese cities, Tokyo and Yokohama were struck and about
250,000 people were killed and several crores of rupees worth of properties were destroyed. If the
shock is severe, great changes in the earth’s crust occur. The land on either side moves up or
slips down. Portions of sea floor rises up to form dry land-Sea beds rise up making the sea
shallow. Tracts of land become suddenly elevated or depressed or even submerged. Rocks and
boulders on mountain sides are loosened setting up a land slide. If the quake occurs in the mid
sea, great waves are set up. The waves spread destruction along the neighbouring shores. The
spot where the quake occurs and from where shock waves radiate is known as the Epicenter. The
shock waves are transmitted over thousands of kilometres all around. Now it is possible to get
warnings of an impending shock even some days in advance through, instruments called the
Seismograph and seisnnoscope. The Japanese who often suffer from earthquakes build their
houses with light materials like bamboo. They have now evolved shock proof houses also. The
earthquake belt run around the earth along the Pacific Ocean, the Himalayas and its branches,
Quetta, Baluchistan, Cutch, Bihar, Assam, Peru, Burma, the East Indies, Japan, New Zealand,
Peru and Chile.
41. Pahela Baishakh-The First Day of Bangla New Year
The first day of Bangla new year is the most colorful day for all Bangladeshi people. "Pahela
Baishakh" is being celebrated by All Bangladeshi people every year in 14th April. The celebration
starts when the sun rises. From the ancient age, people of this region are attached to agriculture.
Emperor Akbar reformed a calendar in order to fix a date to collect tax from his people. So it is
believed that Pahela Baishakh is celebrated during the reign of Mughal Emperor Akbar. On this day
farmers pay their tax. The shopkeepers star new account which is also known as 'halkhata utsab".
They invite their customers and entertain them with sweet. Both the rural and urban people celebrate
Pahela Baishkah in their own way. People keep their houses neat and clean, wear new traditional
dresses and celebrate the day with their loved ones. fairs or Baisakhi Mela are held in different
places. People go to these fairs with little children and purchase different handicrafts, toys,
agricultural products, bangles, and sweet dishes. Different festive like jari gan, pala, gan, Gambhira,
puppet show also takes place in different ways. Young women wear white saree with a red border.
The most colorful festival of Pahela Baishakh is the "Mangal Shovajatra" the biggest and the colorful
rally which is organized by Charukala-Fine Art Institute of Dhaka University. Different cultural
organizations also organize different program to make this day more colorful Chayanat, a cultural
Page | 15
organization starts their program on early morning with the renowned song of Tagore "Eso he
Baishakh." Newspapers also publish special feature and Television and radio Channels broadcast
special programs. All people welcome the new year and celebrate the day with the hope that the
new year will bring peace and happiness to their life.
42. Food Adulteration
Food is one of the basic needs of human life. It helps human beings to grow up and ensures to
survive on earth. It is called human fuel. Unfortunately, these life leading foods are being adulterated
indiscriminately. Vegetables, fruits, fishes, oil, milk, milk products, baby foods are mainly being
adulterated daily. There are many reasons for food adulteration. The prime cause of food
adulteration is the endless greed of the immoral and dishonest businessmen. Human life is less
valued to their profit. Many food and beverage industries use poisonous chemicals to keep food
fresh look, longer lasting and high profit. Through many types of research and surveys, it is found
that most of the foods are being adulterated randomly which contain harmful substances like DDT,
Aldrin, formalin, Chlordane, etc. All adulterated foods are very detrimental to our health and life. It
leads to death. Taking adulterated foods people have to be the victim to many serious diseases like
cancer, kidney failure, liver damage, heart diseases, headache, high blood pressures, etc. So, it is
imperative to stop food adulteration at any cost. In spite of taking some positive measures by our
govt. law enforcement agencies have to be more active. Greedy businessmen have to be identified
and punished. Mass media and common people can play an effective role to remove the problem.
43. Global Warming
Global warming, the rising temperature around the world, has some causes and effects. The main
reason for this global warming is the huge amount of carbon resulting from environmental
pollution. Again the destruction of forests adds to this problem. The growth of industries,
increasing number of vehicles and the use of CFCs in manufacturing and packaging industries are
also the causes of the rice temperature in the atmosphere. This increase in the world’s
temperature has some fatal consequences on humans, animals, and plants. The increased
amount of heat will melt the huge ice of the polar ice-caps and thereby, the sea level will rise.
Then the salty water of the sea will mix with the river water and will come into the farmlands. Then
the fertility of the lands will be lost and man’s ability to grow crops will be reduced. Furthermore,
the lower regions of the world including the coastal areas of Bangladesh will go under water.
Again, if the temperature rise continues, many of the species of animals will become extinct
forever, So, effective measures must be taken to prevent global warming. Planting more trees and
expansion of forestation programmers can go a long way to tackle the situation. Using
environment-friendly machines and avoiding the use of CFCs can also reduce the amount of
carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Taking all these steps, we could prevent global warming so that
we can make our life danger-free.
44. Early Rising
Early rising is the habit of getting up from bed in the early morning. It is a very good habit. It is
essential and good for health. This habit is of special use to a man in various ways. The man who
rises early in the morning can take some exercises or a walk in the morning fresh air by the river
side or in the open field. The morning air refreshes both body and mind. Then the air is full of oxygen.
There is a calm and serene atmosphere everywhere. One can enjoy the beauty of nature in the
early morning. Nature smiles in the morning with colourful flowers and green leaves and the chirping
of birds is also heard in the morning. All these make them cheerful and healthy. The beautiful gifts
and colourful nature in the morning remind everybody of the Creator. One feels like to pray to God.
An early riser has many advantages. He can start his daily work earlier. He has nothing to worry.
He is never in haste. As an early riser has enough time to work, he can earn more and become
wealthy. So the habit of early rising is the source of health, wealth and wisdom. An English proverb
says, “Early to bed and early to rise/ Makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise”. So everybody should
practise early rising.
45. A Street Hawker
A person who sells various things moving from street to street is called a street hawker. A street
hawker is a familiar figure in towns. He usually lives in a hut or in a slum. He is the vendor of a
variety of things. He carries his things sometimes on the head, sometimes in his hands and at some
other times in a small hand-cart. He sells toys, bangles, ribbons, clothings, sweets, fruits, utensils,
Page | 16
newspapers, fancy goods and things of domestic use by bringing them up to people's doors. He is
a clever fellow who knows how to run his business. He brings one kind of goods for children, another
kind for womenfolk and yet another kind for men. He chooses things for children that will attract
children and for women that will attract women. So he has to be very careful about what things to
sell. Thus he earns his living by selling different things to his customers. As he passes along the
street, he makes a peculiar cry to attract the attention of his customers. The children here and there
gather around him and stop him. The hawker generally chooses an hour when the master of the
family is away and the women are free from their household duties. He hopes thereby to make a
bargain. In towns everywhere we see hawkers and many of them are good business. On the
contrary, there is another kind of hawkers who buy newspapers, blank pots, old books, worn-out
clothes from the houses. However children are fond of a hawker but men do not like them. By
carrying the goods for sale in his hands or on his shoulders, he moves from door to door. Sometimes,
he goes from one street to another with his moving shop. A street hawker's life is not easy and
comfortable but it is rather difficult and full of hardship.
46. My Garden
My garden is the most favorite place of mine right now; it’s the source of refreshment and
enjoyment for me. I spend most of my leisure time in the garden. At front of our house, we have
enough land to make a garden. I got an idea last year from a paragraph and thought to start my
own garden. My father gave me all the information and bought me a few flower plants. I seed them
myself and fifty percent of the plants grew successfully. I was really thrilled and amazed to see the
real flower in my garden that boost my motivation and encourage me to make the garden bigger.
Then I planted lots of vegetables and I love them. My garden is very beautiful, lots of my friends
and relatives visit my garden often and they thanked me for this beautiful garden. Flower smell is
awesome and I feel really good. I am a nature lover and I hope I will make my garden bigger and
more beautiful. All of my leisure time, I work in the garden. It’s not really hard to do gardening.
Anyone can do it. If you love gardening, you need to try
47. Independence Day
26 March, our Independence Day, biggest state festival. On this day, the independence of
Bangladesh was declared. It is a memorable day in the history of Bangladesh. The day is a
national holiday. The day begins with 31 gunshots. Bangladesh was under Pakistan. The Pakistani
rulers were very cruel and barbarous to us. They launched an inhumane attack on the innocent
and peace loving people of this country on 25 March 1971. Thousands of people were killed. Many
women were raped. Hundreds of intellectuals are also killed. But after nine months blood shedding
struggle Bangladesh become independent. It is celebrated every year in the country with great
enthusiasm and fervour. All office, educational institutions, shops and factories remain closed on
this day. This day is celebrated with discussion, meeting, seminars and with various cultural
activities. The diplomats, political parties, social and cultural organizations and freedom fighters
pay homage to the martyrs. Our prime minister place floral wreaths at the National Musolium
Savar. People from all walks of life also come with rallies and processions. Sports and
tournaments are also organized including boat race, lathi khela etc. Smartly dressed parade of
defense forces, border guards, police, ansars and the vdp delights us all. The socio-cultural
organizations, cultural functions. To highlight the heroic and sacrifice 1971. People from all walks
should observe this day as it is obtained it much blood of the brave sons of this country.
48. A Winter Morning
Winter is the coldest season of the year. A morning in winter is misty and cold. There is dense fog
in everywhere. Things even at a little distance can hardly be seen. Everything looks hazy. This
causes disruption to the communication system. Dew drops fall at night. Sometimes cold waves
blow. It causes much sufferings to the children and old people. They suffer from cold and other
diseases. Village people gather straw and dry leaves to make fire to warm themselves. The old
and children bask in the sun. Usually, people get up late. In a winter morning, people in
Bangladesh enjoy different kinds of cake. Delicious sweetmeats are also prepared with date juice.
But a winter morning is a curse for the poor. They suffer much for want of warm clothes. They are
seen shivering in cold. Sometimes the news of death from the bitter cold is seen in the newspaper.
But the rich enjoy a winter morning to a great extent. They have a variety of warm clothes.
Besides, they enjoy delicious foods in a winter morning. However, the scene of a winter morning
Page | 17
disappears as the day advances. A winter morning is pleasant for someone’s and unpleasant for
the other.
49. A Street Beggar
We often come across poor beggars. They are a common sight. If we go to the bazaar to make
purchases, we inevitably find some beggars there. They appear saluting us. A beggar requests for
a few coins from us. We have to help him. The poor fellow’s plight is deplorable. He sits in the street
demanding something. Usually such people are blind, lame or lepers or persons suffering from
different diseases. Some of them are even cripples and have some bodily defect. The beggars
usually are found in filthy rags. They have a begging bowl or a stick in their hand. They, sometimes,
go from door to door and beg. Sometimes they get alms, but at other doors none cares for them.
The outward look of the beggars is very sickening. They do not have good look, as otherwise, the
people may not take pity on them and pay them a few coins. Some people scold them and others
do not treat them well. But he bears all this maltreatment. He goes about his trade as usual and
never cares for anyone. Some of the beggars are cheaters. They may be considered to be wolves
in sheep’s clothing. They commit thefts and do not have good morals. They do not use the collected
money in useful pursuits. But we cannot distinguish such people from the good natured fellows who
are really very poor. Because of these cheats sometimes the deserving beggars are deprived of the
help which they would have otherwise got. Beggary is not a good custom. The government has
already passed laws to end this malpractice. But none cares for the laws. Such poor people have
got to be properly settled in life. The government is helping them properly. It is taking care of them
in poor homes. The poor homes give them proper training in various trades. They are asked to work
and live. The government is going out of way to end this menace, but these people seldom co-
operate. Therefore, those who do not obey are arrested and trained.
50. Our Victory Day
The 16th December is our victory day. It is the memorable day in the history of Bangladesh. On
this day, we achieved victory from Pakistan. After the nine months of long struggle, the Pakistani
armies were bound to leave our dear motherland on this day. This day has great importance
because of many reasons. Now, Bangladesh is considered as an independent country in the
world. We started to gain our glorious advancement from this historic day. Our nation is
considered as a heroic nation. Actually this day is a day of great achievement for us. Every year
this day is observed with great solemnity and solidarity. The whole country wears a festive look.
This day begins with gun shot. Our national flag is hoisted on the top of each institution, shop and
shopping mall. Meetings, seminars and discussions are held in various places. People go to the
national memorial to show respect to the martyrs. On this day, we take oath against any kind of
injustice, tyranny and falsehood. However, it is a day of joy, hope and inspiration. This day will
remain ever fresh and ever green in the heart of each and every Bangalee.
51. Air Pollution
Air pollution mostly occurs in industrial towns in India and abroad. While technological
developments and industrialization have led to creation of wealth and prosperity, it has also
caused a massive pollution of the environment. The harmful burning of fuels such as coal and
petroleum in some major industries like automobile, electrical power plants, etc., cause air
pollution. Smoke emitted from factories and houses pollute the atmosphere. Excessive smoke and
fumes have a very bad effect on plants, animals and human beings. About 50 per cent of the air
pollution is primarily due to the rapid industrialization that has taken place in the 20th century.
Automobiles greatly pollute the atmosphere. Fumes from different types of motor vehicles cause
respiratory diseases like asthma and bronchitis. The problem caused by air pollution is worldwide.
It contaminates the atmosphere, damages buildings and historical monuments, harms the health
of the people, and causes respiratory diseases and increases gases like carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere. Nuclear plants are also a major threat. There is the risk of radioactive leaks. Nuclear
tests also pollute the air and lead to the warming of the earth’s atmosphere. The melting of ice-
caps at the poles is causing a rise in the sea level and flooding.
52. Traffic Jam
Due to some causes if a number of vehicles remain still and cannot move, then it is called traffic
jam. It is a common affair in big cities and towns in our country. It usually occurs in the busy areas
of a city or town. It is a major problem in that city. people face every day. There are many causes
Page | 18
of traffic jams. Population explosion is one of them. Compared to the number of people we have
no adequate facilities. Our roads and streets remain almost undeveloped whereas vehicles
increase rapidly. These vehicles do not get sufficient space to ply through the roads.
Consequently, a traffic jam occurs. Besides. our traffic control system is not sufficiently developed.
People do not want to abide by traffic rules. Various kinds of vehicles such as buses, trucks,
microbuses. CNG three-wheelers, rickshaws, pushcart, etc. run as their will. One vehicle tries to
overtake others. Then they are stopped on the road. Sometimes the jam is so severe that the
vehicles remain still at a place for hours together. It causes untold sufferings to the people who
move on the vehicles as well as on foot. It kills our valuable time and hampers, our work. This
problem can be solved by adopting some effective measures. Traffic rules should be imposed
strictly. Well planned spacious roads should be constructed. Public awareness is also needed in
this respect.
53. A Moonlit Night
A moonlit night, the full noon shines in its entire glory in the sky, is really charming and enjoyable.
It is really a night of dream and it presents a beautiful sight. In the autumn the sky remains
cloudless and the moon looks like a big silver disc in the sky. The shiny light of the moon floods
the earth and the sky. The moon’s rays reflecting on seas, rivers, ponds and hills create a music
spell. When the moon pours her light on the waves of water, it sparkles like a diamond. The
smooth rays of the moon please our eyes and mind. In a moon lit night, the grand sights of the
canals, rivers, tanks present cannot be described in a word. The whole nature looks bright and
appears in celestial light. The natural beauty of a moonlit night can better be realized than
described. People of all ages enjoy a moonlit night. Young boys play and little boys and girls make
funs and amuse themselves. Some people also visit their nearer house in this night. It seems that
the whole nature has taken a new form and everywhere is bright, bright and bright. A moonlit night
spreads a feeling of joy in all objects of nature. So, it is really enjoyable for the newly married
couple. Poets of all languages have sung highly of a moonlit night. Even, we forget our enmity with
others. We make a flock and conversation in different subjects with one another. The moonlit night
reminds us the mystery of creation of Allah. We can estimate the moonlit night as offering a
charming sight to all living beings. Indeed, a moonlit night is pleasant and fine.
54. A Farmer
A man who works in his field or other person’s field for leading his life and family is called a farmer.
Generally, he lives in a tinny house in the village. He also lives from hand to mouth. He has a
small hut of his own or he lives in another person’s house. He is a laborious and strong bodied
man. Every day he gets up early in the morning. Then he takes his bath and takes some stale rice
or breakfast with stale curry or some vegetables. After completing his morning meal, he goes to
his field to grow crops. Though he has no field of his own, he works in other person’s field like his
own and grows much crop. Several times he works from morning to afternoon in the field.
Sometimes he works morning to midnight if he cannot complete his daily work or he has much
work. He gets his wages at the end of his work or at the end of the day. Then he goes to market
to buy his daily goods and he returns home. Usually, he wears old and dirty cloths. He has no
ability to buy new clothes for him and his family members. The income of a farmer is not too high
to continue his life comfortably and happily. His life is full of sorrow and suffering. When he finds
no work at that time he and his family pass their time without eating. He lives below poverty line.
He looks older than his age. When he is unable to feed his family members properly at that time
his wife is bound to work in other people’s house or institution as a house made. He and his family
lead a sorrowful and miserable life. He has no high ambition and hope. He wants to eat and feed
his family normally. As a result, they suffer a lot from nutrition and a lot of diseases. He is unable
to educate his children due to acute poverty and for his illiteracy. In spite of his unhappy life, he
feels happy because he leads an honest life.
55. My Parents
We even can’t imagine how important it is to stay with parents. Those people who don’t have
parents they can realize that pain. Our father and mother is the most loving person in this world,
who loves us the most. We need to be aware of them. I am Alan from Chittagong. I live with my
parents and read in class seven; I have an elder sister who is reading in class ten. My father is a
Page | 19
teacher and my mother is a housewife. I see they work very hard for us. They are dreaming big to
give us a better life. They are very honest about their dream and thinking.
I love my parents very much. My father used to teach me at night and I enjoy that. He is a very
good person with a big heart. My mother is also a really caring woman. She takes care of the
whole family on her own. She does almost every work of the home. Sometimes, my sister, Alina
helps her a bit, but mom does almost everything. We can realize that our parents are really
working hard for us. They are trying to make their dream true in our life. Every parent is like this
and they love their kids very much.

shedding is a piece of bad news to the residential sector, educational institutions, medical sectors,
local business, office and factories, and agriculture. Due to light out the entire routine domestic
lifestyle get stuck. The students suffer before their exam nights or in attending class. Normal
productivity of running mills and factories and other industries get hampered due to this serious
problem. In hospitals, patients and doctors suffer a lot due to uncertain power cut which makes
operations and other treatment provided to patients stop. Agricultural sector faces damage to huge
quantity of crops and vegetable due to the same crisis. Though load shedding has been there for a
long time and has become a common affair of our day to day life, it is high time that the government
should take necessary steps to solve this national problem. By establishing more powerhouses and
power plant and taking legal steps against giving illegal connection, the government can put
significant effort to ensure electricity for everyone. Besides government, normal people should be
aware of saving this national asset. Awareness of saving electricity should be raised in all the people
and make them careful in avoiding the misuse of electricity. As our everyday life mostly depends on
the electrical gadget, machines, and computers and online; undoubtedly electricity is very essential
in our life to keep it uninterruptedly running. Load shedding causes unwanted and disgraceful
situation and problems in our socio-economic lifestyle which must be solved as early as possible.
60. The Importance of Learning English
English is an International Language. True to say that the world cannot go for a single day without
English. It is widely spoken and written language in the world. Most of the records, documents and
particulars are written in English. All the journals, magazines, articles and papers are also written in
English. So without knowing English it is quite impossible for us to know the latest information,
invention and new discoveries. The world is running so fast. We know that it is the age of information,
communication technology and science. All the internet activities are conducted in English. To
connect with the other person of the world within a moment, to send any application, document and
other writing material there is other language but English. In order to keep pace with the world there
is no other alternative to learning English. As a smart, modern, civilized and wise person one should
learn English. Not only this, but also to be a higher educated person English is a must. If we want
to earn vast knowledge and higher education in any branch, we are to take help from the books
which are written in English. It is clear to us that the world seeks the person who knows English well.
He can easily get service, mix with the other persons, enjoys more opportunities than others.
Moreover, it helps a man to get a good job easily. An expert person in English can easily earn vast
wealth by using English. So if we don’t know English, we will fail to keep pace with the progressive
force of the world. Many foreign guests and delegates come to our country. They don’t know our
mother tongue. So we need to learn English to communicate with them. From this we can say that
we need to learn English to join the advanced and developed world. So we should be very serious
and sincere about learning English as an emergency basis.
61. Country life and city life
From the beginning of human civilization, human beings began to form societies and started
residing in villages. With the passage of time, a man formed cities. The city life and country life are
different in advantages and disadvantages. Village life is natural and people in the village lead a
very simple life. The villagers wake up from sleep in the morning hearing the melodious songs of
birds. The sun shines brightly on the streams and fields and the flowers adorn nature. But city life
is very artificial. It is full of din and bustle. There, people lead a very artificial life. They wake up
from sleep hearing the sound of machines and vehicles. Yet, the city has some advantages that
are absent in the villages. Good schools and colleges, specialized doctors and modern hospitals
and the scope of earning are some of the advantages that are available in the cities. On the other
hand, disease, hunger and poverty are very common in the villages. Furthermore, and made
recreational facilities are available in the cities but in the villages, people can get pleasure walking
in the midst of nature. Thus city life and village life are
62. My Mother
My mother name is Nazma Begum. She is a housewife. I have never seen an amazing lady as like
my mom. She is really beautiful and kind. Most of the time she spends with us in the house. She
does all of the works. Before we all wake up, she gets up very early in the morning and starts
working. She cooks food and her food is really delicious. I love her cooking food a lot. When I stay
out of home, I miss her food a lot. She loves us very much. Every mother loves her kids. It’s a
Page | 21
universal truth. Mothers are selfless they do everything for us. They tried their best to raise us a
good kid. They sacrifice so many happiness’s in their life to make our future better. She is
hardworking, loving, caring, and supporting. When I going to do something new, she inspires me a
lot. I always love her cheers for my work. She is my teacher and guide as well. She helps me
doing my home works and taking preparation for the examination. She is guiding me to the good
path. I love my mother very much, she is the most important person in my life.

66. Perseverance
Perseverance is continued application of mind to a work once begun. It is a secret of success in life.
It is the twin brother of patience. Failures may come. But we should never yield to them. In fact,
failures are the stepping-stones to success. Perseverance brings win. The story of Robert Bruce
teaches us a good lesson. He who aspires always perspires. Success is not a gift of luck or fluke. It
is a child of hard labor. In any enterprise we are to experience hurdles. Doubts may crop up in our
mind. Obstacles may come on our way. But the spirit of perseverance should be kept intact in us.
Many great men of the world rose to prominence by sheer perseverance. They are the salt of the
earth. They all brave failures, never give an inch to depression and dismay. Ultimately their efforts
are crowned with success. Their life is our message. We should follow in their footsteps and
persevere with undaunted spirit. Then success will not be far behind. Life is one of ceaseless toil.
We are ever aspiring after true and lasting happiness. God in his wisdom decrees that we shall
obtain nothing for which we do not strive. All progress is gradual and through struggle. That is the
Law. Every one wishes to become great, good, powerful, and happy. Every man or woman setting
out on life’s journey feels no doubt that he or she will reach the goal. But the sight of the first hill they
have to climb unnerves most hearts. Now, you cannot reach the top of the mountain by simply
wishing for it. You can reach your goal only through perseverance.
67. Staple Food
Rice is a staple food of the people of Bangladesh. It is also one of the main foodstuffs of the
people of India, Burma, Japan, and some other countries. It is obtained from the seed of a plant
called paddy. Rich grows well in hot and moist climate and in low-lying land white heavy rainfall
occurs. Bangladesh is one of the largest producers of rich. Rice is mainly of four kinds, which grow
in our country. They Aus, Aman, Boro, and IRRI. Aus is grown in April and reaped in July or
August. Aman is transplanted in between July and August and reaped in December. Boro is in
winter and reaped in spring. Recently, IRRI is widely cultivated throughout the year for its high
yield. It grows well where irrigation facilities are available. When paddy ripens, grains are
separated from hay by getting trodden upon by oxen. Rich from paddy many is of two kinds. Atop
and Siddha. When paddy is dried in the sun and husked for rice, it is called atop or un-boiled rice,
when the paddy is first boiled and then dried and husked, it is called boiled rich. Husking is done
either by a mill or by Dheki. Rice is the chief food of Bangladesh. Various kinds of food are
prepared from rice. So rice is the most useful food grain of Bangladesh. The straw and the husks
of paddy are not also left without uses. They are used as fuel. No other cereal is as useful as rice
in Bangladesh. SO proper, steps should be adopted for ample production of this most vital
foodstuff.
68. How to Make A Garden
MY younger brother Raju reads in class nine. He does not know how to do gardening. I give him
the idea how he can do it practically. First, a small piece of land is chosen. The land should be
very close to the dwelling-house. The land is loosening with a spade. When the land is loosening,
the weeds are removed. Then the soil is manured well and kept exposed. The soil is given small
particle form and is leveled by a leveler. As a result, the soil of the garden is ready to sow seeds or
plantation. Next, the garden is fenced so well so that cows, goats, hen, and even the wicked
children cannot do any harm to it. Then possible flowerbeds are made per choice. Some seasonal
flowers can be grown all the year round. However, that seeds are sown. Thus, the gardening is
completed. After that, the garden is weeded out and the plants are taken care of. The garden is
also watered frequently. Finally, the flower fills the heart of the gardener with joy.
69. A Village Doctor
A village doctor is the most familiar figure in the village. He renders a very valuable service to the
village people. He opens his dispensary either in the parlor of his house or in a room in the village
market. He leads a very busy life. He examines his patients at his dispensary in the morning and
gives them medicine. Then he goes out to attend the private calls. He goes out either on foot or by
bicycle. He is seen to attend the patients with an air of a qualified doctor. He is very regular in his
duties. He takes special care of his patients. He looks upon them as his own relatives. This is why
he is loved and respected by one and all in the village. He is badly needed in the village. It is
because qualified doctors are hardly available in the village. He always gives good advice to all
and soundly. Moreover, they can have cheap treatment under him. Not only that they always find
Page | 23
his by them in their weal and woe. Thus a village doctor acts as a great friend to the village
people.
70. How I spend my pastime
Pastime means spending one`s free or leisure time by doing any enjoyable work. But very often
people make mistake to differentiate the definition of pastime. They think that pastime means
spending the time in doing mundane or useless works. It is not a logical thinking. Pastime
necessarily does not mean misusing of time. Pastime is related with one’s hobbies. Pastime
depends and varies from person to person. It is entirely one`s own choice and decision on how to
spend his/her pastime. When it comes to me, I have got some favourite pastimes. Among them I
often spend my pastime by doing two activities. The first one is reading books and another is
listening music. Fiction is more preferable to me. In fiction, my favorite authors are Agatha Christie,
Md. Jafar Ikbal, Humayun Ahmed and so on. Of course, Sherlock Holmes is always favorite to me.
It is not only favorite of mine but also many readers. I always try to continue reading as the best way
of spending my pastime. This is one of the best constructive ways and hobbies. I have been
benefitted a lot from this pastime. My English vocabulary, grammar, writing style and writing
efficiency have been improved unimaginably. Evergreen songs are all time favorite to me. Singers
like Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle. I also like music of A.R.Rahman. Music is
believed to have and work as healing therapy. It works miraculously when one is going through
some kind of stress, tension, in short of any kind of mental disturbances. Music refreshes mind.
These are the two favorite activities which are my ideal way of pastime. These are constructive and
informative ways of spending time. I enjoy these two pastimes. I also like to watch television and
visit many historical and tourist places.
71. How to Keep Fit
There is a well-known proverb that ‘Health is wealth.’ Here, good health means soundless of body
as well as quiet mind. It is the root of all happiness. A healthy body is free from all types of diseases.
If someone wants to keep himself fit, he has to follow the rules of health and sanitation. Firstly, he
has to take a balanced diet moderately in his everyday meals. It bears all the food value. Nutritious
foods like milk, fishes, eggs, fruits, vegetables etc. are compulsory for him in his food items. Beside
it, he has to drink enough water because water is very important for our health. Our kidneys cannot
continue their work without water. Similarly, water helps to digest food, control the heat and keep
blood healthy. Before taking water he has to boil or filter because of removing the harmful germs
from it. Proper sleep and taking rest are also necessary for him. So he has to go to bed early at
night and rise early in the morning. Physical fitness is the most important form for him. So, in order
to keep physical fitness he is to take physical exercise. Physical exercise keeps him fit for work and
makes him active beside energetic. Cleanliness is another point for physical fitness. So, he should
take a bath every day and keep his environment neat and clean. After following the rules and
regulations about health any one can keep him physically fit.
72. Hason Raja

philosopher and folksongs writer and composer. His father’s name is Dewan Ali Raja, and his
mother’s name is Hurmuth Jahan Bibi. Dewan Hason Raja Choudhury was born on 21 December
1854 in the village of Bishwanath. He gained international recognition few years after his death,

University. Hason's poetry reflects his spiritual pursuits and the ever-changing nature of the world.
Poet Rabindranath was overwhelmed with the depth of Hason Raja’s thought, the insight, the
supreme truth and the ultimate goal. Despite his financially privileged upbringing, Hason Raja had
set up a number of local and religious centers like masques, temples and churches. He was widely
engaged in charities within his immediate communities. He donated a vast land properties for the
well-being of the people. He was also interested about well-being and protection of birds and animals
life. After the death of his elder step-brother, followed by the death of his father Ali Raja, he had put
the power and responsibility of the whole family. Unfortunately, the severe earthquake of 1897 in
india had ruined all his properties, lost many of his kins and relatives. The earthquake left a big
impact on his mind, life, philosophy and his music. Hason Raja died in 1922, years before his
contribution to the poetry of Bengal was mentioned in lectures at Oxford University by Nobel poet
laureate Rabindranath Tagore 1930. Two museums were established in his name in two places.

