After doing all these things we can hope to have a good traffic system for our easy and comfortable movement.

They prevent soil erosion, air pollution and floods. They also effectively prevent the spread of the desert and landslides. They are essential to maintain ecological balance and preservation of fauna. We all should plant and grow more and more trees and protect them. Social forestry should be taken on a large scale and trees should be grown all around where in space. Trees add to the beauty and quality of our life and living. We have to plant trees in every bare space of land, the sea beaches, the low –lying areas, the road sides should be brought under deforestation. We cannot think our existence without trees. People should grow more and more trees to improve our adverse situation. The result of tree plantation will be positive for human being in every sphere of life.

The leading publishers of the country participate in the fair. They open their stalls and display their latest publication in those stalls. There were at least three hundred stalls. The book fair was arranged in such a way that could attract the attention of the interested readers. There were various kinds of books such as poetry, short stories, novels and essays on a wide range of topics. The people were moving from one stall to another to choose books according to their taste. It becomes crowded in the evening. Seminars and discussions were held in a book fair. It creates an interesting relationship between the readers and the writers. Some popular writers themselves are present in some stalls. I tried to buy a lot of books but my purse did not permit me. I had to buy a few books including a short story, poetry and some detective books. It was a great experience for me to visit the book fair.

The govt. should take necessary steps to reduce load shedding. More power stations should be established throughout the country.

15. The Life of a Fisherman

A fisherman is an person whose work is to catch fish in the ponds, canals and even in rivers and sell then in the local markets. His main profession is to earn his living by catching and selling fish. He even ventures (risk)  to the sea in groups by trawlers for the reason. He has to lead a hardscrabble life as his daily income is very insufficient. The fishermen form a community by themselves. Some fishermen live on the seashore and catch fish in the sea, while others live near the rivers at the high time of rainy season. Again some return to village for repairing fishing nets and boats. A fisherman does not know many things happening around him. He keeps himself busy in fishing lines. He does not care the other side of life. He is free from the peaks and troughs of urban life. His joy knows no bounds when he catches a lot of fish. But a fisherman has to face many challenges including maritime disasters. He has to maintain weather warnings. Sometimes, his life is faced with instant death in the grip of stormy weather when the sea becomes rough. The government should provide fishermen with some certain benefits including easy and relaxed term loans.

16.  A Street Accident

A street accident is a regular phenomenon in the highways and cities of our country. Every year it kills hundreds of lives. The indirect effect of this invisible monster is the downfall and untold suffering of hundreds of thousands of other people who are family members of those victims. A number of factors are responsible for this mishap including the inattentiveness of drivers, the working of a driver over too long a time at a stretch, the bad conditions of the streets, and most importantly, the maudlin competitiveness of the drivers. In Bangladesh, every day we find the news of road accident in our daily newspapers and the screen of television. It really makes us very shocked. Last month I faced such type of pathetic road accident. It occurred in Mirpur road near Kolabagan bus stand. When I was standing on the road and waiting for the bus. Then I saw a little boy who was trying to cross the busy road. When he was crossing the road at that time a bus was coming towards him with a great speed. But within a short time, it ran over the body of the boy and at once the boy was seriously injured. After sometimes when he was taken to the hospital, the doctor declared him as death. Really, it made me more pathetic and I cannot forget it easily.

Overtaking tendency, over loading, narrow road, damaged road, lack of traffic police, violation of traffic rules, increasing number of vehicles, lack of public awareness, mechanical disorder, etc, also cause road accident. The effects of road accidents are serious. Road accident causes a heavy loss to our life and property. Many people die and many people get seriously wounded every year. This problem can be solved by taking some measures. The drivers must be conscious of life and security. They should avoid reckless driving and overtaking tendency. Traffic rules should be strictly followed. Those who violate traffic rules should be punished. Narrow roads should be broad. New roads should be constructed. Parking of cars here and there should be stopped. We can reduce the number of road accidents by raising public awareness. Mass media can play an important role in this regard. The government agencies should work seriously for safe road so that we can move safely on the road.
