1.Read  the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow :

Digital Bangladesh is a wonderful vision that is dreamt by the government and the literate class for the technological development of Bangladesh. Digitalization has become a buzzword in the new era of information technology. We can now learn in an instant what is happening in the furthest corner of the world. The electronic transfer of information via the internet has created an interconnected world of information. Bangladesh is going to observe digital year in 2011 to mark the journey to digital Bangladesh. The government has taken up an initiative for setting up Union Information Centres (UIC) in 1000 unions in line with the dream to build Digital Bangladesh by 2021. This programme is a welcome development towards reaching information technology facilities to the doorsteps of rural people. The village people will easily get information about agriculture, health, education, marketing and employment from the UICs. All cases related to information of the SC will be available in its website. Dhaka Metropolitan Police is also going to install a hi-tech monitoring system in the central control room to make contact with the on-duty police anywhere within the metropolitan area. Digitalization will largely change banking and financial activities. Worldwide money transfer and transaction of business have now become a matter of clicking the mouse of a computer. Some products like software and TV programmes are also amenable to digital transmission. We will be able to buy and sell goods through the electronic screen if we can make a Digital Bangladesh. Undoubtedly, encouraging development towards digitalization of Bangladesh by 2021 can be possible.

1.Read  the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow :

Face book is a social networking website intended to connect friends, family, and business associates. It is the largest of the networking sites, with the runner up being My Space. It began as a college networking website and has expanded to include anyone and everyone. Face book was founded by 2004 by Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg and originally called the face book. It was quickly successful on campus and expanded beyond Harvard into other Ivy League schools. At that time, it was only available to schools, universities, organizations, and companies within English speaking countries, but has since expanded to include anyone. Face book users create a profile page that shows their friends and networks information about themselves. The profile typically includes the following: Information, Status, Friends, and Friends in Other Networks, Photos, Notes, Groups, and The Wall. Users are able to search for friends and acquaintances by e-mail address, school, university, or just by typing in a name or location for search. When people become friends, they are able to see all of each others' profiles including contact information. E-mail notifications let users know when new friends have chosen to add them to their list or when someone has sent a message to them within the system. A popular feature on Face book is the ability to share photographs uploaded from a phone, camera, or hard drive. As with other private information, users have the option to allow only friends to see their pictures or anyone. There is an unlimited amount of storage available, which is a major advantage of Face book’s photograph sharing capabilities.

Climate change is the most pressing issue at the moment over the world. The cause of climate change can be divided into two categories those are due to natural causes and those are created by men.

1. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow :
It is a mystery which has baffled parents and teachers for years  how to persuade children to eat more fruit and vegetables and not to eat unhealthy ‘junk’ food.But a video of fruit arid vegetable loving cartoon characters may provide the answer. The four friends are having the same effect on school children as Popeye once had on Spinach consumption. Popeye appeared in an American cartoon strip in the 1920s, A sailor who developed superhuman strength by eating Spinach had a huge effect on children’s eating habits. Sales of Spinach increased and it became one of the most popular foods among American youngsters.The characters are devised by psychologists who carried out research with 1,000 children over three years. The experimental programme proved such a success that it is now being used as pilot study in 20 schools. The latest study at a primary school in South London found fruit and vegetable intake among the children had doubled, A study at another school, where children were offered fruit during their morning break and at lunch time without showing the video found no change in the children’s eating habit.

The four characters in the video have a favourite fruit or vegetable. Charlie eats carrots, ‘Font prefers tomatoes. Raz eats raspberries and Rocco broccoli. Fruit and vegetables give the characters the life force they need to save the world from General Junk and his army of vegetable-hating “Junks-Punks”.The experiment was reinforced by offering the children rewards, such as stickers and pencils for eating fruit and vegetables. Katy Tapper, who led the research, said “it is recommended that children eat five portions of fruit and vegetables a day, but they arc usually eating less than half of this. There is evidence that if you taste something many times you learn to like the taste. The intervention gets the children to repeatedly taste fruit and vegetable, so they develop a liking for them.”

The video shown in school for six minutes a day, worked in conjunction, with the rewards. Either method on its own was not as effective.

1. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow :
Cricket is, in a sense, warfare in miniature and a cricket match should be fought by both sides with all the resources of spirit and technique at their command. At the same time it should always be recreation, a game, to be played not only according to written laws but in harmony with an unwritten code of chivalry and good temper.

