Dialogue about aim in life/ future plan of life / choice of career.
Faiad : Hello Tajwar, how are you?
Tajwar: Hi Faiad! I am fine, and you?
Faiad : I am fine too. What were you thinking about?
Tajwar: Oh, actually, I was wondering what I want to be in the future.
Faiad : Then, have you already fixed your aim in life?
Tajwar: Of course. Every man has his / her aim in life / his choice of career. Similarly, I also have my own aim in life.
Faiad : Oh, that’s great! What is that?
Tajwar: I want to be a doctor in the future.
Faiad : Really? Why have you decided to be a doctor?
Tajwar: Well, I believe that a doctor can serve the suffering humanity best.
Faiad : is that so? Can you please explain it a little more?
Tajwar: Oh sure. I give you an example. Most of the people in our country are very poor. They cannot afford the expenses of treatment. As a result, many of them die only for want of proper and timely treatment.
Faiad: In that case, how can you help them?
Tajwar: I want to offer treatment to poor people free of charge. And I dream that if I can earn more money, I will set up a charitable dispensary for the poor.
Faiad: That’s a very good idea. But you know, getting admitted into medical colleges has become so tough nowadays. What’s your plan regarding that?
Tajwar: Academic excellence is very much important for getting admitted into a medical college. So I am trying my best to achieve that success.
Faiad: I appreciate your aim and your heartiest effort to make your dream true. Wish you all the best.
Tajwar: Thank you very much.
Faiad: You’re most welcome.

Labonno: But, why don’t you prepare well for the exam?
Mrittika : You know, I’m an expert in copying in the examination hall.
Labonno : Fie! You’re ruining yourself by copying in the exam. This is nothing but a self-killing act.
Mrittika : But if I’m not caught, what’s wrong?
Labonno : There are many bad effects, friend. First of all, it is an immoral act, secondly, your knowledge and skill will not be developed if you adopt this unfair means.
Mrittika : Then what will happen?
Labonno : It is clear you may pass by copying, but you will not be qualified in any competitive job interview because you know little.
Mrittika : You’re right, friend. I realize the bad effects of copying.
Labonno : So, discard this evil intention from your mind. Read well, I’m sure you will do well.

Dialogue about bad effects of smoking
Saad : Hello, Shouvik. How are you?
Shouvik : I am not well. I have been suffering from a cough, but what about you?
Saad : I am fine, but you are not well as you have become a chain smoker nowadays. Smoking may be one of the main causes of your sickness.
Shouvik : The doctor also said so. He also said that smoking might cause cancer, heart attack, high blood pressure, chronic lung problems, and some other serious diseases.
Saad : The doctor said rightly. One puff of cigarette smoke contains fifteen billion particles of matter, which are fatal to health.
Shouvik : Besides, tobacco tar forms a brown, sticky mass inside the lungs, and it hinders the easy flow of blood.
Saad : Then why you are not giving up smoking? Is there anything good about smoking?
Shouvik : No, nothing at all. Nobody could make any argument in favour of smoking.
Saad : Absolutely. Remember that smoking affects not only smokers but also the people that may be around them.
Shouvik : You are right. It also causes a great deal of financial and economic loss.
Saad : Having known so much, why don’t you give up smoking? If you think seriously about its bad effects, you should not smoke anymore.
Shouvik : I tried to give it up, but I could not. I cannot even concentrate on my studies without smoking.
Saad : It is a lame excuse. If you want, you can give up smoking. In this case, your willpower is enough. It is a suicidal habit.
Shouvik : Yes, I know it is a suicidal habit that kills a person slowly. However, within the shortest possible time, I will give up smoking totally.
Saad : Thank you for your wise decision. You should not smoke anymore. Remember that the sooner you give it up, the better it will be for you.
Shouvik : Thanks a lot for your valuable suggestion.

Dialogue on Tree Plantation
Saad : Hello Shouvik. How are you?
Shouvik: Fine and what about you?
Saad : I am also fine. Where did you go yesterday? I looked for you.
Shouvik: I went to the tree fair to buy some saplings. The Tree Fair has been going on for the last five days. It will continue for more than two days.

Saad : Why do they organize this Tree Fair?
Shouvik: It appears to me that you are not yet fully aware of the importance of tree plantation.