73. Our School Garden
School garden means the place which is covered with different types of vegetables and flowers,
situated in the area of the school. Generally every reputed and popular school in cities and towns
has school garden. It may be small, or large. Like others we have also a garden in our school. It is
a flower garden. It is situated beside of our class room near our school weal. Whenever we get time,
we work in it. In our school garden we grow many types of flowers such as, the rose, the marigold,
the china-rose, the jasmine, the tube rose, the china-box etc. On our holy days we pass our time by
working in our school garden. Sometime we lose the soil with spade and weed out the grass. Every
afternoon after completing our classes we water the plants. Beside our flower garden we also grow
different types of vegetables and fruits. We put a strong fence around our school garden so that
cattle and naughty boys cannot do any harm to our school garden. In the morning we gain much
pleasure when we see our garden full of various blooming flowers. They spread sweet smell. The
garden also looks very charming. The beauty and sweet smell of the flowers make us jolly. When
our friends come from other school to visit our school we take them into our school garden and show
them various flowers. They become very glad and they thank us. Before making this garden some
of us were the boy of ill health. Day by day they became weak. We started the garden to have a
sound health and our health, in fact, improved. Every day we work in the garden at least two hours
after completing our classes. As a result of our health runs well. We also keep a care taker to look
after the garden. Though gardening is very hard working but it is enjoyable too. So now we are very
proud of our school garden. Every day our guardians and other people visit our school to take their
children’s condition. When they come in our school they visit to our garden. When they visit our
school garden and they admire our school garden. At last they thank us and also our teachers.

represent a model for an ideal school. Our school stands on the Buriganga. The campus covers

the principal’s room add to the beauty of the campus. We like our school campus very much.
75. How to keep The Classroom Clean
The keeping of the classroom clean is very essential. It is not a very hard job. First, you will get
together all the students in the class and brief them about cleanliness. They should be given an
idea of the necessity of cleanliness. You must want them a few groups. Such as ‘group A’ will
brush, ‘group B’ will sweep the room. Then, one group will move the chair, table, and benches for
easy cleaning. Another group will be ready to sweep the spider nets around the roofs and corners
of the classroom. Next, the chair, table, and benches will be rearranged as they were before
cleaning. After that, everybody will be ready to bust out all the dust from the chair, table, and
benches. Finally, their hands and faces should be washed in water. However, students should
take a special interest in cleaning the blackboard. Teachers want the blackboard clean at the
beginning of the lesson.
76. My favorite sport personality
There are many sport persons in the world. The entire sports people are not favorite to me. My
favorite sport person is an Bangladeshi international cricketer. He is Shakib Al Hasan . He in one
of the greatest cricketers of the world. He is an internationally celebrated person. Actually, he is an

77. International Mother Language Day
In the history of our country, people of the country have many days to remember. 21 st February is
mentionable one. The day is observed as the International Mother Language Day. It is a red letter
day in our life. It has its own background. Our Language day, “Omor Ekushe February” was declared
as International Mother Language Day by the UNESCO On November 17, 1999.This great occasion
reminds us of those heroic sons of the soil who sacrificed their lives for the establishment our mother
tongue ‘Bangla’ as the state language in 1952. Rafiq, Salam, Jabbar, Barkat were among those who
sacrificed their lives for this great cause. On this day, at dawn people wearing black badges on their
shoulders go to the “Shaheed Minar” barefooted with flowers to pay homage to the martyrs. They
sing the mournful song “Amar vaiyer rokte rangano…….”. We observe the day to mark the
importance of the day. It has great image and tradition in the country. This is a national holiday. We

amusement all over the country. On the occasion of this day social, political and cultural
organizations arrange different cultural functions. Newspapers bring out special supplements while
radio and satellite television channels air special programmes. This day is a source of inspiration for
us. We are proud of the day.
78. Internet
The Internet is a modern international computer network. It is a speedy transmitting system of
information with the help of computers and networks. Its functions are smooth, easy and rapid. A
man can dial a number from his computer and a link to the internet will soon give him a connection
in and outside the country according to his expectation. It is a milestone in the modern world of
communication. Many educational institutions are greatly benefitted through the use of the
internet. Through it, we find all the important information stored on the computer. It plays an
effective role in the field of trade and commerce. Internet-based e-commerce has become very
popular with the customers because the customers can buy or choose anything without going to
market. Students can go through several books from the libraries without going there. In the near
future, the students will be able to take their class lectures from anywhere in the world through the
Internet. Bangladesh’s Internet has opened a new dimension in our communication system. But
the use of the Internet in our country is still expensive. The majority of people in Bangladesh don’t
have access to the internet. Bangladesh govt. is taking many steps to make the internet
accessible to all.

Our national poet, Kazi Nazrul Islam is my favorite singer. He is not only a singer but also a
composer of songs. He composed and sung thousands of songs which are known as Nazrul
Geeti. His songs have a perennial and universal appeal. He sang his song in a majestic tone. The
melody of his songs enters into our hearts. This is why Nazrul is my favorite singer. He has sung
patriotic songs, Islami gazals, romantic love songs, humanity’s songs etc. 'O Mon Romjaner Oi
Rojar Seshe’ and 'Amaye Nohego Bhalobasho Tumi' are two of his famous songs. I like his songs
very much. His songs have the greatest appeal to me. They inspire me with hope and courage.
Nazrul is no longer in us but his songs inspire us for all times.

81. Mobile Phone or Cell Phone
Mobile phone is a telephone system that works without any wire. Mobile phone is one of the
wonderful wonders of science. It has added a new dimension to our life and to communication
system. It can be moved easily and quickly from place to place.
Through mobile phone, we can send messages to distant places, play games and sports, know
about time. Solve the work of calculation, be aware of different kinds of news and view. At present
the popularity of the mobile phone is increasing. Many companies are also being set up for selling
mobile phone. The price of mobile phones also decreasing in comparison with the past. People
are being encouraged to buy a mobile-phone set a t a cheaper rate. However with the touch of
science and technology, the whole world seems to be a global village, in a very single moment, we
can communicate with the people living in a very distant place. With all its advantages, the mobile
phone has still some drawbacks in disguise. Though the price of it is decreasing, per minute bill is
not decreasing. So everybody cannot possess it. Scientists have recently discovered that mobile
phone can cause cancer to the users. Besides, it has become a fashion with the young people.
Last but not the least, terrorists are using it to spread out terrorism all around the world. But in
spite of all these disadvantages, it can be finalized here that the necessity of a mobile phone in
exchanging messages, cannot be denied in the true sense of the term in our practical life.

A substance that flows freely and is not a solid or a gas is a liquid substance. Water in one of the
five elements, namely, earth, earth, fire, water and ether. It is a compound substance composed of
hydrogen and oxygen. Pure water is colourless and tasteless. The main sources of water are the
oceans, the river, the springs and the rains. Of these, the rain water is the purest of all. Water is
life. No life is possible without water. Crops cannot grow without water. We take bath in water to
clean our utensils and washing our clothes. The water that we drink must be pure. Impure water is
full of germs and should not be drunk at all. So water should not be allowed to get polluted in any
way.
83. The Taj Mahal
The Taj Mahal is one of the most beautiful buildings in the world. It was built in 1631 on the banks

Good health is an asset. It is the most valuable possession in human life. To speak the truth, it is
the greatest wealth of all things on earth. It is said that good health is the source of all happiness.
Good health and happiness go side by side. Health is the sound state of the body as well as of
mind. A healthy man must have soundness of mind as well as soundness of body. To be healthy,
one must grow up in a balanced way. To keep good health, one has to eat a balanced diet, drink
clean water, take fresh air, rest properly and take physical exercise regularly. For the retention of
mental health, one has to control one's emotions and one has to have patience and respect for
other people's feelings and rights. However, life without good health is boring and unbearable. It is
so often heard that a person possessing ill health prefers death to life. So, everyone should take
care of his health.

It will be stealing. Nobody will do it. Because, Conscience will see them stealing. There is something
in one’s mind called conscience. It tells anybody whether his actions are right or wrong. Then his
conscience will tell him “This is a wrong thing. He must not do it.” If he steals or does a bad thing,
his conscience will prick him and trouble him. And he will never have his peace of mind. So to be a
good and happy person, he should have a clear conscience.
86. An Ideal Student
The student, who is sincere in studies, good in nature, modest in behavior, honest in thought and
action, obedient to parents and seniors, disciplined in habit, is considered as an ideal student. He
always gives much importance in acquiring knowledge and attending all the good qualities. He
performs his duties to God, to his parents and society. Generally, he is sociable and hardworking
and he loves his country. Similarly, he is seen to take part in games and sports as well as other co-
curricular activities. Again, he is very friendly and co-operative with his classmates and friends. He
always tries to assist the weak students in learning the lessons. He shows much respect to his
parents, teachers, and seniors. He is ready to carry out their all instructions. Similarly, he leads a
strictly disciplined life and spends the highest amount of time in the acquisition of knowledge. An
ideal student is disciplined and obedient. At home he obeys his parents, and at school he obeys his
teachers. He always abides by the rules and regulations of his educational institution. He is
disciplined in his everyday activities of life. He avoids bad company. He often persuades bad boys
from doing evils deeds. He does not waste his time and energy in strikes and
demonstrations. Again, An ideal student is also a true patriot. He is prepared to serve his country
from heart and soul and sacrifices himself for the welfare of his country. He does not take part in
such activities as cast a slur on the name of his country. Besides, he engages himself in social
works especially when there is any natural calamity like flood, he collects relief from the rich people
of the society. Then he distributes them to the flood affected people. In a word, an ideal student
reflects all the good qualities and presents him as a role model for other students.
87. Nakshi Kantha"
Nakshi kantha is a traditional trend of our culture. It is sort of embroidery quilt. The name ‘nakshi
kantha’ was taken from a Bengali word naksha which means artistic pattern. Actually, the word
nakshi kanta became famous after the poet Jasim Uddin’s poem ‘nakshi kanthar math’ was
published in 1929. The traditional craft is famous for its embroidery .Mainly, it is made of colorful
thread and cloth together with different pattern and design. It has bought about a revolutionary
change in our Bengali test of fashion. It is not only famous in Bangladesh but also indigenous to
West Bengal in India. Besides that, it has been prepared by the rural women for centuries. From the
beginning, it was made for family use, but now the scenery is completely changed because now it
is not only produce for family use but also for commercial purpose. Everyone believes that, nakshi
kantha enhance the beauty of house. Otherwise, it has a profound relationship with life and culture.
Mymensingh, Rajshahi, Bogra and Jessore are most famous for this craft in Bangladesh. We can
find them in many expensive handicraft shops in cities. It is also sold in fashion shop.
88. A Street Accident
A street accident is a regular phenomenon in the highways and cities of our country. Every year it
kills hundreds of lives. The indirect effect of this invisible monster is the downfall and untold suffering
of hundreds of thousands of other people who are family members of those victims. A number of
factors are responsible for this mishap including the inattentiveness of drivers, the working of a driver
over too long a time at a stretch, the bad conditions of the streets, and most importantly, the maudlin
competitiveness of the drivers. In Bangladesh, every day we find the news of road accident in our
daily newspapers and the screen of television. It really makes us very shocked. Last month I faced
such type of pathetic road accident. It occurred in Mirpur road near Kolabagan bus stand. When I
was standing on the road and waiting for the bus. Then I saw a little boy who was trying to cross the
busy road. When he was crossing the road at that time a bus was coming towards him with a great
speed. But within a short time, it ran over the body of the boy and at once the boy was seriously
injured. After sometimes when he was taken to the hospital, the doctor declared him death. Really,
it made me more pathetic and I cannot forget it easily.

89. My Best Friend
Friends are the important part of everyone's life. A friend is someone with whom you can share
your joys and sorrows and who is there to help in case of need. I have lots of friends in school and
at home. All are my good friends. Amongst them, Alina is a friend who is very special to me. She is
in my class and my neighbor too. I am lucky enough to have a true friend like Alina. I value her
friendship. We both are class fellows for last four years. Alina has many good qualities. Her helpful
nature makes people like her. My mother too is fond of her. She is soft-spoken and gives respect
to elders. She is an ideal girl and her behavior is a model for other students. She is very punctual
and regular to school. Her books and exercise note-books are very clean. Moreover, she has a
very good handwriting. Alina is incredibly polite, sensible affected and sweet-tempered. She is
usually helpful to others in their time of want and never feels them to be obligated. Teachers like
Alina as she is very good at her lessons never neglects her studies, and never gives a chance to
complain. She is genius in mathematics, speaks and writes English with an ease, has an aptitude
for science. She helps the weak students in their lessons. She is a very good singer and dancer
also. She takes an active part in the school activities and encourages me to take part. The other
day when I fell ill, she visited me at my home. As I was unable to go to school, she helped me in
studies also. She used to bring notes and homework. I have so many things to learn from her each
day. She motivates me to do well in studies and school activities. I am proud of my best friend
Alina. She is the source of joy and inspiration to me and all. She is a medicine to my life. It is a
blessing to have a friend like Alina and I am glad that I am getting lots of opportunities to learn
many of things from her. I would cherish her friendship forever and wish to keep her as my best
friend forever. I can't imagine my life without her.
90. A Rickshaw Puller
A rickshaw puller is a poor day labourer who is earns his livelihood by pulling rickshaw. He is a
familiar figure in our country. Generally he lives in a slum area. he carries passengers and goods in
his rickshaw from one place to another on payment. very few rickshaw pullers have their own
rickshaws. usually, a rickshaw puller heirs a rickshaw from the owner on daily basis. He comes out
of there the roads and streets early on the morning and works with his rickshaw till late hours of
night. he is generally gentle by nature. he has to work in all good and bad weather. Sometimes he
feels tired but cannot take rest. a rickshaw puller earns only Tk. 10-150 a day. sometimes, he
decreases to less than Tk. 100. then he faces more difficulties in maintaining his family. he has to
live from hand to mouth. He cannot provide food, education and medicine to his family properly.
even they have to starve sometimes. In spite of all this odd conditions, he feels proud to live on his
fair earnings from his sweat. He find great pleasure to serve human being at a minimum cost. His
services is really very great. He is friend of all.
91. My Visit to a Place of Historical Interest
A historical place means a place which bears the testimony of history. It surely has some
important past events worth notable in history. A visit to a historical place is not only interesting
and exiting but also educative. It is my spontaneous habit to visit the historical places of our
country whenever I get time and chance because it gives me much pleasure.
Last winter, I visited Bagerhat, a historical place. The place is famous for the Shat Gombuj
Mosque and the Mazar of Khan Jahan Ali. I along with my two friends started our journey on the
fixed day, and reached the destination after an eight hours journey. When we reached there it was
night. So we spent the night at a residential hotel in Bagerhat. Next morning we went out to visit
the Shat Gombuj Mosque and the Majar of Khan Jahan Ali. It is three miles away from Bagerhat
and we reached there by rickshaw. We were surprised to see the architectural structures of the
mosque. It stands on sixty pillars and has seventy seven exquisitely curved domes.
The area of mosque is very large and charming. There is a long tank near the mosque named
‘Ghoradighi’. The mosque has been declared as a world heritage site. In fact, this mosque is one
of the greatest tourist attractions of Bangladesh. We came to know that this mosque was used not
only as a prayer hall but also as a court of justice. We also felt ecstasy to see the unique design of
the Mazar of Khan Jahan Ali. It stands on a raised ground. The tomb is made of cutting stone.
There is a big tank in front of the mazar. There are some crocodiles in this big tank. When the
caretaker called them, they came near. It was a wonderful experience. Then we visited many
social works of Khan Jahan Ali such as roads, public buildings etc.

It was a great pleasure for me to be at Bagerhat. It was indeed a rewarding visit. The sweet
memory of this visit will remain ever fresh in my mind
92. Good Food/Nutritive Food
Good food does not mean the costly food. The food which is helpful for our body, mind and health
and which helps to prevent all the diseases from our body is considered as good food. Generally, a
balanced diet contains all elements of food-carbohydrate, protein, fat, vitamin, mineral salt and
water. We cannot avoid eating food because it gives us energy and the nutritional requirements we
need to survive. Despite the many types of food available for us to enjoy, we should still remember
to eat mostly fruits and vegetables because these are the only foods that have high nutritious
importance. They are essential in promoting good health and keeping us fit from the insides,
because eating too much unhealthy products such as fast foods have no nutritional value at all.
Meat is also important because these are rich in protein and iron, as well as other nutrients that
fruits and vegetables alone cannot give. It’s also important to choose the proper types of meat to
stay healthy, such as bony meats and seafood. Grains also make up an important part of a healthy
diet because they are loaded with fiber, antioxidants, b-vitamins, and minerals. The eating of more
grains has significant health benefits such as lower risk of: Heart disease, fatness, indigestion, and
certain kinds of cancers. It’s highly recommended to consume grains and other forms of fiber on a
daily basis; good sources include brown bread, barley, and turmeric.
93. A Day Laborer
A day laborer is he who has no land of his own and earns his bread by the sweat of his brow. He
may work as a sweeper, a blacksmith, a mason, a carpenter, a goldsmith, a peasant and as earth
digger. His service is essential for the country. A day laborer is very poor. He can hardly make
both ends meet. He has no fixed income. He gets wages if he can work. During rainy days he
finds no work and he has to starve along with his family. He can hardly buy clothes or fancy things.
He produces crops by his labor. He builds houses, skyscrapers out he himself lives in slums. He
sets railway lines and highways. He works in the dockyard. He carries heavy loads of earth and
digs canals. He also works in ports. He works in mines. Drilling in gas fields is made possible by
his labor. He brings minerals from the bottom of the earth. He melts iron and makes useful tools
for us. In this way, he does many kinds of work to earn his livelihood. In our country, the life of a
day laborer is full of uncertainty and tension. We all should sympathize with our work. So, every
one of us should try to improve a lot of these day laborers.

“Why are you putting the food into the pockets of your dress?” said the rich man. “I am putting

