Dear Kailash,
I am fine here and expect the same for you. I am writing this letter to suggest you some tips for conserving water which I have learnt recently. First of all we should use water economically. We should try to harvest rain water at different levels. The farmers can store water by building Medha Bandha around their fields. Old ponds and wells can be made deeper and cleaned to store rain water. Dams should be repaired. If these small things are kept in minds then there would be no scarcity of water. We should voluntarily help in this matter. More on meeting.

Yours
Rajesh

(निम्नलिखित विषयों में से किसी एक पर निबन्ध लिखें:)

  1. Importance of Computer.
  2. Annual Day Celebration in Your School.
  3. Water and Air Pollution.
  4. My Hobby.
  5. A Festival you like to the Most.

Answer:

Importance of Computer:

The first computer was built by Charles Babbage in 19th Century. It is being improved everyday. Earlier it was used to carry long calculations and print the results but now it is used in almost every walk of life. Computer can provide answers to complicated problems in a flash in which a man would take days or even months. It has a memory also. It can store information and use it later. Computers are used in railway stations for reservation of tickets.

It is used in offices, hospitals, for maintaining records. It is also used for billing in shops. In banks and post office also, the whole work is done on computers. Computer can be compared to human brain. It can solve problems much faster and more accurately than the human brain. It can be used to play games like chess and translate words from one language to another. But it can’t take decisions or think up new ideas. That is where it cannot compete with human brain.

कठिन शब्द –

  • complicated = कठिन
  • flash = क्षण 42
  • translate = अनुवाद
  • compete = बराबरी करन

2. Annual Day Celebration in Your School.

I study in Deep Vidya Mandir. Our school holds each year an annual function on its foundation day. The prizes are given away in this function to the students who perform well in various fields as academics, sports, cultural activities etc. Our Principal invited the Director of Education to preside over the function. He came in time. Our school scouts gave him guard of honor and staff members received him at the gate.

First of all, he was welcomed with garland and principal read the annual report of the school. After few cultural activities, prize distribution was started. The Director gave away the prizes. He was very happy with school affairs, teachers and Principal. The Principal thanked the Director. In the end, a feast was arranged and we came back to our homes happily.

कठिन शब्द –

  • annual function = सालाना कार्यक्रम
  • foundation = स्थापना
  • academics = शिक्षा सम्बन्धी।
  • preside = अध्यक्षता
  • garland = फूल माला
  • affairs = कार्य
  • feast = पार्टी

3. Water and Air Pollution.

Pollution means to make impure. The air we breathe in is polluted by means of transport. Factories, with chimneys throwing out smoke into air is the chief source of air pollution. Automobiles are the second largest polluters of the environment. With the increase of vehicles the air pollution is increasing. Air pollution not only affects human beings, it is also injurious to plants, trees and animals.

Air pollution is not the only serious problem facing mankind. Water pollution’s is also causing concern to man. The waste product from factories, thousands of liters of sewage are poured into rivers. People throw left overs of meals in lakes and ponds. In seas also fuels, minerals, food and forest products are thrown to make it polluted. To reduce the air and water pollution the government is taking necessary steps and the public should also help the government.

कठिन शब्द –

  • Pollution = दूषित करना
  • transport = एक जगह से दूसरी जगह ले जाना
  • automobiles = मोटर गाड़ी
  • minerals = खनिज
  • injurious = हानिकारक
  • concern= चिन्ता का विषय।

4. My Hobby.

An activity which pleases us and which we do just to please ourselves in our free time is called a hobby. Stamp collecting, listening to music, drawing and painting, gardening are some of the hobbies.. • My hobby is drawing and painting. I am interested in drawing landscapes and human figures and painting them. When I travel by train, I see beautiful landscapes outside the window.

When I sit in peace, I recall those scenes, and draw them. At some places I get the subject matter as floating clouds, rivers, hills, fields and green trees. At evening I paint the scenery of the setting sun. I get a satisfaction when I complete a good landscape. In my opinion painting makes the nature a companion of the artist. He forgets the world and his worries for a while.

कठिन शब्द –

  • Landscape = नयनगेचन प्रदेश
  • floating = तैरते हुए
  • Companion = साथी
  • Worries = परेशानियाँ

5. A Festival you like to the Most.

India is a land of festivals. We mainly celebrate festivals for fun and joy. We celebrate Holi, Diwali, Dusshera, Raksha Bandhan and many other festivals. Diwali is my favorite festival. It is the festival of lights. It is so called because people light candles and lamps. It is celebrated because Lord Ram had come Lack from banishment after killing Ravana. People of Ayodhya and illuminated the city.

Before this day we clean and whitewash our houses. We worship Goddess Laxmi on this day. We decorate our houses. Children play with fire crackers. We exchange sweets with our relatives and friends. Some people enjoy in their own way by drinking and gambling. Sometimes children get hurt by crackers. So we should take proper care while celebrating Diwali.

कठिन शब्द –

  • festival = त्योहार
  • light = जलान
  • worship = पूजा करना
  • banishment = अज्ञातवास।
  • whitewash = सफेदी करना
  • decorate = सजाना
  • crackers = पटाखे
  • celebrate = मनाना।
