THE STRANGER

 

Raghav , “a typical Indian ,working for a private company , he was short stature ,with small hair  and a  paunch , always formally dress .He would never be late , he worked from morning 9 o’clock to  5 o’clock .He was habitual  to  be on time .He would carry his black Tiffin box and a file in his hand .By nature he was man of few words ,  he  had working relationship with all ,he was in his mid 40’s and unmarried man , the only loving people around him ,were his mother and sphincter sister .He had a typical monotonous life .

                  It was winter season , when Raghav was on his way to  office ,he used to take  fob (fly over bridge ,which is normally used  to cross the railways lines in india ) ,fob bridges are always overcrowded in India ,people normally diverge from here to their respective destination ,everything was same as the normal day ,Raghav had reached on time he was about to cross the FOB ,in a spur, his eyes stuck to a stranger, he was in his pure white colour shirt and trousers, shining like a swan in a water, he looked so different , we were looking at each other,and he just grin at me .

I could not resist his smile , “how can I ,its not possible ,that guy looks different from the crowd, I ran from the place as I was getting late .The whole day one thing that came  to my mind was ,”who is he” ,why did he smiled at me , I was upset ,since I didn’t have  any colleague in my office ,I couldn’t share my feelings with them. It was around 4.30 pm and we were about to leave  ,but still this stranger, I couldn’t forget grin on his face ,was it for me ? Am I looking too insane today ,why ?”why me “ ,what’s wrong today ,why I am giving him so much of importance .Is he so important?

              Should  I tell this incident to my mother and sister , but then they will be so tense ,what should  I tell them ,its my fear thats all ,everything will be normal tomorrow .

                      It was just another  day for me ,I was on time ,just I reached the FOB, I was very apprehensive ,when I took few steps

  My heart was  in my mouth ,as i could see the same face ,and just could not describe his witty smile ...........who is he ?
 

 

 

 

life is a beautiful thing when we feel happiness
life isn't a beautiful thing when we feel sadness  
                      but..
either life beautiful or not we have to feel this..

some people think if we ar rich....life is beautiful  
                                                            but.....
life isn't beautiful when u ar only rich; from ur pocket,
you should have be rich from ur heart for make your life beautifully!!
                                       Bcoz..
we cant buy happiness by money,we  cant buy love by money,actually  we cant make smile by money...

Think a minute!!

Israeli commandos have attacked a flotilla of aid-carrying ships off the coast of the Gaza Strip, killing up to 19 people on board.

Dozens of others were injured when troops raided the convoy of six ships, dubbed the Freedom Flotilla, early on Monday.

Israel said activists on board attacked its commandos as they boarded the ships, while the flotilla's organisers said the Israeli forces opened fire first, as soon as they stormed the convoy.

What you think about what's hapend near the coast of Gaza Strip ?

 

When should we use 'made of' and when should we use 'made from'? Do they have different meanings?

Let's start by looking at some examples:

We might say:

"This shirt is made of cotton"
"This house is made of bricks" OR
"The keyboard I use on my computer is made of plastic."

On the other hand, we might say:

"Paper is made from trees."
"Wine is made from grapes." OR
"This cake is made from all natural ingredients."

So, if you think about the first group of examples, you'll notice that there's a common theme - a common pattern.

The cotton in the shirt is still cotton – it hasn't changed its form and
become something else.
In the same way, the bricks in the walls of the house – they're still bricks. They didn't stop being bricks when the house was made. And the plastic in my computer keyboard is still plastic.

So we say:

"The shirt is made of cotton."
"The house is made of bricks."
"The keyboard is made of plastic."

On the other hand, the trees in the example where we say:

"The paper is made from trees."
These trees are not trees anymore – they stopped being trees when they became paper.

And if we say:

"Wine is made from grapes."
The grapes are no longer grapes – they've been changed into a different type of stuff –
a different type of substance - in this case, wine.
And the flour and the eggs and the sugar in the example about the cake; these have all
changed their forms as well when they became cake.

So this is the rule:

If something keeps its form, we use 'made of''
But if the form is changed during the process of making, then we use 'made from'.

Skill (1): Subjects and Verbs

You know that a sentence in English should have a subject and a verb. The most common types of problems that you will encounter in the Structure section of the TOEFL test are related to subjects and verbs; perhaps the sentence is missing either the subject, or the verb, or both; perhaps the sentence has an extra subject or verb.

