Lured by the charms of developed countries bright boys & girls leave their poor native lands & go abroad & after finishing their higher studies some of them often settle there. Often export doctors, scientists & engineers go abroad & work there for fat salaries & better service conditions. This migration of skilled & experienced people from one country to another is called brain drain. Owing to this brain drain the home country becomes loser as it is deprived of the services of its skilled people. But if they work there for a limited period & send money to their native land then the country is benefited by getting foreign exchange. And if the intelligent & skilled people leave the country for good then the poor native land becomes poorer. But disregarding the lure of high salary & better living conditions some people stay home & work for the betterment of the motherland. They are the real patriots who can make a town or a country worth livin...

Television is an audio visual device. It’s one of the most wonderful inventions of modern science. J.L. Beyard invented it. It’s based on concurrent photography & sound recording. It functions in various ways as a source of entertainment. By means of a television set we can hear all kinds of news & views about domestic & international affairs. At the same time we can see the people involved with them. It is a means of education as well as recreation.

So, we should watch decent programs in order to get maximum benefit from it.

I don’t support unfair means in the examination. Adopting unfair means in the examination is an evil practice & it degrades the moral values of the students. There are many reasons for adopting unfair means. The number of efficient teachers is not sufficient to teach a large number of students. Besides, students don’t prepare the lessons, they waste time in gossiping & keep away from classrooms. Many students plunge in politics mongering. They want only to get a certificate or a degree by hook or by crook. Recently the authorities have taken some measures to prevent unfair means. The whole system of examination has changed. Now students are to go to other institutions for their centers. Teachers & students are given threat to be punished severely for taking to unfair means. Now, students seem to be motivated to learn. Teachers are free from anxiety & the examinations are being held in a sound atmosphere free from unfair means. I think these preventive measures...

A girl who has the mental & moral training about the life & the world in called the educated girl. An educated girl usually becomes married after the completion of her institutional study. By this time she becomes groomed & mature. In most cases an educated girl gets married with an educated man. Usually their families are small & peaceful. An educated girl herself can earn for her family. In the event of any crisis she can maintain herself & her children. She is aware of health care, hygiene & sanitation. So there is the high probability of survival for herself & her children. An educated girl knows the nutritional values of different foods. They could ensure nutrition by making a diet plan according to the age & weight of the family members. If there are educated mothers in all families, there will be an educated, peaceful, prosperous nation. 

War & peace are contradictory to each other. War is a curse, it destroy the normal atmosphere of the world & brings unbeatable pain, suffering & misery in human life. It destroys on only human life but also animals & makes a country economically paralyzed. We know the miserable condition of Hiroshima & Nagasaki during the Second World War. In the war, a huge number of people died & many were bodily crippled, yet their next generation is not released from that dangerous attack. The war of the Middle East shows the fearful disorder & displeasure in the world. The destructive & detrimental effects of the war remind us of the slogan from the global peace. The example of the United States of America is appropriate here. The USA is the super power in all respects in the world. That is why she is torturing the powerless countries of the world on this plea or that & applying her wicked policy. The UN should be impartial & should take effective steps aga...

Terrorism is a burning issue nowadays & the effects of terrorism are very fearful & dangerous. It’s born of the conflict of & greed for power, racial clash & the use of supremacy. Now command clash is very conspicuous. After the attack on the American World Trade Center & Pentagon, a group Al-Quaida is treated as a terrorist group all over the world. Several kinds of terrorism are occurring in the world. These are plane hijacking, acid throwing, the use of suicidal bomb, abduction etc. The terrorists make their network internationally so that they can make violence at any time & any place of the world. Their aim is to make bloody clashes. It creates a heinous impression in the eyes of the common folk. The terrorists are destroying communal harmony, equality, fraternity & brotherhood. So, we want peace in the world & not terrorism.

The grading system has of late been introduced in the SSC & HSC Examinations in place of the age old marking system. According to the old system the candidates were declared to have passed or failed in the examination & the successful students were placed in the first, second & third division according to the percentage of marks obtained by them. And they were declared to have secured the first, second, third place & son on according to the total marks. The unsuccessful candidates were required to take the whole exam again even if they failed in one subject only. But in the grading system the candidates are placed in A+, A, A-, B, C, D & F grade in each subject & there is no first, second or first place. Candidates failed in one or more subjects have to take the exam in these subjects only in the next year. The new system thus releases the students from the labor of taking exams in all subjects if they fail in one subject only as it was in the old system. And t...