Saad : But do you notice that many unscrupulous people are cutting down trees at random? What might be its consequence?
Shouvik: If they cut down trees indiscriminately, the country will one day turn into a desert. The temperature will rise, and it will cause the greenhouse effect.
Saad : 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.
Shouvik: You are right. To save lives and maintain the ecological balance of the environment, there is no alternative to tree plantation.
Saad : Now I understand why tree plantation is so important. I think people from all walks of life should come forward to make the tree plantation programne a success.
Shouvik: Absolutely, let us make our friends aware and motivate them to plant trees more and more to make our country a land of greenery.

Dialogue about the advantages and disadvantages of village life and city life
Rabbi : Hello Sami! How are you?
Sami : I am fine and you?
Rabbi : Thank you, I am also fine. Sami, what do you think about city life and village life?
Sami : There are great differences between city life and village life. Village life is natural but city life is
artificial. But there are some facilities in city which are not avail able in village.
Rabbi : It’s true that city life is full of luxury and facility. But environment of city is much polluted.
Sami : Yes, village environment is fresh but if you are ill, you will have to go to town to meet doctor.
Rabbi : It’s true. But, environment of village will keep you fit.
Sami : I agree with you.
Rabbi : When you are bored of your city life and you want some sort of relief from city life, only a village can pacify your mind.
Sami : This is also true. Can you deny the advantages of modernism?
Rabbi : I don’t mean that. I just want to say that village life is much better than city life.

Dialogue about the benefits of reading newspaper
Tashdik: Hi, Ayon, how are you?
Ayon : I’m fine, friend. How are you?
Tashdik: Me too. But one thing about you has surprised me a lot.
Ayon : What’s that, my friend?
Tashdik: I see you don’t read newspaper, do you?
Ayon : Yes. I don’t read newspaper. It’s only waste of time.
Tashdik: Then you’re entirely in the wrong, Ayon. Newspaper reading is never a waste of time.
Ayon : May be. But why do you think reading of newspaper is never a waste of time?
Tashdik: You see. Newspaper is a mirror of the world. By reading newspaper we get all kinds of news and
views. In this era of scientific progress and globalization, we cannot do a single day without it. We will
become detached from the outside world in absence of it. We cannot start a day without going
through a daily newspaper. Newspaper brings news of various kinds to meet the demand of people
from all social strata.
Ayon : I see. Does it widen the horizon of one’s knowledge about the country as well as the world?
Tashdik: Of course, it does.
Ayon : I’ve got your point. But doesn’t it appear monotonous?
Tashdik: Not at all. It caters to the need and taste of all classes of people.
Ayon : Now I understand that newspaper is a very useful thing.
Tashdik: Of course. It has a very great educative value, too. Indeed, a newspaper is an encyclopedia, a store-house of knowledge and all kinds of information are available at the cheapest price.
Ayon : You’ve told a lot of things about newspaper. I’ll start reading newspaper immediately.
Tashdik: I’m sure, you’ll find that the time spent in reading newspaper is amply rewarding. I’d like to hear about it from you soon.
Ayon : Ok. Good bye now, friend.
Tashdik: See you.

Arafat: I am fine. But what happened to you?
Mafin: Nothing serious, but I feel out of sorts.

Mafin: Yes, you are absolutely right. I am not habituated to take physical exercise.
Arafat: But you should know that physical exercise is very important to keep the body healthy and fit. It makes the joints in the body flexible.
Mafin: It means if I do not take physical exercise regularly, I won’t be able to keep my body healthy and fit.

Mafin: I see taking physical exercise regularly as very important for good health.
Arafat: Exactly! Come to my house tomorrow early in the morning and I will show you some free hand exercise. Thank you.
Mafin: You are most welcome. I highly appreciate your wise suggestion.
Dialogue on the merits and demerits of mobile phone
Moon Hi Mrittika, How are you?
Mrittika I’m fine. Thank you. What about you?
Moon I’m also fine. I want to buy a mobile phone this month. Before buying the phone, I want to know the merits and demerits of the mobile phone.
Mrittika Oh, that’s great. The mobile phone has a lot of merits in our modern life but also has some demerits.
Moon If you know the merits and demerits of the mobile phone then tell me details about it.
Mrittika First I’m going to tell you the good sides of mobile phones. A mobile phone is a device. By using it, we can communicate with others within a minute. It’s changed our communication systems and sped up our daily lives. Using a mobile phone, you can send an email within a second. By the way, the mobile phone is an inevitable ingredient of an up-to-date civilization.
Moon WOW! Lots of benefits to using mobile phones. Now tell me, what are the demerits of the mobile phone?
Mrittika The mobile phone has some negative sides for the younger generation. The younger generation is addicted to using mobile phones. They use their mobile phones at night instead of reading, and the most negative thing is that they sometimes talk with strangers through cross-connection.
Moon I also saw some of my friends (boys and girls) talking to each other on their mobile phones. I think mobile phones have a big negative impact on teenagers.
Mrittika You are right. We all know the bad and good effects of using mobile phones. So we should use the good sides of the mobile phone in our daily life.
Moon Oh sure. In this modern age, it will become difficult for us to communicate without mobile phones. So we should be careful about using the good aspects of our mobile phones.
Mrittika Obviously, we should follow the good use of mobile phones. Nice talking to you. No more today. Take care.
Moon Thanks for sharing your helpful thoughts.
Mrittika You are welcome.

