A dialogue between two friends
regarding their aim in life
Nayeem: Hello Karim, how are you?
Karim: Hi Nayeem! I’m fine, and you?
Nayeem: I’m fine too. What were you thinking about?
Karim: Oh, actually I was wondering what I want to be in the future.
Nayeem: Then, have you already fixed your aim in life?
Karim: Of course. Every person has his or her aim in life. Similarly, I also
have my own goal.
Nayeem: That’s great! What is it?
Karim: I want to be a doctor in the future.
Nayeem: Really? Why have you chosen that?
Karim: Well, I believe a doctor can serve suffering humanity best. Most
people in our country are poor and can't afford proper treatment. I
want to treat them for free. If I become successful, I also dream of
setting up a charitable dispensary.
Nayeem: That’s very noble of you. But getting into medical college is
tough these days.
Karim: I know. That’s why I’m working hard to achieve academic
excellence.
Karim: And what about you? What’s your aim in life?
Nayeem: I want to be a computer engineer.
Karim: Oh, nice! Why a computer engineer?
Nayeem: Technology is shaping the future. I want to create software
and apps that make life easier for people. I’m especially interested in
cybersecurity and AI.
Karim: That’s amazing. I’m sure you’ll do great.
Nayeem: Thanks! I wish the same for you. May both our dreams come
true.
Karim: Thank you very much.
Nayeem: You’re best welcome.
2.A dialogue between two friends who
met after a long time
Fahim: Good morning, Sakib.
Sakib: Good morning, Fahim. How do you do?
Fahim: Quite fine. It's a long time since I saw you last. When did you
come back?
Sakib: Just yesterday. The university has been closed for Eid vacation. I
couldn't come earlier. But what about Rajib?
Fahim: Rajib is quite fine. He's going strong with his football. Well, have
you given up playing cricket?
Sakib: No, not at all. Rather, I've been playing even more. We had a
tournament last month, and I scored a half-century in the final!
Fahim: That's impressive! What about the annual sports at your
university?
Sakib: It’s next month. I’ve started practicing for the 100-meter sprint
and long jump. And you?
Fahim: Ours was held in March. Nice occasion, really. I missed you very
much.
Sakib: Couldn't you bag the championship?
Fahim: Oh yes, certainly. I had to undergo long practice sessions in long
runs and high jumps.
Sakib: Hearty congratulations, Fahim.
Fahim: Thank you very much. It was tiring, but worth it. What about
your story writing?
Sakib: I’m writing, no doubt, but none of them has yet been published.
I’ve sent one to a magazine though — fingers crossed!
Fahim: That’s great. What’s the story about?
Sakib: It’s a mystery based in our town — with a twist ending. I tried to
blend suspense with a bit of humor.
Fahim: Sounds exciting! Let me read it once it's out. Maybe you’ll
become a famous writer one day.
Sakib: Haha, let’s hope so. And maybe you’ll become an Olympic
athlete!
Fahim: Deal. Let’s both aim high.
3. A dialogue between a father and his
son about the choice of the latter's
career
Father: Good morning, hasib! How are you?
Son: Good morning, father. I am fine and you?
Father: I am also fine. I am glad that you have passed the examination
with good score. Now you have to decide which way you will proceed.
Son: Yes, father, I will act up to your advice.
Father: But I want to know your mind first. Our choice must be to your
liking.
Son: I want to be a Computer Engineer, if you agree.
Father: Yes, it is an excellent profession. By being a skilled computer
engineer, you can do many things for the nation. But have you ever
thought over the hard work, it will mean?
Son: Yes, father, I think no work is too hard for me in this profession.
Father: All these are true. But do not forget that this profession also
needs much tolerance and sacrifice.
Son: You are right. I think nothing is impossible if I study regularly and
sincerely.
Father: Excellent! I agree with you whole-heartedly. But I would advise
you to study general science first before you join in an Engineering
University.
Son: Yes, father, I will study the Science Course in a reputed college. But
it means additional expense.
Father: Oh, no, my boy! You need not worry about expense. I will
cheerfully pay all your expenses in this connection, as I know my money
will be well spent.
Son: You are so kind to me, father.
Father: And you are so good to us, dear son. I fully do support your
future plan.
Son: Thank you, father.
4.A dialogue between two school friends on the annual
sports of their school
Rahul: Hey Anaya! Sports Day yesterday was awesome, wasn’t it?
Anaya: Totally! Everything was so well-organized. The march past, the
races, even the tug-of-war—it was all so exciting.