2. A Liar Shepherd/ The tiger and the cowboy
Once upon a time there was a shepherd boy in a village. Every day he was herding goats in the
pasture away from the village. The shepherd was a naughty child. He liked nosy to others. On a
hot day, he was herding his goats in a pasture, not far from his village. Suddenly, he had a bad
idea to lie to the villagers. Then he cried out, “There are wolves! There are wolves! Please …
please … please…!” “The wolf will eat our goats.” He hoped the villagers heard him and
immediately ran toward the lowland. Villagers who heard the cries of the boy immediately ran to
the pasture to save goats them. But when they arrived, the boy started laughing heartily to the
villagers. Next day, the shepherd boy again repeated the trick. He screamed louder than ever,
“there are wolves …. There is a wolf…. Villagers back rushing to save their goats. Shepherd boy
came back roaring with laughter. At last actually a wolf came over to the goats, the herd boy. The
shepherd boy was so scared and immediately shouted loudly, “Please… please…, there are
wolves will eat my goat. Please… please…!” The villagers heard the cries of the shepherd boy.
But they said nothing, thought surely it was a hoax shepherd boy again. So they remained silent in
the village to continue their work. Poor shepherd boy, all his goats gone devoured the wolves.
That’s the fate that befell the child who frequently lies: though telling the truth, no one would
believe.
3. A friend in need is a friend in deed/ The Story of Two Friends and Bear
Once there lived two friends in a village. They were very intimate and promised to help each other.
One day in the evening two friends were passing through a lonely jungle. There lived many wild
animals in the jungle. After walking for a while they saw a bear coming towards them. Both of them
got frightened and were in a fix what to do. One of the friends knew how to climb up a tree and at
once he climbed up a tree. The other did not know how to climb but knew that the bear does not
eat any dead animal. So, finding no other way he laid down the ground just like a dead man. The
bear came near and smelt his body. He stopped breathing for some time. Thinking him dead the
bear went away. Seeing the bear going away, the first friend got down the tree and said, “What
did the bear whisper into your ear?” The other friend replied, “The bear advised me not to trust
such a friend who runs away leaving his friend in danger.”
4. Unity Is Strength/Industry brings success
There was an old farmer. He had four sons. They were all grown up. But they had no good relation
with one another. They were disobedient and always quarreled among themselves. The old man
was very much dissatisfied with them and tried to make them united. But they didn’t pay any heed
to him. At last, he made a plan to teach his sons how to live in unity. To materialize his pan, one
day he called his sons together and said, “I have called you to give my last advice. I will not live
long. But I feel very unhappy to see you quarrel among yourselves.” He told his eldest song to
bring some sticks. The son brought some sticks. The old man asked him to bind the sticks
together. He bound them into a bundle. Then the old man ordered him to break the bundle. He
tried but couldn’t break it. The old man told all of his sons to break the bundle and they tried one
by one. They tried their best. But none of them was successful. Then the old man asked the sons
to untie the bundle. When they did it, he asked them to break the sticks separately. They broke the
sticks one by one very easily. The old man raised his head and said, “My sons! Take a lesson
from it. You could not break the bundle of sticks when they were bound together. But it was not
hard for u to break them separately. If you remain united like the sticks and do not quarrel, nobody
can harm you. On the other hand, if you quarrel among yourselves, you will lose strength and your
enemies will easily do you harm. So live in peace.” The sons got the point and promised to follow
their father’s advice. At this, the father became very happy and prayed to Allah for their success.
5. The fox and the grapes
Once a hungry fox was searching for food in the forest. After a while, he came to a vineyard. He
was very tempted at the sight of the ripe grapes. The grapes were hanging very high. He wished
to have a delicious meal of the ripe grapes. He could not resist his temptation to have taste of the
ripe grapes. So he jumped and jumped to reach the grapes. But the bunches of the ripe grapes
Page | 67
were too high for the fox to reach. The fox tried again and again, but failed each time. The poor fox
became very tired as he repeatedly and ceaselessly jumped to reach the bunches of the ripe
grapes. He took some rest and then tried his best again but in vain. At last, he could understand
that there was no hope of getting the grapes. So he went away dejectedly and broken heartedly.
He consoled himself by murmuring “The grapes are sour. So do not wish to eat them.”
6. The Ungrateful Mouse
There lived a saint in a forest. He was very kind. Once a mouse ran to him and took shelter in his
lap. The mouse was trembling in fear because a cat had chased it. The saint felt pity for the poor
mouse. So he turned the mouse into a big cat. The mouse became very happy and began to live
in the hut of the saint. After a few days, a dog chased the cat. The cat became afraid and ran to
the saint. The saint saw everything and then turned the cat into a tiger. The dog saw the tiger and
went away. The tiger began to live in the forest without any fear. He thought that he was the king
of the forest. On a rainy day, the tiger became very hungry, but he could not catch any animal for
his food. So finding no other way, he attacked the saint to eat him. The saint became surprised
and thought the tiger had forgotten his past. So it would not be wise to give him chances
7. Slow and Steady Wins the Race/ The hare and tortoise
Once there was a hare. He was very proud of his speed. One day he was going back to his house.
A tortoise was also returning to his house. Suddenly the hare stopped the tortoise and said, “You
slow coach! I feel pity for your speed.” “You need not worry friend, hare”, said the tortoise. “If you
like I can run a race with you.” “Ok, I am ready”, said the hare.
At once both of them started. In a moment the hare got ahead of the tortoise. The hare stopped
half way and looked back. “I may easily take a short nap and then overtake him,” the hare said to
herself. Then in no time she fell fast asleep. The tortoise was moving slowly with his little feet. He
came creeping up the place, never stopping to look behind.
The hare awoke and looked forward to see the tortoise. She sprang up and attempted to start on
like the wind. She said, “Where is the tortoise?” From the end of the field the tortoise replied,
“Hare, hare, I am winning the race.” anymore. He at once turned the tiger into a mouse again.
8. A Foolish Crow and a sly fox
Once there was a crow. He was hungry and looking something to eat. After a long search he was
able to get a piece of bread. It held the piece in its beak. He flew to a tree nearly. The crow was
about to eat it when a fox appeared. The fox was very hungry. It saw the crow holding the piece of
bread in its beak. It wanted to get the bread. The fox was very cunning. it thought out a scheme to
be fool the crow. It told the crow that it sang very well. It flattered the crow and asked it to sing a
song. The foolish crow was tricked. It felt happy and started singing. As it opened its beak to sing,
the piece of bread fell down. The fox picked up the piece and ran away.
9. The thirty Crow / The clever crow / Where there is will there is a way/ Necessity is the
mother of invention
It was a hot summer day. There was scorching heat of the sun. A crow became very thirsty. It
wanted to drink water but there was no water around it. So, it began to fly but did not find any
source of water anywhere.
The crow was very hopeful and patience. It was clever too. So, it did not lose heart and kept on
flying. At last it found a jar in a garden. It became very pleased. It flew down and sat on the jar. But
alas! There was a little water at the bottom of the jar and it was out of its reach. Hence, it tried to
turn the jar over again and again but brought no result. After several efforts, the crow got tired and
disappointed. In despair when it was about to leave the place, it noticed a heap of pebbles
nearby. It got hope and hit upon a plan. The crow picked up some pebbles and started dropping
into the jar one after another. As a result, the water of the jar rose up little by little. When the water
came to the brim of the jar, the crow drank its heart content and flew away. In this way, the strong
will of the crow helped it to meet its thirst.
10. Little learning is dangerous
There lived a man in a village. He had a great attraction to English and so he went to a teacher.
The teacher began to teach him, but the man was dull-headed. His teacher tried his best to teach
him English but the man could not understand the rules of grammar. However, the teacher
released him. The man grasped only three English words. He learned ‘yes’, ‘no’ and very well. But
the man did not know their meaning. He came to his own village and told the villagers that he was
Page | 68
well-versed in English. He used the three words while speaking with any man. If anybody asked
him any question or discussed a thing with him, he would say either ‘yes’ or no or ‘very well’. One
night, a theft took place in a house of the village and the police were informed of it. A police officer
went to that place for investigation. He asked everybody if he knew anything about the theft. But
the villagers told him that they did not know who ‘did it and how. At last the police officer said to
the man, ‘Do you know anything about the theft? I think you have done it.” The man them and
there said, ‘Yes’. The police officer again inquired. “Have you any objection if we home, they kept
their sticks as they were. But the servant who stole the stick shortened it by an inch. The next day
when everybody submitted the sticks, it was found that one stick was short by an inch. Then the
thief was detected and he was given punishment.
11. The Honest Wood-Cutter / Honesty Is the Best Policy/ Honesty Is Always Rewarded
Everywhere / The Poor Wood-cutter and The Water-goddess/A good act gets it’s return.
Once there lived a poor wood cutter. But he was honest. Every day he went out to cut wood in the
forest. He earned his livelihood by selling wood in the market. One day while cutting wood beside
a river, his axe slipped out of his hand and fell into water. He did not know how to swim and the
axe was the only means of his daily earnings. He became very sad thinking how he would
maintain his family. So, he sat beside the river and began to cry bitterly. Seeing this, the water-
goddess took pity on him. She appeared before him and asked the reason of his crying. The
wood-cutter told her of his misfortune. After hearing all, the water-goddess dived into water and
brought a golden axe. Seeing the axe, the wood-cutter told that it was not his own. The water-
goddess dived again and came out with a silver axe. The wood-cutter refused to take it as it was
not his axe too. For the third time, the water-goddess went back into water and came back with his
real iron-made axe with wooden handle. “That’s mine”, the wood-cutter cried out gaily. He became
very delighted and thanked her. The water-goddess impressed most seeing the honesty of the
poor wood-cutter and offered him all other two precious axes as reward. Thus honesty is
rewarded everywhere.
12. Grasp All, Lose All/ The greedy farmer/ A wonderful goose
Once upon a time there lived a farmer in a village. The farmer was very poor and within his small
income he was unable to continue his family properly. He always thought how to increase his
income. One day he bought a goose from the market. From this goose, he hoped to get more
eggs and geese. After some days when the goose became matured, it started laying eggs. The
eggs were golden and it made the farmer so happy. Every morning the goose laid a golden egg
and the farmer used to sell the golden egg to the market. Within a short time the luck of the farmer
became changing. Gradually he became rich. Actually, the farmer was very greedy and impatient.
So, one day he thought that if he cut the belly of the goose he would get all the eggs at a time and
by this way he would be rich overnight. So, to have all the eggs at a time one day he took a sharp
knife and cut the belly of the goose. But alas! There was no egg inside it. He was so sorry and
started crying. Finally, he realized his fault and the reason behind losing all is greediness.

long hours at night?” The son replied, “I thought it would be impolite to wake my sleeping mother.”
Bayezid’s mother became very pleased to hear such an answer from her son. She prayed to Allah
to bless her son with the highest spiritual honour. Allah granted her prayer and made Bayazid one
of His greatest devotees.
14. A Lion and a Mouse
One cold winter a lion was a lion was sleeping in its cave. At that time a mouse was playing
nearby. After a moment, while playing by chance it ran over the lion’s body. At this, the lion woke
up and became very angry. With a terrible roar and anger he caught the mouse and said, “you tiny
creature, how dare you tease me? I will kill you. “The mouse began to tremble in fear and begged
for its life. It also said. “Your majesty, I am a little creature but I can help others. Please let me go,
sooner or later, I may help you. Besides, if you kill me, it will bring no fame to you.” Hearing this,
the lion burst into laughter and said, “o you! Are you suitable to help me?” However, he set the
mouse free and told me to do its own job. After sometime, the lion fell into a hunter’s trap. The lion
tried his best to be free from the net but could not. He began to roar and said, “Save me please,
save me please. “ Listening this, the mouse came swiftly and found the lion in a trap. The mouse
said, “your Majesty, please don’t worry and keep quiet. I well-cut cut the net into pieces and
thereby you will be able to come out. The mouse cut the net into pieces and the lion became free.
Being free, the lion said, “You are small in size but worthy. You have saved my life and many
thanks to you.” In fact, the strong or mighty someone is also dependent on the weak one. From
then, the lion was kind harted to the tiny creatures. From the story we learn that we should have
fellow feelings among us and rich should show kindness to the poor.
15. A Kind-Hearted Boy/ A boy and his kindness
Once a school boy named Ahsanullah was going home after completing his class. When he was
crossing the road, he saw an old woman lying on the road. She was senseless. There was nobody
to help her. The road on which the woman lay senseless was a busy one. Speedy buses and
trucks were plying on the road. And the woman could be run over by any vehicle. So the boy with
the help of a passer-by brought the woman on the footpath. Then he called a rickshaw and took
the woman to the nearby hospital. There the doctors at once examined the old woman. The
doctors assured the boy that the condition of the woman was not serious and after first aid the old
woman regained her sense. Now Ahsanullah inquired of her whereabouts. The woman told him
that she had come to this town from a nearby village. She came here to beg. But having heard a
very loud sound of truck-horn, she was at a loss. And at one point, she lost her sense. After
hearing this, the boy took the woman to his house. He gave her good foods to eat. His mother also
gave the woman some old clothes. On the boy’s request, his mother also gave the woman some
money to go back to the village. And the woman prayed much for Ahsanullah and went back to her
village happily.
16. A tragic accident
I read about road accidents in newspaper every day as accidents are a common sight in big cities.
Most of the accidents occur because of the rash and careless driving. They bring agony to our
mind and also to the relatives of victims, but till the day I had not seen an accident with my own
eyes. By God what a terrible sight it was! It was in the short hour of one evening I was going along
Mirpur Road to buy a pen for my examination which was going to commence next week. At the
crossing I was waiting for the traffic to clear off so that I could safely cross the road. A bus was
also running along the road and it was trying to overtake a private car a head of it. All of a sudden
driver lost the control of steering and rammed against a horse carriage. The driver of the hackney
carriage fell down and the bus crushed him. The passengers in the hackney carriage escaped
death with some injuries. The horse was also badly wounded and it was looking for his master.
The injured were rushed immediately to a nearby hospital. People gathered at the scene of
accident. Some people were showing sympathy for the victim, some were abusing the bus driver
and some were advising others to be very careful while on a road. I left the scene with a sorrowful
heart for the driver of the carriage who unfortunately lost his life in that accident. Now everybody
says what the remedy is. Traffic rules should be followed strictly and we should follow our lane
while on the road. The children should be given traffic rules education at school level. We should
be careful while walking along or crossing the roads. An accident is synonymous to end of life.
Shouldn’t this end now?

17. A Fox without a Tail
Once, a fox was quietly crossing a field. But alas, suddenly he got trapped. Then he tried hard to
come out of the trap. It was only after a tough struggle that she got free. But his tail got cut off. He
was ashamed of his loss. “How ugly I shall look!” moaned the fox, “The other foxes will laugh at
me!” Thinking hard, the fox came up with a plan to save himself from being laughed at. For a long
time he kept away from the other Foxes, for he knew well enough that they would all make fun of
him and crack jokes and laugh behind his back. But it was hard for him to live alone, and at last he
thought of a plan that would perhaps help him out of his trouble. He called a meeting of all the
Foxes, saying that he had something of great importance to tell the tribe. When they were all
gathered together, the Fox without a Tail got up and made a long speech about those Foxes who
had come to harm because of their tails. He said that men hunt Foxes simply for their tails, which
they cut off as prizes of the hunt. With such proof of the danger and uselessness of having a tail,
said Master Fox, he would advise every Fox to cut it off, if he valued life and safety. When he had
finished talking, an old Fox arose, and said, smiling: “Master Fox, kindly turn around for a moment,
and you shall have your answer.” When the poor Fox without a Tail turned around, they laughed
aloud and replied, “You used to say that tails looked very fine when your own was all right. Now
that you have lost yours, you want us to lose ours too.”
18. Dividing the Bread
Once there were two rets who were very foolish and unclear with each other. One day they found
a piece of bread and they could not agree on how to divide it. Each rat wanted to get a larger
piece than the other. Gradually, they argued and argued. After sometimes one of them realized
about their fault and then he proposed the other to go and see their friend Mr. Monkey who would
solve their problems. So, they went to him and told him to divide the bread. The monkey was very
wise and clever. So, he easily understood the matter and replied that it was very difficult to divide
the bread into equal halves. Then he broke the bread into two pieces and put them on his scales.
When one piece was proved bigger he took a bite out of the bigger piece to make it equal to the
small one. But his bite was not accurate and then the bigger piece became smaller. Thus, he was
taking bites one after another to make them equal and each time he failed. In this way, the bread
became very small and then the rats could understand his trick. So, they wanted to get back the
rest of the bread and agreed themselves to solve the matter. But Mr. Monkey refused to do so. He
demanded the rest of the bread as his wage because he had to give labor to do the job. Saying
so, he ate up the bread. At last, the rats realized that everyone has to solve their own problem by
compromising between themselves.

21. Dividing of the Bread between Two Cats
Once there lived two cats in a house. One day they stole a piece of bread form their neighboring
house. But the problem arose how to divide it because each of the cats wanted the larger part.
When they failed to reach any conclusion, they went to a monkey who is considered to be the
wisest of all the animals. They requested the monkey to divide the bread equally. The monkey
brought a pair of scales. He torn out the bread into two pieces and put them on the scales. He told
the cats that one piece was clearly heavier than the other. So, he bit off a part of the bigger piece.
As a result the other piece became heavier. Then the monkey took a part form the heavier piece
and put it on the scales. The monkey continued doing the same thing again and again until there
remained only one piece of bread. Now, the cats told the monkey to return that piece to them.
They said that they themselves would divide the bread equally. But the monkey said that he toiled
much to divide the bread equally. So he wanted it as his fee. Saying so the monkey ate up that
piece also. The cat left the place in a very sad mood but the incident made them wise also.
22. An ant and a dove
On a hot day of summer, an ant was searching for some water. After walking around for some
time, she came near the river. To drink the water, she climbed up on a small rock. While trying to
drink a water, she slipped and fell into the river.
There was a dove sitting on a branch of a tree who saw an ant falling into the river. The dove
quickly plucked a leaf and dropped it into the river near the struggling ant. The ant moved towards
the leaf and climbed up onto it. Soon, the leaf drifted to dry ground, and the ant jumped out. She
looked up to the tree and thanked the dove.
Later, the same day, a bird catcher nearby was about to throw his net over the dove hoping to trap
it. An ant saw him and guessed what he was about to do. The dove was resting and he had no
idea about the bird catcher. An ant quickly bit him on the foot. Feeling the pain, the bird catcher
dropped his net and let out a light scream. The dove noticed it and quickly flew away.
Moral: If you do good, good will come to you. One good turn deserves another.

decide upon the best way to get rid of this perpetual annoyance. Many plans were discussed and
rejected. At last a young mouse got up and proposed that a bell should be hung around the cat’s
neck so that they might always know in advance when she would be coming and thus be able to
escape her. This proposal was greeted with great applause and approved immediately by
everyone at the meeting. Thereafter, an old mouse, who had sat in silence during the entire

children for exploiting the stranger.

sin?”“Sir, I know it.” the thief. Said weeping “But I can’t but steal. My children have been going on
without food for days together. I could not give them any food. I tried my best to get work or earn
money in honest way but I got no work. I couldn’t see my children die of starvation before my
eyes. Thus, I took the course. Please let me go this time.” At his entreaty Moshin was moved to
Page | 74
pity and said, “I‘ll set you free and I’ll give you money too but on one condition.” “What‘s the
condition?” then asked Mohsin very quickly. “Please tell me it. I’ll do whatever you ask me to do. “
“Better die of starvation than steal,” said Moshin to the thief. “It is an evil way of life. You must give
it up. You must promise me that you will never steal in future but live an honest life. Then I’ll set
you free and give money to start a shop. If you work honestly, you can earn money to buy food for
you and the members of your family.” The thief was struck with wonder and said, “Oh noble sir,
I’ve no words to express my gratitude, may Allah bless you.” Taking the money the thief went
home and started a shop. He became an honest business man. From that day he gives up
stealing.

Sheikh Saadi was a great poet in Iran. He used to lead a very simple life. Once on his way for a
night to the court of the king of Iran, he took shelter in a noble man’s house for a night. He was
then in very simple dress. The noble man could not recognize him and the treatment he received
offended him. But he did not say anything to him. The next day Sheikh Saadi went to the court of
the king and was received with honor. He stayed there for a few days. He composed some
beautiful poems and entertained the king and his courtiers. He received rich gifts from the king. He
put on a very rich and ornamented dress. Thus he was returning to his village. On his way he
again visited that noble man’s house. This time, the rich man was surprised to see Sheikh Saadi in
a rich ornamental dress. He was delighted to see the change in Sheikh Saadi and treated him with
the best of the foods and comfort. While eating, he was surprised to see the rich delicious foods
and understood the rich man’s attitude. Sheikh Saadi then instead of eating the foods started
putting them into the pockets of his rich cloth. This surprised the rich man, “Why are you putting
the foods into the pockets of your dress?” said the rich man. “I am putting them into the pockets of
my dress because these foods are meant for my dress, not for me,” said Saadi. The rich man
realized his earlier folly and became ashamed.

to his place. The palace of the king was too far away from his home. So, he started for the king’s
palace a day ago. On the way, when it was about to dark, he took shelter in the house of a
nobleman. The nobleman could not recognize him and treated him as an ordinary man. At that
time he was simple in his dress. He did not disclose his real identity. The nobleman and his
servants did not show much honour and hospitality to him for his ordinary dress. They entertained
him with very poor food. In the morning the poet left the rich man's house. He reached the king’s
palace. The king showed much honour to him and gifted some beautiful dresses.
A few days later, on his way back home he took shelter again in the same house. This time he
was in gorgeous dress offered by the king. The nobleman received him very cordially and
entertained him with rich and delicious food. Saadi began to put the food in his pocket. The house
owner became surprised and asked the poet about his mysterious behaviour. The poet replied
that his dress deserved the food as he had been treated in very poor way from this house a few
days ago. The nobleman could realize his fault and got ashamed for his mistreat. He also begged
pardon to the poet.

arose and called his men together. He told them of his plans, and sent them out with hopeful
messages to cheer the discouraged people. Soon there was an army of brave men around him. A
seventh battle was fought, and this time the King of England was forced to retreat back to his own
country.

accepted the invitation and reached the fox's place at sunset. The fox had prepared soup for his
mate. But as we all know that foxes are cunning by nature, he served the soup in flat dishes. So,
he himself lapped the crane's share with his tongue enjoying its relish a lot. But the crane could
not enjoy it at all with his long beak and had to get back home hungry. The shrewd fox felt
extremely amused. After few days, the crane invited the fox to dine in with him. The fox reached
his place well in time. The crane gave him a warm welcome and served the soup in a jug with a
long and narrow neck. So, the crane enjoyed the soup with great relish using his long beak. The
fox's mouth couldn't reach the soup through the narrow neck of the jug. He had to return home
hungry. Now he realized that he had been repaid for his behaviour with the crane.
38. An Ant and a Grasshopper
Once there lived two friends named Mr. Grasshopper and Mr. Ant. But they were different by
nature to each other. Mr. Ant was very hardworking. It was a cold winter day when Mr. Ant was
looking at his winter stores cheerfully. Just at that time a grasshopper came and said, "I am
hungry, please save my life." So the grasshopper requested the ant to save his life from starvation
by giving him some food. The Ant asked him, “ What did you do during summer?” The
grasshopper replied, “ I spent the whole summer singing . The ant said, "How could you spend the
whole summer without doing anything? Didn't you think that if you didn't work, you would have to
starve?" The grasshopper said, "l am very sorry for wasting my time and now I can realize what a
blunder I made.” But the Ant said, "Poor grasshopper, it is true we have enough for ourselves but
we are not in a position to help you." Moreover, he advised the grasshopper to dance in winter
since he sang in summer.
39. The Fox and the crocodile
Once, a crocodile wanted her children to be educated. So she went to a fox and asked him to
educate her children. The fox willingly agreed. The crocodile became happy to depend on the fox
because it looked very reliable. So it left its seven children with the fox and returned home. By this
time there occurred a feminine in the country. The fox went in search of food but it found no food
outside. Days passed by and the fox was on the verge of death. At last, it decided to eat the
children of crocodile one a day. After a few days, the crocodile came back to see whether the
children were getting educated or not. But by this time the cunning fox had already eaten up six
out of seven children of the crocodile. So to evade the truth the fox brought out the only child of
the crocodile and showed it that this was the first one. Then he again went into the hole and
brought out the same one and told the crocodile that it was the second. In this way, it showed the
crocodile the same crocodile child to its mother seven times and beguiled it by giving it an
impression that all the seven children were hale and hearty. On the next day, the crocodile mother
came to meet the children again.
But by this time the cunning fox had eaten up the remaining one and fled away. Now the crocodile
understood the point and wept and went away.

sweat in fear. He could not move. The lion growled again. The slave realized a pain in the voice of
the lion. He turned back and looked at the lion. He saw that the lion has a thorn in its paw. The lion
was looking at him with strange eyes. The slave took courage and went near the lion. The lion did
not change its expression. Slowly, the slave moved near and pulled the thorn out of his paw. The
lion roared and the slave was about to run. Suddenly, the lion stood up and went out of the cave
without hurting the slave. The lion turned on the opening of the cave and looked at the slave with
thankful eyes and went away. After a few days, the soldiers of the king captured the slave and
brought him back to the king. The king was furious in anger. He wanted to punish the slave for his
disobedience. He ordered his guards to put the slave before a hungry lion. As they threw the slave
before the lion, the lion rushed at him. But as it came near, it moved its tail and began to lick the
hands of the slave. The slave also recognized the lion. It was the same lion he met in the forest.
The king was puzzled. He asked the slave the reason for the strange behavior of the lion with him.
The slave told the king the whole story. The king realized that an animal can be a friend through
kindness. He understood the power of kindness. He realized that he could win the people with
kindness. He set the lion and the slave free. He became kind and hence a darling king in the eyes
of his people.
41. The turtle (tortoise) and the foolish fox

forest. In the forest, there lived a cunning yet dumb fox. Everybody was taking a nap after they had
lunch. M fox was very hungry as he didn't have any- thing. He could not find any prey for him to

the water, my shell will soften and then you can happily eat me”. The fox was very foolish. So he
believed the tortoise and said “Okay”. He kicked the tortoise into the water. The tortoise slipped
away from the fox and swam to safety Thus, he was saved. The fox was so stupid he did not even
realize he was getting fooled by the tortoise. The tortoise laughed. "Ha! Ha! Ha!

43. A just ruler and a brave Kazi (Quazi)
Gias Uddin Azam Shah was a great ruler of Bengal. He was very kind and just. He was fond of
hunting. One day he went on hunting at a nearby jungle. He aimed at a fawn but his arrow missed
its target and pierced a boy who was standing at the jungle. The boy instantly died. Unfortunately,
the boy was the only son of a widow. He was her only hopes and aspiration.
The sudden and premature death of her on by a powerful ruler shocked her much. She could not
control her mind because she had lost her last belonging. With great grief in her mind, she went to
the Quazi and complained against the ruler. She also prayed for justice. The Quazi was a strict
judge of that time. He summoned the ruler to appear before him. All the well-wishers and the staff
of the Quazi were surprised to hear that and requested him to change his decision. But the Quazi
was determined to ensure justice. However, Gias Uddin Azam Shah appeared before the court of
the Quazi and admitted his guilt. The Quazi ordered him to pay full compensation to the widow.
Gias Uddin Azam Shah instantly carried out the Quazi’s order and paid the fine. While the ruler
was leaving the court, he drew his sword and said to the Quazi, “If you failed to carry out your
duties as a judge out of fear of me, I would have punished you with this sword.” Then the Quazi
showed a can to the ruler and said, “If you disobeyed my verdict. I would punish you with my
cane.” The ruler was happy to hear such an answer from the Quazi. Actually, the judiciary of then
Bengal was free and fair and the rulers were also just and noble.
44. The Scholar And The Boatman Story
Page | 77
The Scholar And The Boatman: There was a poor boatman in a village. He was illiterate. He used
to row boat from morning till evening only to meet his both ends. There was no meaning of
knowledge to him. It was the month of Baishakh. A scholar got into his boat. He was enjoying his
journey very much because the weather was very fine. It was almost dark. He was gossiping with
the boatman. “Did you have any knowledge about the creation of the universe?” the scholar
asked the boatman. “No,” replied the boatman. The scholar got astonished and told him, “Without
the knowledge of astronomy half of your life is spoiled The boatman was sad and thought of the
uselessness of his life. He again asked the boatman, “Do you know about the history of human
civilization? The reply of the boatman was the same as before. This time the scholar told the
boatman that he had already spoilt three -fourths of his life and he could not come to any use to
the society. The boatman kept silent and went on a rowing boat in a sad mood. Suddenly, the
weather became gusty. The sky was overcast with clouds. There was darkness all around. There
was also heavy showers with lightning. The boat was about to capsize. The scholar was trembling
with fear, But the boatman was very quiet because he was used to this weather. He asked the
scholar. “Sir, do you know how to swim?’ The scholar replied, crying, “No”. “Now the boatman
said, Alas! Your life is totally spoilt. Pray to God for your safety.”
45. Straggle of Hellen Keller
When we are well and strong, we tend to forget the many people who do not enjoy the good health
that we do. Yet the lives of many people who are afflicted are in example to all of us. One of the
most famous people in the modern world the American lady, Miss Hellen Keller. She was born in
Alabama in the year 1880 and she was a happy, ‘healthy little Toaby and even at the age of six
months she could speak simple words. But when she was twelve months old, she was afflicted with
a strange illness. For a time it seemed that she might die, but she recovered. Then it was found that
she was blind and deaf. This was a terrible double affliction. To lose one of the senses of sight or
hearing is bad enough, but to lose both is a great calamity. She had a most distinguished career at
college and travelled all over the world because of her special position. She was an honored visitor
in every country. She is an outstanding example of how treat difficulties can be overcome if only
there is sufficient determination. The life of Helen Keller has made easier the task of children who
are blind and deaf. They are taught now by methods which were proved successful in the case of
Helen Keller.
46. Look Before You Leap/A Foolish Crocodile
Once a crocodile wanted her four children to be educated. So she went to a fox and asked him to
educate her children. The fox willingly agreed to do so. Being satisfied with the speech of the fox,
the crocodile left her children to the fox. But the fox was cunning by nature and he was fond of eating
crocodile’s kids. So, he ate one of them and kept the other three. After a week the crocodile came
to the fox to meet her sweet kids and inquired about her children. The fox assured that the kids were
learning very swiftly and they were meritorious too. Being satisfied with the speech of the fox, the
crocodile again left the place. In the meantime the cunning fox again ate one of them. The crocodile
again came to the fox and the fox showed one kid twice making a total of four. The crocodile became
satisfied and went away.
The next week the crocodile again came to see her kids. Now only one kid was left. The fox followed
the same trick before the crocodile and told her that their education would be complete by the
following week. Now then the fox ate up the remaining kid and deserted the place forever. After a
week the crocodile came with pleasant mind to take away her children. But alas! She found nobody
in the jungle. She searched her sweet children here and there but found none. Finally, she
understood the matter and left the place with profound grief.
47. He prayeth best, who loveth best
The line "He prayeth best, who loveth best" is the moral the Mariner learns from his supernatural
journey. It echoes the theology of Augustine in Confessions, which Samuel Taylor Coleridge was
very likely intentionally referencing in writing this poem. (Coleridge was a religious man very
concerned with theology, even changing denominations of Christianity a few times in his life. An
exploration of his collected notes also shows he was continuously reflecting upon his evolving
belief system.) The line referenced in the question makes more sense if it is read in its completed
thought. The Mariner says: He prayeth best, who loveth best, all things both great and small;
Page | 78
Together, these lines make sense of the plot of the narrative while echoing Augustine's theological
belief about the importance of loving all of God's creatures equally, even the lowest of them.
48. Two Rats and the Monkey
One day two rats stole a piece of bread. They tried to divide it into two equal parts but failed. Because
each rat wanted the larger part of the bread. They even fought for that. Lastly, they agreed to put up
their problem to the monkey who was considered the wisest animal in the forest. They went to the
monkey to divide the bread piece properly. The cunning monkey divided the piece in such a way
that it is not equally divided. Then he cut a small part of a piece and ate that instantly which is larger
than the other. Again, the dishes of the scale was unequal and the monkey ate another small part
of the larger portion. He continued this method and the bread piece became smaller gradually. The
rats understood the monkey's crafty trick and ordered the monkey to stop that. The monkey stopped
his deception but claimed the rest of the bread as his charge.
49. A Foolish Crow and a Cunning Fox
Once, a fox was feeling very hungry. He roamed here and there in search of food but could not
find anything to eat. After searching food in different places he became tired. So, to take rest it sat
under a tree. When the fox looked up, he saw, to his great joy, a crow sitting on one of the
branches of the tree. He was holding a piece of meat in his beak. On seeing this, his mouth began
to water and started thinking about the piece of meat. At last he hit upon a plan to get the piece of
meat from the crow. He got up and said to crow, “Good morning I am glad to meet you. How
handsome you look! What a nice beak you have! But if you could sing so sweet as you are
beautiful, you could win for yourself the title of the ‘Queen of the birds’.” The foolish crow was
taken in by the oily talk of the fox. He felt happy. He at once opened his beak to sing. As he gave
out a loud caw in his cracked voice, the piece of meat fell down on the ground. The fox picked it up
and ate it up at once. The poor crow had to repent on his foolishness.

humble.I am defeated by youAs long as you live please stay in my court and do good to my
subjects.You are free to do anything you like for the welfare of my kingdom.”
51. THE CLEVER ASTROLOGER

of the kingdom.A good astrologer happened to stop at his capital on his way to Beneras.The king
called on him to know his future and the astrologer said something unpleasant.At this the king got
furious and condemned him to death saying,”Men like you should not live to spoil the peace of the
world.”But another thought crossed his mind before the astrologer was removed for execution.”How
long would you live?”asked the king.This astrologer mused for a while for some way of escape,as he
was sure the king would prove him a liar putting him to death then there,if he would live longer than
that day.With ready wit he said,’’The stars declare that I shall die only a week before your
majesty.So,good-bye.I shall wait to receive your Majesty where you have been sending me”.At this the
king turned pale as dead and shouted,”Drive this wrech away,let him not come again.”

