A Garden
Gardening is one kind of hobby. It gives much pleasure and entertainment. When
we pass our leisure, we generally work in the garden. It is an expression of refreshment
and purity. My hobby is gardening. My garden is near our house. I prepared it
very carefully. It is a fertile land and I cultivated it with proper manure so that I
could grow up different flowers. I have protected it with fence. I fenced it all around
very carefully so that no animal could enter it. There are different kinds of flowers in
it. Among them rose, tube-rose, grass flowers and the liking. The flowers make my
garden look wonderful. We can make garland for our festivals and occasions with
these flowers. People come to me for flowers for their common uses. I fulfill their
need. Infact, my garden is a great source of pleasure and recreation to me.
Your first day at school.
The day a student goes to school for the first time is called first day at school. My
first day at school is a memorable day for me. It is a red-letter day for me. When my
parents declared the news of my schooling, I became very much excited and
started leaping and dancing in great joy. Then the expected day came. I went to every
member of our family and received blessings from all. I was in a very happy and
cheerful mood. I went to school for the first time when I was only seven years old.
My father took me to school for the first time. I was little nervous at the beginning. I
remember it well. I was then a little boy. I was very interested in going to school
with riding rickshaw accompanied by my father. First I met with Headmaster at
school. My heart beat fast. But this smiling face and gentle words put me at ease.
He asked me my name. I answered politely. The headmaster was very pleased with
my response. When I was sent to class. My class teacher took me to the classroom
and introduced to my classmates. I met with the teachers and students who behaved
well with me. My classmates were very much friendly and soon they accepted
me as one of their bosom friend. They received me very cordially and made
friendship with me, within a short time. The school broke up at 2 pm. My father
again came and took me home. I left the school with a cheerful mind. That day was
very remarkable in my life.
Traffic Jam
Traffic jam is a situation in where vehicles cannot move freely and traffic comes to
a standstill. It occurs almost all the district towns where a lot of vehicles play everyday.
Especially it occurs near bus stand, railway crossing, turn of a road, at the
junction of various roads or near a market. It occurs mainly in the morning and afternoon
on working days when everyday body tries to attend office in short time or
returns home as early as possible. The indiscriminate playing of vehicles like rickshaws,
bus, scroters etc and haphazard parking of vehicles and small shops in the
footpaths are the main reason of traffic jam. Traffic jam causes untold sufferings to
people. Students cannot reach schools in time. It kills our time and lessons our
working hours. It causes great sufferings to the ambulance carrying dying patients
and the fire brigade vehicles. The increasing of traffic jam hampers our economy.
So well spacious roads should be constructed. One-way movement of vehicles
should be introduced. The driver should be trained in order to cope with the other
developed nations. After doing all these things we can hope to have a good traffic
system for our easy and comfortable movement.
Environment Pollution
All the ingredients that we have around us are jointly known as environment. Environment
pollution implies the contamination of the surroundings. Any abnormal
change of environment in chemical, physical and biological characteristics in environment
is called environment pollution. Environment is the whole system of our
existence. Our environment is becoming polluted everyday for several reasons. Human
beings mainly pollute environment. Massive industrialization is an important
cause of environment. Smoke from motor vehicles also pollutes environment. Serious
environment pollution occurs in big cities because buses, trucks and cars play
in the streets everyday and emit smoke. Mills and factories also pollute water. They
throw their waste products into rivers and canals. By burning wood and melting
pitch for road construction people make more smoke and pollute air. We use pesticide
in our crop fields. It also pollutes our environment. Indiscriminate cutting of
trees has also turned unbalanced environment. The ecological balance is being
lost as a result of environment pollution. If we all desire to live a healthy and tranquillized
life, we should make our environment clean and free from pollution. We
should be all whole-heartedly in keeping our environment fit for habitation.