Labonno : Don’t philosophize, please. I am really afraid as I have no good preparation for English. In a short time, it is very difficult for me to make a success in English.

Faiad : Actually education widens our outlook and orientation. It broadens our minds and mentality. It refines our senses and sensibilities. It helps us know how to earn and spend.
Tajwar : Right you are. Education helps us to get jobs. We can earn our bread and butter and play a significant role in strengthening our national economy if we take education.
Faiad : Yea, I agree with you. An educated person is not a burden to his/her family as well as the country. Rather, he/she tries his/her best to remove the burdensome conditions of his/her family as well as the country.
Tajwar : In fact, we can stand upright and create coruscation all over the world if we take education.
Faiad : Therefore, every one of us should take education.
Tajwar : Yea, thank you very much.
Faiad : Thank you too.
Dialogue about the importance of punctuality in student life
Trisha: Hello, Mala.
Myself: Come fast and walk faster.
Trisha: Why are you hasting away? I‘ll also go to school.
Myself: If we walk slowly, we’ll be late in the class And it’s not fair at all.
Trisha: I think just a bit late doesn’t matter.
Myself: It’s a great mistake. Actually late is late. All of us should be punctual in every sphere of our life. And as we are students, it is the perfect period for us to build up the habit of being punctual.
Trisha: But why is punctuality so important in student life?
Myself: You see, every work has a particular time to start and finish. If we are late in one, it will be difficult for us to complete in time and the later one must be affected by this. If we are not punctual in classes and homework, we can never hope for perfect preparation for the exams. Besides being late is a seriously bad habit as well.
Trisha: You‘re quite right. That is the reason why I can never complete my work in time and lag behind. Now I can realize the importance of punctuality. I am really grateful to you for your telling speech.
Myself: As a friend, it’s my duty.
Trisha: You‘re really helpful.
Myself: No mention.
Dialogue on the importance of reading a newspaper
Daiyaan : Hello Sakin! How are you?
Sakin : Thank you. I am fine and what about you?
Daiyaan : I am also fine. Where are you going?
Sakin : I am going to buy a newspaper.
Daiyaan : Do you read the newspaper regularly?
Sakin : Yes, I never think that reading a newspaper is a waste of time. Rather, it is an indispensable part of my daily life, as a newspaper is a mirror of the whole world.
Daiyaan : Yes, indeed. We get various types of news in a newspaper; for instance, current affairs, trade, and commerce, literature, games, sports, etc.
Sakin : You are right. That is why the newspaper is called the storehouse of knowledge. Without reading it, we cannot keep pace with the modern world.
Daiyaan : Absolutely. To adjust to modern civilization, we have no substitute for reading newspapers. Those who don’t read newspapers remain frogs of the well.
Sakin : You are right. At the same time, newspapers contain articles related to our study, and these are very helpful. Mere bookish knowledge is not sufficient.
Daiyaan : But you should keep in mind that sometimes false news leads to many mishaps.
Sakin : Of course. But there is nothing unmixed in this world. We cannot deny the importance of reading newspapers in any way.
Daiyaan : Of course, Which section of a newspaper do you like the most?
Sakin : I like the general knowledge section and the literary articles. Which section do you like the most?
Daiyaan : That’s very good. I like the study page and editorial column the most. Thank you very much. Goodbye.
Sakin : You are welcome. Goodbye.
Dialogue about the benefits of reading newspaper
Tashdik: Hi, Ayon, how are you?
Ayon : I’m fine, friend. How are you?
Tashdik: Me too. But one thing about you has surprised me a lot.
Ayon : What’s that, my friend?
Tashdik: I see you don’t read newspaper, do you?
Ayon : Yes. I don’t read newspaper. It’s only waste of time.
Tashdik: Then you’re entirely in the wrong, Ayon. Newspaper reading is never a waste of time.
Ayon : May be. But why do you think reading of newspaper is never a waste of time?
Tashdik: You see. Newspaper is a mirror of the world. By reading newspaper we get all kinds of news and
views. In this era of scientific progress and globalization, we cannot do a single day without it. We will
become detached from the outside world in absence of it. We cannot start a day without going
through a daily newspaper. Newspaper brings news of various kinds to meet the demand of people
from all social strata.
Ayon : I see. Does it widen the horizon of one’s knowledge about the country as well as the world?
Tashdik: Of course, it does.
Ayon : I’ve got your point. But doesn’t it appear monotonous?
Tashdik: Not at all. It caters to the need and taste of all classes of people.
Ayon : Now I understand that newspaper is a very useful thing.
Tashdik: Of course. It has a very great educative value, too. Indeed, a newspaper is an encyclopedia, a store-house of knowledge and all kinds of information are available at the cheapest price.
Ayon : You’ve told a lot of things about newspaper. I’ll start reading newspaper immediately.
Tashdik: I’m sure, you’ll find that the time spent in reading newspaper is amply rewarding. I’d like to hear about it from you soon.
Ayon : Ok. Good bye now, friend.
Tashdik: See you.

