Junior Scholarship Exam Preparation Model Test-7

Part A: Reading the text and answer questions 1 and 2.

River gypsies in Bangladesh are having various problems. First, Bangladesh is urbanizing very rapidly. Gypsy people are losing their customers in urban population. Hence, their income is threatened. Secondly, 24,000 kilometers of previous waterways has shrunk into only 6,000 kilometers in the country in dry seasons. Scientists believe that Bangladesh will be worst affected by global climate change. The unpredictable rain and drying out of rivers have made boat movement heavily restricted. Thirdly, many river gypsies are changing their lifestyle in the context of changed reality. They are thinking of living permanently on land. The authority feels that river gypsies need help to survive in the mainstream population. Therefore, the government is offering voting rights, permanent housing and bank loan facilities. However, changes do not come overnight. Traditionally, river gypsies are used to water life. They have inherited from their forefathers necessary life skills to survive in waters. They have no education and training to adapt to mainstream modern society. So the authority feels the need to bring them under formal education network. But they have no permanent living place. Gypsy children are born and brought up on roaming boats. Therefore, they cannot go to conventional schools. And hence, mobile boat-schools are coming up for gypsy children. Some voluntary organizations are running special schools on boats to educate river gypsy children in some areas. [Unit: 1; Lesson: 4 (B)]

Bengali Translation

বাংলাদেশের নদীভিত্তিক যাযাবররা (নদী-যাযাবর/বেদে জনগোষ্ঠী) নানা সমস্যার সম্মুখীন হচ্ছে। প্রথমত, বাংলাদেশ খুব দ্রুত নগরায়িত হচ্ছে। নগর জনসংখ্যার মধ্যে তাদের ক্রেতা কমে যাওয়ায় যাযাবরদের আয় হুমকির মুখে পড়েছে। দ্বিতীয়ত, শুষ্ক মৌসুমে দেশের প্রায় ২৪,০০০ কিলোমিটার পূর্ববর্তী জলপথ সংকুচিত হয়ে মাত্র ৬,০০০ কিলোমিটারে নেমে এসেছে। বিজ্ঞানীরা মনে করেন, বৈশ্বিক জলবায়ু পরিবর্তনের ফলে বাংলাদেশ সবচেয়ে বেশি ক্ষতিগ্রস্ত হবে। অনিয়মিত বৃষ্টিপাত ও নদী শুকিয়ে যাওয়ার কারণে নৌযান চলাচল মারাত্মকভাবে সীমিত হয়ে পড়েছে। তৃতীয়ত, পরিবর্তিত বাস্তবতার প্রেক্ষাপটে অনেক নদী-যাযাবর তাদের জীবনধারা পরিবর্তন করতে চাইছে। তারা স্থায়ীভাবে স্থলে বসবাসের কথা ভাবছে।

কর্তৃপক্ষ মনে করে, মূলধারার জনগোষ্ঠীর সঙ্গে টিকে থাকতে নদী-যাযাবরদের সহায়তা প্রয়োজন। তাই সরকার তাদের ভোটাধিকার, স্থায়ী আবাসন এবং ব্যাংক ঋণ সুবিধা প্রদান করছে। তবে পরিবর্তন রাতারাতি আসে না। ঐতিহ্যগতভাবে নদী-যাযাবররা জলজ জীবনে অভ্যস্ত। তারা জলজ পরিবেশে টিকে থাকার প্রয়োজনীয় জীবনদক্ষতা পূর্বপুরুষদের কাছ থেকে উত্তরাধিকারসূত্রে পেয়েছে। কিন্তু মূলধারার আধুনিক সমাজে খাপ খাওয়ানোর মতো শিক্ষা ও প্রশিক্ষণ তাদের নেই। তাই কর্তৃপক্ষ তাদেরকে আনুষ্ঠানিক শিক্ষা ব্যবস্থার আওতায় আনার প্রয়োজন অনুভব করছে।

কিন্তু তাদের স্থায়ী বসবাসের জায়গা নেই। যাযাবর শিশুদের জন্ম ও বেড়ে ওঠা হয় ভ্রাম্যমাণ নৌকায়। ফলে তারা প্রচলিত বিদ্যালয়ে যেতে পারে না। এ কারণে যাযাবর শিশুদের জন্য ভ্রাম্যমাণ নৌকা-বিদ্যালয় চালু করা হচ্ছে। কিছু স্বেচ্ছাসেবী সংগঠন বিভিন্ন এলাকায় নৌকায় বিশেষ বিদ্যালয় পরিচালনা করে নদী-যাযাবর শিশুদের শিক্ষা দিচ্ছে।

1. Who are river gypsies and what problems are they facing in Bangladesh?

Answer:
River gypsies are a nomadic community who live on boats and rivers in Bangladesh. They depend on rivers for their livelihood. They are facing many problems due to rapid urbanization, shrinking waterways, climate change, and loss of customers. As a result, their income is threatened and their traditional way of life is in danger.

---

2. How has rapid urbanization affected the livelihood of river gypsies?

Answer:
Rapid urbanization has reduced the number of customers for river gypsies in urban areas. People now depend less on their traditional services. Consequently, river gypsies are losing their income sources and finding it difficult to survive economically.

