Suppose, two friends named Shamim and Kaniz are members of the English language club at their school. Today, they read a news report about why many female students still cannot complete secondary education in Bangladesh. Now, write a dialogue among them on the issue

Teacher: Good day, all. So, how are things today?
Salma: It's good, ma'am.
Sohel : Good day, ma'am. But it's been a long day for us.
Shuvo : Don't think we can concentrate on a serious discussion, ma'am. Can we talk about something else, if you don't mind?
Salma : Not a bad idea. Something interesting, I suppose.
Teacher: I don't mind.
Sohel : Excellent.
Teacher: Let's discuss something else, then. Umm... let's talk about the importance of setting goals. Can you all tell me what you know about it?
Sohel : You mean setting goals in our life?
Salma :I know setting goals is necessary, but I don't understand why.

Shuvo : Well, I know, it's all about the decision on anything we want to achieve in life.
Teacher Well, in a sense, you are right. Setting goals gives you a clear direction and purpose to work towards. It helps you to stay motivated and focused on achieving your objectives.
Salma :  I see. But what if I don't achieve my goals?
Teacher: That's a valid concern, Salma. But even if you don't achieve your goals, you may still make progress towards them. And the process of setting goals and working towards them can help you to develop necessary skills such as time management, planning, and perseverance.
Sohel : I guess that makes sense. But how do I know what goals to set?
Teacher: That's a great question, Sohel. You should start by identifying what you want to achieve and what is important to you. Then, you can set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals that align with your values and aspirations. :
Salma: That sounds like a challenging thing to go for!
Teacher: Well, it may seem so, Salma, but it's worth it. Trust me. 

Shuvo: We all are listening to you, ma'am, and we all have faith in you.
Teacher: Hmm... setting goals can help you to achieve success in all areas of your life, whether it's academics, career, or personal growth. And remember, you can adjust your goals as you go along.
Salma : Okay, I understand, ma'am. I will start setting some goals for myself.
Teacher: That's a great attitude, Salma. Remember, setting goals is an important part of achieving success in life. I'm here to support you all every step of the way.
Sohel : Thank you, ma'am.
Shuvo : We need this sort of discussion quite often, I must say.
Teacher : Sure, we do.

Ratri : Hey! What are you reading?
Rayhan: I am just trying to figure out which forms of the verb I will use for the following sentences.
Ratri : Okay, what is the solution? How are you trying to do that?
Rayhan: After a long discussion, my friend and I ultimately decided to read aloud the sentences a few times with the different, forms of the verb. And finally, the verb form that sounds okay, will be the correct form for the specific sentence.
Ratri : You are indeed a genius, dear brother! But you know, this technique doesn't work at all, rather it will mislead you. Better read and learn which form of the verb will be used in a specific sentence.
Rayhan: That's too difficult and time consuming, I think.
Ratri : Actually, it's the opposite. As you are trying to tick, for example, which form of the verb would be correct in this sentence, 'Attending/Attend classes is a must to learn better.'? Is it attending or attend?

Rayhan: Exactly, and I can't decide that.
Ratri : That's very obvious because you don't have any idea about Gerund and Participles.
Rayhan: I have heard the terms but don't know much about them.
Ratri : Look, a gerund is a form of a verb with "ing" in its base form. It works like a noun in a sentence. For example- Splashing water is fun. Here, splashing is a gerund because splashing is a form of the verb 'splash' with 'ing'. And it works/acts like a noun in the sentence.

Rayhan: Not at all. I'm enjoying it. Please, go on.
Ratri : That's great! Remember that an infinitive can't be a main verb. For example, 'I want to invite all my friends to my birthday party'. Here, before 'invite', to has been used. It's an example of an infinitive verb. On the other hand, 'Let the new girl introduce herself.' Here, 'introduce' is an example of a bare infinitive. Because you can't say 'Let the new girl to introduce herself. If you use 'to' before 'introduce', it won't be a correct sentence then. So, in this sentence introduce is a bare infinitive verb. Have you got the idea?
Rayhan: Fair enough. Now I feel much more confident in choosing the correct form of verbs, that is, gerund, participle and infinitives in different sentences. Thank you so much, dear sister.
Ratri: It's okay. Always for you.