Dialogue on the merits and demerits of mobile phone
Moon Hi Mrittika, How are you?
Mrittika I’m fine. Thank you. What about you?
Moon I’m also fine. I want to buy a mobile phone this month. Before buying the phone, I want to know the merits and demerits of the mobile phone.
Mrittika Oh, that’s great. The mobile phone has a lot of merits in our modern life but also has some demerits.
Moon If you know the merits and demerits of the mobile phone then tell me details about it.
Mrittika First I’m going to tell you the good sides of mobile phones. A mobile phone is a device. By using it, we can communicate with others within a minute. It’s changed our communication systems and sped up our daily lives. Using a mobile phone, you can send an email within a second. By the way, the mobile phone is an inevitable ingredient of an up-to-date civilization.
Moon WOW! Lots of benefits to using mobile phones. Now tell me, what are the demerits of the mobile phone?
Mrittika The mobile phone has some negative sides for the younger generation. The younger generation is addicted to using mobile phones. They use their mobile phones at night instead of reading, and the most negative thing is that they sometimes talk with strangers through cross-connection.
Moon I also saw some of my friends (boys and girls) talking to each other on their mobile phones. I think mobile phones have a big negative impact on teenagers.
Mrittika You are right. We all know the bad and good effects of using mobile phones. So we should use the good sides of the mobile phone in our daily life.
Moon Oh sure. In this modern age, it will become difficult for us to communicate without mobile phones. So we should be careful about using the good aspects of our mobile phones.
Mrittika Obviously, we should follow the good use of mobile phones. Nice talking to you. No more today. Take care.
Moon Thanks for sharing your helpful thoughts.
Mrittika You are welcome.

Labonno : Hello Sumaiya, how are you?
Sumaiya : I am fine, and what about you?
Labonno : I am not so good. I am worried about my exam.
Sumaiya : It is very common. You are serious about it, so you are worried.
Labonno : Don’t philosophize, please. I am really afraid as I have no good preparation for English. In a short time, it is very difficult for me to make a success in English.

Labonno : You are right. Besides, I should improve my writing skill to do well in English.
Sumaiya : It is okay. You will do better if you read English regularly.
Labonno : Thank you for your encouragement. To speak the truth, I am afraid I couldn’t secure more than 50% marks in English in the last examination.

Ahona : I know. But we have a duty towards them and we, three cousins and five friends from our village will work for it.

Maisha : Where will you get various teaching aids and books?
Ahona : We have already raised a fund. The local Chairman has granted take 20,000. Our rich people are also helping us. Besides, we will teach them without pay. They will bless us.

Saad : Hello Shouvik. How are you?
Shouvik: Fine and what about you?
Saad : I am also fine. Where did you go yesterday? I looked for you.

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

Shouvik: You are right. To save lives and maintain the ecological balance of the environment, there is no alternative to tree plantation.
Saad : Now I understand why tree plantation is so important. I think people from all walks of life should come forward to make the tree plantation programne a success.

Rabbi : Hello Sami! How are you?
Sami : I am fine and you?
Rabbi : Thank you, I am also fine. Sami, what do you think about city life and village life?
Sami : There are great differences between city life and village life. Village life is natural but city life is
artificial. But there are some facilities in city which are not avail able in village.

Rabbi : But villages are the producer of food.
Sami : City people possess all educational institution and administration.
Rabbi : At all both of them have some advantages and disadvantages.