1. A Village Fair
Village fairs are very common in Bangladesh. In almost all parts of the country fairs are held and
thousands of people visit these fairs. They are held generally on the occasion of some religious
festivals. The site of the fair is generally a sacred place. Many small fairs are held on various
occasions. The special features of the village fairs in Bangladesh are that they fulfill the needs of
the rural people. In almost each fair the cattle market is a necessary feature. In towns there are
permanent markets. Hence, people do not feel the want of anything. They purchase their articles of
daily need in the regular market. But in villages many things are not found in the regular markets.
Hence they have to depend for those things on the fair. The purchase and sale of cattle are the
greatest towns visit the fairs. In olden days, when there were no good roads connecting villages with
towns and cities, these fairs were very useful. Now-a-days, the importance of village fairs has been
Page | 80
very much reduced. Now the fair is more a diversion than a necessity. Now-a-days, fairs provide a
change from the monotony of everyday life. People go there for sight-seeing and for enjoying the
company of men.
In a Village fair, people come from parts to sell their various articles. Temporarily shops are erected.
They are arranged in various rows. Generally, shops of one kind are arranged in one row. On one
side there are shops of confectioners. On the other, there are shops of iron utensils. In a third row
there are shops of steel trunks. Then there are shops of carpets, blankets, toys, shoes, books,
wooden articles, utensils, handloom cloths, medicine, etc. Besides shops, there are hawkers who
move about up and down the fair and sell their own little products. They sell flutes, paper-umbrellas
and various other kinds of toys which especially attractive to the children.
In a fair, there is a very brisk activity everywhere. Purchase and sale of articles take place and there
is almost always a great rush.It often serves as a meeting place for people living far away from one
another. People very often come across their friends and relatives living far away whom they had
no chance of seeing otherwise. The fair is a great boon to the traders. The traders very easily
dispose of defective articles in a fair. In the fair, besides shops, there are some side attractions.
Theaters, magic shows, swings, drama parties, etc. provide a good deal of fun to the visitors.
The fairs in India has got one special utility. It is a good place for advertisement and propaganda.
Since people from different places assemble at the fair, the news of any new product or invention
spreads far and wide very easily. The village fair is really a good thing because it provides diversion
and amusement and promotes trade and industry.
2. Fruits of Bangladesh
Bangladesh is the country of various types of fruits. Different types of fruits grow in different seasons
all over the country. Fruits are of different kinds, colours, sizes and taste. Some are big and some
are small. Some taste sweet and some sour. Mango is the king of all fruits in Bangladesh. There are
many kinds of mangoes. They are langra, fazli, gopalbhog, mohonbhog etc. Mango grows cc in
Rajshahi, Dinajpur and Bogra. Jackfruit is the biggest fruit in our country. It is delicious and sweet.
It grows largely in Chittagong, Sylhet and in the highland of Dhaka, Narsingdi and Mymensing.
Jackfruit is our national fruit. Banana is another popular fruit. It grows everywhere in our country all
the year round. As the poor working people take their bun along with banana during lunch, it may
be called the food of the poor. It is sweet and beautiful. Champa, Sabri, Amritsagar etc. are famous
bananas. Palm is a common fruit in Bangladesh. It grows everywhere in plenty. Its water is a sweet
drink. Its kernel is a tasty food. It is good for liver.
Papaya is another good fruit. When ripe, papaya looks yellow. Green papaya is also eaten as a
vegetable. There are many other fruits in Bangladesh. Pineapple is a good fruit of rainy season.
Some pineapples taste sweet, some sour. Lychee is a small and sweet fruit. Although lychee grows
everywhere in Bangladesh, it grows abundantly in Rajshahi. Among other fruits, black berry, date,
melon, guava, and wood-apple are very well known. There are some fruits that taste sour. Tamarind,
star fruit and lemon are sour fruits. Fruits are useful in many ways. Fruits satisfy our demands for
different vitamins. Many families in Bangladesh earn a lot by growing and selling different kinds of
fruits. Fruits grow abundantly in Bangladesh but the advent of many kinds new fruits from foreign
countries are threatening a number of local fruits. Government should take steps to save all sorts
local fruits from extinction.
3. Newspaper
A newspaper is a paper that gives us news of all that happens home and abroad. It gives us news
of day to day happenings of the different parts of the world. It is one of the blessings of the modern
civilization. We cannot think of modern life without the newspaper. Man is curious by nature. He
wants to know about various events of the world. The newspaper is the best medium to satisfy this
curiosity.
The first newspaper was published in China. Venice of Italy was the first place where the first
newspaper saw the light of the day in Europe. During the reign of Elizabeth it was published in
England. The “Indian Gazette” published in 1774 was the first newspaper in the sub-continent. “The
Samachar Darpan” brought out by the Missionaries of Sree Rampur was the first Bengali
newspaper.
There are various kinds of newspapers in the world. They are dailies, weeklies, monthlies,
fortnightlies, and so on. The daily newspaper carries the various kinds of news and views of the
Page | 81
daily affairs of the respective country along with the whole world. So the daily newspaper is popular
with all sections of people. Other kinds of newspapers are known as periodicals and magazines.
The contain articles, stories, literatures, poems and some other items.
In Bangladesh the Nayadiganta, the Ittefaq, the Amardesh, the Inquilab etc are the important Bengali
dailies. The Bangladesh Time and the Bangladesh Observer are prominent English dailies. The
Robber, the Bitchitra, the Bartaman Dianka, the Chaya Chhanda etc are the names of weekly
magazines. The Chitta Bangla and the Ananda Bichitra are fortnightly and monthly magazine
respectively.
Newspaper is very useful to all sections of people. It tells us what is happening at home and abroad.
It is said that, Newspapers 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.
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".
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.
4. My Favorite Poet
Kazi Nazrul Islam, our national poet, is my favorite poet. He is one of the most outstanding poets of
the indo-Pakistan-sub continent. He is the poet of my heart. I am fully one with him when he says,
“I belong to all nations, all times.” Nazrul was born in 1899 in the village of Churulia in West Bengal.
He lost his father early in his life and had to struggle hard against poverty. He had to earn his
livelihood since he was a little boy. For this, he was known as ‘Dukhu Mia’ to the people. Nazrul got
his boyhood education in his village Maktab. He was restless from his boyhood. His restless spirit
drew him to move from one place to another. His restless spirit drew him to move from one place to
another. He could not confine himself to the routine-bound day-to-day work in the class. From his
early life, he had an indomitable spirit to foam bout the world and see, know and explore what was
unseen, unknown and unexplored.They threw him into the jail, but they could not dominate his
undaunted spirit. He called upon his fellow prisoners to rise up and revolt,
“Kick and break of the prison lock. Set fire on all the prison cells,
Set fire and root out everything.”
Nazrul Islam was one of the greatest patriots of the world. He strained his time, money and energy
for the cause of freedom. He wielded his mighty pen against the atrocities of the ruling class. Nazrul
Islam wrote an overwhelming number of poems and prose pieces. The number of his songs
exceeded even that of Rabindranath Tagore. Bidrohi, Badan hare, Sarbohara, Chakrobak, Catun
Chand, Fanimansha, Rickter Bedan, Sesh Shaogat etc… Are his most outstanding works. All his
works are full of spirits and rebellions. He was put in the jail for writing a fiery anti-government. A
poem called ‘Agni-Bina.’ But he cared little for all that. No oppression or pangs could ever dominate
his indomitable spirit. He went on composing verses and prose pieces one after another even when
he was confined in the jail.
He was a poet of youth with a rebel soul in him. His writings are essentially suited for the platform.
They are full of jerks and jumps, full of vigor and vitality. He was not only a poet but also a great
singer. He is the only poet of Bengal who took part in war. He showed a striking newness in his
Page | 82
verse, voice and ideas. My heart fills with a world of joy, hope and aspirations when I heart fills with
a world of joy, hope and aspirations when I read his poems. He was not a blind imitator of
Rabindranath Tagore. He rose to the zenith of his reputation by means of his originality.
Rabindranath Tagore admitted his extraordinary genius and made him his successor of literature
art and culture. He was attacked with a protracted disease and suffered for a pretty long time and
lost his mental balance. At last, he breathed his last on the 29th August, 1976. He now prays to
almighty for the salvation of his departed soul. Let us learn a great lesson from his colorful life,
5. Discipline
Discipline is the training of the mind in order to make it accept the rules and orders of a higher
authority. It is a lesson that we can learn from the way the universe runs. Nature herself presents
before us this valuable lesson.
The word discipline is derived from the Latin word’ ‘discipulus’ which means to learn. Discipline is
the trait by which one learns to control one’s feelings, emotions and behavior. It is the ability for self-
control and self-direction.
All the heavenly bodies follow definite rules in moving around. The seasons come and go in definite
patterns. A slight shift or indiscipline will cause confusions in this well- planned natural system.
Similarly, discipline in our individual lives is the top most requirement of our society. Discipline
enables us to think maturely, act maturely and to take decisions responsibly. It makes us self-
propelled, self- controlled and self-guiding persons. It makes us responsible persons and principled
individuals.
Discipline is one of the essential qualities required for social living. Without it, life in society becomes
chaotic and miserable. Without discipline there can be no law and order. Without discipline society
becomes a devil’s paradise, where, ‘might determines what is right’ and power and riches determine
who is right and who is not.Today, a quick look around us will show how our society has come into
the grips of chaos and confusions everywhere. Lack of discipline in our lives is a primary cause of
all these.
Discipline is the pre-requisite for growth and development. The astounding Japanese growth and
progress, after the second World war, when their nation was reduced to ashes, has been attributed
to the strict discipline which the Japanese people possessed and utilised. Every profession, every
service: politics, industry, economy, government, etc., need discipline. Discipline is often associated
with ‘men in uniform. It is the hallmark of soldiers.This is one lesson which has to be in imbibed at a
very young age. The home is the first institution where the value of discipline can be learnt and the
parents are their first guides.
And then it is the responsibility of the teachers to inculcate in them the value of discipline. Today’s
students are tomorrow’s leaders. Discipline will teach them the virtues of self-control, obedience,
the capacity for self-sacrifice and single minded devotion to duty.
It is clear therefore, that discipline is not merely a good virtue which adds colour and charm to the
personality. It is an essential quality of life required by every one of us. Discipline alone can lead our
society forward and make our social, professional and family life, a successful one.

imagination. The invention of such machines, that save our time and drudgery, is a great blessing
for mankind.
The greatest blessings of science are its inventions in the field of medicine and surgery. Human pain
and treatment of different types of diseases that don’t have any treatment available in the early times
that have now become very easy and the human life survival rate is increased. X-Ray and body
scanning machines are the window through which we can get a peep into the inside of our body. It
is expected that atomic energy, when used for peaceful purpose on a large scale, would transform
human life.
The invention of nuclear energy is a marvelous wonder of modern science. Now man can make
atom Bomb, Hydrogen Bomb, Neutron Bomb, Missiles etc. with the help of this energy. Man may
use this power either in destructive or constructive works.
Space travel is the most wonderful success of modern science. Landing on a moon was just an
imagination of a man few years back. But by the help of modern science man has also done this
impossible work. So it is possible now to turn man’s imagination into reality.
Science has created wonders in the field of communication. Telephone, telex, fax, internet,
networking, cell phones, laptops, gps systems, E-mail, VSATs, wireless, telegrams are great
wonders. They have brought the world closer to us. We can send news from one corner of the world
to other within a single moment.
In spite of Science as a blessing in our daily life, but on the other hand it is also very dangerous
because science has invented very dangerous weapons that can kill humanity very easily. Another
disadvantage of science is the misuse of mass media for propaganda.
Science has metamorphosed the mode of our daily life. Science has stepped up the speed of life; it
has widened the range of our occupations, extended all of the limits of our curiosity, it has increased
the ways of utilizing our leisure ; it has given us comforts and facilities undreamt of by our forefathers.
7. TV and its uses and abuses
Television is one of the wonders of modern science. Today we cannot even do a single day without
the dependence of television. Television has influenced the every sector of our life. Now, it has
become such kind of modern instrument that has made our life easy, comfortable, modern and
meaningful.
It is a popular means of mass communication. It provides both sound and picture at the same time.
It is a great source of entertainment. It has linked up the distant parts of the world. We cannot do a
single day without it.
English scientist named John Bayard invented television in 1926. Then it was not so improved. But
later, scientists have gradually developed it. Now it is very modern, cheap and easy to operate.
The importance of television beggars description. It is a great source of recreation. Millions of people
of all over the world watch television daily for entertainment, news and views, gathering knowledge,
knowing information etc. Nowadays it is very popular to all classes of people. Children, boys, young,
old people fond of watching television. We enjoy dramas, songs, cultural programmes on television.
Television removes our monotony of daily works. We can know and see what is happening in the
world though television.
Television helps us in our studies. Sometimes, television is used in distance learning. In such
process, we can learn our lessons staying home. We can also enjoy debate that is very important.
Television has made the world smaller. Television has conquered time and distance. Now we need
not go to stadium to enjoy game. Before sitting television set, we can enjoy it. Even poor people
enjoy the most exciting world cup football and cricket event on television. Besides, we get familiar
with the customs and traditions of other countries through television. We can observe the social,
political, cultural and economic situation of the world through television.
In spite of having a lot of merits, television has some demerits too. Students often waste valuable
time before sitting television set. Even, they do not go to play to enjoy television programme. As a
result, they do not get good health. Besides, some vulgar programmes telecast on television hamper
the moral character of the younger.
In the end, it can be said that though television has some bad sides, it is very powerful mass media.
It gives us not only recreation but also conveys the pictures of our sorrows and sufferings to the
concerned authority.
8. The Season I like Best/The spring in Bangladesh
Page | 84
Spring is called the king of all seasons. It is the best, the loveliest and the most charming of all
seasons. It is my favourite season. Indeed, it is favourite to all. This is the season that has inspired
so many poets to write lyrical poems. In the cycle of seasons spring occupies an exalted position. It
is rich in colour, beauty, music and fragrance. Though winter in Bangladesh is not so severe as that
in western countries, it presents somewhat dull and dreary aspect. In summer the scorching sun,
hot days and sweltering nights make life disagreeable. The damp and humidity of the rainy season
add greatly to our discomfort. Spring has none of the in conveniences of these seasons. Coming
after winter it captivates the hearts of people all at once and when summer follows people bewails
its passing away. With the advent of spring, Nature puts on a gay and lovely appearance. Every
object of Nature becomes fresh. Trees put forth new leaves. Flowers bloom forth in thousands. They
are of all colours. Some of them are sweet-smelling, some have no smell, but all are beautiful. The
fine display of colours, they present is especially fascinating. Flowers attract bees and butterflies.
Bees hum and fly from flower to flower in search of honey. The colourful wings of the butterflies
present no less charming a sight. As soon as spring sets in, a gentle breeze from the south begins
to blow. It spreads the sweet smell of flowers and makes the air balmy and fragrant. It passes
through the fresh leaves and produces a sweet rustling sound in the air. To this music is added the
sweet twitter of the birds. What a great variety of them! Very few claim to know the names of all of
them, but we know them all by sight. The wandering otes of the cuckoo go direct to the heart. These
charming sights and sounds exercise a great influence on the people of Bangladesh. Love of beauty
is an inherent virtue; whatever one is aware of it or not, beautiful things go on doing their work on
human mind. The people of Bangladesh have a distinctive nature. Much of this distinction must have
come from the tender natural beauties that surround them. It is surely the spring that offers the
largest number of charming sights and sounds and makes people forget the bleak winter days.
But this season is very elusive in the sense that it comes and goes almost imperceptivity. Its duration
is so short that it disappears before we have just begun to realize its charms. It does not oppress
our mind with any lingering monotony. This shortness of its duration is, perhaps, one of the reasons
why people like it.
9. Importance of Physical exercise
Physical exercise means the regular movement of the limbs of our body according to rules. It keeps
our body healthy, strong and active and mind jolly for any work. It is very useful to us for the
improvement of our health and to lead a happy life.
There are different kinds of physical exercises. They are walking , running , swimming , racing ,
riding, gymnastics and many kinds of indoor and outdoor games and sports . But all kinds of physical
exercises are not suitable for all people. Walking is the best exercise for all in all circumstances.
Walking in the morning refreshes our body and mind. Swimming and walking are the best and
easiest exercises for people of all ages . Racing, cycling , riding , gymnastics and many kinds of
indoor and outdoor games and sports offer ample opportunity for the exercise of our body . The
young , students and members of well organized clubs are fit for these kinds of exercises .
Physical exercise is the precondition of a sound health and sound mind . It builds up our body as
well as our personality. It keeps us physically fit , tension free, cheerful, strong and active . It
improves our power of digestion and blood circulation. It teaches us unity, obedience , discipline
and punctuality .
There are many people who do not take physical exercise. They fall a victim to many diseases. Life
becomes dull to them.
We should take physical exercise in right time. After meal no exercise should be taken . Morning
and evening are the best time for physical exercise. But we should not take over exercise . It is very
bad for our health.
We can build up a sound health and sound mind through physical exercise. We all should take
regular physical exercise to lead a healthier and happier life. It is also a source of health, wealth and
wisdom.
10. Importance of Reading Newspaper
Man is naturally curious to know about various events of the world. The newspaper is the best
medium to satisfy this curiosity. It is a paper the carries news to us. It tells us what is happening at
home and abroad. It is the store-house of knowledge and information. The newspaper was first
published in China” the Indian Gazette” published in 1774 was the printed newspaper of this sub-
Page | 85
continent. The first bangle newspaper was the” Samachar Darpan.” There are many kinds of
newspapers. They are dailies, weeklies, monthlies, quarterlies, pictorials etc. The daily newspapers,
they are dailies, weeklies, monthlies, quarterlies, pictorials etc. The daily newspapers contain the
news of daily affairs of home and abroad. The daily Ittafuq, the Janakantha, Daily Inqilab, the
Jugantor, the Prothome-Alo, the Bangladesh Observer and the Bangladesh times are the main daily
newspapers in Bangladesh. The Bichitra, the Bartman Dinkal, and the Chaya Chnda are the main
weekly magazines. Newspaper plays a vital role in modern cavitations. We cannot think of a modern
world without it. It is wary useful to all sections of people. Through it, we can learn about all important
things what happen in the world within twenty-four hours. Reports of market conditions games and
sports, the political and economic situation of the country come to us through it every day. It
highlights the news of various interest and the views of important personalities.
The newspaper has an educative value. Mere bookish knowledge is not sufficient in this completive
world. A newspaper helps one enrich one, s general knowledge. A man who does not read
newspapers is like a frog in a narrow well. Being ignorant of the current affairs, he can’t take part in
the talks and discussions in an enlightened society and thus he feels like a fish it of water. A
newspaper is not altogether free from evils. It has some demerits also. Sometimes it publishes false
or partisan news. It excites public feelings. In spite of its defects newspaper is the most useful thing
in modern life. We cannot think of a day without it. It is a looking glass of the modern worker. So we
should read Newspaper regularly.
11. My Native village/Your Village
The name of our village is x. It is a renowned village in the district of x. 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.
Our native village stands in the district of Lakshmipur. 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.
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.
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.
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 Chaomuhani. Within the village
there are about 10 kilometers of semi pucca roads connected with five cyclone centers, market and
educational institutions.
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.
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.
12. Your Favorite Hobby
Every man has his own favourite hobby. It gives him pleasure and joy. It is not his main duty or
profession. I also have a favourite hobby. It is gardening. There are many kinds of hobbies like
singing, painting, reading, stamp collecting, coin collecting, angling, gardening and so on. I love
flowers very much. So, I have made a flower garden. It is in front of our house. I have planted the
seedlings of roses, jasmines, jabas, sunflowers and many other seasonal flowers. When the flowers
Page | 86
bloom, their sweet scent fills the air. My heart fills up with joy. The sight of my garden is pleasant.
Everybody finds joy looking at my garden. I am also happy to make such a beautiful garden. Every
morning I water the plants, till the soil and take care of the plants. In the evening, I water them again.
On holidays, I pass some time there. I have put a bamboo-made fence around my garden. For this,
cattle and other animals cannot enter into it. My hobby is favourite to me because it keeps me
cheerful. When I am bored with my studies or other works, I go to my garden. It soon removes my
boredom. It is a great source of joy and recreation for me. No other hobby can give me as much joy
as this one. So, gardening is my favourite hobby. The benefits I derive from my garden are many.
Before I made this garden, I was a sickly boy. I had lost my appetite and became very weak. But
when I started working in the garden, my health improved. Now I am quite a healthy boy. Besides
this, grow vegetables in a corner of the garden. It saves a lot of family expenses. A hobby is
necessary for every man’s life. But we must not pass much of our time in our hobbies. We must do
our main job or jobs first and then we should pass our leisure time in our hobbies.
13. My Daily Life
To make the proper use of time everybody should have a daily routine. For a student it is all the
more necessary. I am a student. I have also a routine of my daily routine of my daily activities. I
follow it and do everything accordingly.
My activities of the day begin at down. I always remember the proverb-
‘’Early to bed and early to rise
Makes a man healthy, Wealthy and wise.’’
So, it’s my habit to rise from bed 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 Morning Prayer, I go to the
open field to take physical exercise. Coming back from there, I take my breakfast which mother
keeps ready for me. When my breakfast is over, I go to my reading room to learn my daily lessons.
I stay there for about three hours at a stretch with full devotion to studies. At 9 a.m. I get myself
ready to go to school. I usually go to school at 9:30 a.m. I spend nearly five hours there daily. Daily
the school hour I remain very busy with my studies. When the school is over, I come back home
without making any delay. After changing my school dress and washing my hands and face, I take
some light refreshment and merrily go to the field to play with my friends.
Just before sunset, I return home from the playground and go to the mosque to say my evening
prayer. After evening prayer, I again go to my reading room and devote myself to prepare my lessons
for the prayer. Before going to bed, I watch television and listen to the holidays I spend my time
visiting different places with my friends or going to my relative’s house with my parents. A well
regulated daily life is a must for everybody to reach the goal of life. If a man follows a routine in his
everyday life and makes the best use of time, he is sure to prosper in life. Without making and
maintaining a regulated daily life. A regulated and disciplined life is really a blessing while irregular
and undisciplined life is a curse. So, everybody should have a daily routine and follow it strictly. My
daily life runs according to my daily routine. I always try to follow it.

