society where information will be readily available on line and where all
possible tasks of the government, semi-government and also private spheres will

In our recent political history, corruption has become a
buzzword due to its all-pervasive existence in all our public sectors and even
in private organizations.Corruptionhas always been a constant phenomenon
in our country.
But recent drives against corruption and a huge public
conscience and consciousness against it have given it a new momentum. .Bangladeshhas
been branded as the most corrupt country in the world for consecutive four
years by Transparency International. So, both local and international pressure
and call have created an urgency to
fight and curb corruption inBangladesh.
A long line of vehicles stands
still for a moment blocking the normal flow of life. This is what we actually
call “Traffic Jam”. Traffic jam is one of the most irritating problems in Bangladesh.
It mainly occurs near bus stands, railway crossing, a big market or at the turn
of a road. The reckless playing of vehicles, hapazard parking, narrowness of
the roads and overtaking tendency are the main causes of traffic jam. Weak
traffic control system is also largely responsible for this.
A
rainy day is a day when it rains almost all day long. The sky often remains
cloudy and it is dark all around. The roads become muddy and slippery. One can
not go out without an umbrella. Sometimes, the roads and fields go under water
and people have to walk their homes or working places. Open manhole is very
dangerous on a rainy day because one can not know where it is under water.
Children can not attend theie school or go out to play. They feel very happy and
they pass the day by playing indoor games like hide and seek, ludo, chess,
carom etc.
A
science fair is a display of scientific instruments. Recently I paid a visit to
a science fair held in our school premises and learnt many new ideas. Some reputed
schools in K.C.C. took part in this science fair with their new discoveries.
They displayed hand-made models of ships, motorcars, aeroplenes, trains, radios,
televesions, and computers. The fair lastedfor two days only. Local people also
visited the fair and praised the young scientists for their uncommon performances.
Several pavilion’s were ereated to display the scientific tools in an attractive
manner.
Mankind are
facing some problems of health and life in present day world. Arsenic is ane of
them. Arsenic contamination in ground water is a serious poison. And poisoning
by arsenic is a slow process. Tube-well water contains arsenic. The use of such
water is dangerous. If people drink such water, they get diseases. Health
experts are worried about this problem. They say that people should not drink
the water which contains arsenic. Rain
water and surface water in ponds and rivers is a source of arsenic free water. People
should know how to make water arsenic free through sterilisation by boiling and
other methods.
Education is a light to which everybody has the
equal right. Allah has created both man and women equally and has not drawn any
distinct distinction between them. He has bestowed them with equal facilities.
So there should be no difference of opinion regarding imparting education to
women.
A good mother can produce a good citizen. In order
to have good citizen, female education is a must.
Female education is not a new thing in our country.
Islam has encouraged education and training to women folk. The prophet of Islam
has made education compulsory for both men and women. Once Nepoleon said, “Give
me a good mother and I will give you a good citizen”. A good mother obviously
means an educated mother. So it needs no telling the importance of female
education.
The most significant event
for Bangladesh in the last century has
been its birth as an independent nation. Prior to that, it experienced British
colonial rule until 1947, followed by an oppressive existence as East Pakistan from 1947 to 1971.
The life of our people has
often been shaped by tragedy. Floods have devastated our land and tidal waves
from the sea have swept away thousands of lives. Poverty has been an
ever-present specter. As a result, nearly seventy percent of the population
suffer from carious degrees of malnutrition. Rapid population growth has added
to this problem. Although the growth rate has slowed down to some extent, the
population has almost doubled since independence.
The last century is over,
but it will not be forgotten. Many events have taken place during these years
that have embellished and enriched human life. There have been significant advances
in scientific achievement and technological development including immense
progress in medical science. Lately, a revolution in information technology has
taken the world by storm.
In ideological terms, the
twentieth century has been marked by the independence of many former European
colonies in Asia, Africa and Latin America. The struggle for democracy in different parts of
the world including Bangladesh has been momentous. It saw
the division of Germany after the second World War,
and its subsequent reunification in the eighties. The process of reunification
evident here has also been echoed in other regions. The century also witnessed
the rise of socialism, and the creation of super powers opposed in ideologies. However,
the end of the cold war and the collapse of socialism have eased the major
powers into a unipolar position.
On the other hand, conflict
has deepened. The world has experienced some of the worst events in history
during this time. Misuse of atomic energy has wreaked destructor. Two World
Wars have recorded the worst sufferings in human history- Hiroshima and Nagasaki bear testimony to this.
Conflict and strife worldwide has increased. It has seen the Vietnam war, the
Gulf War , the war in Lebanon, and in many parts of Africa causing widespread death
and destruction. Terrorism too is sadly on the rise.
Indeed several other things
have also caused endless human misery. Poverty, hunger, malnutrition,
uncontrolled population growth and high mortality rates have been common
features in the poorer countries. Environmental pollution, global warning,
contaminated drinking water and the AIDS epidemic are many of the major
problems that we have inherited from the decades that have gone by. And yet,
despite these dark aspects, the last century will remain memorable in terms of
positive terms of positive human achievement……..
Television channels present
all kinds of programmers. Viewers choose their favorite ones. But the programmers
are often interrupted by advertisements.
These are sponsored by
manufacturers of goods. They produce all kinds of things. These things have to
be sold. The more goods they sell, the more profit they make. But they face
competitions from other manufacturers of the same goods. So in order to attract
customers, they advertise their products on television. This is how they tempt
the buyers. They understand human psychology. If we find goods advertised on
television day after day, it becomes difficult for us to resist the temptation.
Even if we do not need the things, constant advertisements induce us to buy
them.
Advertisement cause
annoyance when they interrupt a favorite programmer. Sometimes they go on for a
long time and we feel like switching off the set. But we do not do that because
we think this one might be the last. When the series of advertisements ends, we
feel relived. However, there are advertisements which are presented in an
attractive manner. They are fascinating. They are a pleasure to watch.
One bad aspect of the advertisements
is that they tend to increase people’s demand for goods whether they need them
or not. Demand for goods puts a strain on our purses. We may not have money to
buy them. But somehow or other we try to manage the money. Sometimes this
forces people to earn money through dishonest means. People are also induced to
buy luxury items---- items they do not really need. The whole society becomes preoccupied
with material things.
However, nothing can prevent
the advertisers from putting advertisement from putting advertisements on television.
The public will have to decide between essential goods and inessential ones. This
is how we can avoid waste. There is a saying: “waste not, want not”
Bonsai is the art of growing trees and other plants into
small containers in such a way that it become the miniature of a real tree. A
bonsai tree may be 10 years old but have a height of one foot only. The art of
Bonsai originated perhaps more than 1000 years ago in China. Early
Japanese aristocrats also showed a fondness for Bonsai and contributed greatly
to its development. Bonsai is different from normal pot-planting as it is
considered an art form. A Bonsai tree is carefully shaped to remain small but
still has the appearance of a large tree. It does not need large pots but small
containers and not much of soil. A Bonsai container has holes in the bottom
which are covered by small nets so that the soil does not flow out with the
water.
The plant
is then taken out of its original pot and one-third of its root is cut off. It
is then tied to the bottom of the pot with the help of wires. Soil is then
spread over it to cover the container, but about an inch of the root is allowed
to stay on the soil to enhance beauty.
The soft branches of the plant are
coiled by wires so that they are compelled to grow the way the planter wants
them to grow. This allows the planter to give the tree a particular shape. A
Bonsai plant is never allowed to grow too high. In fact Bonsai is classified in
two ways- * the style in which the branches are planted and shaped, and * their
sizes. Plants that are below 6 inches are called miniature, 6-12 inches: small,
12-24 inches: medium,and those more than
24 inches are called large. Almost all woody plants can be grown as bonsai. The
art of Bonsai is now quite popular in many places of the world. For some
people, it is not only an interesting pastime but also a moneymaker.