Internet
Internet is a computerized network of information. It is the greatest invention in the
communication system. It is the worldwide network of computer. Its uses and
functions are smooth, easy and rapid. A students who knows just the keys of computer,
can communicate anywhere he wishes. Internet communication is now the
latest communication in the world. A computer and a telephone connection are required
to get an Internet connection. There are two types of Internet such as Dial up
and Broad Band. Internet has great usefulness. To get appropriate information a
person has to communicate in the appropriate address. One can also go to a
search engine like Yahoo, Goggle for finding particular page or a piece of information.
A search engine is a system through which you can search for information on
Web pages containing that information. By using Internet students can go through
several books from the libraries without going there. They can seek information regarding
admission to different foreign universities. But it is a matter to sorrow that
many people of Bangladesh do not have still access to Internet because it is still
costly and not easily available.
My last day at school
Every student has to study in different institutions in different spheres of life. Accordingly
I left my school for higher studies. Before leaving school, I want to recall
some events concerning my school. My last day at school is a memorable day to
me. The students of our school bade us farewell on this day. The hall room was
nicely decorated. Separate arrangement was made for us to sit. Our respected
teachers took their seat on this dais. One of our teachers called out our names. We
went up the dais one by one and the students gave us flowers and the headmaster
gave the copy of “YOU WILL WIN” By Shib Kahake. With the gift we took our seats.
Students delivered their short speech and begged forgiveness for our misdeed if
any. Our teachers gave us valuable advice. The function being over, we were entertained
with refreshment. Then left the school compound. Standing on the road I
looked back home with a heavy heart.
The Postman
The man who delivers letters, parcels, and money orders from door to door is a
postman. A postman is very punctual and dutiful. The works of a postman begins
in the morning. He wears a different dress and it is a khaki uniform. The postman
carries across his shoulders a bag containing letters, parcels and money orders
and other postal articles. He is very useful to the people and his work is very important
and responsible. He goes from one house to another to deliver letters
money orders and other postal articles to the proper addresses. A postman can
make us both happy and unhappy. When he brings letters of good news, we become
happy. He renders and great service to the society. He is such a great friend
to us that everybody we expect his nock on the door. He behaves amiably with all.
The economic condition of a postman is very miserable. Though he works very
hard he gets a very small salary. With it, he cannot maintain his family decently. So
he leads a miserable life. No doubt he serves the society as well as the country
greatly in the field of postal communication. He should be given good salary so
that he can leads a better life and service us well.
A Home I live in
A home is a place where a man lives with his near and dear ones. Everybody is
closely related with all the things around it. My home is my heaven. Home is the
place that I like the most. My home is a one storied building consisting of five
rooms. It is situated under the shade of the trees. It stands in the midst of beauties
of nature. The green trees also surround it. My home is not only airy but also well
lighted. So, even in the midst of scorching heat it remains cools and comfortable.
There is small flower garden in front of my home. I spend leisure hours there. My
home faces the south. Open fresh gentle breeze is flowing through the open window
of my home. After the toils of the day, I get exhausted and grow mad to get
back home. My home is a sort of fascination to me. Staying away from home for
few days I feel homesick. To me my home is really the sweetest place on the earth.
I am proud of my sweet little home.
Tree plantation
Tree plantation means the process of planting trees .Now a days it has become a
social movement in our country. Trees are a great boon to us. They are related with
our life and well-being. The boons and benefits derived from them are too many to
count. Trees provide us shelter, food, fruits, firewood, timber and oxygen. We get vitamins
from fruits. They prevent soil erosion, air pollution and floods. They also effectively
prevent the spread of the desert and landslides. They are essential to
maintain ecological balance and preservation of fauna. We all should plant and
grow more and more trees and protect them. Social forestry should be taken on a
large scale and trees should be grown all around where in space. Trees add to the
beauty and quality of our life and living. We have to plant trees in every bare space
of land, the sea beaches, the low –lying areas, the road sides should be brought
under deforestation. We cannot think our existence without trees. People should
grow more and more trees to improve our adverse situation. The result of tree plantation
will be positive for human being in every sphere of life.