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.
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.
15. A Journey By Train/A journey you have recently enjoyed
Journey by train is the most common thing in our ultra-modern civilization. It is also an enjoyable
experience. Indeed journey is always a pleasure to me. Whenever I go on a journey, my heart is
filled with joy. But my greatest pleasure is a journey by train. It is ever exciting.
During the last autumn vacation, our school was closed for ten days. My uncle lives in Sylhet. He
came home on leave. I requested him to take me to Sylhet. He agreed at this. My heart danced with
joy to hear this because of I always like a journey by train.
The day was fixed. We reached the station in time and bought two tickets. The train was not yet in.
The whole platform was a scene of great confusion and noise. It was crowded with passengers.
Some were sitting near their luggage. Some were moving about Rickshaws, motor cars and all other
conveyances were coming to the station with passengers. Coolies were running behind them.
Vendors were crying out loudly to sell their goods. Then the train came in. We got into the second
class compartment. We occupied two comfortable seats in the compartment. The time for the
departure of the train was drawing near. Soon the warning bell rang. Just at 9.00 a.m., the second
bell rang. The guard whistled and waved his flag. Then the train whistled loudly and slowly moved
on. We now felt a great relief. My mind was full of joy.
I looked outside through the window. The train ran at moderate speed. Then it crossed a bridge over
a river with a clattering noise. Inside the train, the passengers were talking and hawkers were selling
their goods. But outside there was the beauty of nature all around. I was thrilled to see the vast
paddy fields. It was a great fun to see houses and trees slip backward from the moving train.
Sometimes the train stopped at railway stations. The passengers got down and got into. Then the
train started and passed through some villages. I saw the people doing something. All these things
charmed me greatly. At about 5.00 p.m. we reached our destination. Then we alighted from the train
& went out of the station. My uncle’s private car was waiting for us. We got into the car and reached
my uncle’s house in a few minutes. I enjoyed the journey most. The journey gave me immense
pleasure. It was really interesting. I shall never forget the sweet memory of this journey.
16. Duties of a student
Student life is the best period of a man’s life. It is the most impotent time of life. It is called the sowing
season of life. During this period, a student must cultivate some good qualities for bright future. The
future of a person depends much on the student period because in this period a person’s future is
created. Actually, the success and failure in man’s life depends much on the utilization of this period.
There are much duty and responsibility of a student. The first and foremost duty of a student is to
acquire knowledge. But, he must not confine himself to the prescribed books only. He must read
newspaper, magazines, nobles, dramas during his leisure. This kind of reading will widen their
mental horizon and enable them to be acquainted with many things of the world. Moreover, he
should follow some rules and regulations. He should not waste valuable time. He should attend to
his class regularly. We know that good health is the key to success. To be successful in life, a
student must take care of his health. To keep his body fit, he should take regular physical exercise.
Because, without taking physical exercise, a student cannot lead a healthy and comfortable life.
A student should not engage himself in his/her own work. He has also some duties and
responsibilities to the people of the society. We know that most of the people of our country are poor
and illiterate. A student can teach the illiterate people. He can help the villagers to change their poor
condition. He can teach them about family planning, health, nutrition, children rising and scientific
method of cultivation etc. During natural calamities, people need help. In time of flood, famine,
cyclone, earthquake and epidemic students should come forward to help the affected people. They
should collect food, clothes, medicine etc. and distribute them amongst the affected people. A
student should respect his parents and teachers. He should be well behaved, punctual and
Page | 88
disciplined in every sphere of life. He must abide by the rules and regulations of his institution. He
must be gentle and amiable. He must also avoid evil company. He must be honest in life. Without
honesty, any kind of succeed is not possible at all. A student must be truthful also. Because,
truthfulness is the key to all succeed.
17. My aim in life
A student life is the time when he sows of his future life. Therefore, he should prepare his lessons
regularly and proper use of time. She should not waste time idly. A student should bear in mind that
if he do not perform his duties in time, he would suffer in the long run.
Everybody should have a definite aim in life. An aimless man cannot succeed in life. He stumbles in
his way of life. There is a proverb that a person without an aim is like a ship without a rudder. This
proverb is very important for young students. Because, there are many paths open to them. Some
of these are good and some are bad. To take to the right path, they require guidance.
Different men have different aims. Somebody wants to be a doctor, somebody wants to be engineer,
somebody wants to be politician, somebody wants to be high official and somebody wants to be
teacher. Nevertheless, my aim in life is to be a teacher.
There are some reasons for which I have decided to be teacher. I want to serve my country. In this
case, I think that teaching profession is very appropriate. My father always inspires me to take this
career. My father is a teacher of a village High school. He always says that a teacher can lead a
nation to the right way. For this, a teacher is called an architect of a nation. We know that most of
the people of our country are illiterate. They cannot run a better life due to different kind of problems.
Illiteracy problem is one of them. Most of the people are deprived of at least their basic human
needs. Illiteracy paves the way of poverty. This poverty hinders all development efforts of the
country. Therefore, it is not possible developing of the country without removing illiteracy from the
society. I want to change our poor condition. Being a teacher, thus, I want to contribute to the national
development. Therefore, I want to be an ideal teacher. Nevertheless, I never expect to be a college
or university teacher. I want to be a high school teacher and want to remain in village. To be a
teacher, I have to take good preparation in student life. After obtaining graduation, I shall complete
B. ED. course. It is very helpful course for teacher ship. Then I shall come back to my village high
school to join as a teacher. I want to stay in the midst of students and village people. I have also a
plan to open a night school for the adults. I shall teach them about agriculture, family planning,
health, nutrition, children raising etc. I shall distribute books and agricultural materials among them
free of cost. In the end, a good teacher is an asset for a nation. In addition, a good teacher can
change the nation. Now I am working hard to fulfill my desire. My parents always help me to reach
my goal. They are very confident of my success. I am always inspired by them. I hope that I shall
be able to reach my goal and serve the nation by the grace of Allah.
18. My Favorite Game/Sport
Various types of games are played in our country. We can divide them into two types – indoor and
outdoor games. Chess, chauper, cards, ludo, carom etc. are indoor games. Hockey, football, cricket
, basket- ball, tennis, badminton etc. are outdoor and foreign games. Kabaddi , hunting, horse riding,
wrestling, swimming , cock- fighting, ball fighting , tonga-race etc. are long outdoor games but they
are Indian ones. Some games are played in towns and some are popular among the villagers.
Hockey, football and cricket are very popular in towns. I am a good player. Hence I take part in all
the outdoor games. Each boy has his own choice. Some like hockey, other like football, while many
others consider cricket to be their best game. The game which I like most is football. I prefer football
to any other game. It can easily explained. The main object of all games is to give us some exercise.
This is one reason why football is my favourite game. It helps our body to grow. It brings a sense of
discipline and a habit of endurance in us. A good football player is sure to succeed in any walk of
life. He can make himself a great soldier to defend his country. He can be a clever statesman to run
the government. There is no other game which gives hard exercise? Surely none other except
hockey. But hockey carries many risks for the life of a player. It also makes the player quarrelsome.
Often he uses sticks as his weapon.
Another reason of my choice is that it is very economical. It does not require costly equipment. A
ball and a well leveled ground is all that is required to start our game. And then it is easy to pick up
its rules. We do not require any special coach for it is learnt so easily by boys that they begun to
play it in a very young age. They dare not to play hockey or cricket.
Page | 89
Like hockey or cricket, football is played by two teams of eleven boys. A team consists of five
forwards, three half backs, two full backs and one goalkeeper. The player kicks the ball with his feet.
But he may touch it with any other part except with his hands. The goalkeeper, however, can use
his hands as well. A player may be tempted to push an opponent to go far ahead of the ball near
the opposite goal. So pushing and off side are regarded as a foul play. The penalty for a fouled is
kick by a player of the opposite team. The fewer fouls you make, the more chances you have to win
the game.
The game of football give us good exercise. We have to be vigilant and alert. It encourages team
spirit. Educational institutions should attach a great importance to games and sports. game should
be made compulsory in all schools and colleges and students should be encouraged to take part in
them. They make them sound be encouraged to take part in them. They make them sound physically
and mentally. So it is very essential for a student to take part in games.
19. Value of Time
Human life is very short. But they have many things to do. Time flies on quickly like an arrow. So it
is said that time and tide wait for none. In fact the importance of time cannot be valued in money.
Human life is short, but he has to do much and go a long way within this short span of life. Life is
nothing but the sum-total of moments. Every moment is very precious. Success in life depends on
the best use of time. We do not generally use time properly. So we cannot reach the pinnacle of
success. We must remember that success in life largely depends on the proper use of time. Time
once lost can never be regained. If time goes away, it never returns. So we must make the best use
of our time. We must not put off any work for tomorrow. Our work will never be done if we don’t do
it timely. A man who does his work in time is crowned with success. Idle brain is the devil’s workshop.
Idle persons who kill time in vain are a burden on society. They lead an unhappy life and suffer in
the long run.
Everyone should use time in a proper way to succeed in life. To waste time is a crime. Those who
waste time and indulge in idleness cannot succeed in life. An idle man sits idle instead of doing
anything useful. He cannot earn even his livelihood. He passes his days in want and depends on
others like a parasite. He is a burden for society and everybody hates him. Wasting time is a sin. If
time is wasted it will be the cause of our misery and ruin. There should be time for reading, for office
work, for physical exercise, for recreation and for prayer. This means we should do everything when
it is time to do.
Time is more valuable than health and wealth. We can get back lost health and lost wealth but we
cannot get back the lost time. The value of time can be realized only when it is properly utilized. We
are the supreme creation of Allah. So we have to carry on a mission and should do things timely to
reach our goals. The most prosperous nations are those who don’t waste any time. We should take
lessons from them both for ourselves and for our nation.
20. Student life
The time that we spend in school, college and university in the first part of our life is called student
life. It is the time to sow seeds of future life. Student life is the time of most important part of life.
The main duty of a student is to acquire knowledge. We should write articles or school magazine.
These will help us to become a good man in life. A student learn many things from books. But he
has to enter the real world after his student life is over. So he needs practical knowledge of
things. In fact, student life is a life of learning. Student life is a care free life. It is a life of joy. This
life is free from almost all anxieties of the world. At this time, our main work is to read and play.
Our heart is soft . Our mind is simple. We pass our time happily. We can take part in games and
sports. Sometimes, we go on picnic or educational trips. Therefore, the life of a student is a golden
period of life. Student life is a life of character building. Character is very important in life. A
student must also read good books and newspaper regularly. He should learn about his people,
his country and also the world around him.
Only acquiring knowledge is not sufficient for a student. He must cultivate good manners and
develop the good qualities like self-discipline, honesty, truthfulness, fellow-feeling and broad
outlook about life. He must be obedient to his teachers and parents. He should always mix with

A student cannot study all the time. He should take physical exercise and play games regularly.
He should also take part in cultural activities like debate, drama, music, recitation etcetera to
develop his personality. He should eat a balanced diet and say his prayers regularly.

in future life. He must be truthful, honest and active. A student can think of the society. He
can take part in social service. He can teach the illiterate. He can help the poor. Student life
is the happiest period of our life. The success of future life depends on student life. So
every student should use the time properly.
21. Travel by Air
Aeroplane is the most wonderful invention of the recent times in the field of transport. Today mart
can go to the moon in spaceships and come back home quickly and safely. An Aeroplane is like a
magic carpet of the fairy tales which could take you to the distant lands whenever you desired to
go. A flight from Bombay to Delhi by a plane takes less than two hours when by the fastest trains it
takes about 18 hours. Aeroplane is the quickest means of transports. Some Aeroplanes fly at a
speed of more than 800 km. per hour. It helps to save time and attend to urgent jobs at distant
places. One travel from Madras to Bombay, Delhi or Calcutta by morning plane and return back by
evening. To make an air journey, you have to go to the airport where every passenger is given a
boarding card with seat number as an aeroplane has limited number of seats. Announcement is
made on the mike for the passengers to move to the particular plane with its flight number.
Passengers board the plane by a ladder fixed to the door which is removed when all the
passengers are seated. Then the Aeroplane takes off.
First it moves slowly on the cemented runway, then picks up speed and begins to run fast. Within
a few minutes it begins to rise and fly higher and higher above the clouds and far above the earth
to a height of about 6000 to 8000 meters. Before taking off from the ground the passengers are
advised to fasten their seat belts around them and remove them after the plane takes off high into
the air, similarly when the plane is about to land, the same advice is given. This is to avoid jolting
at the time of takeoff and landing. Up in the air, all things below look like tiny little toys. During the
flight time, the Airhostess serves you snacks and soft drinks. She helps you to have a comfortable
journey. People all over the world like to travel by Air planes, it helps the people to develop
contacts with the people of our own country and people of other countries.
In advanced countries, wealthy people have their own plane and pilots to take them from place to
place as and when they desire. An Aeroplane flies like a huge bird fluttering its wings in the air.
Man dreamt long ago to float like a bird in the air. He made many attempts and ultimately he
succeeded.
And the invention of an aeroplane has proved to be a most useful service to mankind. His struggles
for the conquest air has yielded the fruit and we have the fastest Jets. Concord and Air buses
carrying very many people in a single flight.
22. A Village Market
A village market is a place where the villagers assemble from around to buy and sell commodities
necessary for everyday life. So it is an important buying and selling centre for the villagers. It is the
backbone of the rural economy. It is a place of great noise and bustle during market hours. There
are two kinds of village markets – the daily market and the periodic market. The daily market is
held in the forenoon and the periodic market is held once or twice a week in the afternoon. Crowds
of people gather in the market for making sales and purchases. A village market is generally held
in an open place by the side of a river or a canal or a road. It is divided broadly into three parts.
Open space temporary sheds and permanent sheds. Usually shops of the same kind sit together
in the open space. Here milk, fruit, betel leaves, vegetables, fish etc. are sold. In the temporary
sheds there sit the grocers. These sheds are made in rows with sufficient space in between two
rows for the buyers to move freely. The area where the fishermen sit for the sale of fish is the most
crowded part in the market. The remaining part of the market consists of permanent shops or
stalls, also arranged in rows. Here the shopkeepers sell rice, wheat, pulse, flour, sugar, fried rice,
molasses, ghee, spices, cloth and other useful things. This part of the market is less crowded,
because the things sold there are not usually of daily need. Fish, milk, vegetables, rice, pulse,
eggs, poultry are generally cheaper in a village market because these are available in villages.
Page | 91
Clothes, shoes, suitcases and other fancy goods are dearer, because these are bought here from
towns paying changes of conveyance.
The village market is not free from some drawbacks. There is no fixed price of articles here. Another
defect is its unclean condition. There are no public sweepers to sweep away rubbish and filth from
the market. In spite of all these, the village market does great service to the rural people. It saves
them from the trouble and expenses of going to distant places to buy things of daily use. It is the
meeting place of the village people and they also get news and views from here.
23. Flowers of Bangladesh
Flowers are the special gifts of Nature. They lend colour, smell, beauty and charm to the land. There
are various kinds of lowers in our country. They are so many that we do not know even the names
of them all. They differ in size and colour. Some are large, some are small. Some are white, some
are red, some are pink, some are yellow, while some are multicoloured. Flowers small sweet. The
best-known flower of Bangladesh is the rose, the lotus, the marigold, the champa, the jasmine, the
tagor, the jui, the bakul, the beli, the chamily, the Kamini, the sheuli, etc. The rose was not originally
a native of Bangladesh. But it is now largely grown in all parts of the country. It is called the queen
of flowers on account of us beauty and scent. It grows on a plant which is thorny. The lotus is well
known for its delicate perfume. The marigold has a bright color and a strong smell.
It decorates and beautifies the homestead during the winter season. The beli, the jui, the ehameli,
the champa and the gandharaj are all fragrant flowers. The Kamini is a very soft flowers. It scatters
its fragrance over a vast area. The bakul is another type of well know flowers, having a delicate
scent. The sheuli has a snow white colour. The krishachura, the karabi and the Palash are all
scentless and bloom on big trees. All grows clusters. Kadams also bloom on big trees and they are
a special kind of flowers in the rainy season. The sunflowers of different sizes are found in different
places. Winter and spring are the seasons of these flowers. The hasnahena and the rajanigandha
give out their fragrance at night.
We love flowers for their beauty and scent. They are the symbols of beauty and purity. We present
bouquets of flowers to our beloved persons and we also garland our leaders and visitor’s whey they
grace our functions. Bees gather honey from flowers and store it in their hives. We got honey from
these hives. We get rose water and Otto from the petals of roses. Flowers are the most beautiful
objects of Nature. So, men, women and children love flowers all alike. Nature has adorned our land
with the most charming flowers of the world and has made us lovers of flowers.
24. My favorite spot
There are many beautiful and worth seeing historical places in India. But the Taj Mahal of Agra is
the most beautiful of all. It is a dream in marble. My friends and I visited the Taj in the last summer
vacation majesty. The vision cast a spell over me. It stood in unique majesty. What a fine lay-out
indeed! This is what one could say on the spot. It looked white on sides. The green tufts of grass
and the green shoots of the Cyprus trees adorned its majestic beauty. Nature’s beauty made the
ground of the building look all the more beautiful. We went down the staircase. We found the graves
of the King and the Queen under the dome in a dark chamber. Multi-coloured pieces of glass and
couplets from the Quran decorated the side walls. The four minarets stood as watchmen at each
corner of the main building.
A full moonlight followed in a couple of days. We visited the Taj again that night. Its beauty smiled
in the silvery light of the moon. It was a sight for the Gods to see. My joy knew no bounds when I
saw its reflection in the river Jamuna.
A clear picture of marble could be seen. I closed my eyes opened them again to find if it was a
reality. Nay, it was not a dream. As God is there to bestow Nature’s beauty, man’s hand is there to
create wonderful pieces of art and architecture. How could man be so perfect in working out the
minute details of art? I am full of wonder even now. And can still see the beauty of the Taj with my
mind’s eye, if at all I desire so. What a great beauty man could create! It is not wrong to say that the
Taj is a dream in marble. It has a rare charm that casts its magic spell on visitors both from India
and abroad who would have thought that a fanciful thought of love-lorn emperor would become a
world famous monument.
The Taj has become synonymous with India and the Mughals. It is a much awaited visit to Agra and
the Taj that every couple young and old look forward to. The calm Yamuna that flows by its side
adds to its beauty and majesty. I can never forget this visit as perhaps no visitor can who has known
Page | 92
what love is. The Taj Mahal built about three hundred years ago by the Mughal Emperor Shahjahan,
in the memory of his beloved Queen, Mumtaj Mahal.
25. My Country/ My mother land
The name of our country is Bangladesh. It is situated in the south Asia. Its land area is 147570
square kilometres with a large number of populations. It became independence on 16 th December
1971 from Pakistan. Dhaka is the capital of this country. The population of this country is about 16
core and most of them are Muslims. The others are Hindus, Christians, Buddhists and Tribes who
live here with peace and amity. Most of the people of this country use Bangla as their mother
language. Bangladesh is the land of rivers because there are many large and deep rivers in it.
The Padma, the Meghna and the Jamuna are the biggest rivers where various kinds of fishes are
found. The land of this country is very fertile where various kinds of crops and fruits are grown. There
are six seasons in Bangladesh and the weather and climate of all seasons are totally different from
one another. Based on the seasons, different kinds of fruits, vegetables and crops are cultivated.
Rice, jute, sugarcane, potato, tobacco, pulse, oil, seed, vegetable, spices, tea, etc are our main
crops. Our seasonal fruits like mango, jack fruit, guava, black berry, pineapple, banana, coconut,
water melon etc are great attraction to the people of home and aboard.
There are many historical places which make our country more attractive and increase its beauty.
There are several beautiful places in our country. The Cox’s Bazar, The Rangamati, The St. Martin
Island, The Sundarbans etc. are worth seeing. So, every year many visitors from different places of
the world visit the historical places. The visitors are highly attracted by the natural beauties of
Bangladesh. Bangladesh is considered as the gift of nature because of its natural beauties and
resources. Therefore, the development of our country is increasing rapidly and we feel proud to be
the inhabitance of this country.
26. My Childhood Memories
Man is fond of turning back from the present to past again and again. The present may be good but
the past is golden. Nothing is more pleasant to him than the memories of his childhood. The
memories of my childhood haunt me like a passion. Whenever I am sick of present, I try to get relief
in the past days of my childhood. A man cannot remember everything that happened in his
childhood. But certain events are stored in the sub-conscious mind. They sometime peep through
mind’s eye. Very simple and trifling things are the center of attraction for a child. When a man grows
up, he may laugh at those things.
My playground was the bank of the mighty Teesta river. In all the seasons this river had great
attractions for me. Whenever I was not at home, I could be found on its bank. I was very fond of
stealing mangoes, lychees, black berries and other fruits in the company of friends in summer.
Sometimes we would forget to eat our midday meals. The village maktab (মক্তব) was very
interesting place. An old Maulovi Shaheb used to teach us there. It was housed in a small hut
attached to the village mosque. A large number of boys and girls used to attend.
We would learn lesson with deafening noise. The next worth mentioning experience was my first
day at school. When I entered the compound with my father, the children were enjoying themselves
here and there. My mind was troubled with fear that I might not be quite free and easy in their midst.
My hearty began to beat fast when I was taken to the Headmaster but his smiling face and gentle
words put me at ease. I was admitted into class KG. The warmth with which my classmates receive
me dispelled all my fears. Another interesting memory is the village hat. The hat used to sit twice a
weak near a river. I usually went there with some other children. There was a bush near our house.
Hundreds of birds made their nests in that bush. Sometimes I went there with other boys. Some
adventurous boys caught small birds from the holes of the trees.
During holidays when my mother went to sleep at noon, we went to the railway line. There I together
with other children gathered pebbles. We watched how the train passed with innumerable unknown
facts.
27. A Farmer
The farmer is one of the most useful people of since the beginning of civilization. We all depend
upon agriculture to meet our requirement of food. We get our food because the farmer grows
crops and carries the agricultural activities. Though, they feed the entire humanity, their life
Page | 93
conditions are far from satisfactory. The life of a farmer is very tough. He works very hard day and
night in all seasons. During summer, he works under the heat of the sun. During winter season, he
gets wet while ploughing the field. During winter, he carries on his hard work in spite of the dull
and cold weather. The life of a farmer is much dependent upon forces of nature. For agriculture,
adequate monsoon is required. If the rainfall is adequate, the agricultural output would be good.
However, inadequate rainfall and long-spell of scarcity of water may result into drought situation.
As a result, agriculture may get negative affected and there may be acute shortage of food leading
to famines. The farmer earns money by selling his crops.
He remains happy if the crops are good. But, if the crops fail, then his life becomes miserable. A
farmer suffers even if there is abnormal increase in production homogeneously at all places. In
such cases, the selling price of the crops goes down and the excess crops get wasted. Most of the
farmers of our country are illiterate. They can’t read or write.
Since they are not educated, they are unaware of their legitimate rights. They are often cheated by
money-lenders. They have little education and awareness about the benefits of maintaining a
good hygienic environment. Most farmers have no knowledge of the fact that drinking impure
water may lead to health issues. Also, there is inadequate sewage disposal system in our villages.
There is less than adequate medical facilities or trained nurses and doctors in rural areas. Most of
the farmers are simple, hard-working, sincere and honest people. They always remain at the
mercy of nature and God. The Government has introduced several schemes for the benefit of the
farmers. Let’s hope that these benefits will actually reach the farmers.
28. Obedience to Parents
Obedience to parents is a divine virtue. Penn said, ‘next to God, thy parents.’ Thus our parents are
be-all and end-all of our life. Our parents are the source of our life on earth. They have brought up
us with great care and affection from our infancy. They are our best guides, friends, and well-
wishers. They are next to god to us. Obedience to parents is a religious duty. Allah says, “Be grateful
to me and your parents.” Islam says, ‘To please parents is to please god and to displease them is
to displease him.’ Islam further says, “heaven lies at the feet of mother”. Hinduism says, “Mother is
superior to heaven.” Moses taught his people, “Honor thy father and thy mother so that your days
might be long.” Great men assert, “If there is anything heavier than the sky is a father.” All the great
men of the world were obedient to their parents. Hazrat Abdul Quader (R.A), Hazrat Baizit Bostami
(R.H), George Washington, Napoleon, Sir Syed Ahmed, A.K Fazlul Haq, Pandit Iswar Chandra were
all the most obedient sons of their parents.
We all know that Hazrat Baizid Bostami kept standing beside the bed of his ailing mother all the
night with a glass full of water in his hand lest his calling might disturb his mother’s sleep. Again, we
know that Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jilani was so devoted to his mother that he did not hesitate to speak
the truth to the robbers about his having 40 Mohars in his pocket sewed by his mother. He did it so
to carry out his mother’s order, ‘my dear son, never tell a lie.’ Besides, we hear Napoleon Bonaparte
utter about the mother’s, ‘give me a good mother and I will give you a good nation.’ Alexander, the
great, says, ‘only one drop of my mother’s tears can instantly efface my order containing even one
hundred verses.’ When a boy, George Washington was about he came to bid farewell to his mother,
he saw tears in her eyes. He then turned around and said to his servant, ‘fetch my box back, I shall
not go away to break my mother’s heart.’ Such examples of devotedness to mothers can be
multiplied.
The contribution of our parents to our life is beyond description. Our existence on earth would be
impossible without their loving care and affection. We have a lot of duties towards our parents. Our
first and foremost duty is towards good and our second duty is towards parents. Ruskin says, “Man
has three duties to perform: duty towards God, duty towards parents and duty towards mankind.”
We have to carry out whatever they order us to do and avoid whatever they forbid us to do. We
should mind that our parents are heavenly blessings to us on earth. Our holy Qur’an says, “Be
mindful to your parents.
Please them and carry out their orders. Do not show any annoyance at them when they are old.
Always pray to God for their good and peace.” This is why we should be grateful to them and treat
them most kindly and lovingly. Let me recall Alexander’s great saying, “One drop of my mother’s
tears might obliterate my orders of hundred lines.” We should all pray to god for their betterment
both in this world and in the world hereafter. Obedience is said to be the first law of heaven.
Page | 94
Obedience to parents is a great boon blessing. Disobedient children can never be happy. It brings
utter grief and ruin for them. Obedience to parents is a sacred duty for us. We should, therefore love
and honor our parents with all the regard and warmth of our heart.
29. Tea
Tea is the most popular drink in the world today. It refreshes us and gives energy.
Tea grows in the hilly area. It grows in plenty in Bangladesh, China, India, Japan, Srilanka, Thailand
and Myanmar etc. In Bangladesh sylhet and chittagon are suitable place for production of tea.
Tea seeds are sown in a nursery. Tea plants grow fine tea-leaves for three years.
Tea leaves are plucked four times in a year by the coolies. The leaves are dried in the sun.
Then leaves are taken for processing in a factory .
Then they are packed in boxes for sale. Some tea leaves are put in a pot of boiled water. Sugar and
Milk are also mixed. Thus a tasteful cup of tea is made. Tea has become a most popular drink.
People take tea every morning and evening. A cup of tea after hard working gives freshness and
vigour. But it does more harm than good.
Tea is not always good for health. In hot countries it does more harm than good. Much of it is bad
for health. It kills hunger.
Tea is very cheap and popular drink. Almost all rich or poor , young or old take tea once or twice a
day. Tea is our cash crop. It brings huge money for our country. We get a lot of money by
exporting it. So govt. should take proper care to cultivate tea.
30. Television/Uses and abuses of television
Television is a wonderful gift of modern science. Nowadays it is a popular medium of mass
communication. It has brought a remarkable change in human life. It has become a good
companion to the lonely people and a friend to the friendless. It is now a part and parches of
everyday life.
The word “television” comes from the Latin words “tale” and “vision”. The term “tale” means
distance and “vision” means sight. It a word, television means a sight from distance. It is
somewhat different from a radio. From a radio, we only get the voice of the speaker. On the other
hand, we get both the voice and the picture of the speaker from a television.
At first the thought of sending a picture to a distant place came in the mind of pail Nikko, a
German scientist. But John Bayard, an English scientist was able to give this thought a real shape.
As a result, we got television.
The function of a television is mainly completed through two parts. One is a transmitter that
changes the picture Kinta electro-magnetic wave. Another is the antenna that catches this wake
from the air. Then we get the picture.
Television is very useful to modern culture and civilization. We can germ various news throughout
the world sitting at home. Political leaders can also form public opinion through it. It is the best
medium of being familiar with customs and traditions, fashions and culture of the people of
different parts of the world.
Television is a great source of recreation. We enjoy drama. Dance, music, and songs through it.
Nowadays we need not go to the stadium to enjoy a game like a football, cricket, tennis etc. We
can enjoy a live tale-cast of them sitting at home.
Television plays an important role in education. It is being used to teach the students and illiterate
people. It also arranges special programmers for children, women, workers, and soldiers.
Television is not only useful to us. It has some abuses too. Sometimes young boys and girls
concentrate their attention so much on it that they forget about their studies which is their main
duty. Furthermore, there is also a risk of intrusion of western culture into our culture.
Really, the television is the magic of the age. In a developing country like ours, the importance of
television cannot be ignored. So government should try to make it available to all classes of
people.
31. Seasons of Bangladesh
The earth moves around the sun in a year. It is called the annual motion of the earth. It causes six
seasons in Bangladesh changes with the change of this seasons after every two months.
Page | 95
Description of different seasons: The six seasons of Bangladesh are the summer, the Rainy
season, the autumn, the Late Autumn, the winter and the spring.
The months of Baisakh and Jaistha form the summer. The summer is the first season in
Bangladesh. As this is a season of sun and heat, it is known to us a hot season. Mangoes, jack-
fruits, blackberries and melons are available in this season.
The rainy season is the second of Bangladesh. This season comes just after the summer. The
months of Ashar and Shraban are the rainy season. It is a season of rainfall. It cools the air after
the burning heat of summer. Ponds, tanks, canals, and rivers are full to the brim in this. season.
The months of Bhadra and Aswin are called the autumn. This season comes just after the rainy
season. It is a season of the light cloud without rain.
The months of Kartik and Agrahayan form the late autumn. It begins just after the autumn. The sky
looks blue and clear. Harvesting of paddy then fills every mind with great joy.
The months of Pous and Magh are called the winter. At that time the cold wind blows from the
north.
Nature looks dead and gloomy. Of course, many kinds of vegetables then grow in plenty.
The spring is called the king of the seasons. In this season we are saved from biting cold in the
winter. It comes with flowers and new leaves. It gives new life everywhere in nature.
Every season has its merits and demerits. In summer we have various kinds of fruits but it is very
hot and stormy. In the rainy season, we get rain to cultivate our soil and grow crops. But men and
animals remain confined to the thing in nature looks green, fresh and joyful. In the late autumn, the
sky remains clear and cloudless. In winter everything in nature looks gloomy, dull and dead. But
vegetables and fish are available. The spring is the most charming. It is neither cold nor hot nor
damp.
Every season comes with its own specialty and influences in our life greatly. The mind and the
body of the people change with the change of the different seasons.
32. Your Choice of Profession
It is very difficult to choose a professor’. But a profession is a must for one’s livelihood. A life
without any aim is like a ship without a rudder. An aim helps a man to gain his coveted objective,
his career. It is only through choosing a profession we can fulfill our dreams. Among men some
want to earn money, some want to earn fame and some want to serve people. I had to think a lot
to choose my profession or career in life. I think it should be decided according to one’s aptitude,
ability, and merit.
Considering these, my choice is the simple wish to be a teacher.
Undoubtedly teaching is a very noble profession, A teacher is like a potter who works on the wheel
to give shape to his pots, cutting out the rough edges to give a perfect finish to the end product. At
present, neither the students nor the teachers have the same sincerity and singleness of purpose.
However, there are still exceptional teachers who are genuinely concerned about the future of
their pupils and try to guide them sincerely.
Unfortunately, there are people who take to teaching out of compulsion, because the other
avenues are not open to them. They drift into teaching because they have failed to achieve their
ambition. I have by choice decided to opt for teaching. I love working with children. It must be a
very satisfying experience to shape young minds, eager to learn, who come to a teacher in total
faith.
One cannot overlook the advantages that one has as a teacher. One gets so many holidays which
can be used to catch up with other interests one neglects during the working days. This is really a
very tempting prospect. Besides, over the years the salary of teachers has also become very
attractive.
Teaching has certain distinct advantages over other professions. Teachers do not have very long
working hours. Surely, lots of time is taken in preparing the lessons, correction work etc. Still one
can have ample time to pursue other interests. Moreover, teachers are held in high esteem in the
society.
I am not unaware that it is quite difficult to secure admission in a good teachers’ training college. I
am willing to work hard to actualize my ambition, and waiting for the day when, after completing
my training in teaching, I can become a teacher. That day indeed will be a red letter day in my life.
So, I am preparing myself in the time of this profession.

