I received
your letter yesterday. I am very glad to know that you are enjoying good
health. I was running a temperature due to bad throat. But it was a temporary
ailment. I have recovered now. You need not worry about my health. I am
perfectly all right. I am taking good care of my diet. I take exercise
regularly. I hope that after these assurances you will stop worrying about
me.

Dear Mother,
|
|
I am sorry,
I did not write to you earlier as I was busy preparing for my test in
Physics. It was held yesterday. My performance in the test is satisfactory, I
hope to get full marks in it. I attempted eleven questions. The answer to one
question was wrong. But it was an extra question. I hope that you are
satisfied with my explanation now.

|
Dear Father,
|
|
I have been
planning to write to you for many days but could not find time to do so. My
exams are drawing near and I am busy preparing for them. I have already
revised my course. You need not worry about my studies.
|
|
The only
problem that I face these days is that I am short of money as I bought some
books which has upset my budget. I shall be very grateful if you send me at
least two thousand rupees to pay my hostel dues and meet my other needs.

|
Dear Ahmad,
|
|
I hope this
letter finds you in the best of health spirits. You have now been promoted to
class 9th. It is time for you to decide whether you would like to study
humanities or science subjects. The world has progressed very much in the
field of science. If we want to keep pace with it, we must keep our knowledge
of science up-to-date. Everyone should know the basics of science so I would
advise you to study science at least up to matriculation level.

refuse. I assure you that I shall take care of your books. I shall try to

Dear Aamer,
|
|
I have
just received the news of your mother’s death. I am really shocked to hear
it. She was very noble lady. I had special attachment to her. She loved me as
her own son. But the laws of nature are absolute. We have to bow before them.
|
|
All my
sympathies are with you. I hope that you will bear this loss with patience
and courage. May her soul rest in heaven!

|
Dear Ahmad,
|
|
I met
Munir last night and he informed me that you were over worked in your
studies. You stay awake till late night and have become very weak. I
appreciate your love for knowledge but it must not be allowed to damage your
health. First take care of your health, then of your studies. Try to sleep
early and develop a habit of taking morning walk. I suggest you to have a
light exercise in the morning also.
|
|
I hope
that you will give attention to my advice.

Dear Sammrah,
|
|
I hope
that you are in good health. I received your gift of a wrist watch on my
birth day two days ago. It is a beautiful watch. I needed it badly too as I
happened to lose my watch in a mishap a few days ago. I promise that I shall
take care of it. It will also help to make me punctual.

you again for this precious gift.

Dialogue
between a teacher and a student
|
|
|
Teacher:
|
Hello Fauzia! You are a bit late
today.
|
|
|
Fauzia:
|
Yes, Madam, I am sorry.
|
|
|
Teacher:
|
Well. What happened?
|
|
|
Fauzia:
|
The school bus was right on
schedule. It was about to cross the canal bridge when it came to a halt with
a jerk. The tyre had gone flat.
|
|
|
Teacher:
|
I see. It's none of your fault then!
|
|
|
Fauzia:
|
One thing more, Madam. The driver
had no jack with him. He waved to other vehicles but they would not stop.
Nobody seemed willing to oblige at this rush hour.
|
|
|
Teacher:
|
Well. What did you do then? You came
by another bus. Didn't you?
|
|
|
Fauzia:
|
No, Madam, we left the bus where it
was and walked up to school all the way.
|
|
|
Teacher:
|
Well done! You are a brave girl
indeed. Now, girls let us get going with our lesson.
|
|
|