Mobile Phone
Mobile phone is an important medium of communication and correspondence,
which helps intercommunication with the people in the shortest possible time. The
use of mobile phone is more convenient than telephone call. The man who sends
the message will have to pay the bill but the receiver can respond to the message
without any payment.specially businessmen and the serviceman are much benefited
through the use of mobile phone. It is useful for the doctor, businessman and
high officials. But it is also useful for the people who is shopping and supplying in
valuable information in his house. Sometimes, the criminals are using this phone to
maintain their society. By using the Mobile phone, the terrorists and criminals carry
out their evil designs and commit crimes with much difficulty. In spite of this there
is no better alternative to mobile phone .To make the latest civilization for communication
and correspondence
Dowry system
Dowry means property or money brought by a bride to her husband when they get
married .Now a days the system of giving and taking dowry in marriage is more
prevalent in Bangladesh. In Bangladesh this is seen to be major problem. In the
Bangladeshi society this system is treated as a serious problem. Wife is inhumanly
tortured and killed by her husband for dowry. Most of the parents are poor. They
cannot keep up their word they give before marrying off their daughters. This leads
to chaos and hellish unhappiness. However, the first thing to be done to stop this
malpractice is to grow awareness among all. Movement against dowry system
should declare right now. We cannot get rid of this social vice by taking social reformative
works urgently.

,people get the disease. Arsenic is a fatal poison. It has been deposited in that layer
of the soil from here our tube-wells pump out water. As a result in most areas of
Bangladesh tube-well water in contaminated with arsenic. Arsenic pollution has
made the scarcity of drinking water acute though our country is water-rich. The
irony of fate is that “water, water everywhere nor a drop to drink.” It is a hard nut to
crack. Our ignorant people are drinking arsenic polluted water from tube wells and
are human being affected by arsenicosis. Those who do not eat fish and vegetables
are easily affected. Arsenic is such a poison that is damages all the vital organs ore
after another resulting in the subsequent death o the sufferer. Arsenicosis has no
remedy nor has it any antidote. Hence arsenic pollution demands utmost attention.
An affected person should drink arsenic free water and take vitamins A,C,E to come
round. Arsenic polluted water has been ter5med as the killing water. There has
been world wide awareness of this problem. Aids from different corners are reaching.
Deep tube wells rainwater, reservoirs, surface water treatment, etc may be the
pragmatic measures to minimize the problem to a great extent.

Dengue fever is a kind of fatal disease caused by the biting of Aedes mosquitoes. It
was first detected in Bangladesh in 1966. It is a virus-infested disease. There are
four stereotypes of dengue virus, such as DEN-1, DEN-2, DEN-3, DEN-4.DEN-2 and
DEN-3 are more serious. Dengue is one of the prime re-emerging diseases of
Bangladesh. Aedes mosquitoes carry the virus of dengue fever. It breeds in small
pots, jars, dumps and discarded plastic containers and tyros. There are two types
of dengue fever. There are classical dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever.
Dengue Hemorrhagic fever is fatal and it causes death with bleeding. Dengue virus
is originated from Africa. Now it is epidemic in most tropical countries of Asia like
India, Myanmar, Shrilanka, Bangladesh, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia
and Philippines. It transmits the virus when it sucks human blood. Its symptoms
on patient become clear in four to six days. Aedes mosquitoes’ breed stagnant but
clear water of various pots. It lives on blood and aedes female mosquitoes cannot
breed without blood. There is no antidote of dengue virus. With an apprehension of

easier to prevent the disease.
A visit to a palace of historical interest.
Man is not satisfied with what he has seen and known. A visit to a place of historical
interest is really interesting and attractive. Dhaka is a place of historical interest.
