Important Paragraphs for HSC Students
Human Rights
Human right is the basic right that a person should enjoy from birth until death. This is regardless where a person is born from, what he/she believes and what social status he holds. This right can never be taken away from him. Sometimes, he may be restricted if he breaks the law.Human rights include freedom of expression, freedom of speech, right to education right to basic needs. One should enjoy the freedom to express one’s views and ideas without interruption from others. He has the right to be safe in his country and the government should ensure his protection. Citizens of a country should enjoy full freedom and have right to go to another country and return whenever they wish. Everyone should act in the spirit of brotherhood.
The condition of human rights in Bangladesh is not up to the mark. Especially the children and women are deprived of enjoying human rights. Even now the rural women are neglected and bereft of fundamental rights. The street children are still deprived of all sorts of human rights. So to improve their condition, people from all walks of life should come forward and extend their helping hand and the government must take steps as well.It is important that every country’s society should protect human rights for its safety, security, peace and prosperity.
Female Education
Almost half of the total population of Bangladesh are women. They are not neglected at all. But unfortunately most of them are illiterate. Most men and not only men but also women feel that women's education is not that important. This is because they are not enlightened. Women's education is very essential for the welfare of a country. However, many men are not encouraged to participate in economic activities. No nation can prosper without educating half the population of the country.
Realizing the importance of education for women students, our government has taken many steps for their education. First, the government provides scholarships for women's education. This financial help encourages many parents to send their daughters to school. Besides, a large number of elderly and illiterate women are taking education in night schools. Media is also playing a big role by broadcasting films, dramas, cartoons which make people aware about women education. By doing this one day all women will be educated and get the respect they deserve.
Civic Engagemet

Addressing public issues and enhancing the quality of the community are the two main objectives of civic involvement. There are various ways to engage in civic life, starting with personal volunteering. initiatives to involve organizations, the community, and government in activities like voting. This engagement may include directly addressing a problem through personal work, community-based, or work through the institutions of representative democracy.

Technical Education and General Education
Education is the backbone of a nation. Education enlightens a person. In this respect, both types of education play significant roles in the development of a nation. General education usually makes a man highly education. But this type of education often fails to establish a man in his life, because general education does not make a person specialized. As a result, a number of highly education persons remain unemployed and finally, they become the burden of the country. On the other hand, a man who has technical education, can somehow manage a job or may be self-reliant. Ours is the age of survival of the fittest. So, general education often cannot provide a man with any suitable job. Rather it produces highly education clerks. General education may fulfill the demand of education but it cannot fulfill one’s basic needs. A country, like Bangladesh needs devoted workers’ which only technical education may provide. Surprisingly, it is seen that one, completing his MBBS course, serves in a bank or in any commercial institution. Then where, remains the value of that degree? A moneyed man may be generally educated. He can contribute to the country and nation by his knowledge. Conversely, technical education is job oriented. It ensures getting a job in the respective field, whereas general education increases tension and frustration. Technical education should be compulsory to all. On the contrary general education should be only for the selected persons. Regarding our socio-economic condition, technical education is inevitable. Clerks and officials are needed, but some skilled workers are more important. We should bear in mind that there is no alternative to production and this production is possible on the part of the skilled persons. A skilled worker is preferable to a highly education unemployed person. Both types of education are welcome so long as education and knowledge are concerned. But they should be distinguished if the question of reality and pragmatic value arises.
