(I)

Barun is a boy of seven. He studies in class three. He lives with his parents. His grandparents also live with them. They are a happy family.

Barun gets up at six in the morning. First, he washes his hands and face. Then he goes to the toilet. He takes a bath with warm water. He takes a glass of milk with biscuits. Then he starts to read and write. He goes to school at eight-thirty. Before that, he takes his meal. He keeps his books and exercise books in the school bag. He takes a tiffin box and a water bottle also. He becomes ready without his parent's help. He is a smart boy. 

(III) 

Barun plays in the afternoon. He plays with Mrinmoy. Mrinmoy is a sweet child. The child is four years of age. Sometimes a lass also comes to play with them. Her name is Dhriti. The children play in the courtyard. They play hide and seek. Often Barun's grandfather comes to see them. He enjoys the company of the children. 

(IV)

Barun's grandfather is an elderly person. He is bald. Barun calls him 'Baldy Grandpa'. Again Grandpa Calls him 'Naughty the Great'. They are good friends. Barun likes to hear folktales from Grandpa. Barun loves his grandmother too. She makes cakes for him.

One day Barun was playing in Grandma's room. A stick was in his hand. Suddenly the stick hit the looking glass. It was on the dressing table. It broke into pieces. His grandmother was sleeping then. Barun called out. "Look Grandma, I have broken your looking glass. What should I do now?" The old woman looked at him. He was right. She said, 'Oh sweet boy! don't worry. I will buy another mirror soon. But be careful .in future'. 'Thank you, Grandma. I am very sorry. I will play carefully in future, please don't mind', said Barun. Grandma replied, 'that's alright. 

(VI)

One day Barun was playing with a ball. An old man was standing on the road. Barun didn't see the man's face. He thought the man was his Grandpa. So he called him, 'Hi baldy Grandpa!'Grandpa. He went to the old man and said, 'Please don't mind, Sir. I mistook you. The old man was amused. 'Oh, my smart boy, don't be nervous. I am just like your grandfather. Anyway, what's your name?' 'My name is Barun'. 'Oh! What a nice name! Do you know its meaning?' 'Yes, I do. Barun is the name of the Rain god.' 

(VII) 

Barun goes to the reading table at seven o'clock in the evening. He completes his homework himself. Of course, grandpa helps him sometimes. That day Barun was reading with a heavy mind. His grandfather came. Barun told him, 'Grandpa, I called an old · man Baldy'. The Grandfather laughed. 'Do you know, he is my good friend. His name is Sri, Mohan Bora. He told me about you. He feels you are a very smart boy.' 'That's OK Grandpa, but I feel sorry for myself. Grandpa consoled him, 'Do you know Barun, my friend says, you would be a good officer in future. Barun smiled, But you know Baldy, my aim is to be a teacher. I will try to be a good teacher, maybe in a university or 1n a college or in a school'.