If the visit takes place on any place of historical importance, it becomes really
an enjoyable one with educative value. During the last summer vacation I, along
with some of my friends, decided to go to savar to see the National Memorial. Accordingly
we fixed a date and started our journey from Gabtali to savar at 10 p.m.
by bus. We reached savar, near National Memorial just after 45 minute. Actually the
National Memorial at savar is the symbol of the nation’s respect for the martyrs of
the war of liberation. It contains the history of our independence. It is built with
concrete, but made of blood. It stands 150 feet tall, but every marty it stands for
stands so much taller. There is actually a series of 7 towers that rise by stages to a
height of 150 feet. The foundation was laid on the first anniversary of the victory
day. Reaching there we felt a great respect to the freedom fighters who sacrificed
their valuable lives for us. We took some snaps taking the view of the memorial.
However, we visited the place and the surrounding area for about an hour. The most
moving sight of the complex is the several graves of the martyred freedom fighters
just close to the tower. However, we left the place paying our glowing tribute to the
freedom fighters. Through this visit we experienced a lot.
The Greenhosue Effect
Green house effect means gradual warming of the earth’s atmosphere. If the concentration
of green house gases in the atmosphere continues to increase at the
present rate then the green house effect rises in the earth. The global warming is
caused by the accumulation of certain gases, the carbon di-oxide, CFC Methane
and Nitric Acid around the world. The presence of these gases to a large degree is
making the ozone layer of the earth’s atmosphere thinner day by day. At this, the ultra
violet ray of the sun can easily penetrate the atmosphere of the earth. The increasing
numbers of engine vehicles are increasing Carbon di-oxide gas, which is
making hole in the Ozone Layer. There will be a dramatic change in the climate and
topography of the earth. This will reduce our ability to grow food and severely damage
wild life, raise sea levels and thereby submerge the costal areas. There will be
drought through out the world. Many creatures will be on the verge of extinction.
Modern science is helping us to keep peace with congenial atmosphere. We must
follow the guidelines to create better environment and save life on this beautiful
planet.
Exam strategy
Exam strategy means examination skill. When examination approaches, students
begin to plan because 50% chances of success rely on examination skill rather
than subject knowledge. A student should check and double-check the examination
schedule and he should also check what he is allowed or not allowed to take in
with him the day before exam. Budgeting time and avoiding elaborate answers unnecessary
are also part of our exam strategies after getting the questions paper, he
should read it carefully. It is better to read through the whole question paper before
starting to write. It is again useful to spend time at least five minutes each question
thinking about and planning answers. At first glance the questions may seem difficult,
but it becomes gradually easier. A student should attempt all the questions to
get good marks. It is also useful to underline the key words in the questions to help
the examiner to know what he is required to do. He should also check back to make
sure whether he is writing what he should write. He should always remember that
his handwriting should be clear and legible. If one follows the exam tips on the
exam day, he or she wins his or her chances of success.
A School Magazine
A school magazine is a kind of periodical publication, which contains the writings
and contributions the students and the teachers in a school. Every school publishes
a school magazine every year. At first, a committee is formed for publishing
the magazine. Then the committee asks the learners and the teachers to send their
writings. The editor then corrects the writings. They select the publishable writings.
The school magazine is generally open to all teachers and famous person outside
the school is allowed to write in it. It also contains messages from the headmaster,
assistant headmaster and the chairman of the school managing committee. There
are short stories, poems, essays, verses, jokes, riddles and other writings related to
studies, sports and cultural activities of the school. It often contains album of photography.

stimulates their imagination and develops their creative powers. It is a mirror of the
school. It adds to the glory and honor of the school.

begs alms by spreading the bowl towards the passer-by. If he gets any alms, he
becomes happy and prays for the person who has given him alms. All the streets
beggar have their own way of lie and mode of approaching for alms. He tries his
best to draw the sympathy of the passers-by with his peculiar voice. He often recites
from the holy Quran and tries to draw other’s attention. Sometimes he uses
his tricks to earn more. He leads a very deplorable life. He lives from hands to
mouth. He can not give good education to his children. He leads a life of sufferings
and pains. He is born unsung, remain unsung and die unsung.We should mercy by
giving alms to a street beggar who is unable to work and consequently fails to
maintain himself or his family.