---

3. Describe the impact of climate change on river gypsies’ life.

Answer:
Climate change has caused unpredictable rainfall and drying up of rivers. Many waterways have shrunk during dry seasons, which restricts boat movement. Since river gypsies depend on rivers for transportation and livelihood, climate change has made their life more uncertain and challenging.

---

4. Why are many river gypsies thinking of changing their lifestyle?

Answer:
Due to urbanization, climate change, and reduced waterways, living on rivers has become difficult. Income opportunities are decreasing, and boat movement is restricted. Therefore, many river gypsies are thinking of settling permanently on land to adapt to the changed reality.

---

5. What steps has the government taken to help river gypsies?

Answer:
The government has taken several initiatives to help river gypsies. These include providing voting rights, permanent housing, and bank loan facilities. These steps aim to integrate them into mainstream society and help them survive economically and socially.

---

6. Why does the authority feel the need to bring river gypsies under formal education?

Answer:
River gypsies have no formal education or modern training to adapt to mainstream society. Without education, they cannot secure better jobs or improve their living conditions. Therefore, the authority feels it is necessary to include them in the formal education system.

---

7. What difficulties do river gypsy children face in getting education?

Answer:
River gypsy children are born and brought up on roaming boats and have no permanent living place. Because of this nomadic lifestyle, they cannot attend conventional schools on land. As a result, their access to education is very limited.

---

8. What are mobile boat-schools and why are they important?

Answer:
Mobile boat-schools are special schools run on boats for river gypsy children. They move from place to place and provide basic education. These schools are important because they make education accessible to children who cannot attend traditional schools.

---

9. What role do voluntary organizations play in educating river gypsy children?

Answer:
Voluntary organizations run special schools on boats in different areas. They provide education and learning opportunities to river gypsy children. Their role is crucial because they help fill the gap where conventional education systems cannot reach.

---

10. Why is the integration of river gypsies into mainstream society a slow process?

Answer:
Integration is slow because river gypsies are traditionally used to a water-based life and lack education and training for modern society. They also do not have permanent homes. Changing a traditional lifestyle and mindset takes time, so progress cannot happen overnight.

It was Seryozha’s birthday, and he received many presents: tops, hobby-horses and picture books. But the best gift of all was from his uncle. It was a net for catching birds. A little board was attached to a frame on which a net was stretched. Grain was sprinkled on the board, and then the net was set out in the yard. When a bird flew up and perched on the board, the board would turn over and the net would fall. Seryozha was so happy he came running to his mother to show her his net. His mother said. “It’s not a nice toy at all. What do you want with little birds? Why do you want to torment them?” I’ll put them in cages. They’ll sing. and I’ll feed them.” Šeryozha got some grain, sprinkled it on the little board and set the net out in the garden. He stood next to it, waiting for birds to come me flying down. But the birds were afraid of him and and did not come near the net. Seryozha went in to dinner and left the net in the garden. When he came to look at it after dinner, he saw that the net had fallen and a little bird was thrashing about under it. Seryozha was very excited. He caught the bird and took it into the house.

Bengali Translation

এটি ছিল সেরিওঝার জন্মদিন, আর সে অনেক উপহার পেয়েছিল—লাটিম, কাঠের ঘোড়া ও ছবির বই। কিন্তু সব উপহারের মধ্যে সেরা উপহারটি ছিল তার কাকার কাছ থেকে পাওয়া। সেটি ছিল পাখি ধরার একটি জাল। একটি ফ্রেমের সঙ্গে একটি ছোট কাঠের পাটাতন লাগানো ছিল, যার ওপর জাল টানানো ছিল। পাটাতনের ওপর শস্য ছিটিয়ে দেওয়া হতো, তারপর জালটি উঠোনে পাতা হতো। কোনো পাখি উড়ে এসে পাটাতনের ওপর বসলে পাটাতনটি উল্টে যেত এবং জালটি পড়ে যেত।

সেরিওঝা খুব খুশি হয়ে তার মায়ের কাছে দৌড়ে গেল জালটি দেখাতে। তার মা বললেন,
“এটা মোটেও ভালো খেলনা নয়। তুমি ছোট ছোট পাখিদের দিয়ে কী করতে চাও? কেন তুমি তাদের কষ্ট দিতে চাও?”

সেরিওঝা বলল,
“আমি তাদের খাঁচায় রাখব। তারা গান গাইবে, আর আমি তাদের খাবার দেব।”

সেরিওঝা কিছু শস্য নিয়ে ছোট পাটাতনের ওপর ছিটিয়ে দিল এবং বাগানে জালটি পাতল। সে জালের পাশে দাঁড়িয়ে রইল, পাখিরা কখন উড়ে এসে নামবে সেই অপেক্ষায়। কিন্তু পাখিরা তাকে ভয় পেল এবং জালের কাছে এল না।

সেরিওঝা দুপুরের খাবার খেতে ঘরে চলে গেল এবং জালটি বাগানেই রেখে দিল। খাবার শেষে সে যখন জালটি দেখতে গেল, তখন দেখল জালটি পড়ে গেছে এবং একটি ছোট পাখি তার নিচে ছটফট করছে। সেরিওঝা খুব উত্তেজিত হয়ে পড়ল। সে পাখিটিকে ধরল এবং বাড়ির ভেতরে নিয়ে গেল।
