1. Mujib Borsho
Mujib Borsho has been declared by the government marking the 100th anniversary of the birth of the Father of the nation, Bangabandhu
Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. He was born on 17 March 1920 in the Gopalganj Mohokuma. His father’s name was Sheikh Lutfur Rahman and
mother’s name was Sayera Khatun. He was an intelligent boy from his childhood. He took his primary and secondary education in
Gopalganj. After that, he got admitted to Kolkata Islamic College and achieved a B.A. degree in 1947. The country was then under British
colonial rule and the oppressors were looting the resources of this country. He raised his voice against the oppression of the regime. In 1947,
the Indian subcontinent was divided into two countries named as India and Pakistan. Our motherland was referred to as East Pakistan but it
was far away from its west counterpart. After the division, this country was again being oppressed by the West Pakistani rulers. Sheikh
Mujib protested to this and became the villain in the eye of West Pakistani oppressors. He had to face jail several times for serving his
country’s purpose. Finally, the West Pakistani rules planned a genocide to stop the voice of this country. Though they conducted a general
election in 1970, in which Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman achieve the majority vote but wasn’t been able to form the government.
This also fired the cartridge among the people of East Pakistan. On 7 March 1971, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman gave a speech in
front of millions of people which encourage the people of East Pakistan to fight for their liberation. This was the turning point of the
people’s eagerness for the ultimate independence from the West Pakistani oppressors. Bangladesh gained its victory after nine months of
bloody war against the Pakistani Military Force. After the liberation of Bangladesh, Bangabandhu started his work to enrich Bangladesh in
Finance and other aspects. But he wasn’t been able to perform his actions as he was murdered along with his family on 15 August 1975. This
was one of the saddest incidents in the history of Bangladesh. But still, we remember him as the father of the nation and will be remembered
forever. Govt has declared his 100th birth year as the Mujib Borsho and will be celebrated with the utmost respect. His life and struggle will
always teach us to work for the betterment of the people of our country.

2. Karnaphuli Tunnel
It’s worth mentioning that the Karnaphuli Tunnel has also had a significant impact on the environment. Before the tunnel was built, the main
road between Chittagong and the Hill Tracts was prone to landslides and road closures during the monsoon season, which disrupted
transportation and commerce. The tunnel has eliminated these problems, and it has made transportation between the two regions more
reliable and efficient. In addition, the tunnel has reduced carbon emissions by reducing the time and fuel consumption required for
transportation. The shorter travel time through the tunnel has also led to a reduction in road accidents and traffic congestion, which has
further improved the environment.Furthermore, the tunnel has opened up new opportunities for sustainable tourism in the Chittagong Hill
Tracts. The region is home to a rich cultural heritage, diverse landscapes, and unique flora and fauna, and the tunnel has made it easier for
tourists to visit and explore the area. This has helped to promote sustainable tourism, which can provide significant economic benefits for the
local community while preserving the environment and cultural heritage of the Hill Tracts. Overall, the Karnaphuli Tunnel has been a game-
changer for Bangladesh, improving transportation, the economy, the environment, and the quality of life for people in the region.

3. The Speech of 7th March / An Epoch-Making speech

The historic 7'th March's speech of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman is the main inspiration of our liberation war. On 30th October
2017, UNESCO has recognized the fiery speech of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as a part of world's documentary heritage. The
speech was given by our father of the nation on 7th March 2017 at Ramna Race Course in Dhaka. In this speech, Bangabandhu declared
"This struggle is for our freedom, this speech is for our independence." He announced, "every house to turn into a fortress, resist the enemy
with all you have." During this 18 minute speech, he declared in a thunderous voice that "Having mastered the lesson of sacrifice, we shall
give more blood. God willing, we shall free the people of this land,” The speech of 7th March has inspired the 20000 people who were
present on the Ramna Race Course and also the whole nation to take part in liberation war and free our country from the enemy. This speech
has touched the soul of every Bangladeshi and even after 1971, this speech has encouraged all other movements. The speech of 7th March
was an eye-opening declaration for the nation that we should stand together and free our country from West Pakistan. Now it's a matter of
great pride for us that as UNESCO has recognized the speech, the whole world will be able to know of our liberation war.