A cricket team should feel that they are playing with, as well as against, there opponents. The home side should remember that they are hosts, the visitors that they are guests, and both should realize that the true greatness of the game lies in combat and comradeship combined.

Persued in such a spirit, victory, and nothing short of victory, should be the object of both teams from the first over of the match. The bowlers and fielders of the one, the batsman of the other, should go on to the field determined to attack and to go on attacking until they are really forced to fall back on defense, even then they are able to resume the offensive as the rules of the game permits.

It would seem that in recent years this instinct for attack has tended to give place to a premature concern with defense in which the batsman’s chief aim is to stay at the wicket rather than to make runs.

The bowlers are to keep down the rate of run getting rather than to get wickets. With the resulting development of defensive technique in batting, bowling, and field placing the game is in danger of becoming less vital and less enjoyable for players and spectators alike.

The coaches of today can do cricket no greater service than by helping the cricketers of the future to re-capture the spirit and the armoury of attack: only then they can win from the game the best that it has to give them.

In no other game perhaps is the individual and his team so closely integrated. One man virtually win a match, not necessarily by technical skill, but by intelligence, concentration and character. One man loses it by a failure in those qualities. Conversely, the morale of each member of an eleven can be largely built up and sustained by the atmosphere of the whole.

A dialogue public is similar to other kinds of communities. The
people who make up the community share a common language. Often they
live side by side as they do in a neighbor, a village, or a city.
More often they form a whole country. Many nations are composed of a
single major speech community, for example Italy, Sweden and Japan.
National boundaries however, are not always the same as the boundaries
of a speech community. Some nations, for example Russia and India are
made up of many speech communities. Some speech communities, for
example, Arabic, Spanish, and English, extend across national
boundaries. A speech community, then, is any group of people who speak
the same language no matter where they happen to live. We may so, say
that anyone who speaks English belongs to the English speech
community. For convenience, we may classify the speakers into two
groups : one in which the speakers use English as their native
language,the other in which the speakers learn English as a second
language for the purpose of education, commerce and so on.

Education means mental and moral training. It is the light that clears
off the darkness of ignorance from our mental horizon. The development
of a nation totally depends on its system of education. The percentage
of literacy of our country is 52. But it is very painful that though
the government takes steps to increase the development of education,
it gradually decreases. The students do not concentrate their mind to
studies.Violence takes place in the educational institutions. Those
who have passed the exam during this critical period are not
well-educated. There is lack of proper planning in our education
system. The educational institutions are planless. The teachers do not
give proper attention to their classes, rather they give more
attention to coaching centres. As a consequence, the students become
derailed to get rid of this indiscipline. To improve the standard of
education in our country the students as well as the high officials of
the government should come forward and work heartily to achieve the
desiredgoal.

1. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow :

Men usually want to have their own way. They want to think and act as
they like. No one, however, can have his own way all the time. A man
cannot live in society without considering the interests of others as
well as his own interests. ‘Society’ means a group ©f people with the
same laws and the same ways of life. People in society may make their
own decisions, but these decisions ought not to be unjust or harmful
to others. One man’s decisions may so easily harm another person. For
example, a motorist may be in a hurry to get to a friend’s house. He
sets out driving at full speed like a competitor in a motor race.
There are other vehicles and also pedestrians on the road. Suddenly
there is a crash. Too many road accidents happen through the
thoughtlessness of selfish drivers. We have governments, the police
and the law courts to prevent or to punish such criminal acts. But in
addition all men ought to observe certain rules of conduct. Every man
ought to behave with consideration for other men. He ought not to
steal, cheat or destroy the property of others. There is no place for
this sort of behaviour in a civilized society. Men in a free society
have certain privileges. The government and the police do not watch
all their movements. Men in a free society may think as they please.
They may even choose their own government. In return for these
privileges they ought not to act selfishly. They ought always to
respect the rights of others. Wherever they may live— whether in a
town or in a village— in a large or a small community, they ought not
to behave thoughtlessly. The happiness of a community depends on the
behaviour of its individual members.

(a)Write answers to the following questions :
(i) Why men can not always have their own way because  2×2=4
(ii) What is very important to remember for men living in a civilized society?
