English Learning Strategies

The most popular Bangladeshi style is 'short-cut' in the fields of academic education and Islam...
The more the students fo**le and kiss the guide books, the better so far as the grades are concerned. "Stupidity thy name is text-book"!..
Actually, the more you read, the more you forget. The more you select and memorise, the more you gain and save the time. In the same way, many Muslims perform rituals selectively--prayers five times a day and a whole month-long fast a year...
The only difference is: the former style is evaluated and graded as the cleverest and most effective by the traditional teachers and the latter by the Almighty...
Can the latter style be wrongly judged? A lot more of other humanitarian duties such as truthfulness, helpfulness, equality, impartiality, duties on parents, relatives, neighbours or the poor and the helpless remain unfulfilled...
So what? "Surf excel ase na?" As surf excel can easily wash away your dirt and spots, so can a prayer all your misdeeds. "As you sow, so you reap."..