A School Library.
A library is a building or room where huge numbers of books of various kinds are
kept for the readers who come to satisfy their thirst for knowledge. Newspapers etc
are kept for people to read, study or borrow. We have a large and spacious library in
our school. It is well furnished having a lot of tables and benches to study. In our
school library the books in our library are organized into categories of classes and
then arranged alphabetically within this class. Each category is assigned its own
special number within that numbers and every book in the category is assigned its
own special number within that number range. The textbooks and reference books
the students can make note sitting in the peaceful and queit atmosphere of the library.
They can also take the reference book in their home being the member of the
library. I think our school, library helps us a lot to acquire knowledge vastly and to
broaden our outlook. So it is our duty to go to the library regularly.
A Winter Morning
A winter morning is a time when it falls cold and gets biting cold. This morning is
very beneficial to the protection and preservation of man’s health. The mists gather
in drops upon the leaves of trees or the blades of grass. They look like pearls as
they glitter in the rays of the morning sun. A winter morning is sometimes heinous
to the poor, as they have nothing to wear for protecting biting cold. Winter morning
is a curse for old and poor people and they are obedient to bask in the sun in this
morning. A winter morning presents us different sights of including basking, getting
sunlight to warm body and what not. Village children hardly have warm clothes. So
they make fire with straw, sit around and enjoy the heat. Apart from this, a winter
morning presents us sweet, juice of the date, fresh vegetables and fresh natural
foods. People who have morning work get up early in the morning, as they are interested
to enjoy morning best on the bed in the lap of warm cloths and wrapper.
Really the diversity that we observe in the winter morning sometimes stirs us or
sometimes elates us.
A Railway Station.
A railway station is place where trains stop for the passengers to get into and get
off from the train. It is a busy place. It becomes very busy because of the arrival of
trains. Here the passengers are found to stand in a queue to collect their tickets in
front of the ticket counter. A big station is always crowded with passengers, hawkers,
and posters. There are bookstalls, book-sellers and waiting rooms in such a
stations. Vendors shout their trade cries. When a train reaches at the station, the
passengers hurry to get off from the train. At the same time passengers waiting for
the train want to get into the train. As a result, a collision of two groups of passengers
takes place. The whistling sound of the departing train creates a situation of
vacuum in the minds of the passengers. When the train leaves the station, it becomes
deserted and buzzing sound of the passengers ends. A railway station is often
a den for the anti-social elements. It is a suitable place for the beggars to carry
on their trade. It is an unhygienic place too. The authority should look into it.
A Farmer/ The life of a farmer
A farmer is a man who leads his family by working hard in the agricultural farms or
cultivating lands. Bangladesh is an agricultural country. So farmers are the backbone
of the country. He is most common figure in our country. Basically he is the
main force of economy. He is called the father of food production. But they are not
evaluated. Without his role our country cannot go ahead. The farmers live in the village.
Some farmers have their own lands. But some others are landless. They cultivate
the land of others. They have to work hard from morning till night even in sun
and rain to earn their livelihood. He works in the field all day long and procedures
different kinds of crops. The economic condition of a farmer is miserable. Although
he works hard, he does not get enough crops to eat. He lives a very low-standard
life. He lives in the thatched houses. When a farmer produces good harvest, he enjoys
a happy life with his family .His face beams with joy. But when he cannot produce
good harvest, he enjoys a miserable life He has to starve sometimes. He even
cannot get minimum medical care. Due to his illiteracy, he suffers from various diseases.
The joys of a farmer know no bound when he gets bumpers crops. To enlighten
him with the modern ideas. Adult education programme for the illiterate
farmers can be introduced in the Radio and television.