33. The Game You Like Most/Cricket, The world famous game
Everybody has a favourite game like football, cricket, volleyball, hockey and basketball etc. But my
favourite game is cricket. I get much interest in this game. Whenever 1 gets time I like to play
cricket. It is very expensive game. Now, cricket is very popular game. Before, this game was not
understood by ordinary people. But the illiterate mass can even understand the game now;
because World Cup Cricket is shown on television. Mostly, one day game is observed in World
Cup Cricket. Every team consists of eleven players. Eleven players have eleven wickets but after
falling the 10 wickets the game is finished. Next half they go for fielding arid haling. Besides, there
is series game. In our country, one day cricket is very popular now. Even my favourite game is a
one-day cricket match. Normally one-day cricket match is placed rounding 50 over for each team.
Each over contains six balls. The starting of the match is fixed by toss. Winning the toss any team
can ask his opposition to batting.
Normally one-day cricket match is played around fifty over. When a team starts batting. only two
players are on the peach for baiting. The other players sit in the gallery. The players o)’ other
teams are in balling and fielding There are many ways of a wicket falling such as sold-out, run out,
catch out and LBW etc. In the time of balling if the ball hits the wicket, the batsman goes out and
another bat-man comes batting. When the ball of Batman goes tip not touching the ground and if it
is caught by any fielder the batsman will be out. By turns, a team can send 10 players for batting.
Before the wickets falling if the over are finished or before finishing the over the wickets are fallen
and the game is finished for, one team. By this, the game is over. The winning of the game is
determined by run rate.
Cricket is a very interesting game of the world. This game gives enjoyment for a long time.
Normally one day game is started in the morning and finished before the MD Set. During the play
time particularly in the game of hard competition -none can surely say who will win. This is the
most entertaining thing. Once upon a time, maximum people of our country didn’t have interest in
this game. Now, this game has become very popular because of ding the international competition
in the television.
Australia, New Zealand, India, Sri Lanka, England, Pakistan, South Africa, West Indies,
Zimbabwe, Kenya, Ireland, Canada, Canada, Netherlands, Scotland, Afghanistan, USA etc. are
the famous teams of the world. Bangladesh has also pad prospect in cricket if the players are
trained in national basis.
My favourite game is cricket. It is very interesting game. It gives pleasure for a long time. This
game is led by two umpires. It is a very uncertain game; actually the uncertain winning and
defeating give me, very joy. After all, it is much-disciplined game. There is no major conflict to run
the game smoothly. Moreover, I like the game very much for its kingly ire and dress. I am very
deeply charmed by this game. Every man has a favorite writer, poet actor, actress, game etc.
Among all of the games, cricket is my favourite. In this match, I have more pleasure than any other
game. I think Bangladesh has good future in cricket if the players are properly trained up.
Pakistan, England and other are the Inlaid champions of the cricket. Really cricket is a very
interesting game of the world.
34. Traffic Jam in Bangladesh/Chittagong
Traffic jam is a common problem in big cities ‘and towns. It is one of the major problems in modern
time. Everyman in the town has to face the nasty situation of a traffic jam. Traffic means the
vehicles that ply on the roads. It also means communication. Jam means the gathering of the
transport vehicles stand still and become motionless. Traffic jam is a common affair in Chittagong/
Bangladesh. There is no city in Bangladesh where traffic jam is absent. Every day we go out for
work and face traffic jam. Traffic jam takes a prolonged time sometimes. There are many causes
of traffic jam in Chittagong/ Bangladesh. The causes are given below.
Bangladesh is a thickly populated country. So her towns are also thickly. The roads and streets of
our towns and streets are not so wide. In a big town or city buses, cars, trucks and many other
vehicles move on the roads or streets. Men also have to walk by the same road or street. So it
causes a traffic jam,
The traffic laws are not properly utilized. People of our country do not know the law. And those
who know do not obey them. Some people do not pay respect to the traffic law and do whatever
Page | 97
they like to do. It is a cause of traffic jam. Most of the drivers of Bangladesh are illiterate. They
want to drive Vehicles at their sweet will.
Traffic jam causes great harm to us. It creates a great problem for our social and individual life.
Traffic jam created in the road kills a lot of valuable time. Hours after hours we have to wait for the
jam. Students and the service-holders-can’t reach institutions and offices respectively in time. The
Govt. Should be more serious to solve this problem. The traffic jam kills much time, many valuable
lives of the hospital going patients. The traffic police and the drivers should realize the situation.
35. My Future Plan of Life
Every man has an aim in life. A man without an aim is like a ship without a rudder. A fixed aim
helps a man to succeed in life. Great men in the world had their fixed aims in life.
Different men have different aims in life. Some want to be high officials or scholars or poets etc.
Someone wants to be engineer or teacher etc. I am a student of class X, and I have a definite aim.
The aim of my life is to become a doctor and provide free treatment to those who are very poor.
My father who is a doctor always inspires me to be a doctor like him.
This reason of my so choice is that most of the people of our village are poor and illiterate. Good
doctors do not stay in the village.
The poor villagers have no ability to go to town and get better treatment. I saw many poor villagers
die untimely for want of treatment. My heart is filled with profound grief for these people. so, I have
decided to be a doctor and serve the poor people in their healthcare to the best of my ability.
I know that a brilliant result is necessary for studying medicine after H.S.C. I am confident that I
shall get A+ in S.S.C. After that, I shall get myself admitted into Adhyapak Abdul Majid College. I
shall study Biology at higher secondary level. I am confident that I will have a distinctive result and
will be able to qualify myself to enroll in a Govt. Medical College. After securing M.B.B.S degree I
shall come back to my village and open a dispensary. I shall give free treatment to the poor
patients.
Success in life depends largely on the right choice and knack to the profession. I am highly
interested in biology and knowing about human body and medicine. I will start my profession. I
also feel a real love for the poor people who die of diseases without proper treatment. So, I think
becoming a doctor is a right choice for me. May God help me to reach my goal.
36. Rivers of Bangladesh
Bangladesh is a land of rivers. Most of the rivers of our country have risen from the Himalayes and
fallen into the Bay of Bengal. Some of the rivers are big and some are small. The big rivers are
Meghna, the Padma, the Jamuna, the Karnafully etc. The small rivers are Buriganga, the Sitalakhya
, the Gomoti, the Surma, the Titas etc. The rivers of Bangladesh play an important role in the
economy of the country. Bangladesh is an agricultural country. Her agriculture mainly depends on
these rivers. The rivers carry enough silt and make the soil fertile. So, jute, paddy, wheat and other
valuable crops grow in plenty. The rivers serve as good water-ways . The river also helps us in trade
and commerce.
Our rivers are a great source of wealth. They provide us fish. A large bulk of fish comes from these
rivers. Many people earn their living by catching fish in the rivers. The rivers greatly influence our
life in many ways. The people of Bangladesh love the rivers. Most of the rural songs such as Shari,
Bhatiali and Murshidi are the expressions of the people’s love for the rivers. Much of our joys and
sorrows depend on the rivers.
Our rivers also the great source of power and electricity. Some of the rivers are used to producing
electricity. The rivers are not free from demerits. Sometimes they overflow their banks and cause
floods. The floods very often bring us untold miseries and misfortunes. The rivers of Bangladesh do
more good than harm. They are the source of our existence and prosperity. If there are no rivers in
Bangladesh, Bangladesh would have become a desert. So, rivers are the blessing of Bangladesh.
37. Tree plantation/ The importance of tree plantation
Since the dawn of civilization man has a close relation with nature. Trees are the most important
gift of nature. They have made friendship with our life. So, they are our best friend. They play an
important role in our life and economy.
Trees are useful to us in various ways. They are a great source of food and vitamins. We can not
think of our homes, houses, residences etc without trees. we get various kinds of fruits from trees.
Page | 98
Trees give us oxygen without that we can not live. They give shade and shelter. We get medicine,
wood, oil etc from trees. Trees save us from flood and natural calamities.
Bangladesh is a low land. Upper levels are the best suitable place to plant trees. We can use the
unused sea beaches and low – lying unused lands for tree plantation. There are many roads and
highways in our country. We can plant trees on both sides of these roads and highways. Again, we
can use the hilly areas of chittagong and sylhet for tree plantation.
June and July are the best time for tree plantation. Proper steps should be taken to make the
consciousness among the people about the importance of tree plantation. Trees are useful to us in
various ways. They give us oxygen. Without oxygen, we cannot live on earth. They are great source
of foods and fruits. They meet our vitamin deficiency. They give us woods. Woods are used to build
houses and furniture.
Trees have great impact on climate. If we destroy trees at random, the country will turn into a desert.
As a result, our food production will suffer severely. Furthermore, trees help to prevent soil erosion,
drought and flood.
Trees bear a great impact on the climate. If we destroy trees at random, one day our country will
turn into a great desert. As a result, the country will face a great crisis because our country
depends on agriculture.
However, we should plant more and more trees. Trees are part and parcel in our day to day life.
We can not think of our existance without them.
38. My Childhood Memories
Memories of childhood mean some incidents of the past to be remembered. Childhood is the
sweetest period of human life. Wordsworth says, ‘heaven lies about us in our infancy’. Man is fond
of Turing beck and calling up the memories of his by-gone days.
My childhood days were very colorful. They were full of a lot of memorable things and events.
They still flash before my minds eyes and fill my heart with a world of joy and pleasure. Richter
says, ‘remembrance is the only paradise out of which we cannot be driven away.’ I was the
youngest son of my parents. They loved me loved me very dearly and took every care to make me
happy. A single drop of tears was enough to move them. They were my best guides, teachers, and
friends in my childhood. Hundreds of events crowd my memories and hunt me. Let me muse over
some so the striking memories of my childhood below:
The memory of my childhood days more than often takes me back to our sweet home and reminds
me of the wise saying, ‘home, home, sweet home; there is no place like home.’ My feelings can be
best expressed in the words of the poet,
“I remember, I remember
The house where I was born;
The little window where the sun came,
Peeping in at morn.”
My mother was be-all and end-all in through thick and thin and in weal and woe of my life. Her picture is
still hanging on the wall before my reading table. It reminds me of her sweet smiles,
“Those lips are thins -thins own sweet smiles I see; the same that oft in childhood solaced me.”
My playground was on the bank of a small river flowing by our house. We, the boys of our locality, gathered
there every afternoon to play and rang the air and the sky with great shouts and rejoice.
My first lesson of learning began at home under a local Mr. Alan. We, a few boys and girls, sat on a mat
and repeated out our lessons in a singing voice. All the time we moved our body forward and backward.
I used to get up very early in the morning and go out for plucking flowers through the shivering cold of the
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.
Fair and village market, these two places were also a great source of joy and attraction to me. I would go
to these places, roamed about and enjoyed their sights, sounds, and variety very much. There I would buy
things of my choice with my little funds for myself and for my younger.
All these memories act as a great source of bliss in solitude and flash before my mind’s eye over and again
and give me immense joy and pleasure. I feel that I was really happy in my childhood life. Let me quote the
words of the poet:
“Backward, turn backward, time in your flight:
Make me a child again just to-night.”

39. Population problem
Bangladesh is a small country. But it is burdened with a huge population. Bangladesh is in fact one
of the most populous countries in the world. So, population problem is now one of the greatest
problems for our country.
Population of a country is an asset but when the country cannot provide the people with the
necessities, it becomes a burden for a country. Bangladesh is beset with acute population. Firstly,
the illiterate people are not aware of family planning. Due to social and religious superstitions, most
of the people of Bangladesh are adverse to family planning. Polygamy, early marriage, illiteracy and
the hope of more male children are the main causes of population problem.
Population problem is in fact the root cause of many other national problems. Due to overpopulation,
the need of habitation, food and other things are getting acute. It is quite impossible now to meet
these demands. So, food problem, health problem, malnutrition, environment pollution, poverty etc.
are certain consequences of population problem.
To, control this problem, first we have to make the general mass aware of the bad effects of
population problem. Mass media can play a vital role in this regard. People have also to be made
free from social and religious superstition. Family planning campaign should be strengthened.
Moreover, unemployed people should be trained in various sectors to turn them into an asset.
Over population is a great hindrance to all our development efforts. So, it must be controlled at any
cost. The educated and conscious people along with the government should come forward to rooting
out this serious national problem.
40. Science in Everyday Life/Wonders of Modern Science / Science and Modern
Civilization /Uses and Abuses of Modern Science
We live in an age of science. Our life today is governed and conditioned by the wonderful
offshoots of science. We feel the impact of science almost in everyday walk of our life. Science is
the gospel of modern civilization. It has made the impossible possible. It has brought about a
radical change over the globe of the world. Science does today what was supposed to the
impossible yesterday. Electricity is the first wonder of modern science. It has brought about a great
change in our life. Modern civilization itself is indeed the creation of electricity. Modern civilization
would come to a standstill if there were no electricity. It is a great source of power and energy. It
has made our life easy. Comfortable and enjoyable.
Science has done a great magic in the field of communication. Telephone, Fax, telex, wireless,
mobile phone, internet etc. are all great wonders of science, they have conquered time, space and
distance and brought the world closer to us. Radio and television are also two great wonders of
communication.
Science has also invented many wonders for our recreation. We have a cinema, radio, television,
tape recorder, V.C.R, S.T.R etc. For our recreation, these media help us enjoy ourselves and
forget our pains, sorrows, and boredom of our day-to-day Routine-bound hard-felt life.
Science has also modernized our transport system. We can now travel thousands of miles within a
short time by car, trains, buses, launches, and steamers. These transports have brought the world
closer to us. This is why transport is rightly said to be civilization. The more a nation developed in
its transport system, the more it is said to be civilized.
Science and computer, the latest miracle of science Is computer. It is a super electric brain. It
can do all types of difficult calculation, keeping records and information. It is able to work very
wonderfully and effectively. Whatever record and information we keep stored in its memory, we
can retrieve and recover, as and when we need, by pressing buttons. Modern science is like
Aladdin’s magic lamp. We now live scientifically; move scientifically, think scientifically and feel
scientifically. We need science more than ever before indeed.