4. Our Country

7. Importance of Learning English
English is the language of science, aviation, computers, diplomacy, business, and tourism. Knowing English increases your chances to build a
successful career. English is also the most used language in the world. It has become the only language of international communication, the media,
and the internet. So learning English is very important to keep pace with the competitive world. There are many reasons why learning English is
important. At first, English is the official language of over 53 countries and spoken by over 400 million people. It is the most common second
language of people all over the world. If we would like to talk to someone from another country, we must know English. So, English is the only
language of international communication. It is also the language of business. Multinational companies and business firms use English as their official
language. They need employees who know English because cross border communication is conducted in English. The Internet is the greatest source
of knowledge. According to Wikipedia, 56% of content over the internet are in English. So, we have to know English to access to more of the
internet. English is finally the language of world entertainment. Many of the world's top films, drama, books and music are published in English. By
learning English we'll be able to access a great wealth of entertainment. We can learn about cultures, habits and ways of life of different
communities. Now we can understand the importance of English. It is so valuable that we cannot but learn it. We can get a better job in a
multinational company if we have a good command over the language.

8. Uses and Abuses Internet

Internet is a worldwide spread computer network. It is also called a network of networks. The process of coordinating two or more computers with
cable, modem, satellite etc. is called internet. At present, it is the only means of exchanging data through computer networking. It works very easily
and rapidly. To get necessary information, one needs to search Yahoo or Google. Internet has a lot of importance. It plays an effective role in the
field of trade and commerce. At present, internet based e-commerce has become very popular all over the world. Because, customers can buy
anything without going to market. It also plays an important role in the field of education. Students and teachers can easily get necessary information
through internet. They can read any books without going to library. Not only students and teachers but also businesspersons, economists, doctors,
politicians and other professionals can be benefited by internet. Internet has some demerits too. Our young generation can easily get pornographic
images and videos through internet. As a result, they become addicted to it and thus their moral character is damaged. However, the use of internet in
our country is very expensive. Our government should take necessary steps to manage easy access to internet for the people of Bangladesh.

01. The thirty Crow / The clever crow / Where there is will there is a way
/ Necessity is the mother of invention.
It was a hot summer day. There was scorching heat of the sun. A crow became very thirsty. It wanted to drink water but there was no water around
it. So, it began to fly but did not find any source of water anywhere. The crow was very hopeful and patience. It was clever too. So, it did not lose
heart and kept on flying. At last it found a jar in a garden. It became very pleased. It flew down and sat on the jar. But alas! There was a little water at
the bottom of
the jar and it was out of its reach. Hence, it tried to turn the jar over again and again but brought no result. After several efforts, the crow got tired
and disappointed. In despair when it was about to leave the place, it noticed a heap of pebbles nearby. It got hope and hit upon a plan.
The crow picked up some pebbles and started dropping into the jar one after another. As a result, the water of the jar rose up little by little. When the
water came to the brim of the jar, the crow drank its heart content and flew away. In this way, the strong will of the crow helped it to meet its thirst.

Moral:-
02. Failure is the Pillar of Success / Robert the Bruce and the Spider
Robert Bruce was a famous King of Scotland. He loved his countrymen very much. The people of Scotland also liked him very much. Once the
English army evaded his country and occupied his kingdom. Bruce somehow managed to escape and took shelter in a cave. But he did not lose his
hope. He thought of reviving his kingdom and fought for the independence of Scotland. He made several attacks to revive his kingdom but failed to
win the battles. Being a failure frequently, he became very sad, frustrated, and unhappy. One noon, while taking rest Bruce suddenly saw a spider
trying to reach the ceiling of the cave. It failed several attempts. But he surprisingly noticed that the spider had not given up hope. It started trying
more forcefully after failing once and at last, it was able to reach the ceiling. Robert Bruce was very impressed by seeing the relentless efforts of the
tiny creature. The event made him inspired with new hope. He gathered armies and attached the enemies seriously. This time he defeated them
completely. In this way, a tiny spider encouraged him to revive his kingdom.

Moral:-
03. Devotion of Hazrat Bayazid to his mother
At one night the boy Bayazid was busy in studies. His ailing mother was sleeping. Suddenly she woke up and asked Bayazid to give her a
glass of water. But he found no water in the pitcher. So he went to the well situated at the edge of the village. The well was quite far from
their house. Everybody in the village was sleeping. He filled the pitcher and came back. He went to his mother with a glass of water. But she
was sleeping. He did not wake her up. He stood by her bed with the glass of water in his hand. She woke up in the morning. She was