Example I

______was ringing continuously for hours.

(A) Loudly

(B) In the morning

(C) The phone

(D) The bells

Analysis:

In this example, you should notice immediately that there is a verb, was ringing, but there is no subject. Answer (C) is the best answer because it is a singular subject that agrees with the singular verb was ringing. Answer (A), loudly, and answer (B), in the morning, are not subjects, so they are not correct. Although answer (D), bells, could be a subject, it is not correct because bells is plural and it does not agree with the singular verb was ringing.

Example II

Newspapers _______ every morning and every evening.

(A) delivery

(B) are delivered

(C) on time

(D) regularly

Analysis:

In this example, you should notice immediately that the sentence has a subject, newspapers, but that there is no verb. Because answer (B), are delivered, is a verb, it is the best answer. Answers (A), (C), and (D) are not verbs, so they are not correct.

Example III

The plane __________ landing at the airport in five minutes.

(A) it is

(B) it really is

(C) is descending

(D) will be

Analysis:

This sentence has a subject, plane, and has part of a verb, landing; to be correct, some form of the verb be is needed to make the verb complete. Answers (A) and (B) are incorrect because the sentence already has a subject, plane, and does not need the extra subject it. Answer (C) is incorrect because descending is an extra part of a verb that is unnecessary because of landing. Answer (D) is the best answer; will be together with landing is a complete verb.

Conclusion

A sentence in English must have at least one subject and one verb. The first thing you should do as you read a sentence in the Structure section of the TOEFL test is to find the subject and the verb.

 when she was just passing the lane ,where i was like a part of crowd ,she just came close to me and she passed the same lane ,hmmm.....yes that smell of her body , i still cant forget ,she looked at me for a while and that was enough for me. The whole day i could not forget her ,her smell was part of me now .

i wish i could see her one more time ,but Kolkata which is supposed to be the busiest city , i feel its like ,searching for water in a desert .But god have different plans ,i again could see her in a coffee parlour ,but with a man besides her ,he was very cosy .I was too hurt for the first time , as if she was mine and no one can touch her , i sat opposite to her ,looking to those beautiful eyes ,she too noticed me .

Days passed , i  just started to forget her , but one day i went to  a friends party ,i saw a girl in blue  dress ,she was near  the bar counter ,helping herself with a drink ,initially i could not see her face ,when i went near the bar counter she turned and i could she the same old face ,more charming and as beautiful as swan in a water .”God” ,not again ,i said to my self .

This time i could not she  that man with her , i started with a “hi”, and we started our conversation .But i was sad to know that she was married ,her husband was out on a business tour for a month ,but somehow i just loved her company ,her beautiful eyes ,whenever she chatted with me ,i looked at her eyes and i was just going deeper and deeper like an ocean ,”still deep like a ocean “ ,what eyes  the creator has created .................

The fact was that i don’t want to come out of it ,  I was so restless that when this day will come to end and i could see tomorrows’ evening ,at home i locked my self so that no one would disturb me ,my mom never bothered me when I needed the privacy, I was thinking about her .I slumbered for a while ,but waked ,i was just looking for a perfect attire for the evening date, of mine .  I could see a tuxedo in my wardrobe, I was imagining, how i would look  ,hmm that’s perfect .

I called her in the morning ,but i didn’t let her know how i was feeling .She wanted to know whether i was going to come , and i said it with cool mind , i have some work ,but i will surely manage it  ,as if  I  was Bill Gates ,”who is always busy “, she said me sharp 7,o’clock ,for the first time in my life i felt why evenings are so long .

It was 5 o’clock  and i didn’t want to be late this time , i took my tuxedo from my  wardrobe, i got ready for my date ,when i stepped out my room ,my mom glared at me , somehow i  just manage her prying eyes .I had this confidence that i am  looking great today , i didn’t have my own vehicle so i have to get a cab form market ,”i could see the inquisitive eyes of people , and some young girls who were looking at me .

I just could manage to get a cab and reached there  at around 6.30 pm , i went to a wine shop and purchased a bottle of champagne ,i guess she likes it .I was just feeling quite gumby ,meeting a woman on her turf ,will never be easy .just with a nervous hands , i rang the bell .

The moment she opened the door , i was completely dazzle ,she was in a  madder colour robe , she looks so stunning ,i glued her from top to bottom. With blue studded diamonds ,and necklace to match .when she opened the door ,her house was big a ."real big " house ,with more than six cars parked in her lawn ,boy “this house deserves to be brag “, she looked at me and said you look great in your tugged tuxedo, am i ? It took me some time to get back to normal  ,i pinch myself ,is it real or i was dead in a road  accident ,and i am in heaven now .

Its real . i was taken to a room where there was light romantic music was playing in a background ,a table full of cousines ,with a dim light and candles in the middle of the table , sofia said with a very tempting voice ,"did you like the arrangements ........
