Rafi  :  Will it help me to become punctual (mgqwbô) in class? Zafi   :  If you get up early in the morning, you will get much time to learn your lessons, have breakfast, complete your homework, have bath and meal and then start for school and reach ahead of time.

I simply know that it is good for health. Would you tell me about it in detail? Zihad   : Of course, physical exercise helps us to grow properly. It eases (mnR K‡i) the movement of the limbs (A½-cÖZ½) of our body. It also makes us physically strong and fit for work. Riad     : Really! Any more benefits?

Farzana   : But we keep constant contact (wbqwgZ †hvMv‡hvM) over the mobile phone. Sweety    : Yes, this mobile phone has become a very important factor in our life.

As Bagerhat is a historical (HwZnvwmK) place, we choose it for the picnic. Our bus left Jessore for Bagerhat at 8 am. At noon we reached our destination (MšÍe¨). After taking refreshment, we visited the Mazar of Khan Jahan Ali. He is the founder (cÖwZôvZv) of the Bagerhat city. The lake near the Mazar and natural beauty charmed us very much. We became pleased to see the crocodiles in the lake. Then, we returned to our picnic spot and had our meals. We held a cultural programme at the spot. After that we went to visit the historical Shatgombuj Masjid. The architectural beauty (¯’vcZ¨‰kjx) of the Masjid enchanted (gy» K‡iwQj) us. In the evening, we left for Jessore.

It shows the TV watching statistics on American Children’s lives. Now, describe the chart in your own words. Having television US homes TV viewing statistics on children aged 3 to 5 Time spent statistics before television box Time spent statistics in school Statistics of being aggressive 96% 29% 22% 11% 50% Ans. This chart shows the TV watching statistics on American children’s lives. The chart indicates the influence (cÖfve) too. The percentage of keeping TVs in the US home is 96. It refers (eySvq) that almost all the family of America have at least one TV set. There is an alarming (fqven) report that the children aged 3–5 are being addicted (Avm³) to TV shows. It is 29% in terms of rate. That means they watch TV on an average fifty hours every week. There are two alarming reports. One is 22% and the other is 11%. To clear it (Av‡iv mnR K‡i ej‡j) these same kids pass more than 22,000 hours before the TV box while they spend only 11,000 hours in school. Most researches (M‡elYv) on the effects of TV on children center round so much violence (msNl©) on TV. This makes them aggressive. The current rate of being aggressive (AvµgYvZ¥K) shown in the chart is 50 percent. That means half of the total kids in the US have possibility of becoming violent due to the assault (AvMÖvmb) of television. Look at the following chart. Read it carefully and then write a paragraph on the ILO using information given in this chart.         Ans. ILO is the acronym (K‡qKUv k‡ãi cÖ_g Aÿi wb‡q MwVZ kã) of International Labour Organisation. It helps labour class (kªwgK †kªwY) people for a long term basis all over the world. Labour class is always maltreated (`ye©¨envi Kiv nq) in the developing countries like ours. ILO defends (iÿv K‡i) basic trade union rights of the labourers. By raising awareness (m‡PZbZv ˆZixi gva¨‡g) about the basic human rights and trade union rights, ILO has been able to improve the position of the labourers. Freedom of association is not allowed (¯^xK…Z bq) by mills and factories owners. There were no working conditions particularly in many third world countries like Bangladesh. ILO has been able to ensure (wbwðZ Ki‡Z) working standard worldwide as it has formulated (ˆZix K‡i‡Q) committee on freedom of association. The workers can bargain (`i KlvKwl Kiv) now on their wages and benefits. It has been possible for ILO. It receives complaint (Awf‡hvM) of different trade unions as well as other workers and attempts to mitigate (cÖkgb/`~i Ki‡Z) the problems of the workers regarding their works, wages and working places. The graph below shows the arrival of tourists from different countries in Bangladesh from 2004 to 2008. Describe the chart in 150 words. You should highlight and summarise the information given in the chart.                                                                                                                              2004              2005                2006              2007               2008         Ans. The column chart set in the question paper (cÖkœc‡Î cÖ`Ë/†`Iqv) indicates the arrival (AvMgb) of tourists from different countries in our beloved (wcÖq) Bangladesh in between 2004 to 2008. From the chart we notice (jÿ Kwi) that from Australia, the tourists number who visited (cwi`k©b K‡i‡Qb) Bangladesh is 2668 in 2004, 2091 in 2005, 2377 in 2006, 2722 in 2007 and 5409 in 2008 respectively (h_vµ‡g). From the United Kingdom (UK), the number is 19605, 22510, 29106, 34087 and 28905 in the years 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 respectively. If we compare (Zzjbv Kwi) UK to other countries, we will see that it’s the top country from where majority (AwaKvsk) of the tourists visit Bangladesh and the total number is 134213. The second lowest (wØZxq me©wbgœ) position is held by the oceanian country Australia. Her number of tourists is 13283. The first lowest country is France whose (hvi) tourists is 11934. From the chart we find (†`L‡Z cvB) the USA as the second highest from where (†hLvb †_‡K) 59851 tourists visit Bangladesh from 2004 to 2008. Now, the only country left (ev`/euvKx) is Japan. From Japan, the number of tourists was almost same (cÖvq GKB) in the five consecutive (ch©vqµwgK) years except (Qvov/e¨ZxZ) in 2006. In this year the number of visitors was 8000. Thus we see how the ratio (AbycvZ/nvi) of tourists is increased and decreased over the years by different countries. Look at the chart below. Try to describe/analyze the chart in your own words. The horizontal numeral numbers are based on million (approximate). The vertical numbers are for years. On the basis of the chart below, write a comparative article on mobile users, non mobile users and internet users.         Ans. The chart above exhibits (†`Lvq) a comparative (Zzjbvg~jK) position of the three groups – mobile users, internet users and non mobile users at all. According to the chart more than 200 million people used mobile in 2011 and 40 million people used internet whereas the number of non-mobile users was nearly (cÖvq) 190 million. In 2012 the number of mobile users had increased considerably (D‡jøL‡hvM¨ nv‡i) while the users of internet reached (†cuŠ‡QwQj) to nearly 80 million. Moreover the number of non-mobile users went down (†b‡g wM‡qwQj) from 180 million to 120 million. In 2013, the number of mobile users rose (e„w× †c‡qwQj) to 470 million from previously (c~e©eZ©x/Av‡Mi) 390 million which is a great sign (eo jÿY) of increasing number of mobile phone users. Internet users also increased but it was not as much as mobile users.

