A JOURNEY BY TRAIN

 A JOURNEY BY TRAIN 

 

Journey is always fascinating. It charms our mind and make us happy. Journey is a break in our monotonous everyday life. After a journey we feel relaxed and fresh. Peace fills our heart after we have made a really wonderful journey. I made a journey by train with my friends last year. I received a letter from my uncle at Chattogram to attend the marriage ceremony of his daughter. I took some of my friends with me. Early in the morning I reached Kamlapur Railway Station where I found my other friends. 

 

The train came. We found seats in a carriage in the waiting train, saw our luggage put in, and then settled down for the journey. The guard blew his whistle and waved his green flag, the engine slowly began to move and we glided out of the station. Everything that we were passing was pretty and so we amused ourselves by looking through the windows. As the train winded away, eastwards, we could see a number of hills and mountains. 

 

 

We passed by green field, beautiful watery areas and wonderful hillocks. Everything seemed very bright and pleasant to us. From the train, we could see the clear, green waters and women and small boys and girls swimming happily and taking bath in the ponds and rivers. At noon we took our lunch in the train. The dishes were not so bad. We took a lot. The journey was highly enjoyable. Some of my friends started to sing. 

 

Other passengers were also enjoying our childish attitudes. Some were enjoying the scenery of the way. Some people were also sleeping or reading books. After all, all of us were enjoying the time in our own ways. At last at 4 pm we reached Chattogram. The road was really wonderful. The journey seemed to me like a dream. However, when we reached Chattogram, we found my uncle waiting for us. 

 

He welcomed us and took to his residence. Thus our wonderful journey ended very beautifully. 

It was really an exciting journey that filled my heart with thrill and excitement. I could never forget it in my whole life. Whenever I recollect the memories of that day. I feel something extraordinarily wonderful is going to happen in my heart which I am unable to explain. I can only feel it and enjoy it.

FLOODS IN BANGLADESH (PARAGRAPH WITH VIDEO)

FLOODS IN BANGLADESH

(Paragraph) 

Bangladesh is the world's largest delta region whose rivers fall into the Bay of Bengal. Due to its geographical position, different types of natural calamities like floods, cyclones, drought, etc visit the country almost every year. So, Bangladesh is called a land of natural calamities. Among the natural calamities, flood is the most common here. There are numerous barrages like Farakka in the upstream positions of our rivers. During the dry season, they divert most of our river water. It causes low flow and siltation.  For it, our rivers are dying and losing the capacity to hold water. During the rainy season, water overflows the banks of the rivers and floods the surrounding areas. Sometimes, untimely heavy rainfall causes untimely floods. Flood damages crops and washes away houses, properties, domestic animals etc. People suffer from food, shelter and pure drinking water. After floods, different types of diseases break out. As a result, their sufferings know no bounds. To prevent floods, obstacles to natural flow of water should be removed. Anti-flood dams should be built up. Besides, E-necessary steps should also be taken to minimize the sufferings of the flood-affected people.
