A fixed price shop
A shop is very familiar palace to us. A shop is available in the place where people live or use to move around. There are many kind of shop around us. They have many names like grocery shop, variety store, cosmetics shop etc. But they have two forms. One is fixed price shop and another is variable pricing shop. The term, fixed price shop, is used to mean the price of a good or a service is not subject to bargaining in the shop. The term commonly indicates that an external agent, such as a merchant or the government, has set a price level, which may not be changed for individual sales. In the case of governments, this may be due to price controls. On the other hand, Variable pricing is a form of pricing of products or services as distinct from a fixed price. Traditional examples include auctions, bargaining, discounts, price skimming, penetration pricing and ‘price shading’ (where the seller may vary the price by a certain amount or percentage as required). Stock markets and foreign exchange markets are based in variable pricing, with pricing models generally becoming more sophisticated driven in part by reduced transaction costs using modern information technology; notably examples include yield management and pricing. Finally it is clear to us that the fixed price shop is good because all the buyers take a thing at the same price from it. None is deceived from it

Eating in a Restaurant
If you are looking for a good place with Bangladeshi food, I will recommend you the Ruposi Bangla. It is my favorite restaurant to eat in. The restaurant offers a wide variety of Bangladeshi food that I love. I go there with my friends at least once a month. Every time I go there, I enjoy the atmosphere of the restaurant, the taste of the food, and the friendly service. The Ruposi Bangla is a good place where I always experience welcoming atmosphere. The decoration makes me feel like I am taking food in my house. The service is great from the time I walk through the door of the restaurant. The servers are very nice while taking dinner orders and taking care of all guests. I also love the Bangladeshi specialties. I usually start with their homemade Rice, Vegetable, Meat Chicken, Egg, Snacks, Fries, Drinks, Curries, Fish, Dal and Salad. After, I order delicious lasagna, stuffed ravioli, or chicken and seafood Alfredo. I like all the food they serve in the hotel, and I tried all of the dishes. Sometimes, if it is hard to decide what I would like to eat, I order a special mix of the three meals on one plate. I often go to the Ruposi Bangla because I am always satisfied with the food. The Ruposi Bangla is a great traditional family restaurant where I like to go with my friends. During my every visit, I enjoy the spectacular food and excellent service.

How to Use a Dictionary
Using a dictionary is not a hard task for anybody if he or she knows the letters of the language and knows the arrangement of the letters that are used in the dictionary. Generally, a dictionary is designed alphabetically. The first letter of a language comes in the beginning of the dictionary. Then they are maintained in an organized way in order to arranging these words correctly. The page starts with a single letter A or B or …. Then the words are written one after another like in the alphabet. The main words are designed in bold. The pronunciations are mentioned in the brocket with the symbols of the language. Gradually the meanings of the words are written with their different uses by making sentences. Sometimes the antonyms and the synonyms are given. Different parts of speeches are also mentioned for better understanding. So, if anybody wants to use a dictionary he has to know the letters of the language and their sequences. Finding out the meaning of a word, he has to search the first letter of the word and then he can add the second letter with the first letter. He should not search the whole words. Only he should search the word which is required. According to the letters of the words, he can search and the first two or three letters of the words are mentioned on the top of the page of the dictionary. Again, if he wants to understand the pronunciation of the words he has to learn the symbols of the language that are mentioned in the dictionary. In this process anybody can use a dictionary.
My First Day at School
The date was 8th January when I was given admission and got admitted in the school in class I. At that time I was six years old and I was going to school with my father in a rickshaw. It took us half an hour to reach the school. I saw many students on the school campus. Some were playing and some were talking to each other. I didn’t know anyone. So I was a little afraid. My mother soon took me to the Headmaster. He asked me a few questions and I answered them intelligently. He was very pleased and he put his hand on my shoulder and praised me very much. Then I was admitted to class 1. The Headmaster was a very nice person. He called a teacher and said to her to take me to the class. The class teacher welcomed me and gave me a seat. All the students in the class were staring at me. I felt a bit nervous to see all the new faces. But soon I became easy. I could make friends with two or three students sitting close to me. After that period the boys of my class made fun of me and pulled my cheeks. I got annoyed but gradually I became quite normal. I even made a few friends and everything became all right. A new place is a new experience. So my first day at school is a new experience in my life. I will remember the day as long as I live.