A Moonlit Night
A moonlit night in which the full noon shines in its entire glory in the sky is called a
moonlit night. It is really a night of dream and enjoyment. In the autumn the sky remains
cloudless and the moon looks like a big silver disc in the sky. The silvery
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. The natural beauty of a moonlit night can better be realized than
described. People feel great joy. Children play and run about. Men and women go
from one house to another. Women can make their babies sleep singing the songs
of stars and moon. Lower animals take the moonlit for day and start roaming
about. 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. In addition, we forget our animosity with others. We make a congregation
and chat in different subjects with others. The moonlit night reminds us the mystery
of creation of Allah. We can evaluate the moonlit night as offering a charming
sight to all living beings.
A Rainy Day
A rainy day is a day when it rains ceaselessly all day long during the rainy season.
It is called a drizzling day. The sky is overcast with patches 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 know 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 boy in listening to music, watching videocassettes, 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 grow, flowers bloom and nature looks fresh and beautiful.
However, a rainy day is welcomed after the baking heat of summer.
May day /A Mournful Day
May day refers to a sad incident that took place in the month of May in 1886 in the
American city of Chicago. May day means first May of the year, which is recognized
as the international workers who laid down their lives for the interest of the workers
in Chicago in May 1886. The history is that during those days the working people
were suffering from over work. From the beginning of the industrial Revolution people
in factories have worked very long, shifts lasting up to fourteen or even more
hours a day. They could not protest for fear of losing job. However, they protested
against the injustice done to them. And on May 3,1886 police fired into a protestant
crowed in Chicago. The street of Chicago were smeared with the warm blood of
workers. Many people were injured and one died. All the privilege workers enjoy to
day such as a minimum wage, safety laws and eight-hours workday were the outcome
of the sacrifices of the workers on May 3,1886. These are the rights they have
achieved by their struggle. This day reminds the working class people that the
workers will continue to be exploited until they stand up and speak and speak out
to gain much better working condition, better pay and standard of life. On this day
the working classes of the world become united irrespective of castes, creeds and
nationalities. This is the glory as well as sorrow. So black flags are flown atop the
offices and black badges are worn by the workers to symbolize their heartfelt grief
for their fellow workers. Thus May Day has been a symbol of unity for the workers
all over the world.
Importance of Sports
Sports are a very good physical exercise and no one can keep a good health without
it. Among various types of sports, outdoor sports like cricket and football are
very popular. Nowadays these have become very popular form of entertainment.
Sports require quick movement of the limbs. This helps blood circulation and
makes the body strong and healthy. Sports have certain rules which the participants
have to obey. Thus through games and sports people learn discipline which
is very important in practical life. Thus sports are beneficial in many different ways.
I am a student and I like to take part in sports. Among all the sports, I like cricket
best. I play cricket every afternoon. Games and sports teach us to accept both defeat
and victory with equanimity of mind. Sports give us opportunities to meet
many people. The sports venue becomes a meeting place of people from different
countries. When people of different nations get together on the occasion of an international
sporting events, they come closer to each other, sharing views, opinions
and friendship. So sports strengthen international brotherhood.

Study Tour
Study tour is a part and parcel of our educational life. Seeing of something with our
own eyes fulfills our practical knowledge. Study tour gives us a better knowledge of
different places of the world. It widens the horizon of our mind and broadens our
outlook. During the last summer vacation I and some of my classmates planned to
go to a study tour to Cox’s Bazar. Some of the students, along with I, of our class
went there. We went there with two of our class teachers. We saw natural sights,
vast expanse of water of the Bay, waves of the Bay, many ships and steamers with
goods. Cox’s Bazar is famous for its natural beauties. We gathered practical knowledge
observing those things of cox’s Bazar. We passed there four days. We bathed
in the water of the Bay, made a lot of fun and took snaps of us with different interesting
things. We ate rice with special fish of the Bay. The free movement in that
place gave us much pleasure. Actually the tour was very important for taking fresh
air and enjoyment and gathering practical knowledge.