41. Computer
Computer its the cost wonderful contribution of modern science. It so an ultra modern electronic
device of modern technology. But if has no ability to do anything by itself. It works on the basis of
commands given by the operator. It can solve many complicated problems within a short time.
Computer was invented by the hard work of many scientists. Charles Bavez is called the father of
Page | 100
modern computer. He invented the structure of computer in 1833. His invented computer had five
parts. these were Store, Mill, Control, Input and Output. By following the structure of computer of
Bavez, Harvard University and I. B. M. Company combined invented the modern computer in 1944.
After this, it has been rapidly modified and many other computers have been developed.
A computer performs three functions. It receives data, processes it and at last emits it. At first the
details of work is put into the input of the computer. It is called programmer. The computer does not
work in our language. So the programmer is to be put in its own language. This programmer is typed
and produced in the tele-typeunit of the information input. The output prints the results with the help
of the printing machine.
Computer is a very useful thing to us. It is used in out daily life for various purposes. It has made a
great change in education. The students of developed countries use computer to prepare their study
materials. The result of examinations now is prepared accurately by computer within a short time.
Besides, printing books has been much caser for computer.
Computer is used to diagnose diseases. A new process of operation this invented by computer as
an alternative to sugary. Beside this, computer is used is grind atones in normal pathological test.
Now-a-days, computer is used to prepare document and budget and to store information. The notice
of currency and price of any share can be known instantly by computer.
At Present, computer so used to run mills, factories and industries in developed countries. Cats,
trains and place are also run by the computer. Computer is being used in space research.
In spite of having innumerable merits of computer, it has also some demerits It weakens the eye-
sight of the operator.
The computer is a blessing of modern science. Today’s world cannot be imagined without
computer. It lessens out labor and makes our work easy and simple. But computer has not been
widely introduced in Bangladesh. So Govt. should facilitate its use all over the country.
42. The farmers of Bangladesh
Bangladesh is mainly an agricultural country. Agriculture is the base of its economy. The man who
cultivates land is called a farmer. Farmers grow crops which is the most important thing of basic
needs. They are the backbone of our country.
There are three classes of farmers in our country. The rich farmers the, middle class farmers and
the landless farmers. Most of the farmers in our country include middle class with a small piece of
land. Farmers of this class usually till land with their own bullocks and they hardly can grow much
food as per their demand. The rich farmers are very few in numbers and they get a small share of
crops with the land owners.
The methods of farming in our country are much backdated. Majority of the farmers are poor and
illiterate. They cannot afford to buy modern tools of cultivation. They plough their land with
bullocks and use sickle to cut the grains. They also do not know how to cultivate land in the
scientific method. This results unsatisfactory yield from the cultivated land.
The life standard of the farmers in our country is very low and they are to suffer even from the lack
of fundamental needs of life. They are ill-fated, ill-treated and deprived from the light of modern
science. They work hard but do not get proper nutriment. As a result they suffer from various
diseases. Their children do not receive good education and follow the path of their for-fathers.
Some effective steps should be taken to improve the socio-economic conditions of our farmers.
They should be taught the modern scientific method of cultivation. They should be given hybrid
seeds, right kind of pesticides and balance dose of fertilizers so that they may grow more food.
Justified price of the agricultural production should be ensured so that farmers may get right price.
Irrigation facilities should be ensured and farmer should get loan on low interest.
The development of our country is mainly dependent of the improvement of our agriculture. We
should not neglect our farmers and all possible steps should be taken to improve their condition.
43. The Natural Beauties of Bangladesh
Nature seems to have lavishly bestowed on this land all her beauty and bounties. It is truly called
the ‘treasure trove’ of nature.
Bangladesh is very rich in flowers, vegetation and green fields. The blue sky, the green fields, the
yellow corns have an unending fascination for all. Seeing the uncommon beauty of Bangladesh
Jibananda Das, our Bengali poet exclaims with ecstatic joy, “I have seen the beauties of
Bangladesh. So I no longer want to seek the beauty of the world.”
Page | 101
The beauties of Bangladesh have been praised greatly by the travellers. The green plains and
meadows, the rivers, the clear blue sky, the scenes of hills and mountains have made this country
unequal in the world in natural beauty.
The Padma, the Meghna, the Karnafuli and many other rivers have criss-crossed the country like
nets. These rivers have added to the beauty of the land. The scenes of the boats plying in these
rivers present a magic beauty.
The beauty of nature changes with the change of season. Six seasons appear here with their
special appeal. In the rainy season fields are filled with water. Nature wears a festive look in
spring. Trees are decorated with new leaves and flowers.
We have some places with uncommon scenic beauty which always attracts the tourists. Cox’s
Bazar, Kaptai, Sylhet, Hill tracts and the Sunderbans among others are blessed with most
enchanting natural beauty.
The hill tracts of Rangamati, Kagrachari and Bandarban with evergreen tropical forests present a
nice view. There are many waterfalls in Bangladesh. The waterfalls of Jaflong, Madhabkundu in
Maulivi Bazar and Suvalong in the district of Rangamati present an unforgettable scene. While
travelling through the zigzag hilly roads the tourists enjoy the superb beauty of the hills and the
deep forests of Bangladesh.
Cox’s Bazar has the largest natural sea beach. Bathing and swimming in the waves of the sea
during tide are a lot of fun and excitement. It is called the ‘pleasure seekers’ paradise’. A range of
green hills runs along the beach along 96 km. The silvery beach with evergreen hills in one side is
the tourists’ ideal dreamland. The waterfall of Himchari near the beach beckons people.
Kaptai lake ringed with evergreen tropical forests presents a captivating scenic beauty. Sylhet is
known for the tea gardens. The green tea gardens along slopes of the hills are really picturesque.
A range of evergreen tropical forests stretches along the coastal belt of southern Bangladesh. It is
called the Sunderbans. The Sunderbans is the largest mangrove forest in the world. It is beautiful
with its attractive flora and fauna. The Royal Bengal Tigers and spotted deer of the Sunderbans
present an unforgettable scene to the tourists. Numerous small rivers have criss-crossed the
Sunderbans.
Kuakata Sea-beach in the southern Bangladesh also holds out a great attraction to the tourists.
The tourists find immense pleasure when they visit Saint Martin Island in the Bay Of Bengal. The
beauty of this small Coral island and Cheradwip near St. Martins’ island beggars description. The
beauty of Teknaf hills with evergreen forest and the Naaf river along the Myanmar border is
attractive. In addition to these sites, there are many beautiful places in Bangladesh.
The natural beauty of Gazni garo hills in Sherpur, Chimbuk and Keyakedong hills in Bandarban
are really attractive. While enjoying the scenic beauties of these places, the tourists forget the
wearies and troubles of life for the time being. All these make the land a romantic rendezvous for
the tourists.
44. Duties to Your Parents
Man is the best creation of God. He comes to this world through the excruciating pain of his
parents. He has certain duties. he has Duty towards God. duty towards parents and duty towards
parents is the foremost duty of man. Parents contribution to us are immense. Mother the keeps the
child on her womb for 280 days. She breeds the child. When a human child is born, it is very
helpless. The parents rear them. They take every care of the children. They do not seek the own
happiness. The parents rear them. child up. They feed the children even themselves being unfed,
They work for our own prosperity. They sacrifice themselves for the welfare of the children. thus
the parent's contributions to the children are innumerable and indescribable. Parents are our
guide, friend philosopher. They teach us the first knowledge. They lead us in the best way. They
lay their moral teaching on us. They even sacrifice their lives for the children. Thus duty to parents
is our holiest responsibility.
To obey our parents is our religious duty. They are our well-wishers. We must be grateful to them.
We should work for their well-being and happiness. We should not act against their wishes. We
have to go on the basis of their advice. We should not displease them. In old days, parents
become weak and enfeeble. At that time, they need more and more attention. We must serve
them in their woe and ow. Parents will be happy if they find that are cared for their children.
Page | 102
Disobedience to parents id the most heinous work It is a great sin. A disobedient child is not better
than a filthy beast. God is displeased with him. He is never helped by God. He will be thrown into
the deep pit of sufferings. In fact, Disobedience to parents will disparage us to a lower level. Every
human being should be grateful to parents. We should work for our breeders. We should not
deviate from this moral duty. We owe to them a lot. We can not repay what we owe to them. If we
can work for the satisfaction of our parents, will find that their sacrifices and sufferings have been
amply paid.
45. The most Common Birds of Bangladesh
Bangladesh is a favorite homeland of a great variety of birds. The names of all kinds of birds are
not even known to us. We go to bed with the songs of birds at night and wake up again with the
songs of birds in the morning. They are found flying, singing and chirping up and down from dawn
to dusk.
There are many varieties of birds in Bangladesh. They are different in color, size, and habit.
Some are white, some are black some are green and some are red. Some are small and some are
big. Some are beautiful and some are ugly. Some are wild and some are domestic. Some have a
sweet voice and some have a harsh voice. Their food habits are also different.
The biers which are capable of singing are called singing birds. The Doel, the Krakatau, the
magpie robin and the cuckoo are the singing birds. The cuckoo is the most popular singing bird in
our country. It is called the harbinger of spring. It pours out its sweet notes hiding behind the
leaves of trees. The magpie robin is small but pretty. It sings and raises its tail at the same time.
The Doel is our national bird. Its sweet whistle attracts us greatly.
The birds which live on the animals preyed on them are called game birds. The kite and the hawk
are the birds of prey. They have keen eyes and sharp nail. They upon chickens and ducklings.
The vulture is a bight ugly bird. It does well to us by eating up dead animals. The kingfisher
catches fish and feeds off them.
The birds which live in the watery place are called water birds. The swans, the duck, the heron,
the Pan-kauri are the water birds. They can both swim and fly. They live near the rivers, canals,
and swamps. They live on fishes and frogs.
The bird which teaches us in different ways is called the teasing birds. the crow and the kite are
worth mentioning among them. The crow is an ugly bird. It is disliked by all for its nasty habits and
harsh voice. It steals our foods. The kite often sweeps away chickens from the courtyard of our
house. The birds which are beautiful to look at are called beautiful birds. The Kingfisher, the
woodpecker, the Kakatua, the Moyna, the parrot, the Chandana- are all fine looking birds. The
pink crest of the woodpecker is very nice to look at.
Birds are really a wonderful creation of God. They maintain a balance of healthy environment in
nature. They contribute much to add charm and beauty to our country. They are friends to the
friendless and source of living to the unemployed. So, we should all be kind to these birds and
make our land a happy and sound homeland for them.
46. A Memorable Day of My Life/ My First Day at School /A Memorable Event of Your Life
Life is made up of events and experiences. But all of these are not equally important and
memorable. Some of these are pleasant and they remain evergreen in great. My first day at school
is such an event.
It was the 1st January of 2013. On that very day man, my father tools me to the nearest primary
school of our locality in the morning. When I stepped inside the school compound with my father I
was somewhat afraid finding myself in a new environment my heart began to beat. At first, he
asked my name and some other easy questions. I could answer all of them.
Then I was taken to the classroom just at 10.00 a.m. Our class teacher MD. Khalilur Rahman
appeared before us. We all stood up to show him respect. The class lasted 35 minutes and all the
time he treated us as his friends and spoke in a polite manner. Finally, he gave us Hemet work.
When the bell rang, he left the class. I had four other periods with a break of 30 minutes. I found
that all my teachers were careful, friendly and helpful.
At the leisure Peron all of my classmates started playing of the field. I felt very lonely and was
loitering here and tree. Then they invited me to join them. At first, I was a little suspicious. But the
warmth with which they received me dispelled all my fears. I felt myself like a free bird flying in the
open sky.
Page | 103
My first day at school in the most memorable day of my life. Everything in the school appeared
before me to be new and joyful. I left the school at 02:30 p.m. With new experience and cheerful
mind. The day will remain evergreen in my mind.
47. The Annual Prize Giving Ceremony of Our School
An annual prize-giving ceremony is an annual event in which the school awards the most
meritorious students, the athletes, and other cultural activities. Almost every school organizes
prize giving ceremony every year. It is a colorful and enjoyable event to the students, teachers and
the guardians.
The last prize giving ceremony of our school was held on 1st January this year on the school
compound. For this occasion, we were busy for about a week in decorating the school building
and premises. All the buildings in our school were painted white and the premises were decorated
with balloons, festoons, colored papers etc. our central field was also decorated nicely. Special
guests and the guardians of students were invited to this occasion. A big pandal was made for it.
With the arrival of the chief guest, the function started at 10.00 a.m. the chief guest took his seat at
the stage. Our headmaster raised the annual flag. Then the national anthem was sung. While
singing the national anthem every audience stood up.
There were two nicely decorated tables on which the prizes and medals were arranged in proper
order. On the other side, there was a platform for delivering the speech. The ceremony began with
the recitation from the Holy Quran. Then the headmaster delivered his speech. In his speech, he
read our school result. Everyone was surprised hearing the improvement of our school result. After
the Headmasters’ speech, the chief guest came to deliver his speech. He congratulated the
institution for its brilliant performance. He gave the students valuable pieces of advice. Then the
main ceremony began. The Headmaster called the students by name for receiving prizes. The
chief guest shook hands and gave the prizes to the students. I also got one prize for doing good
result last year.
Thus the function came to an end. Both the guardians and the students enjoyed the function. The
memory of this day is still fresh in my mind. I will never forget it.
48. The importance of Rivers
Bangladesh is a land of rivers. She is in fact cross-crossed by numerous rivers. These river are
very useful to the overall development of the country. The river here are full to the brim in the rainy
season. But in winter they take a very shabby look.
There are many rivers in Bangladesh. Of them The Padma, The Meghna, The Jamuna, The
Karnaphuli, The Brahammaputra etc are the big and main rivers. Apart from these, there are many
other small river almost all over the country.
The rivers of Bangladesh play a very important role in various sectors.
Firstly, They are a huge source of fishes. Actually the rivers are a real sanctuary of fishes which d
one of our main food items.
Secondly, The agriculture sector of our country largely depends on those rivers for irrigation.
Thirdly, Some nightly river are also great source of energy. For example: The hydro-electric
project on the river Karnnafuly can remove the power shortage of Bangladesh to a great extent.
Fourthly, Our river are the main way of communication. Moreover the rivers carry silt with them
which increases the fertility of our lands. They are also a great source of natural beauties.
Despite many advantages, the river sometimes cause suffering to the people. The river often get
filled by excessive rainfall and cause floods. Floods bring about untold miseries and misfortunes.
In spite of having a few negative effects, the rivers of Bangladesh play a very significant role in the
sociology- economy of the country. Truly speaking, the rivers are the part and parcel of our
country. They are no doubt a blessing to us as well as our country.
49. A village doctor
A village doctor is a most familiar figure in the village. He renders a very valuable service to the ill-
fed, ill-clad, ill-healthier and ill-housed village people.
A village doctor is generally a quack. He now passes for a doctor after modern fashion. A village
doctor works for a doctor after modern fashion. A village doctor works with a qualified doctor for
few years and receives training under him. Then he comes to his native village and begins
practicing as a doctor.
Page | 104
A village doctor opens his dispensary either is the parlor of his house or in a room in the village
market. He has in his dispensary a table, a chair, one or, two admirals with a small stock of
medicine and one or two benches for his patients. He does not take the service of a compounded.
He takes very small fees from his patients and lives a very simple life.
A village doctor leads a very busy life. He examines his patients at his dispensary in the morning
and gives them medicine. Then he goes out to attend his private calls. He goes out either on foot
or by bicycle. He is seen to attend the patients with an air of a qualified doctor. He is very regular
in his duties. He takes special care of his patients. He looks upon them as his own relatives. This
is why. He looks upon them as his own relatives. This is why; he is loved respected by one and all
in the village.
It is needless to speak of the importance of the village doctor in the context of our rural
Bangladesh. A village doctor Is badly needed in the village. Qualified doctors are hardly available
in the village. Hence villagers have to all and sundry. Moreover, they do not need to spend much
money for treatment under him. Not only that they always him by them in their weal and woe.
We know that the motto of life varies from person to person according to his taste, choice, and
temperament somebody desires power, somebody hankers after wealth, and somebody craves for
high honor and dignity in the society. While somebody wants to be a lawyer, an engineer, doctor, a
pilot, a teacher and so on. A village doctor has taken up the profession of serving the distressed
humanity serving the deceased persons of the village. It needs and sufferers of the various
diseases. More than often a great number of them fall victim to immature death for want of proper
treatment and health-care.
Then a village doctor comes forward to serve them. He attends to the call of patients at any
moment. He thinks little whether the weather is fair or foul, the time is good or bad, the path is
even or rough, the life is secured or risky or does he bother much about the payment to be given
to him as fees. The only thought that crosses his mind is how to help him come round soon. A
village doctor is a great friend of the village people. Our government should take necessary steps
to better the conditions of the village doctors.
50. A Memorable Day of My Life/ My first day at school
A man starts receiving his formal education from any primary educational institution. This is the
first stage of the life of a tender aged boy or girl to be acquainted with a new world of knowledge
and experience. This is why the first day at school leaves an everlasting impression on the mind of
a learner. It goes without saying that the first day of going anywhere is very thrilling to all. My first
day at school was also a day of great thrills. Education is light and knowledge is power. They are
both deeply related to the change of life. Change is the law of life while stagnation is the death of
life. A proverb also goes, ‘life is action, not contemplation.’ A man cannot make his life on earth
well-fitted for the future struggle without changing his born-course of life. He can change his born-
course of life by discovering and expending his dormant faculties through acquiring knowledge,
especially formal or institutional knowledge. My parents having been led by this noble motto had
sent me to the nearby primary school at age of six. Mysterious are the ways of God. Man’s
creation on earth is all the more mysterious. The sheer reality of our life on earth is that one
moment we laugh in joy while the next moment we burst into tears. Actually, our earthly life is just
living a bubble. Many an event of joy and sorrow of our life lies stored upon the pages of our
memory. But all of them are not equally important and memorable to us. Most of them are
forgotten with the passage of them. Only a few from amount them more than often peep through
the window of our mind’s eye and give us either joy or sorrow. I have also a few finger-counted
events of both joy and sorrow stored up in my memory which is worthy to be remembered. The
memory of my first day at school amounts to one of them. It is still glittering vividly in my mind’s
eye life the glittering stars studded in the sky. The day of my going to school came up. Mother
washed me well. Combed my hair and dressed me in fine clothes. My father also got ready. I took
leave of my mother. Father took me to the school. All the way I walked with him a throbbing heart.
The school was situated in an open space facing the south. It was housed in a big L-shaped
building. There was a large field in front of it. There were flower gardens all around. It was very
sweet to look into the beautiful face of the school. Father took me to the headmaster. He spoke
very kindly to me. He asked me some questions and I answered them all very promptly. He was
very pleased and allowed me admission to class two. He patted my head with deep saying. ‘it’s a
Page | 105
very friendly place. Everybody will help you, so don’t feel worried.’ These kind words of the
headmaster dispelled all sorts of fear of hesitation from my mind. Our class teacher was a very
nice man. He received me very kindly and showed me my seat. He was teaching English. The
other teachers also spoke gently to me. My classmates were eager to make friendship with me.
Our school broke up at 4 p.m. I came out with the other boys amidst great hue and cry. I welded in
a hurry and found my mother awaiting me on the way. She fondly took me her arms and gave me
many things to eat. Thus my first day at school came to an end. It is said that the first impression
lasts long. It continues to be true in my life too. Though my first day at school came to an end, my
imagination kept roaming about with my senses all over the passed-by way. I felt like saying
‘backward, turn backward, time in your flight.’ To speak the truth, the findings and the experiences
I had on that day still float up before my mind’s eye and fill my heart with a world of joy and
pleasure. I wish I could go back to that school day again. My first day at school is indeed a new
and interesting experience in my life.

So, it’s my habit to rise from bed 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 Morning Prayer, I go
to the open field to take physical exercise. Coming back from there, I take my breakfast which
mother keeps ready for me. When my breakfast is over, I go to my reading room to learn my daily
lessons. I stay there for about three hours at a stretch with full devotion to studies.
At 9 a.m. I get myself ready to go to school. I usually go to school at 9:30 a.m. I spend nearly five
hours there daily. Daily the school hour I remain very busy with my studies.
When the school is over, I come back home without making any delay. After changing my school
dress and washing my hands and face, I take some light refreshment and merrily go to the field to
play with my friends.
Just before sunset, I return home from the playground and go to the mosque to say my evening
prayer. After evening prayer, I again go to my reading room and devote myself to prepare my
lessons for the prayer. Before going to bed, I watch television and listen to the holidays I spend my
time visiting different places with my friends or going to my relative’s house with my parents.
A well regulated daily life is a must for everybody to reach the goal of life. If a man follows a
routine in his everyday life and makes the best use of time, he is sure to prosper in life. Without
making and maintaining a regulated daily life. A regulated and disciplined life is really a blessing
while irregular and undisciplined life is a curse. So, everybody should have a daily routine and
follow it strictly. My daily life runs according to my daily routine. I always try to follow it.
Kishoreganj is also famous as the home of some important personalities. The first woman poet of
Bangla literature Chandrabati was born here. Syed Nazrul Islam, the first acting President of
Bangladesh is also from this town. Two popular writers of children literature Upendro Kishore Roy
Chowdhury and Sukumar Roy are also from here. The great master of painting, Zainul Abedin also
comes from Kishoreganj. I am very proud of my hometown.
54. The Rainy Season
There are six seasons in Bangladesh. The rainy season is one of them. It comes after summer.
Ashar and shravan are the months of Rainy season. During the rainy season the sky is cloudy.
Sometimes the sun is not seen.
During the rainy season it rains cats and dogs. So people keep themselves inside the house.
Students can not go to school,madrasha, and colleges. Road become mudy and slippy.
Rivers,tanks,ponds and canals become full to brim. Many villages goes under water.
The rainy season is very useful for our country. It brings alluvial silt. It makes our land fertile.
Bangladesh is a land of agriculture. Our agriculture mainly depends on water. So the rainy season
is a very important season for us. Rain brings much water for our land and paddy, Jute, sugarcane
etc. grow rapidly. Farmers are busy in this season. They sing and work in the field with joy. The
house and roads are washed away in this season. We get fishes in this season.
Sometimes the rainy season is a curse. Sometimes flood occurs and washes away our crops and
houses. Several disease break out. The poor can not earn their living.
It is true that the rainy season makes earth cool after the heat of summer. The nature looks very
beautiful. I like this season very much.

55. “My Favorite Teacher.”
A good teacher is an important man of the society and the country. He is a potential nation-builder.
In fact, teachers are the guardians of civilization. They stand next to parents. An ideal teacher is a
teacher who dedicates his life to the welfare of his students, society and the country. An ideal
teacher must have the capacity of teaching effectively. To him, teaching will not only be his
profession but a mission. He must be amiable and well-behaved. He must take proper care of his
students. Every student loves a good teacher. Mr Alan is such a good teacher in our school. He is
our English teacher. He is very popular with the students. I like him most.
There are many reasons for liking him most. Here some of his good qualities for which I have been
one of his devotees are described in a nut-shell.
Although English is a hard subject, he teaches us in such a way that we need not read it again at
home. He has the capacity to create interest in the mind of the students. For this, the young
students listen to him with proper attention. He is very conscious of his students. He always
speaks gently and behaves with proper attention. He is very conscious of his students. He always
speaks gently and behaves with the student’s like a friend. This is why there is hardly any student
who misses his class willingly.
He is very intelligent and can discover cover the hidden treasure inside each student. His
convincing power is very great. He can convince easily even the naughty students with his sweet
and lucid voice. He tries his best to correct the students.
He is very dutiful, punctual and gentle. He never denies his duties to the students and the college.
With much care and earnestness, he carries on his duties. He loves us very much. His love and
affection are equal to all. He never behaves badly with the students and his stuff.
He is very honest and sincere. He never tells a lie. He never allows the students to adopt unfair
means in the examination hall. He is always against injustice. He is pious and kind. He behaves
well with the students. He helps them prepare their lesson. He is never angry with the students.
students ask him questions, he does not feel annoyed. He plays with the students. He takes any
part in the extracurricular activities of the students. he accompanies the student for the picnic and
study tour. He behaves like a friend of the students. So, every student loves and respect him. He
is very much cultural minded. All the cultural activities of our school are conducted under his
direction. He can stonewall and recite poems wonderfully. He is a progressively minded man. He
is not biased withhold thoughts and ideas of life. He feels the necessity to fulfil the demands of the
modern age.
56. The Victory Day of Bangladesh
The Victory Day is a red letter day in our national life. The 16th December is the victory day in
Bangladesh. We achieved our freedom through victory on the 16th December in 1971. Since then
we have been living as an independent nation. So, the 16th December is the most significant
event for us. We had been under the Pakistani rule from 1947 to 1971. Bangladesh was named
East Pakistan. From the victory, the Pakistani rulers were ruling our country with an iron rod. They
were depriving us of our rights. They were looting our money and sending it to West Pakistan.
They were establishing industries in West Pakistan. So, people of the east part were becoming
jobless. Not only that, the rulers were growing more brutal too. They were torturing those who
were raising their voice against their injustice. Even, the once tried to impose Urdu upon us.
Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was forced no to form a government through his party won
absolute majority int he general election. Rather, he was taken the prisoner on the 25th March
1971. The Pakistani rulers killed thousands of people. They fired villages after villages. Finding no
other way, Bangladesh Sheikh Mujibur Rahman declared independence on the 26th March. Then
the Liberation War began. We become independent through a bloody war after nine months. The
day has a great importance in our national life. We have earned name and fame for this day. Now
we are the citizens of a free country. We are enjoying equal rights. We do everything freely. We
are living in respect. We don’t need to bow down our head before any force. The whole world
knows our country now. The day is a great inspiration. It encourages us to go ahead. In
conclusion, we can say that the Victory Day is our pride. Thy day has given us a new recognition.
The day has given us named and fame. So, we are proud of the day.

57. Visiting a Place of Historical Interest
Travelling usually gives us delight. It also enriches our knowledge and broadens our outlook.
When a visit is paid to a particularly important place with a view to gaining knowledge, it becomes
more effective for learning.
The Shat Gambuj mosque (Sixty Dome Mosque) is one of the most important places in
Bangladesh. It is now a part of world heritage. It has been declared as the world heritage by
UNESCO. Last March I had an opportunity to visit the place with my other three friends.
At first, we visited the major of Khan Jahan Ali. It stands on a raised ground. The tomb is made of
cut-out stone. Nobody can say where these stones are brought from. People of this locality have a
strong belief that these stones were brought from Chittagong by floating on water. It is true that
these stones are not available in this area. On the tombs, there are inscriptions in Arabic.
There is a vast tank in front of the Mazar which looks like a lake. There are some crocodiles in the
tank. People believe that if they appease the hunger of the crocodiles with hens, cocks, and goats,
they will have the desire of their heart fulfilled. Whenever anybody makes such offering, the
caretaker of the Mazar calls out the crocodiles shouting, ‘Kala pahar, Dhala pahar, come!’ Within a
few minutes, the crocodiles make their appearance and swallow the objects offered. We stayed
there for nearly one hour and then left for Shat Gambuj mosque. This is about one and a half mile
away from the Mazar.
The Shat Gambuj mosque stands on sixty stone-pillars with its seventy-seven gambuj or domes
and not Shat or sixty gambuj as the name indicates. Some say that it was used by Khan Jahan All
as a mosque. Others are of the opinion that it was used as a darbar by the then Mughal Governor
of that place. But it is more associated with the name of Hazrat Khan Jahan Ali than with the name
of the Governor. But it is undoubtedly a historical mosque. Its architectural design has a special
attraction for the tourists.
The Ghoradigi is another tank which was built by the side of the Shat Gambuj. Its length is more
than double its breadth. It is said that before digging the tank, a horse was made to run. Covering
a certain distance, the horse stood still. That distance was accepted as the length of the tank or
dighi. This dighi has also some crocodiles.
We spent some hours visiting the historical place. We could learn many things about Khan Jahan
Ali and the historical importance of this area.
Khan Jahan Ali was a great preacher of Islam. He tried his best to make the area of Bagerhat a
habitable land. He built mosques, dug tanks and made roads. He could amass vast wealth for his
own luxury but he did not do so. He was a monarch without a crown. He loved the people. I came
to know about the glorious history of our past and returned with a sense of satisfaction.

the room. It's not providing much scope associated with/related to enjoyment and entertainment.
We can't enjoy our off/leisure periods for want of indoor sports materials.Internet connection is
badly needed in our common room to be connected/updated with the changing world.
I, therefore, pray and hope that you would be kind enough to increase the facilities of our common
room and oblige thereby.

and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise'. So please try to sleep early and get up

My Dear Jobaer,
I have received your letter just now. I am very glad to know that you are well. In the letter, you have
wanted to know about bad effect of water pollution. Here, I am giving you a brief description of it.
Water pollution is a threat to life. Men and animals cannot live a sound life using polluted water.Water
is polluted in various ways. With the development of industries, large amount of industrial and
municipal wastes are discharged into rivers, lakes and canals. Fertilizers and insecticides are used
in the fields by the farmers. Rain and floods wash away these chemicals and mix them with the
water of rivers, canals and ponds. A lot of latrines are built on the bank of the rivers and canals. A
number of katcha drains carrying human wastes and filth run into rivers and canals. Water vehicles
throw food waste and human waste into rivers. Thus water gets polluted with toxic chemicals and
Page | 123
different wastes.It results in the death of marine lives. We also suffer from waterborne diseases
when we drink polluted water. In fact, the price of pollution is the death of mankind.
No more today. Convey my salam to your parents and love to the youngers.

was crossing the road, a truck loaded with goods was coming from the opposite direction. The driver

you a lot to regain energy. Besides this, you can play games and sports. You can play badminton

Dear Friend,
How are you? Everything is well at my end and hope the same with you. In this letter, I wanted to
tell you about the importance of studies. It helps in the holistic personality development and nation
building. As a result of an increase in competition in recent times, there has been a notion that
passing the exams with good numbers is the most important for group studies. Working together,
students in study groups can generally learn faster than students working alone. For instance, some
part of the textbook that seems completely confusing to you could be quite clear to another student.
Page | 127
In a study group, you can learn quickly by simply asking a question, instead of spending valuable
time puzzling over the difficulty alone. In addition, you can help your fellow students when they have
difficulties understanding something that you do understand. For now, I’m ending the letter. Will talk
about it more in another letter. Take care of yourself.

It was winter vacation. Our school was closed. I with some of my friends arranged a picnic. We

about 9 am with all necessary utensils and materials. After reaching Sonargaon we finished our
breakfast by 9.30 am. We did not take any cook with us. Our mathematics teacher, Mr. Anwar
Hossain has a reputation as an expert in cooking. I helped him in cooking. Some were singing,
some were cutting jokes and others were playing different types of games. At about with full
appetite, after lunch we went out for sightseeing. Sonargaon charmed us most. We started for
home at 5 pm after taking our tea. We enjoyed the picnic most.

44. Write a letter to your friend about your first day in High School.
My Dear Friend,
Please take my friendly salute, I got your letter. You have asked me to write you about my first day
in High School. I am writing it below. On last Monday I went with my dad to the Modern
High School. I took admission and sat in Class VIII. Only fifteen students took admission till then.
So, the class was very thing. Admission work was going on in the school-office. That day I
attended the prayer-class. In the first period, our class-teacher came to our classroom. He made
the roll-call. He saw that the class was very thin. So, he did not teach anything. He told us a nice
story. In the second period our English teacher came. He asked us our names and the names of
our old schools. Another teacher came in the third period. He called out the routine and the book-
list for us. That day, our class was suspended after the 3rd period.
Dear Friend, in this was I spent my first day in Class VIII. Please tell my respect to your parents.

45. A letter to a friend about describing her about how people suffer if it is too much water.
25 May, 2019
Dear Alan,
Hope you are doing good. I came to write this letter to tell you about how people suffer in too much
water. Excessive and continued heavy rainfall is the main cause of too much water. When there is
heavy rain for a number of days the rivers cannot hold and carry down too much water to the sea.
As a result, the water overflows the bank of rivers and submerges a vast area of land. 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. 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.
46. A letter to your cousin inviting her to visit your home.