There lived two rats in a house. They were so happy. The led their lives by stealing food from the house. One day they together stole a piece of cake. They could not divide it between themes. They started to quarrel over their share. As they could not take decision, they went to a monkey for right division of their bread. They asked the monkey to divide the piece of bread equally. The monkey was very clever. He assured them that he would divide the bread equally between them but they must give him some. The rats agreed. The monkey began to divide the piece of bread. As the pieces were not equal, one side became lighter than other. To make two sides equal, the monkey ate a bit off a portion from the heavier side and weighed again. But this time the lighter side became heavier and he again ate a portion from this heavier part. The monkey continued this trick many times. The rats could realize their foolishness and lost the cake.    You will have heard the name of Bayazid Bostami. He loved his mother very much. His devotion to his mother is well known to all.

His devotion to his mother is well known to all. One night Bayazid was studying while his mother was sleeping. Suddenly he heard that his mother was uttering, “water, water”. Bayazid went to his mother but found her sleeping. Then he went to the pitcher for water. Unfortunately, the pitcher was totally empty. It was deep dark night. But his love for mother removed all his fear. He took the pitcher and went outside to bring water. The source of water was not near. He had to go to a spring far away from his house. After about two hours he returned home with water. This time his mother was in deep sleep. He was standing beside his mother’s bed holding the glass of water. The night passed and his mother was surprised to see Bayazid standing with a glass of water her bed. She prayed to Allah for Bayazid. Almighty Allah granted her prayer. Bayazid Bostami became famous all over the world. Allah made him one of his greatest devotees.                                                                                Once upon a time there was a shepherd in a village.

He used to tend a flock of sheep in a nearby field. There was a thick forest next to the field. The shepherd was a great liar. He always got pleasure to cheat people with his lies. While tending sheep in the field, he often cried out, “Wolf, Wolf, help, help!” Hearing his shouting the farmers usually left their work and rushed to him in order to save him. But the boy laughed and got pleasure thinking that the farmers were foolish. One day a wolf really came. The boy now cried aloud to attract the farmers. He cried and cried for help. No farmer responded to his crying because they thought that the shepherd was making fun with them. So, they did not come to help the boy. The wolf found the

Ans.                                                        Our National Flag A flag represents a country over the world. As we are a free nation, we have a glorious (PgrKvi/†MŠi‡ev¾j) national flag. It represents our freedom and sovereignty (mve©‡fŠgZ¡). But, we have not got our national flag overnight (ivZvivwZ). There is a long history of achieving our national flag. Before 26 March 1971, Bangladesh was not an independent country. She was a part of Pakistan and called East Pakistan then. We were deprived (ewÂZ) of our due rights (b¨vh¨ AwaKvi). So, it was inevitable (Awbevh©) to fight against Pakistan. Our freedom fighters flied the national flag and went for fight against the oppressive (AZ¨vPvix) rulers. After a freedom fight of nine months, Bangladesh wins victory by a great sacrifice. Then our national flag flies in the free sky of Bangladesh. Thus, we have got our national flag. Our national flag has a fixed ratio (AbycvZ) of length and width which is 10:6. Our flag is the combination (wgkªY) of two colours-green and red. The green colour symbolizes (cÖZxKvwqZ K‡i/wb‡`©k K‡i) evergreen beauty of our homeland while the red colour symbolizes blood given by our freedom fighters. We use our national flag when our educational institutions start every day. Different Govt. and non-Govt. offices also hoist (D‡Ëvjb K‡i) the national flag. We also hoist our flag in different national days and traditional occasions of Bangladesh. But it is kept half-mast (Aa©bwgZ) on any national or international mourning days (†kvK w`emmg~n). We are proud of our national flag. It is the source of our spirit (mvnwmKZv), hope and inspiration. It must be kept at its sublime (†MŠiegq/gwngvwš^Z) position at any cost.   Write a paragraph on ‘The Importance of Learning English’ by answering the following questions. a) Why is English called an International Language? b) Why should we learn English? c) What do you think about the necessity of grammar in learning English? d) How does your English textbook help you learn English? e) How does your English help you in managing a job? Ans.                                        The Importance of Learning English The importance of English cannot be described in words (fvlvq). It is the language used all over the world. That means it is an international language. We need English for our higher education. All books on higher education are written in English. These books help us to acquire (AR©‡b) knowledge. Besides the knowledge of modern science and technology is available in English. Today more than 80% of all the information in the world’s computers is in English. So if we do not know English, we will not be able to keep pace with (Zvj wgwj‡q Pj‡Z) the present world. So, we should be very careful to learn English from now on. Our English textbook can help a lot in this regard. Because, it has been developed to attain competency (mÿgZv AR©‡b) in all four language skills, i.e. listening, speaking, reading and writing. We also cannot deny the necessity of grammar in learning English as it helps us to use the language accurately. Today organizations need employees (Kg©Pvixe„›`) who can speak and write a standard form of English. So it helps us to get a good job and to earn more money.
