There are many causes of a street accident. The reckless driving of the drivers
are the main causes of it. The unconsciousness of the people is also responsible
for increasing street accident. Most of the drivers are not willing to obey the
traffic rules. On the other hand, passer-by are also busy. They do not use over
bridge and use underground path. As a result a street accident is caused
every-day. So we should try to solve i t. Traffic rules should be imposed.
Passer-by and driver should be aware. Radio, T.V can play an important role in
this regard. Govt. also should take proper step to solve this problem.

it. The sufferings of students know no bound. They sit in the darkness closing
books during load shedding. The patients suffer because operation stops in

A
Rainy Day
A rainy day is
dull and gloomy. The sky is overcast with thick clouds. None can go out without
an umbrella. Water stands the roads and roads become muddy and slippery. Those
who have offices and other businesses go out with umbrellas over their head,
shoes in hand and clothes folded up to the knee. Passers-by also move in the
same way. Sometimes people slip and fall on the muddy road. The poor suffer
much on a rainy day. They cannot go out in quest of work and cannot earn their
daily food. They pass the day through sufferings. Most of the students do not
go to the school. Only a few go to the school, but they get drenched on the
way. So, classes are not held and it is a day of great joy to them. Other
people stay at home and pass the day without doing anything. The cattle keep
standing in their sheds and bellow. A rainy day is a mixed day of joy and
sorrow. Despite all its disadvantages, we enjoy ourselves on this day.

becomes very busy because of the arrival of trains. Here the passengers are
found to stand in a queue to collect their tickets in front of the ticket
counter. A big station is always crowded with passengers, hawkers, and posters.
There are bookstalls, book-sellers and waiting rooms in such a stations.
Vendors shout their trade cries. When a train reaches at the station, the
passengers hurry to get off from the train. At the same time passengers waiting
for the train want to get into the train. As a result, a collision of two
groups of passengers takes place. The whistling sound of the departing train
creates a situation of vacuum in the minds of the passengers. When the train
leaves the station, it becomes deserted and buzzing sound of the passengers
ends. A railway station is often a den for the anti-social elements. It is a
suitable place for the beggars to carry on their trade. It is an unhygienic
place too. The authority should look into it.