The British have a reputation for
keeping their emotions private and for being reserved in their public behavior.
There are some obvious things that people from overseas notice in British
behavior. For example, on public transport, people do not usually talk to other
passengers. On meeting, people do not embrace and often simply shake hands on a
first introduction. In theatres, concert halls and cinemas, audiences are quite
during performances and reactions are often restrained. None of these behavior traits,
however, need to be interpreted by visitors as unfriendliness and in general,
if a visitor makes the first move to start a conversation, they will find that
British people are friendly and very considerate. On the other hand, some
aspects of British behavior might seem too informal for foreigners. An example
is the informal use of first names among staff holding different status at
work. Although if would be a blasphemy for a student to call his/her teachers
by their first names in Bangladesh,
it is quite common in BritishCollege
and Universities.
Britain
lies in the temperate region. In winter it is very cold and windy. You should
carry warm clothes with you. Moreover, there are a number of significant differences
in norms and behavior. Here are some useful tips for those visiting Britain.
·People in Britain
often socialize at home, but unless you know someone very well it is not usual
to just ‘drop in’ without at least telephoning first to make sure that it is
convenient.
·If you accept an invitation for a
meal in someone’s home, it is regarded as a definite appointment and it would
be considered bad manners not to turn up. If you really do have to cancel an
invitation, do let your hosts know as soon as possible, before they start
making preparations.
·If there are certain foods that
you cannot or do not eat, do let your host know in advance, in order to save embarrassment
in the day.
·Whether you are visiting just for
a meal of for a longer stay, it is customary to take a small gift for your hast-flowers
or chocolates, for example.
·If you stay with a British family,
you should act thoughtfully at all times. Be in time for meals. If you need to
miss a meal let your host know if you are going to be staying out late so that
they won’t worry about you. Offer to help with household chores-your offer will
probably be turned down but will still be appreciated.
So, please come in our country (Britain)
and enjoy your life peacefully and more happily…. Thank you….

At the airport:
At the airport, there are taxis and
aot-rickshaws called babi-taxis, but you have to bargain for the fare. They demand
three or four times more than the usual fare, even more when they see
foreigners, especially Europeans. Taxicab services have been introduced but
many taxis do not use meters and therefore you may be overcharged.
Driving:
It is difficult to drive in Bangladesh
if you have no experience of driving here. Drivers change lanes frequently. As
a foreigner you might find lane-changing without signals quite distressing.
Many people do not follow traffic signals. Rickshaws and babi-taxis move in and
out in zigzag course and try to push through wherever they find some space.