A Journey/ Trip by Air
An air journey is the fastest way of traveling to the distance places. It is more comfortable and costly than others. If someone wants to travel foreign country he has to arrange a passport and visa before boarding a plane. On the day of departure, he has to do some particular things. First, he has to reach the airport before the flight. Then he should collect a form from the immigration booth and fills up it correctly. Then he has to hand his visa, passport and departure card to an immigration officer. If the officer gets the papers ok, he will keep the departure card and stamp the passport and visa to the passenger. For security, passengers are not allowed to carry more than 100 ml of liquid, lotion, gel or cream in their carry-on luggage. After completing all the formalities, he has to wait until his row number is announced. When he sits on his seat, he will be given some necessary instruments. Then the captain will announce the take off time and approximates landing time. Few minutes later after taking off, a cabin crew will come with some snacks and drinks. Then the captain will suggest what to do in the event of an emergency. He will inform when and how to use the oxygen musk and life vest. The passengers will find all safety information in the card located in the seat pocket in front of them. They are strongly suggested to read it before the take-off. Above all, an air flight is, exciting, enjoyable and also fascinating.
Our Culture/ Bangladeshi Culture
The culture of a society means the way of living, eating habit, cultural functions, different kinds of festivals, clothes, language, religion, values, policies, tradition etc. It is the complete picture of a nation and the most important and basic concept of sociology. There are some characteristics of culture. Firstly, it must be social and it is developed from the society and social communication. Secondly, all the rules of a culture are not learnt by the people in the society. Some are learned and some are acquired. The cultural activities of a society are totally different from another society. Cultural elements like the way of living, eating habit, cultural functions, different kinds of festivals, clothes, language, religion, values, policies, tradition etc. are totally different from other cultural elements. In our culture, our songs are based on rural and idyllic pictures of life. We have jari, sari, bhatiali, polligiti, religious and mystic songs. Similarly, we have our own food habits like eating rice and fish. Again, we have our traditional dress like lungi, Panjabi, shirt, saree and blouse. Nowadays, it is seen that our cultural activities are changing because of the influence of the western culture. So, our young generation is no longer interested in our folk or idyllic songs. They are fascinated by Hindi or English music. In summary, Culture is a part of our life and we are not out of our own culture. We live and grow up in the midst of our own culture.
Bangladeshi Food
Bangladesh is rich with various types of foods which enrich our culture and make it familiar among the people of other nations in the world. There are different types of foods in Bangladesh which are totally dissimilar from one another from the side of taste and value. Generally, rice, dal, fish, vegetable and meat are our main dishes and the people of Bangladesh take three meals in a day. In the morning, we take breakfast where the urban people take ruti, porota, biscuit, vegetable, chicken, tea etc. and the rural people take muri, khoi, pitha or stale rice with chilly. In lunch, the people of different range take different foods according to their own choice and demand. Most of the people take rice, dal, vegetable and fish in their lunch. There’s a common saying: “Fish and rice make a Bengali.” At the time of cooking our cook uses different types of spices like garlic, peppers, turmeric, onion, cinnamon, coriander, cumin, or mustard seed etc. that make our foods more tasty. In our daily meals we generally take mixed vegetables, fish bhuna, fried okra, Bhorta, fried eggplant, chicken curry, lentils, Egg curry, beef, mutton etc. with rice. Again in our snacks we normally take Paratha, Samosa, Singara, puri, fried roti stuffed with eggs, Naan, Pitha, Mishti Doi and Ras Malai. After taking our meals we usually drink tea, milk and cool drinks. We also take various types of fruits in our leisure time; mango, jack fruits, banana, pine apple, orange, apple, guava, water melon and other seasonal fruits are taken according to the season and choice.
