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 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 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 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 May3,1886. 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.
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 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.
