  A  JOURNEY  BY  BUS

 

  Science  has  given  us  many  quick  means  of  travel .  The  bus  is  such  a  gift  of  science .  In  towns  and  cities  we  go  by  bus  from  one  place  to  another .  Here  we  go  to  short  distances  by  bus  and  so  we  do  not  feel  like  making  a  journey .  But  a  long  journey  by  bus  is  another  experience . 

Only  a  for  night  ago ,  I  had  an  opportunity  to  travel  by  bus  from  Dhaka  to  Comilla .  I  was  going  home  for  the  summer  vacation .  I  got  on  the  bus  at  Gulistan  Bus  Terminal  at  about  eight  in  the  morning .  The  weather  is  fine  with  a  cloudless  sky  above .

  The  journey  by  bus  from  Dhaka  to  Comilla  was  a  very  interesting  experience .  The  bus  started  plying  at  a  good  speed  and  soon  we  left  the  city  and  entered  the  countryside .  The  bus  was  going  along  the  road  with  green  fields  and  villages  on  both  sides .  It  was  moving  ahead  leaving  behind  the  trees ,  houses  and  small  shops  on  either  side  of  the  road .  It  was  really  very  delightful  to  see  the  green  beauties  of  nature .

An  interesting  part  of  the  journey  was  crossing  the  rivers  by  ferries .  It  was  after  an  hour  or  so  that  we  reached  the  first  ferry  ghat .  The  driver  told  us  to  get  down  from  the  bus .

                  At  the  ferry  ghat  there  were  some  hawkers  selling  fruits  and  chanachur.  some  passengers  bought  banana  and  chanachur  and  began  to  eat  them .  When  we  got  down  from  the  bus  and  got  on  the  ferry .  I  felt  a  good  relief  from  the  suffocating  atmosphere  inside  the  crowded  bus .  Crossing  the  river  by  ferry  in  the  gentle  breeze  was  very  pleasant  indeed .

After  crossing  the  river  we  again  got  on  the  bus  which  began  to  run  faster  than  before .  The  road  was  clear  and  the  bus  was  running  at  top  speed .  Suddenly  we  saw  that  a  loaded  truck  was  coming  at  full  speed  from  the  opposite  direction .  As  the  bus  and  the  truck  were  getting  nearer ,  we  got  frightened  that  there  might  be  a  head – on  collision .  Some  of  us  raised  a  cry  of  alarm .  But ,  thank  God ,  we  had  a  hair – breadth  escape .

 

The  bus  stopped  at  various  places  were  some  passengers  got  down  and  some  others  got  into  it .  I  was  sitting  beside  the  door .  The  bus  was  running  at  a  great  speed  and  I  felt  drowsy .  Suddenly  I  was  awakened  by  a  jolt .  When  the  bus  stopped ,  I  found  that  I  had  reached  my  destination .  I  was  getting  down  in  a  hurry .  When  I  put  my  hand  into  the  pocket ,  I  startled  up  to  see  that  my  pocket  had  been  picked  and  my  money  bag  had  gone .  I  reached  home  in  a  sad  mood .

The  journey  by  bus  was  very  pleasant  and  I  enjoyed  it  except  for  the  last  act  of  the  pick – pocket .

A  JOURNEY  BY  BUS

The advancement of science has bestowed upon us an array of speedy modes of transportation, among which the bus is a remarkable gift. Although we often use buses to travel short distances within cities, taking a long journey by bus presents a unique experience. Recently, I had the opportunity to embark on such a journey, traveling from Dhaka to Comilla to visit my family during the summer vacation.

 

I boarded the bus at Gulistan Bus Terminal at approximately eight in the morning on a day with fair weather, marked by a cloudless sky. The journey was enthralling as the bus swiftly traversed through the city and eventually entered the countryside. The verdant fields and quaint villages on either side of the road were a beautiful sight to behold, and it was delightful to witness the lush natural beauty that surrounded us.

 

One of the most interesting aspects of the journey was crossing rivers via ferries. After an hour or so, we reached the first ferry ghat where some hawkers were selling fruits and chanachur, which some passengers eagerly purchased and began to enjoy. Getting off the bus and onto the ferry brought a sense of relief from the suffocating atmosphere within the crowded vehicle. The gentle breeze blowing as we crossed the river was immensely refreshing and enjoyable.

 

After crossing the river, we resumed our journey on the bus, which accelerated even faster than before. However, suddenly we saw a loaded truck approaching at full speed from the opposite direction, which caused us to fear a potential head-on collision. Some passengers cried out in alarm, but thankfully, we narrowly avoided the catastrophe.

 

The bus made several stops along the way where passengers either disembarked or embarked. Sitting by the door, I felt drowsy due to the high speed at which the bus was moving. I was suddenly awakened by a jolt, and upon stopping, I discovered that I had arrived at my destination. In my haste to disembark, I realized that my pocket had been picked, and my money bag was gone. I returned home with a heavy heart due to the unfortunate incident.

 

Overall, the journey by bus was an enjoyable and engaging experience, marred only by the act of the pickpocket. The bus afforded us the opportunity to witness the natural beauty of the countryside, as well as the excitement of crossing rivers on ferries. While such journeys by bus may take longer than other forms of transportation, they offer a unique and memorable experience.