Myself : Hey Shadheen! where are you going?
Shadheen Mother has asked for some medicines. So, I'm going to the pharmacy down the street.
Myself : Okay, but why are you going out without wearing a mask?
Shadheen: I don't like it. Actually I feel suffocated in the mask.
Myself : But, you have to get used to it..
Shadheen: Why is it so urgent?
Myself : It is wearing a mask that can protect us from inhaling the droplets carrying coronavirus. We all know coronavirus spreads when an infected person coughs or sneezes. If one somehow inhales the air containing the virus, they will get the virus too.
Shadheen: Then, the mask will prevent us from inhaling the virus. Now, I can understand it.
Myself: So, never neglect wearing a mask whenever you go outside. You must not remove your mask unnecessarily while you're outside. Though mask doesn't ensure complete protection, it surely minimizes the risk.
Shadheen: Oh, okay! I'll wear a mask from now on. Thanks for your vivid explanation.
Myself: Thanks to you as well.

Myself: Hey, Azad! You are looking so tensed, why?
My friend: I'm tensed for the risk of getting dengue fever.
Myself: Nothing to be so worried. Dengue is not always deadly, rather most of the dengue infected people come round soon.
My friend: Really? But how can I understand whether I get dengue or not?
Myself: It's not so tough. Listen, the common symptoms include sudden high fever, severe headaches, pain behind the eyes, severe joint and muscle pain, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, skin rash, etc.
My friend: Then, what if I have been already infected?
Myself : That's not a serious problem, too. In that case, doctors may suggest you to take rest and drink plenty of liquids, sometimes prescribe paracetamol. However, the best wayto prevent dengue fever is to avoid mosquito bites.

My friend: Then would you please tell me how's that possible?
Myself: Well, to prevent mosquitoes from biting us, we can use mosquito nets and repellents. But at first we must lessen the mosquito population.
My friend: But isn't it really difficult to reduce mosquito population?
Myself: Difficult, but not impossible. We should keep our living places and neighbourhoods clean and get rid stagnant water to prevent Aedes mosquitoes breeding.
My friend: Right you are. Thanks for your valuable suggestions!
Myself : It's my pleasure! Stay healthy!

Azad: How're you?
Babul: I'm well, but a bit worried about the dengue outbreak across the country.
Azad: Me too. What should we do now? Shouldn't we take remedial measures?
Babul: Of course. We must do this first.
Azad: The most effective way to prevent dengue outbreak is to prevent bites by the infected Aedes mosquitoes.
Babul: Right you are. We all should use mosquito repellents for that.
Azad: Yes, obviously we should. But we have to reduce the mosquito population first.
Babul: I do agree. We can do that by destroying their breeding places.
Azad: You're absolutely correct! To do so, we should keep our dwelling places neat and clean. No stagnant water should be allowed in and around our houses.
Babul: Exactly! Besides, we need to use mosquito nets while sleeping. By the way, what should the infected people do to be recovered?
Azad: Usuaully there is no direct cure for dengue. However, doctors generally suggest the infected people to take rest and drink plenty of liquids. Some medicine of paracetamol group is also prescribed.
Badal: Thanks a lot for your specific information.
Azad: It's pleasure, dear. You're always welcome.

Raju: Hi, Rana! How're you?
Rana:Fine, thank you. What about you?
Raju: I'm also fine. I'm feeling so relief that the govt. has initiated the vaccination programme in Bangladesh.
Rana: Actually, the government has taken a plan to vaccinate 80% people by early 2022. The vaccination programme initiated on 27 January 2021. Earlier, only the frontline fighters such as doctors, nurses, police, journalists were vaccinated. But now, everyone who is 18 or above can register for the vaccination. Even, students aged 12-17 years can also register for vaccination.
Raju: How can we register for vaccination?
Rana: It's very easy. For this, you have to download the Surokkha app and log in to Surokkha app from your smart phone. Then you need to fill in the form according to your NID. Here, you have an option to select the vaccination centre. You also have to provide a mobile phone number.
Raju: That's all?
Rana: Oh, no. Then a confirmation message will be sent to your mobile phone. Later, the date of vaccination and the name of your selected centre will also be sent to that number.
Raju: Then what should I do?
Rana: You have to download and print the vaccine card and then go to the centre on the given date with the vaccine card along with the NID card to receive the vaccine.
Raju: It seems easy now!
Rana: That's right! After being vaccinated, you can download the vaccine certificate from the site or the app.,
Raju: Thank you.
