Essay "Blessings of science" by Uroosa Noor

"Science is a way of thinking much more than it is a body of knowledge."

Nowadays,We live in the age of science. It has changed the face of our earth or world. Scientific invention like computer, satellite, X-ray, radium, plastic surgery, cellular phone, photography and machine have been proved very useful. They have given much comfort ease convenience. These are due to hard and continuous work of our scientist.

Electricity is one of the invaluable gifts of science. It has been proved to be a boon in this modern world. It has saved us from unnecessary toil it gives us lights. It keeps our room warm. It moves our fans. It boils water for us. A crane lifts up very heavy loads for us with the help of electricity.

Machines are our extra limbs. They weave clothes for us. Productions of goods are cheap and quick. We can fly like birds. We can cross the sea like fish. Computer and calculator do the work of accounted and clerks. Guns and firearms save our life in danger. Radio and television sings for us.

In the medical field new drugs have been invented. They have been popular and useful to us. Sometimes a single dose of drug ends dose pain. A weeping child begins to smile. Thus we see that science serves us like a good servant.

We should remember that our ill are not due to science. It is its wrong use which has created harm. The proper uses of scientific things are really a boon, while its wrong use is a curse. This is why Prof. Hardy wrote, ‘science is an angle in peace but devil in war.’

Essay " A natural disaster" by Uroosa Noor

Natural disasters are natural events that cause the loss of lives and property. Sometimes hundreds and thousands are killed, and millions of dollars of property are destroyed. What are these events and what causes them ?

"We cannot stop natural disasters but we can arm ourselves with knowledge..so many lives wouldn't have to be lost if there was enough disaster preparedness."

The earth is a dynamic entity that is undergoing changes all the time. Normal changes such as those occurring to the weather and the seasons are part and parcel of living. We live our lives according to these changes. However, sometimes the forces of nature cause great and drastic changes, and for us puny human beings, the effect can be disastrous.There are many types of natural events that can spell disaster for us. They include earthquakes, volcanoes,floods and many more.

The earth crust is made up of a number of plates. At some places on the crust, lava, ash, smoke etc breaks through and the result is volcanos. Sometimes the eruption is so violent that it destroys living things that are nearer to it. In 2004, underwater volcanic eruptions in the Indian Ocean caused tsunamis again killed hundreds of thousands living nearby.The plates of the earth crust are not static. They push and grind against one another producing earthquakes that sometimes cause widespread destruction to the affected area.

In addition to volcanic eruptions and earthquakes, other natural phenomena also brings destruction. In Malaysia, the Northeast monsoon rains that come around December bring floods to the east coast of the peninsula. In Australia, bushfires in summer destroy vast tracts of land.

No place on earth is totally free from disaster-causing events. We can only do our best to deal with these events when they occur. People and property are destroyed. Those who survive pick up the pieces and continue living.

Essay "My favorite personality" by Maryam Arif

"It's beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures your heart".

Great and true leader live eternally. Everyone in this world like a person whom he follow and admire. Indeed Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was truly one of the greatest visionary leader of the modern era and he is my favorite personality.

Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's political philosophy and democratic constitutional policies are logical, providing basis and guiding principles for all times to come.

He was born in 1928 and completed his early education from Bombay's Cathedral High School and then joined University of Southern of California at Berkeley in 1949.After completing his degree with honors in science at Berkeley in 1950,he was admitted to Oxford.

His first major achievement was to conclude the Sino-Pakistan boundary agreement on march 12, 1963.

Zulfikar Ali Bhutto launched Pakistan Peoples Party after leaving Ayub's Cabinet.In the general elections held in December 1970,PPP won a large majority in West Pakistan but failed to reach an agreement with Sheikh Mujib-ur-Rehman, the majority winner from East Pakistan. Yahya Khan resigned and Bhutto took over as President and Chief Martial Law Administrator on December 20, 1971.

In 1972 Bhutto nationalized ten categories of major industries and withdrew Pakistan from the commonwealth of nations.On March 1, he introduced land reforms and on July 2, 1972 ,signed the Simla agreement with India. Bhutto laid the foundation of Pakistan's first steel mill at Pipri near Karachi.

Shaheed Bhutto by virtue of his statesmanship qualities steered the nation towards the destination of peace,progress and stability under extremely challenging and difficult circumstances.No doubt he was a leader who wanted to see Pakistan as a modern country and to walk side by side of America and other developed countries.His services as a leader are unforgetable. "Personality is the glitter that sends your little gleam across the footlights and the orchestra pit into that big black space where the audience is".

Essay "An interesting cricket match" by Syeda Maryam Mehboob

'IF YOU WATCH A GAME, IT"S FUN. IF YOU PLAY AT IT, IT'S RECREATION."

Many interesting matches have been played in the history of cricket .The semi-final between New Zealand and South Africa of 2015 World Cup was one of them.

South Africa bat first and gave a huge target of 298 runs in 43 overs.Captain AB Develliers and Faf Duplessis played splendid innings that was not an easy task.New Zealand took a flashing and smashing start.The Kiwis made a pile of runs in very few overs.South African bowlers controlled the situation very soon.But poor fielding in the last moment could not stop Kiwis for a victory.

The last moments of the match were quite sensational.20 runs required off 12 balls when catch was dropped and hence Grant Elliot the danger man got a new life.Poor fielding in the last moment bred contempt for the proteas.Still the chance for both the teams was 50-50.2 balls were left and 5 runs required,The 2nd Last ball was coming up.Elliot the man of the moment and man of crises was on the crease as soon as dale styen delivered the ball.Elliot swang his bat with full power.The ball went up in the air over the boundary time for a six.New Zealand had won the match that was a wonderful and cheerful moment for Kiwis because they had reached the final first time.

It was literally an exciting and nail biting match that can never be scratched from the memory. some said for the Kiwis that "PAIN IS ONLY TEMPORARY BUT VICTORY IS FOREVER."