Dialogue
between two students regarding Salat
|
|
|
Osama:
|
Well, now I'd like to take rest for
a while. I've had my meal, you know.
|
|
|
Salman:
|
Ok. You take rest while I fix this
picture of a landscape on the wall. Where is the sticky tape?
|
|
|
Osama:
|
Out there in the drawer.
|
|
|
Salman:
|
Well, I think this picture needs to
be a bit higher up. How do you like it Osama?
|
|
|
Osama:
|
Lovely! Good, well done. It looks
nice up there. Now let us go for namaz to the masjid.
|
|
|
Salman:
|
I am going to the market. I shall
not be long.
|
|
|
Osama:
|
No, namaz first. Have you heard the
Moezzin's call for salat? Haven't you?
|
|
|
Salman:
|
Sure, I have but I am going out.
It's very urgent. My motor bike is out at the gate. Osama: There is nothing
in the world that ought to be more urgent than a namaz.
|
|
|
Salman:
|
I don't really understand it. Art is
long and life is short. There is so much to do in the world. There is so much fun-games,
sports, T.V., cricket, world cups, videos, feature films, fun-fairs,
shopping, loitering and break and break and break. Sorry, lam going.
|
|
|
Osama:
|
Dear me! Who am I to hold you back?
Dear as you are to me, I sincerely wish that you offer namaz. Namaz gives us
peace, freshness, balance, courage, hope, goodness in our short life here on
the earth, and eternal goodness in the life hereafter.
|
|
|
Salman:
|
Oh, I am sick of your sermons,
Osama!
|
|
|
Osama:
|
See, Allah has given us eyes, ears,
heart, hands, legs and brain. Salman, you see such a lovely world is there
around us. Great gifts are they! Aren't they? We must thank Allah - the
Merciful, the Sustainer. As Muslims we offer namaz and this is how we thank
Allah.
|
|
|
Salman:
|
All right. I fear Allah. I love Him,
too. I'll go with you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dialogue
asking one's way
|
|
|
A:
|
Excuse me for troubling you sir, but
can you tell me the way to the museum?
|
|
|
B:
|
Certainly. Keep straight on along
this road, take the first turn to the right, and that will take you to a green
square with flagpoles. That is Istanbul Square; cross it, and you'll see a
comer of a red-brick building with a couple of domes. That is the museum.
|
|
|
A:
|
Thanks very much indeed.
|
|
|
B:
|
My pleasure.
|
|
|
(A goes on walking and takes the
wrong turn. He wanders around a good deal. Tired and upset, he talks to a
passer-by.)
|
|
|
A:
|
Pardon me, sir, does this road
leadto the museum?
|
|
|
B:
|
I am sorry, sir. I don't know. I am
a complete stranger here myself. (Another gentleman can hearing this, stops.)
|
|
|
C:
|
Yes. Keep straight this way for over
a mile and a half until you come to Chowk Azadi, then turn to the left. But
it is a good way.
|
|
|
A:
|
How far, do you think?
|
|
|
C:
|
Over two miles, I should say. I'd
take a bus, if l were you.
|
|
|
A:
|
What number or route please?
|
|
|
C:
|
Take number 117 when you come to
Chowk Azadi. That will take you to the museum.
|
|
|
A:
|
Thanks.

Dialogue
between a brother and a sister concerning time
|
|
|
Ali:
|
What is the time?
|
|
|
Fatimah:
|
It is nearly five minutes to eight
by my watch.
|
|
|

you are to catch that train to Rawalpindi. Fatimah: Why, when is it due out?
|
|
|
Ali:
|
At quarter past nine exactly.
|
|
|
Fatimah:
|
Oh, never mind. We have plenty of
time.
|
|
|
Ali:
|
I am not so sure of that. What on
earth have you been doing? What time did you get up?
|
|
|
Fatimah:
|
I woke up before half-past five.
Then I performed ablution and offered my morning salat. Now breakfast is
ready. Don't look at me like that.
|
|
|
Ali:
|
For Heaven's sake, get ready I We
have not a minute to lose. Time flies, you know.

you? Customer: I should like to be measured fora suit.
|
|
|
Tailor:
|
With pleasure, Sir, kindly step this
way. What style and shade would you prefer?
|
|
|
Customer:
|
I want an ordinary lounge suit made
of brown tweed. How much would the stitching cost?
|
|
|
Tailor:
|
I could make you a suit for Rs.
2000/-. Itis quite reasonable, sir. Customer:
That's right.
|
|
|
Tailor:
|
Could you manage to call in sometime
next week for the try?

Yes, just give me a ring. Here is my
card.

|
|
Yasir:
|
Very interesting, Dad.
|
|
|
Anne:
|
Father I'll hear it again and then
we will practise it. Yasser will act out as the tailor, and I shall be the
customer.