A JOURNEY BY BUS

 

Science has given us many quick means of travel. The bus is such a gift of science. A bus is a quick means of transport. In towns and cities it is the easy means of transport. Here we go to short distances by bus and some do not feel like making a journey. But a long journey by bus to a distant place is really enjoyable.

It was the month of March. I had a couple of day’s holiday. I was asked by one of my cousins to visit their place, Comilla. On the scheduled day the weather was fine with a cloudless sky above. In the morning, I got ready and come to the bus-stop and Kadamtali Bus Stop. A direct bus for Comilla was standing ready to start. I got into it and found some sitting room. Within a few minutes the bus was filled up with passengers. The bus started at 9 o’clock. Turning round a corner, it sped along the good road.

The bus started plying at a good speed and soon we left the city and entered the countryside. I brought out a book to read but I was unable to concentrate on it. Then I allowed my eyes to wander over the distant scenes that moved slowly back. The bus was going along the road with green fields and village on both sides. It was moving ahead, leaving behind the trees, houses and small shops on either side of the road. The bus seemed to be ploughing the never-ending shadow that covered the long road. Cows and goats were grazing in the open fields. It was really very delightful to see the green beauties of nature.

After about one and half an hours, there was a short hold-up at Feni. The bus stopped there for ten minutes. I got down from the bus. I felt a good relief from the suffocating atmosphere inside the crowded bus. I had a light-snack from the nearby shop. The bus driver asked us to get on the bus and we did so hurriedly. After short break the bus began plying again. The road was almost clear and the bus was moving faster than before. Suddenly we saw that a loaded truck was coming at full speed from the opposite direction. As the bus and the truck were getting nearer, we got frightened that there might be a head on collision. Some of us raised a cry of alarm. But, thank the Almighty we had a hair- breadth escape.

At 12:30, the bus reached Comilla Bus Terminal. I got down from the bus. My cousin, Raju had been waiting at the bus-stand for me. He embraced me. We hired a rickshaw and reached his home. Thus my journey came to an end. The journey was very pleasant to me. Though it was sometimes boring to me, I enjoyed it to my heart’s content. It will remain ever fresh in my memory.

A JOURNEY BY BUS


Introduction: A bus is a quick means of transport. In towns and cities it is the easy means of transport. Here we go to short distances by bus, and so we do not feel like making a journey. But a long journey by bus to a distant place is really enjoyable.

 

Occasion of the journey: It was the month of March. I had a couple of day’s holiday. I was asked by one of my cousins to visit their place, Comilla. I was very glad to have such a chance to go to Comilla. And this particular journey by bus has a lasting impression on my mind.

 

Commencement of the journey: In the morning, I got ready and come to the bus-stop and Kadamtali Bus Stop. A direct bus for Comilla was standing ready to start. I got into it and found some sitting room. Within a few minutes the bus was filled up with passengers. The bus started at 9 o’clock. Turning round a corner, it sped along the good road.

 

Views on the way: I brought out a book to read but I was unable to concentrate on it. Then I allowed my eyes to wander over the distant scenes that moved slowly back. The bus was going along the road with green fields and village on both sides. It was plying ahead, leaving behind the trees, houses, shops on either side of road. There were corn-fields, orchards, clumps of bamboo and plantain trees on both the sides. The sky was clear. In the sunshine the shadow of the trees fell on the road. The bus seemed to be ploughing the never-ending shadow that covered the long road. Cows and goats were grazing in the open fields. The scene was highly enjoyable and pleasant.

 

Short break during the journey: After about one and half an hours, there was a short hold-up at Feni. The bus stopped there for ten minutes. I got down from the bus. I felt a good relief from the suffocating atmosphere inside the crowded bus. I had a light-snack from the nearby shop. The bus –driver asked us to get on the bus and we did so hurriedly.

 

Difficulties faced: After short break the bus began plying again. The road was almost clear and the bus was moving faster than before. Suddenly we saw that a loaded truck was coming at full speed from the opposite direction. As the bus and the truck were getting nearer, we got frightened that there might be a head on collision. Some of us raised a cry of alarm. But, thank the Almighty we had a hair- breadth escape.

 

Other experiences : In the middle of the journey we came across many other experiences. Our bus took a bit time near Sitakundo Bazar. A public meeting was continuing there. The road near the market was crowded. I let my feast on the sights outside. Sometimes I listened to the talks of other passengers. Many of them were interesting. The young man who was sitting beside me was very witty. His puns interested and entertained me as well as a few others sitting close to us. I learnt that he was a student of Comilla Cadet College. We two talked a great deal before we reached our destination.

 

Destination:  At twelve, the bus reached Comilla Bus Terminal. I got down from the bus. My cousin, Raju had been waiting at the bus-stand for me. He embraced me. We hired a rickshaw and reached his home. Thus my journey came to an end.

 

Conclusion: The journey was very pleasant to me. Though it was sometimes boring to me, I enjoyed it to my heart’s content. It will remain ever fresh in my memory.
