1. A Memorable day of my life
Happy days are not infrequent in life. A day is happy when some small desire is fulfilled, a dream is realized, and a hope is materialized. A happy day is lost in the jumble of time, but the happiest day is never forgotten. It remains fresh and lovely in the mind and is thrilling when thought of. It was the 6th of August, the day the Board was to declare my SSC results. I had worked hard during the year and had done well at the examination but still I was nervous, anxious, and uneasy. Hope and desperation got hold of me in turn. At one minute I was sure of my success and at the other I feared failure. Time passed slowly that day and minutes seemed to be years.
All of a sudden, my younger brother rush earns with a newspaper in his hand. I snatched it and began to search for my roll number among those who had secured Grade A. My heart sank as it was not there. Then I searched further but my roll number was not among the students, who had got grade B or C I burst into tears and felt so weak that I could not stand. My younger brother suggested to search in the list of students securing A1 grade. I did so and shouted with glee to find my roll number there. My mother came running from the kitchen to see what had happened. When she came to know about my results she prostrated on the floor and thanked God with tears running down her cheek.
The atmosphere changed suddenly. Everybody seemed glad. The news soon reached my relatives and friends. They began to come to congratulate me with boxes of sweets. Some of my relatives gave me money. My father was at his office. My younger brother telephoned him. He was overjoyed and came home smiling. He gave a five hundred rupees note and embraced me. In the evening my mother had cat led my relatives and friends to dine. She had prepared tasty dishes. Well enjoyed the feast, talked and laughed. In the feast, appeared to be some one of importance and I beamed with glee. It was my happiest day and I will never forget he thrill, the exhilaration and the elevation I felt that day.
2. Load Shedding of CNG
Majority of public transporters in Pakistan do not do their transport business on CNG during these days because CNG is not available, at about three or four days in a week, this causes not only a great loss to the transporters themselves but the life of the commoners is also affected badly. The students face difficulty in going to their educational institutes due to the in availability of transport. School and office staff that uses the public transport reaches their offices late, and this happens more often. Patients suffering from fatal diseases die, due the in availability of transport to the hospitals during the days CNG is not available.
Same is the case with small level businesses, due to CNG load-shedding and public is extremely insulted at the Government due to the on-going CNG load-shedding. Moreover, at this moment is the right time to work out this crisis and Government must take the serious steps to resolve this serious issue otherwise this problem will go out of the margin.
3. Natural Disasters on Earthquake
Earthquake is one of the most terrible natural disasters. Its source can be traced to the early days of earth formation. It is responsible for a lot of damage to living and non-living beings. For many centuries man did not know why earthquakes come and how they happen and to what area they would damage. He only felt that mother earth was angry with him and so caused the earthquake and he always feared it. A natural disaster is the effect of a natural hazard that leads into environmental, financial and human loss.
There are different types of earthquakes, some are small covering small distances and some are large covering larger distances. Earthquakes are caused by sudden movements of rock beneath the earth. Stresses in the earth cause blocks of rock to break, then move along a fault, or crack. Rocks and earth may slip in any direction along a fault-sideways or up and down. Almost 95 out of 100 earthquakes occur in two great belts – the Pacific Belt, and the Mediterranean Belt. Most of the world’s active volcanoes and young mountain ranges are in these areas an erupting volcano sometimes may cause an earthquake. Earthquakes bring widespread distraction. Shock waves go in all direction from the center of an earthquake.
The vibrations cause the earth to tremble and crack. rumbles like thunder may accompany the tremor. Cities near the center of the quake may be hard hit. Fires often rage out of control because of damage to gas mains, water pipes, and power lines. Building may fall. Landslides may bury villages or change mountain shapes River courses sometimes are changed by upheavals. Lakes and Waterfalls may be formed by shifts in land.
It is true that a natural disaster is a natural process, and we cannot stop it with the limited knowledge of nature. But by making certain preparations, we can reduce the magnitude of the loss to life and property. First of all, we should reduce global warming which is the root cause of all the problems. We should also have insurance policies so that we could have sufficient.
money to rebuild our lives after any such disaster. The scientists should invent advance warning systems. While construction we should make sure that it is strong enough to withstand earthquakes. We should educate people about evacuation during any disaster.
