We all know that the people of the world

We all know that the people of the world  do not have enough to eat. But are we aware of the fact that they do not have enough to drink either? This will sound very strange because three-fourths of the earth surface is covered with water. But about ninety-seven per cent of it is salty water. So, man can drink only three percent of the total water on the earth’s surface. This water is fresh and it comes from various sources. But a part of this water is not usable because it is in the form of ice-bergs and glaciers. Even worse, some of it is too polluter to be drunk.

However, this small amount of fresh water, which is constantly being replenished by rainfall, is serving our purpose just somehow. But our need for water is increasing  almost everyday. If  we take immediate steps to deal with this problem, we shall be able to avoid a severe worldwide water shortage in the near future. With the expansion of  industries, our need for ordinary water is also increasing rapidly. One example will make the whole thing clear. It takes about 91,000  liters of water to produce a single ton of steel.

Wasting of precious water must be stopped. One of the first ways to achieve it is to develop ways of re-using water Experiments have already been done in this field, but only on a small scale. The systems that have been worked out resemble those used in a space-craft.

Raiyan has always been keen to visit interesting places. He goes to various places every year with his parents. This year, he has decided to avail himself of a couple of  tours offered by the Parjatan Corporation to spots in and around Dhaka. With this end in view. Raiyan went to the office of  Parjatan Corporation and collected all the information regarding the trip. He come to know about the cost and the schedules of the trips. He also knew about the food and entertainment facilities offered by the organigers.

Only three percent of the surface water isdrinkable. But a part of it is not usable because of its form of ice-bergs  and glaciers. Besides, some of this water is so polluted that we cannot drink it. So, to meet the increasing demand of fresh water and to face a worldwide water crisis, we must come forward. We must stop wastage of water and develop ways of rusing water.

Everyone lives by selling something.

It has been said that everyone lives by selling something. In the light of the statement, teachers live by selling knowledge, philosophers by selling wisdom and priests by selling spiritual skills have to be paid for in the same way that goods are paid for at a shop. Everyone has something to sell.

Tramps seem to be the only exception to this general rule. A tramp is a person with no fixed home or occupation and he always wanders from place to place. Beggars almost sell themselves as human beings to arouse the pity of passers-by. But real tramps are not bggars. They have nothing to sell and require nothing from others. In seeking independence, they do not sacrifice their human dignity.

A tramp may ask you for money, but he will never ask you to feel sorry for him. He has deliberately chosen to lead the life he leads and is fully aware of the consequences. He may never be sure where the next meal is coming from, but he is free from the thousands of anxieties which afflict other people. His few material possessins make it possible for him to move from place to place with ease.

By having to sleep in the open sky he gets far closer to the world of nature than most of us ever do. He may hunt, beg, or steal occasionally to keep him free. We often speak of tramps with contempt and put them in the same class as beggars, but how many of us can honestly say that we have not felt a little envious of their simple way of  life and their freedom from care.

Tramps seem to be different from all other people who earn their living because they have nothing to sell and require nothing from others. Tramps are different from beggars because beggars ask for pity to others but tramps do not sacrifice their human dignity.

Tramps can move from place to place with eace because they do not have many things to carry. A tramp depends upon his few material possessions to keep himself alive. Some of us may feel a little envious of  trams for their simple way of  life and their freedom from care.

Tramps are the persons who have no fixed home or occupation. They just wander from one place ot another. They are free from the anxiety and all sorts of worry. They sleep under the open sky which is very close to the nature. But, we  often put them in the same class as beggars which we should not do any more.

Adoption of unfair means in the examination.

Adoption of  unfair means in the examination is not a new phenomenon in our country. It is one of the signs of other degenerating conditions existing in out society. By adopting unfair means a student frustrates the very purpose of the examination. Unfair means in examination does not simply mean copying from books etc. Inside the hall. It includes any sort of malpractice in or outside the hall to succeed in the examination. Scholars say the effective education system is mainly responsible for this. Merely committing to memory and vomiting it in the examination halls cannot determine the merit of a student. So, the very system of education should be changed. A modern and mass-oriented education should be introduced. The syllabus should be up to the sbility of  the students. Education authorities should see that proper education is imparted to the students. Unfairmeans in and outside the hall must be checked with appropriateness and strictness. Above all the government, the teachers, the guardians, the students, the intellectuals, the politicians and all the conscious sections of the country should come forward to tackle the problem.

Raju cannot do well in his examination approaches. On the other hand, Rimon always makes a good result because he makes notes himself, memorises them and writes them again and again. He has good command over English. He always tries to understand what he reads. Rahu goes to Rimon to seek his advice how to make a good result in the examination.

Unfair means includes all sorts of malpractices in and outside the examination hall. It is an old phenomenon which frustrated the very purpose of examination and shows degenerating condition. It is due to the defective education system. So, a modern people oriented education system should be introduced. besides, a concerted effort would be able to remove the problem of unfair means in the exams.