International Womens’ Day
The idea of an international women’s day was first put forward at the turn of the
20th century. In 1910 the first international women’s conference was held in
Copenhagen by the Second International and an international women’s day was
established by German Socialist Clara Zetkin. In 1911, International Women’s Day
was marked by more than a million people in Austria, Denmark, Germany and
Switzerland on March 19. In 1913, International Women’s Day was transferred to
March 8 and this day has remained the global date for International Women’s Day
ever since. In 1975, the United Nations started celebrating March 8 as International
Women’s Day. The UN secretary general, Ban Ki-moon, in his message, said ‘This
year on International Women’s Day, we convert our outrage into action. We declare
that we will prosecute crimes against women — and never allow women to be subjected
to punishments for the abuses they have suffered.’ the UN Women executive
director, Michelle Bachelet, called for action on ending violence against women. In
her message for the day, Bachelet called on the international community to deliver
on their commitments and to protect women’s right to live free of violence. Iterating
that a change is possible and is happening in many parts of the world already,
Bachelet called on all governments to accelerate progress and concrete policy actions
to end violence against women. ‘This year on International Women’s Day, we
say enough is enough.’ ‘Discrimination and violence against women and girls has
no place in the 21st century. It is time for governments to keep their promises and
protect human rights in line with the international conventions and agreements that
they signed onto.

we should know how to behave with our friends. Firstly, we have to be sincere
about what we say to our friends. Then we should not quarrel with them and we
should help our friends in all respects. We can help them with their homework, play
with them and listen to them when they talk. We should also be kind and gentle
with everyone, even if they annoy us. If our friends have small brothers and sisters,
we have to be nice to them and should not argue over silly, pointless things. Next,
we should invite our friends to our house and should also visit their houses from
time to time. After that, we should stand by our friends in their weal and woe. We
should respect our friends’ parents and love their brothers and sisters. Finally, we
must be very careful in choosing friends. We should always remember them. Our

home, wash hands and face and eat my meal. Then I play with my friends in the
fields. Just at sunset I return home and begin to prepare my lessons. I eat my supper

A book fair is of recent origin. Various kinds of books are displayed and sold in a
book fair. It gives an opportunity to buy books at a cheap rate. Recently I visited a
book fair at Bangla Academy premises. Bangla Academy authorities observe the
fair in memory of the language martyrs. When I entered the mela premises I was
really pleased at the calm and quiet environment. I saw books lovers were humming
in the stalls without any trouble. According to my list I collected some books
without any hazard. I met some famous (eminent) writers of our country. A book
fair spreads the message that books are our best friends and companions, enlarge
our vision and make our life more meaningful.
Favorite Game
I am always fond of games and sports. Football is my favourite game. It is a very
common and popular game in Bangladesh. It is not an expensive and time killing
game. The game is played between two teams. Each groups has eleven players. I
play football in my school field with my friends in the afternoon. Football is a game
of great interest and enjoyment. It keeps the players fit and active. It teaches us
discipline and unity. It is a game full of thrills and exciting to both the players and
the spectators. So it is my favourite game.

Leisure time means time free from work or other activities. Leisure refreshes our
mind and makes us happy. A man should enjoy leisure time. Otherwise life will be
meaningless. Routine work makes life boring and monotonous. Leisure is essential
to enjoy life. Enjoying leisure time varies from person to person. Someone spends
his leisure by swimming and walking. Some students enjoy their leisure time by
drawing and painting. Someone loves to sing, gardening and traveling. It helps us
to see the unseen and to know the unknown.
5.Food Habit
Good health means soundness of body and mind. Health is the root of all happiness.
To be healthy food is very essential. Healthy food means a good mix of foods.
We should eat plenty of breads, cereals, rice, noodles, potatoes etc. Also fresh fruits
and vegetables are essential for health. Milk cheese and some other dairy products
also construct our body. Meat, fish, beans, nuts and egg are also important for
health but we should not eat them too much. Breakfast is very important for everyone.
So we can keep good health by eating a balanced diet.