Dear Sultan,
Take my cordial love. Your letter is to hand. I am glad to learn that you are all well. Listen, I have
already heard from a friend of ours that you not do not read newspapers. It is a great mistake. You
are a student of class twelve. You know that we live in an age of science and technology but if we
remain ignorant of the incidents happening in our country as well as in the world, we will be proved
unfit for the world.
So, I advise you to read newspapers daily in order to be acquainted with the current affairs of the
world. By reading newspaper, you can be able to know new scientific invention, economic
development and political situation of our country. Without this kind of knowledge, you cannot
cope with others. Articles and features on culture, literature, politics, sports, trade and commerce
etc. will widen your outlook, remove narrowness of the mind and enrich your thought.
So, do not forget to read newspapers daily. I am pretty well and your other friends too are
well. Convey my best compliments to your mother and father and love to Sumi.

52. Write a letter to your friend describing a football match.
Dear friend ,
I hope you are well by the grace of the Almighty. I am well too. Please convey my regards to your
parents. It’s been long since I received your last letter. So I have thought of writing this letter.
Recently, I got the opportunity to witness a football match between Donbosco School, Guwahati
and Christ Jyoti School, Nagaon at Nurul Amin Stadium in Nagaon town. Both the teams were
equally strong. The referee blew the whistle at 11 a.m. sharp and the match started. In the first half
Donbosco School dominated. They could easily penetrate the defence of the opposition team but
could score only a goal because of the extraordinary performance of the referee of Christ Jyoti
School. In the second half, Christ Jyoti School played aggressively. They scored a goal just before
the final blow of whistle. Now the match became drawn and had to be settled with a tie-breaker. In
the tie-breaker, the Donbosco School team took the lead and won the match. The match was
really exciting.

54. Write an e-mail about the importance of planting more trees.
Dear friend,
How are you? I am well. In your last letter you wanted to know my Global Village. I am going to tell
you about tree plantation. Tree plantation means planting tree in large number. Trees are very
important to us in many ways. We cannot think of our existence without trees. Trees cover a great
deal of our food deficiency by providing fruits and vitamins. They supply timber for various uses.
Trees prevent soil erosion. Many kinds of medicines are prepared form leaves, roots and barks of
trees. Above all, they help us to keep ecological balance supplying oxygen. Generally trees are
planted in July and August. They can be planted in rood sides and in all educational institution. But
our trees and forests are not sufficient in proportion to our total land area. To preserve our
environment we should plant more and more trees. Government should encourage the people for
plantation by various media.No more today. Take care of yourself. With the best regard to your
parents.

My dear Father, Yesterday I received your letter asking about the results of my annual examination

be glad to learn that I have stood third in the examination. I have obtained letter marks in
mathematics, science, and English. My total marks are 768. My teachers are very satisfied with the
results. Here my friends and relatives have congratulated me on my good position. I send you a

57. Write a letter to your younger brother about the necessity of learning English.
My dear Xyz,
At first you take my love. I hope you are well. I am also well. I am very happy to know that you
have done well in the Annual examination. But I am very sorry to know that you have not done well
in English. You are very weak in English. English is an international language. It is a rich language
of the world. It is needed in all spheres of life. English is needed for all kinds of jobs. In order to
have a job in an office, bank or any organization you must have proper knowledge in English. If
you want to get higher education, you must know English properly. Without knowing English you
will not be able to communicate with the foreigners. It is impossible to be a good doctor or
engineer without knowing proper English. I hope now you will understand the usefulness of
learning English.
No more today. More when we shall meet. Convey my best regards to the parents and love for the
youngers.

Dear Y,
I received your letter yesterday. In your letter, you wanted to know about the natural beauty of

longest sea beach of the world, the biggest mangrove forest, eye catching tea garden of sylhet,
Maynamati, Bagerhat, Mohastangar of Bogra etc are famous tourist place in Bangladesh. But
there are many other attractive places here which people know a little. Shusong Durgapur of
Birishiri is one of the place. It is under Netrokona district. If you go to Kuakata, another sea beach
in our country, you will be charmed. From this place you can enjoy the Sun rise as well as Sun set.
It is impossible to describe a country in such a short letter. I am inviting you to pay a visit to my
beloved country.

speaking English. If you follow my advice you must improve your speaking English.
No more today give my salaam to your parents and love to the youngers.

Dear Alan,
How are you? Hope this letter finds you in the best of health and happiness. After coming to the

and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise'. So please try to sleep early and get up
early in the morning and study. You should also make it a habit to go to school in time. I have read
the lives of great men and I noticed that punctuality is very important to be successful in life. I
advise you to read some stories of great men and learn this value and put it into practice. It will be
very helpful for you in future.

62. A letter to Your Brother Advising Him to Avoid video games.
Dear,
I was very unhappy and full of grief to read the letter of your class teacher who informed that you
have started playing videos games. Your class teacher has made a very strong complaint against
you and this is really shocking news as it was not expected of you. It is very shocking to know that
you have started bunking classes to play videos games. If this tendency continues, the day may
not be very far when you will start gambling. A recent review of studies on this issue shows that
video games and game apps affect our brains and can literally shape their structure as well as
affecting our behaviour. Video games had the strongest impact on those brain regions responsible
for attention and visualisation.
I, therefore, advise you to stop playing video games. I hope that you will not give me a chance to
receive the same complaint against you.
With best regards,
Your loving brother

know that I have got G.P.A. 5.00 in half yearly examination. I am sure now you will be proud of me
if I can do better in the annual examination. I have completed my revision of English, Bengali,
Mathematics and other subjects. Do pray that I can keep your head high by the grace of Allah.

one day’s outing to Mahasthangarh. It was May 20, 2019, when we started for our visit. Historians
say that Mahasthangarh was the site of Pundranagar, the oldest city of Bangladesh. There are
some elevated places near Mahasthangarh. These places are known as ‘Vitas’ Kundas”Ghous’
and ‘Dhaps’. One part of the dried river is known as the ghat of Kankabati. There is a museum at
Mahasthangarh. Some images, dice, ornaments, and pots excavated from Mahasthangarh
attracted me most. We saw all these relics of the past and learned a lot of things about ours.

66. Write a letter to your friend to invite him for the exhibition in which you have
participated
Dear XYZ
I hope this letter finds you well.
Firstly, the reason I am writing this letter is to share a good news with you. Last month, in my
school, a photography event held where more than 100 people have participated. As you know
about my passion for photography, hence, I have also shared one of the photos from my
collection. Fortunately, among such talented people, I have managed to bag the first prize and
couldn't resist to share my happiness with you. However, if you can recall, the photo I have clicked
of two school going children, when we have been to Chittagong two months back. The same
photograph I had sent for the competition and it was admired by many judges. Moreover, they
have provided special comments that the candid capture of children's expression reveals their
internal feelings, therefore, it was considered as one of the best photo among many. Now the best
part is, my award winning photo is being sent to one of the national exhibition in Dhaka. Thus, I am
requesting and inviting you to join me for this very proud moment of my life. I wish you would be
able to come for this event to make it more special for me.
I look forward to seeing you soon here.
Best regards,

Subject: Prayer for permission to open a relief camp in the college campus.
Dear Sir,
We have the honour to draw your kind attention to the fact that we, the students of your college,
have taken decision to open a relief camp in the college campus for helping the flood affected
people. We all know that the recent flood has caused a great damage to the people and wealth of
this locality. Most of the people have been rendered homeless, and they have taken shelter on the
different roads of different areas. Their miseries know no bounds. We are trying our best to collect
food and clothes from the people of safe areas. The local commissioner is also patronizing our
efforts.
Under the above circumstances, we pray and hope that your honour would be kind enough to permit
us to open a relief camp in the college ground so that we can distribute our collected relief goods to
the affected people properly.
Yours sincerely –
70. An email/letter to the mayor of CTG City Corporation for establishing a Children’s park.
The mayor
CTG City Corporation Sub: Children's Park in our Area
Dear Sir:
I, a resident of Model Town Extension, on behalf of the residents of the area, write to your esteemed
self to request you to construct a Children's Park in our area. These parks have become
indispensable necessities in the current times. Ever increasing pollution, contracting open space
due to urbanization and industrialization, increasing traffic on roads, etc. all have contributed to the
deterioration of environment and human health. And absence of open spaces in the modern
colonies, townships, and residential areas has further aggravated the problem.
The worst lots that have been affected are: the young children, and the old people, besides all age
group people. How unfortunate are the growing children! They don’t have any space left to play and
have fun. The absence of open spaces, grounds, etc. has deprived them of the joys of playing
outdoor games, which has affected their physical growth and development adversely. Those
children who want to play, they play in streets and on roads; this has caused unwanted accidents
many times. The elderly and the aged are far worse off. They have no place where they can go and
sit peacefully! Keeping so many benefits in mind, and for the welfare of our children, the old, and
people, I appeal to you to construct a park in our area as well other parts of the city. We shall be
grateful.
Yours truly,
Alan
71. Write a letter to your younger brother advising him how he can improve his health/keep
good health.
Dear Nabil,
I am pained to learn from father’s letter that your health is growing from bad to worse day by day.
He has expressed great anxiety about your health. You must be very careful about your health.
In order to improve your health you must obey the laws of health. In the first place you must take
light food. Never over eat yourself. You must not drink water with your food. Take your evening meal
two or three hours before going to bed. Secondly, you must take exercise, take healthy foods
moderately, and drink pure water and milk daily. Similarly, you have to brush your teeth and take a
bath daily because bad teeth bring on indigestion. Fourthly, you have to go to bed early and get up
early. At the same rate, you should avoid over work because it is harmful for health. At last, you
should give up smoking. If you observe these rules, your health will improve in a short time.
Now I hope you will try your best to maintain the rules and regulations to make you healthy and
wealthy.

72. Write a Letter to Your Friend Describing the Picnic You Have Enjoyed Recently
Dear Liza
I received your letter yesterday. In it you have expressed your inability to join us in the picnic. You
also wanted to know my experience in the picnic. Dear Moon, what a pleasure it would have been
if you were in the midst of us! Really, we missed you very much. Anyhow here is a short
description of the same.
We selected Sonargaon for the picnic spot. It is some twenty miles of Dhaka. We were about thirty
five in number including one of our teachers. We reached there by bus at about 9 am with all
necessary utensils and materials. After having reached there, we finished our breakfast by 9.30
am. We did not take any cook with us. Our Mathematics teacher, Mr. Anwar Hossain has a
reputation as an expert in cooking. He helped us in cooking.
At about 2 pm the lunch was ready. By this time all of us became hungry. So, we all of us took our
lunch with full appetite. After lunch, we went out for sightseeing. You know Sonargaon is a place of
historical interest. It was once the capital of Bengal. The museum of Sonargaon charmed us most.
We started for home at 5 pm after taking our tea.

Dear Mother,
How are you? I think you are fine. Mom and dad you both used to tell me to make my bed when I
wake up and to do a bit of dusting everyday. Today I would say something about the importance of
keeping the environment clean. Actually environment is a place where humans as well as plants
and animals live. Keeping it clean and neat is our responsibility. It is necessary to keep our
environment clean because we get fresh air, reduce pollution etc. An unclean environment leads to
a bad condition of a society, arrival of diseases and many more. So, we should keep our environment
clean and green for a smell-free, disease-free live. By implementing (বোস্তবোেি) on it we can reduce
pollution, get fresh air, live peaceful life without any problems. It is also important to keep your house
and surroundings clean. We must also keep out dresses organized, clean and well pressed.

description of it.
I spent the vacation doing quite a number of things. I took a short training on computer. Then I
went to my village home. I visited the houses of friends, relatives and neighbors. They were very
glad to see me and entertained me with seasonal fruits and cakes. I was happy to receive their
entertainment. In the afternoon, I walked in the open field and by the side of the river. I arranged a
literacy program for the illiterate elderly people of my village. They came to our house almost
every day in the evening and I taught them how to read and write.
That is all for today. Convey my regards to your parents and love to all.

80. Write a letter to your friend describing Him,her the importance of natural cures.
Dear friend,
Hope you are doing good. I came to write this letter to tell you about the importance of natural
cures in life. Natural cures are made of natural things like Herbs and plants. People around the
world returning to natural cures more and more .Natural cures are also known as herbal cures.
Natural or Herbal remedies are nothing new. They are used by people in different ages.
Grandmas give children honey or tulsi leaves to eat if they catch cold. Elderly people may put
some turmeric , marigold , or aloe vera on minor cut or wound. People of the rural areas normally
use garlic , neem or turmeric to cure skin problems. They have learnt through experience that
these remedies work well. Moreover they are easy to get, cheap and most often they have no side
effects. In the absence of a doctor people use these sorts of natural cures.
So, we should all acknowledge this blessing and use the natural cures in appropriate amount.
With best wishes,

station.
Dear XYZ,
How are you doing? I hope your well. I am doing well too. I wanted to tell you all about my
photography trip this week. Remember i told you in my previous letter, that this weekend my
school will be taking us to historical places for our "inspirational conduct", so this included various
monuments and even a railway station. You won’t believe that this was the best experience on a
trip, which I have ever had. The train station is said to be one of the oldest ones in town, along
with beautiful crafts on the walls, inside. I even visited the railway officers cabin and we took
pictures with the grand clock on the station. I loved its rusty color, and the fact that it created a
particular noise, after every hour, sort of reminded me of the grandfather clock your grandmother
used to have. I was thinking that maybe we could ask our parents to take us there next time, and
we could even travel by train.
Looking forward to your thoughts on this plan, write soon.
Take care
82. Write a letter to your cousin/mother telling him about your recovery from illness.
Dear XYZ,
Thank you so much for your encouraging and inspiring get well note. With God’s grace and
blessings of well-wishers, I am better now. As per the doctors, there has been a significant
improvement in my health. I was not aware of the dangerous effects of jaundice. Though it was not
severe, still it has affected my health badly. Recovery will take a long time. So I have been advised
for bed rest at least a week. I was hospitalized for five days and was attended by doctors
frequently. I was on a drip because of the severe weakness. Now, I am home and feeling better.
Doctor advise me to avoid spicy and oily food for a few more weeks. My physical activity is also
restricted as it would exert me. At home, it is difficult to kill time but I access the internet and keep
chatting with my friends. I am catching up on movies too. My friends keep visiting me. They are
good support. Rest is ok more when we meet. I will wait for an early reply. Please convey my best
regards to your elders and love to younger. You take care and keep in touch.

83. Write a letter to your friend about use of mobile phone.
Dear Brother,
I hope this letter finds you in fine fettle. I am writing this letter to advise you regarding your
addiction to mobile phone which his making you irresponsible, negligent, and careless. I have
been told that mobile phone has become a source of major distractions for you. You use it all the
time. You are thoughtlessly and uselessly wasting your precious time on useless sites. Even I
have been tracking you for a few days. Most of the time you are online! I was shocked to see you
online last night at 2:00 a.m.! What were you doing?
Mobile can’t be blamed for the wastage of time, money, and energy. The only thing wrong is your
recklessness and ignorance. Mobile is a wonderful technological tool that gives you instant access
to infinite knowledge; a tool to communicate with your parents, friends, mentors and relatives.
Page | 139
Those youngsters, who are using it for entertainment purposes, are disoriented and foolish. I don’t
want you to be in this category. I want you to use mobile for self-improvement and enrichment. I
hope you will keep the family principles intact and use mobile phone wisely. Give regards to
mother and dad.

of life. Learning computer benefits us in many ways. At present in every country almost everything
is performed by computer. So, if you know how to operate a computer, you can employ very easily.
All the govt. offices, mills and factories, health sectors and Medicare, business and transactions,
communications- everything is fully dependent on computer for accomplishing various tasks. Even
computer is helping to identify a disease and conquer to space. So, without learning computer, you
will not understand the mechanism of the present age of science and technology. So, the importance
of learning computer is immense in our practical life.
No more today, convey my best regards to your parents and love to the Youngers.

My dear friend,
Take my cordial love at the outset of the letter. Your sweet note is just at my hand. I am glad to
know that you are very well. You have wanted to know how I spend my leisure time. I am writing in
answer to your letter.
Leisure time is the only free time when I do not have any work to do. It is the sweetest moment
when I pass my time in joy and merriment. In my leisure time I go for travel for one or two days for
recreation. I also enjoy my leisure time by reading story books, flying kites, playing cricket and
watching cartoon on television. Sometimes I spend my leisure time drawing and painting. I love
music too. When it is very hot, sometimes I go swimming in the river. I help my mother in my
leisure time as well. Thus I enjoy my leisure time very much.
No more today. Convey my best regards to your parents and love to Rehnaj, your younger sister.

Attentive to His Studies/ in his way of life.
Dear Sohag,
It was quite long since we had received any letter from you. Yesterday your progress report of
Second Semester Examination from your principal reached to us. We have become very shocked
to know from the report that you have failed almost in all subjects. We had although a high opinion
about you, but you disappointed us greatly. I am sure that you keep bad company and while away
your time.
Page | 141
You should remember that time once gone can never be got back and bad habit once formed is
not easy to give up. I would like to remind you that we belong to a middle class family. Our
educational expenses are borne with great difficulty. We have to stand on our own feet.
We must not do anything which pains our parents. You should know that only the fittest survive.
Time is not long ahead when you will have to earn. Without proper education you cannot expect to
get a good job. Student life is the proper time to get proper education. So, you must be sincere
and regular to your studies. Wishing you all the best.
Yours ever,

93. Letter/email to Your Younger Brother About the Importance of Value of
Time/management in life.
Dear XYZ,
Today I am writing this letter in order to give you some valuable suggestions regarding value of time
so that you can finish your work in time. If you turn the pages of history it will be clear to you that the
great men of the world made the best use of time. Had they not been cautious about the value of
time, they could not become great in life.
So, it is high time you made the best use of your time. If you put off the things which you can do
today, you will never be able to do it. Many lost things can be regained but time once lost, is lost
forever, it can never be regained. Besides, the value of time cannot be measured.
It is known to you that youth is said to be the seed time of life. If you sow good seeds in youth, you
will be able to reap a good harvest. Those who idle away their time suffer in the long run. No more
today. I believe you will give importance on value of time.
Yours ever,
XYZ

How are you? I hope you are well. Your letter is in my hand. I received it a few minutes ago. In
your letter, you wanted to know about my favourite sport. Here is a short reply of your letter:
Different people like different types of games and sports. My favourite sport is football. You know
it’s a popular game all over the world. I like it for two reasons. Firstly, it gives me a great pleasure
to play and watch. It is a very exciting game. Rather it teaches us to obey rules and be disciplined.
Secondly, it is helpful for our physical fitness. It’s a good exercise. Almost every day I play football
in our school compound. If you play football regularly, you will remain healthy and physical growth
will be ensured. You know World Cup Football is arranged after every four year. My favourite team
is Germany.
No more today. Take care of you. And don’t forget to write me about your favourite sport. Waiting
for your reply.

My dear XYZ,
Yesterday I received a letter from mother that you are not keeping good health these days. I am
much worried about you. It is good to pay attention to studies but excess of everything is bad. Good
health is precious treasure which one should not lose.
You must take interest in school games and participate in the sports. Games will keep you fresh,
smart and fit. If you can spare time, you must go for evening walk. It is a light exercise and gives
Page | 142
you energy to do more work. Therefore, I advise you to spare some games and sports. These will
make you energetic and fit. I hope you will surely try to improve your health, so that father and
mother are not worried about you.

The Editor,
The Daily star,
Chittagong.
Dear Sir,
Our city is in the grip of traffic jams. We see traffic jams everywhere. They waste a lot of time, a lot
of fuel, and cause delays.
The traffic signals are turned off especially during rush hours. Everybody is suffering from these
traffic jams. It has now come to light that these traffic jams are created for various reasons. Some
mafias and police are behind all this. People are looted during this traffic jams.
The only victims are the people, who not only waste a lot of their time, fuel and lose money to
snatchers, looters, etc. The concerned authorities should look into the matter and try to end all
traffic jams in the city.

100. A letter about the bad effects of taking junk food : Write a letter to your friend / younger
brother telling him the danger / Curse / bad effects of taking junk food.
My dear XYZ,
I am very glad to receive your sweet note. Thanks a lot for this. Hope you are well with your
studies. I am also well with my studies. Now I am telling you about the danger/curse of taking junk
food. Junk food is attractive only for its pungent taste but it has no food value at all. It is very
harmful to health. It often contains a high amount of animal fat and sugar. Junk food turns our
body into fatty tissue which damages our health. The junk food containing high amount of sugar
causes diabetics, heart-attack, high blood pressure and damages teeth and skin. You must eat
homemade foods and avoid junk foods in order to maintain sound health. I do hope that you must
follow my advice. No more today. With my best wishes to you.
Yours truly,
XYZ.

your brothers and sisters are good students. They have been doing well in their studies. We
expected much from you. But you are disappointing all of us. You know, youth is the golden period
of life. It is time to shape one’s life as one intends. Bad always attracts us much. We should
always be careful pf it. Because it will be very, difficult for you to stop your relation from them if
once you associate them. I hope you will not spoil your future.
I wish your good health and best luck

Radharaman Dutta, Hason Raja, Khursheed Nurali (Sheerazi), Ramesh Shill and Abbas Uddin. Baul

cancer. This pernicious habit causes the growth of tumour and heart diseases. Smoking increases blood
pressure, which is the root of many diseases. In short, this bad habit of smoking often leads to premature
death. You must be aware of these facts and must give up this harmful habit immediately. Please promise to
give up the habit for the sake of your health.

avoiding crowded places, keeping distance from others, washing hands with soap and water often and for at

that the canal near the market and the Boy’s and Girl’s high schools has become a problem to the
people of the locality. It has become wide and deep. So it is not possible to cross it on foot even in
the dry season. Hundreds of people including boys and girls have to cross the canal daily for different
purpose. Girl students can’t attend school for several months. So construction of a bridge on this
canal has become urgent.
In view of the above facts, we pray and hope that you would kindly look into the matter and take
immediate steps to construct a bridge over the canal.
Yours faithfully,

To
The headmaster
X School
Subject: Application for setting up a computer club.
Sir,
We, the students of your school, have the honor to state that ours is a reputed and an older school
in the city. But it is a matter of great regret that there is no computer club in our school. We live in
the age of science. And we can not think of science without computer. It is of great use in all sectors
of life, especially to the students. The students of this school are much interested in acquiring
knowledge about computer. If a computer club is set up in our school, many students will learn how
to operate it. In their practical life they will be able to make the best use of this knowledge.
We, therefore, earnestly request you to set up a computer club in our school and oblige thereby.
Sincerely yours –

40. Application for repairing damaged roads.
The Chairman
Khilbarirteck Union Council
Vatara, Dhaka.
Subject: Application for repairing damaged roads.
Dear Sir,
With due respect we like to draw your kind attention that we are the inhabitants of Khilbarirteck
under Vatara thana in Dhaka district. There are three roads in our locality by which we
communicate with Dhaka city. But it is a matter of great regret that all these three roads are
damaged badly. No cars and vehicles as well as non- engine vehicles can run on the road. The
roads are very busy. Most of the people of this area are service holders. They cannot go to their
workplaces in time; students cannot go to their educational institutions timely. Very often accidents
take places for the holes and invalid carpeting on the road. So we feel badly in need of repairing
all the three roads immediately.
We, therefore, request you to take immediate steps to repair the roads so that we can make our
communication smooth.
Yours Faithfully

We the students of your school beg to draw your kind attention to the fact that although we have

reference books are quite insufficient to meet our demand. So necessary steps should be taken to
buy some books for our school library.

some more books for our library as soon as possible and oblige there by.

To
The Headmaster,
X School.
Subject: Request for the arrangement of a reading room in our school library.
Sir,
We like to expose here that we are the regular students of your famous school. Our school is
adorned with many modern facilities. It is true that there is a library in our school but there is no
arrangement of a reading room in the library. As a result, we cannot study fairly and freely. Truely
speaking, our library work is heavily hampered for want of a suitable reading room.
It is, therefore, hoped that you would be gracious enough to take an immediate step for the
arrangement of a reading room in our school library and help us to study and research for our overall
development and upliftment.

Dear Sir,
We have the honour to draw your kind attention to the fact that the students of our college have

rainy day and it has been raining torrentially since morning. Students who live in distant areas have
failed to come to the college because of transport problem. So, the attendance of the students is
very poor today.
In view of the reasons mentioned above, we hope that your honour would be kind enough to suspend
the classes on the ground of rainy day.

We, the students of the X School under your Union, beg to inform you that we have long been
suffering for want of pure drinking water. There is only one tube-well for about two thousand

ponds and canals. This has caused many dangerous diseases like cholera, diarrhea and other
water borne diseases.
We, therefore, pray and hope that you would be king enough to pass necessary order to sanction
a few deep tube-wells and oblige thereby.

To,
The Sub Engineer,
X State Water Supply Board,
X – 400 021.
Subject: Complaint letter regarding irregular water supply.
Respected Sir,
We are totally five hundred families residing in our locality. We are facing a severe problem of growing
instances of insufficient water supply for the last three months in our locality. We have only 50 taps for our
five hundred families, it means on an average a tap for every 10 families, which is already insufficient. But
during the last three months the problem has increased to a lot due to less supply of water. Because of less
supply of water there is a growing instance of disputes among our local people. Many times we have to
return home with our empty vessels.
We have already given many complaints to our local authority. They are always giving us empty promises
and doing nothing. So kindly am requesting you to look into this matter personally. If you do the needful
then I shall be very much thankful to you.
Thanking You,
Yours Faithfully,

To
The Principal
Subject: Prayer for setting up an English Language Club.
Dear Sir,
We have the honour to draw your kind attention to the fact that we the students of your college feel the dire
need to set up an English Language Club in our college. We all know that English is the strongest means of
verbal and written communication all over the world and we cannot do without it for a single day. But our
present examination system of English helps only to develop our reading and writing skills. It does not help
us to improve our overall proficiency in English. As a result, we are lagging behind. So, we feel an enormous
necessity to have an English Language Club in our college.
We, therefore, pray and hope that you would be kind enough to pass necessary orders to set up an English
Language Club in our college in order to fulfill our long-cherished desire.
Yours sincerely -
