Manners meketh   a man is a true saying. By  manners  we  mean  proper  and  respectful  behaviour to words    all  with  whom   we come  in  contact.

                                    Good  manners  come  naturally  to  a  man   who  is  bread-up  in  a  cultured  family  on  the  contrary   ill-bread  man  bas  no  manners. Good  manners  are,  therefore,  the  sing  that  a  certain   person  has  been  brought  upon  the  rightlines.

                          Good manners are very necessary for progress in life. They help him to win the favors and   confidence    of others. They are sere passport to successions life. An  ill manned  man  ,  on  the other  hand ,  is  disliked  by    everyone   and  has  no chance of   success  in  any  walk  of line he joines.

                                                       Good manners are learn’t early in life. A  child  born  in  a  cultured  family will  learn’t  to be  respectful  to others  because be  will  see  his  elders  behaving  gently. A  child  born  in  an  uncultured  family  will be  disres  perctful  because  be  sees  his  elders   behaving  badly  to words  others.  A child learns whatever be his taught. So a  little  careless nest  on  the part  of  the parents  is likely  to  spoil him  and  if  will be  difficultto  reform  him  after  wards. Let us look to the convenience of others. ‘Live   and let others live’ should be our month.

I have a big fish tank. It is made of   glass. There is white sand at the bottom. I  have  put  pink  and  yellow  sea  shells  on  the  white  sand  .I  grow  some  green  sea  weeds  in  my  fish  tank.   

I have  a lot  of  fish  of  different  colours  in  my  tank.  They are gold, red, blue, yellow and blck.  The gold fish is the most beautiful of them all.  Them   swim  here  and  there ,  up  and  down  and  look  very  pretty.           

                         I feed  them  daily  with  fish  food  they  eat  well and  grow fast.  It is a delight to see them eat. I  derve   much  pleasure  when  I watch     them swim  and  shine  in  the  sunlight.All my friends   come to see   my lovely fish tank.                                                                                              

A  Serious   problem-pollution
                   Environment   is   the Surrouding   Where we live.   Pollution refers   to   all   the   ways   by which   people dirty the   environment.   People pollute   the   environment   in various   ways.   They   pollute   the air   with gases   and   smoke, poison the water   with chemicals   and   other   substances, damage the   soil   with   pesticides   and chemical  fertilizers. People   pollute   the environmental in   various   other   ways.  They   destroy the natural beauty by   scattering rubbish   and  litter.  For  example   the   pilgrims  who  climb   up  the  holy  mountain,  Adams  peak,  scatter  tons  of   polythene  bags  and   rubbish  and destroy  the  natural,  beautiful   shrouding.  The  motor  vehicles  and  machines  sent  out   poisonous   smoke   onto   the  air  and   fill   the   air  with  unpleasant,  disturbing  noises.        
                                    Environmental   pollution   is one of the   serious   problems that we face   today.  Enveryone of us   contributes to this problem   in some   way or other. It  causes  global   warming   and   the   destruction   of  the   ozone  layer   humanity  cannot  survive  without  air,  water  and  soil.  But they   are all  harmed by pollution.
          Pollted air can cause illnesses.  It can kill living beings. Polluted  water   can   cause  many  diseases  and  kill  fish,  and  other  marime  life.  You cannot   grow food   on    polluted land.  Our beautiful country will look. Ugly when our environment is polluted.  
                       The  problem  of  pollution  is  a  highly,  complicated  one, because  many  things  that  binefil  people  cause  environmental    pollution.  Motor  vehicles   have  to  be  run  to  provide  transoortation  for   millions  of  people  and  to  transport   good.  Factories that  cause   air  and  water  pollution  cannot  be closed   down  as  they  provide  employment  to  millions  and   produce  good  that  people  want.  Fertilizers and   pesticides are needed to grow crops.  Or  else  there  will  not  be  enough  food  for  people  to  eat.  Pollution can be gradually   reduced   in several ways.  Scientists  and  engineers  through  research  can  invent  machinery  to  lessen  the  amount  of  pollution  caused  by  motor  vehicles  and  factories.  Already  motor  cars  that  run  on  electricity  have  been  invented  in   many  countries.  The  governments   can   enact  laws  either  to  stop  or  to  reduce  the  pollution   activities.  The  environmentalists  can  play  an  important  role  in  educating  and    directing  the  public  to  maintain  a  pollution  free  environment.