Rahul: You were amazing in the 100-meter race! I was cheering for you
like crazy.
Anaya: Thanks! I didn’t expect to win, but it felt great. I saw you in the
relay—your team was really fast.
Rahul: Yeah, we came second. It was close! The crowd cheering made it
feel like a real stadium.
Anaya: I know! Even the lemon-and-spoon race for juniors was so funny.
That one boy kept dropping the lemon but didn’t give up.
Rahul: And the teachers vs. students’ tug-of-war! I thought the teachers
would lose, but they pulled through somehow.
Anaya: Our English teacher was so strong! I never imagined she had
that kind of energy.
Rahul: Same! And the chief guest's speech was inspiring. I liked how he
said sports teach us teamwork and discipline.
Anaya: Yes, and he reminded us that participation is more important
than just winning. That really stayed with me.
Rahul: True. Oh, and the prize ceremony was fun! I loved how everyone
clapped so loudly when someone’s name was announced.
Anaya: Did you win any other medals?
Rahul: Just the relay silver and a participation certificate for shot put.
But I’m happy—my parents were proud.
Anaya: Same here! It was such a fun day. I’m already looking forward to
next year’s Sports Day.
Rahul: Me too. Let’s both aim for gold next time!
5.A dialogue on mailing a package at a post office
Ravi: Good morning, sir. I’d like to mail this package to Mumbai.
Postmaster: Good morning! Sure, let me take a look. Hmm, this is a
medium-sized parcel. What’s inside?
Ravi: It’s a set of books. Around 2.5 kilograms, I think.
Postmaster: Alright. Since it’s over 2 kilograms, we’ll have to send it as a
parcel, not regular mail. Do you know the dimensions?
Ravi: Not exactly, but it’s about 12 inches long, 9 wide, and maybe 4
inches tall.
Postmaster: That’s fine. It fits within our standard parcel size limit. Do
you want regular parcel service or speed post?
Ravi: What’s the difference?
Postmaster: Regular parcel will take about 5 to 7 days. Speed post is
faster—usually 2 to 3 days—but it costs a bit more.
Ravi: I think I’ll go with speed post. It’s a gift and I want it to reach on
time.
Postmaster: No problem. Please fill out this form, and make sure the
address is written clearly on the package.
Ravi: Sure, I’ve already written the address and return details. Here you
go.
Postmaster: Great. That makes my job easier. That’ll be ₹180 for speed
post. You can pay here—cash or card?
Ravi: I’ll pay in cash. Here's the amount. Will I get a tracking number?
Postmaster: Yes, of course. Here’s your receipt with the tracking ID
printed at the bottom. You can check the delivery status online or on
our app.
Ravi: That’s convenient. And it'll be delivered directly to the recipient,
right?
Postmaster: Yes, right to the doorstep. Just make sure someone is
available to receive it.
Ravi: Perfect. Thanks a lot for your help!
Postmaster: You’re welcome!
6.A dialogue between two friends on the value of
physical exercise
Neha: Hey Simran! You’re looking so energetic these days. What’s the
secret?
Simran: Hey! I’ve started waking up early and going for a walk every
morning. It’s really refreshing and makes me feel active all day.
Neha: Morning walks? That sounds healthy, but I can never get out of
bed that early.
Simran: It was tough at first, but once I got used to it, I started enjoying
it. Now, it feels like the best part of my day.
Neha: That’s interesting. I’ve been feeling lazy and tired a lot lately.
Maybe some exercise would help me too.
Simran: Definitely! Physical exercise helps your body and your mind.
Even 20–30 minutes a day makes a huge difference.
Neha: But I don’t like gyms or running. I don’t think I’d stick with that
kind of routine.
Simran: You don’t need to go to the gym. You could try yoga, cycling, or
even dancing. Anything that gets your body moving counts.
Neha: Oh, I love dancing! I used to do it during school functions. Maybe
I could start again.
Simran: That’s perfect! Dancing is fun and keeps you fit. Plus, it reduces
stress and boosts your mood.
Neha: I’ve heard exercise also helps with concentration. Is that true?
Simran: Yes! Since I started my routine, I’ve been focusing better in class
and feeling less stressed about studies.
Neha: That sounds amazing. I really need that kind of motivation.
Maybe I’ll start with a walk in the evening.
Simran: That’s a great start! I’ll join you if you want. It’s always easier
with a friend.
Neha: I’d love that. Thanks for encouraging me, Simran!
Simran: Anytime! Let’s make fitness a part of our daily lives.
