Zafi : Yes, this mobile phone has become a very instrumental device in our daily life. We cannot do without
it for a single day.

life easy and comfortable in many ways.

Zafi : Besides, it has made our global communication dynamic and faster.
Zarif : But we must admit that it has some disadvantages too.

especially hazardous for the children and pregnant women.
Zarif : Yes, during conversation, the blood brain barrier may get damaged, the blood pressure may get high and
the red blood cells may get affected.

Zafi : Besides, it is doing a lot of harms to the teenagers. They can easily indulge in many obscene programmes
also. In this way it is spreading pornography.

season and out of season.

alarming.

Zarif : The Department of Agriculture and Forestry organizes this Tree Fair every year in all towns and cities on
the occasion of Tree Plantation Week.

Zafi : Why do they organise this Tree Fair?

Zarif : It appears strange to me that you are not yet fully aware of the importance of tree plantation.

Zafi : Right you are. Please tell me about the importance of tree plantation. I want to know about it in detail.
Zarif : Trees are our best friends. Trees give us shade and shelter. We cannot think of our existence without trees.
They are a great source of our food, vitamins, and furniture.

Zafi : But do you notice that many unscrupulous people are cutting down trees at random? What might be its
consequence?
Zarif : If they cut down trees indiscriminately, the country will one day turn into a desert. The temperature will
rise and it will cause greenhouse effect.

Zafi : I think this would not be harmful if people planted more trees after cutting trees. But they seem to be very
indifferent to planting trees.
Zarif : You are right. To save life and maintain the ecological balance of the environment, there is no alternative
to tree plantation.

Zafi : Now I understand why tree plantation is so important. I think people of all walks of life should come
forward to make tree plantation programme a success.
Zarif : Absolutely, let us make aware of our friends and motivate them to plant trees more and more to make our
country a land of greenery.

1. Write an Email to your father informing your result.

Dear Father,
I have just received your email asking about the results of my annual examination of class VIII. I have been
awaiting the results and just today they have been out.

Father, you all will be glad to learn that I have stood third in the examination. I have obtained letter marks in
mathematics, science, and English. My total marks are 768. My teachers are very satisfied with the results.
Here my friends and relatives have congratulated me on my good position. I send you a copy of my mark-
sheet.

But I have the determination to do much better the next year. For this, I will leave no stone unturned.

I am well here. I have decided to visit you during my Ramadan holidays. Convey my best regards to mother.

Your loving son

2. Write an Email to your friend congratulating him on his brilliant success in the examination.
To : salib<salib332@gmail.com>
Subject : Congratulation on brilliant success
Dear Salib
I have just heard of your result of the Final Examination. I would like to convey my heartiest congratulations
on your brilliant success. To secure GPA-5 is not a matter of joke. All your friends and relatives must be proud
that you have won such distinction. We are especially proud that you performed so well even though you had
fallen ill just before the examination.

I am sure this result will encourage you to do better in your higher studies. If you come out successfully of the
HSC Examination, I hope you will be able to choose either Medical or Engineering course. If it is Computer
Science, you should prefer BUET to SUET.

I think you are being flooded with letters and emails from your friends and relatives. No more today. More
when we meet. I wish you a more glorious future.

Yours ever,
Shrijon

3. Write an Email to your brother advising him to be regular in studies.

To : salib<salib332@gmail.com>
Subject : About being regular in studies
Dear Salib
Yesterday I received alarming news from mother that you are not regular in your studies. She also wrote that
you are very much attracted to games and sports and you like the company of wicked boys. I am worried to
learn that you like to remain outside home most of the time and even stay outside late at night. All these are
very bad. You are our youngest brother and as such you are dearest to us all. You are gifted with good parts
and we cannot allow you to spoil good parts by falling in evil company.

Let me sound a note of warning to you. You must have fallen on evil ways. I am sure that you are moving about
with bad companions. In any case you should give up bad company. I am writing to your principal to place you
under the special charge of a professor. Please come to your sense, try to correct yourself and be regular in your
studies. I hope that these few words of advice will put you on the right path and you will apply yourself whole-
heartedly to your studies.

Your elder brother
