The importance of agriculture



Since the time man learnt to grow crops, agriculture has been the main soure of his food.Nowaday most of the people in all part of the world,especially in the developing country, are engaged in agricultural activities
man is mainly a grain-eating animal. In asia most of people eat rice,In europe, north america and autralia wheat is the main food crop..Where rice and wheat cannot be grown,millet andand other cereals are grown as food crops.though man also cats meat, he enjoys eating meatonly when he takes it together with rice orbread which is made from wheat. It is therefore clear that grainsare the main source of man's food and grain agriculture's products.
But man,however.cannot live on grains alone.He need other foods too to make his meal for palatable. He has therefore also learnt to grow vagetables, potato,and tomato,fruits.Like grains these thing come from the soil. They have to be plant and grown with great cars.As the result, man has made many experiments.on soil for several centuriesto increase the producetion of crop. Men have also learnt to consume dried leave to fresh themselves.Tea and tobaco, the dried leaves of certain plants, have become very popular as source of refreshment. even coffee and cacoa are products of plant.We also have cotton,jute and other fibres which we use make cloth and several other things for our daily needs .All these plants have therefore become very impotant in agriculture.
In some countries, agriculture is the main source of wealth,the rubber tree and the oil-palm in Malaysia bring million of dolar every year .. in bangladest .the jute plant is the main sourceof wealth. Similarly,in almost every country there is at least one plant which makes a great contribution to the economy of the country .When all there are considered,we arrive at the conclusion that agriculture must remain as the most important occupation man.

my favorite sport

Football is such a popular game that it is played even in the most remote corner of my country. People walk long distances to watch a football match. Even old people enjoy watching this game.

To play this most interesting, I go to the field near my house where my friends wait for me every late afternoon. My friends also love this game very much. We play until dark.

But it is a very hard game. It requires a lot of strength to kick the ball. They must also be skillful in controlling the ball. All this makes the game a difficult game indeed. Playing football however help us healthy and active.

I shall always love this game.

Why are good books good teachers and friends?


It is often said: “Tell me what you are reading and I will tell you who you are”.

For me, a good book is always a good teacher guiding me through life as well as a true companion encouraging me and consulting me in my desperate straits.

In fact, interesting books are a source of invaluable knowledge to those who want to master everything they haven’t known before. Through masterpieces all over the world we can realize the whole outstanding culture and civilization of mankind in every aspect: literature, science, sociology, anthropology, technology and economics.

Nobody denies the important role of good books in developing man’s knowledge. The more we read valuable books the more we become wise and experienced. By reading books, we can get rid of all prejudices and narrow-mindedness. We can no longer live in The Ivory Tower like a recluse and therefore we can get along with other people around us easily.

Next, good books are true companions who always share our joys and sorrows in our daily activities. Are you in low spirits and disappointed in your affairs? Read wise advice through books by profound scholars and authors. Are you sad? Read subtle humorous stories of well-known humorists in the world. All your sorrows and disappointments will vanish at once.

In summary, good books help us train our personality. They help us distinguish the Good from the Bad and they lead us to the True, the Good and the Beautiful.
