(The answers must be in your own words.) Speech is a great blessing but it can be a curse, for while it helps to make our ambitions and objects known to our collaterates, it can also, if we use it carelessly, make our attitude completely misunderstood. The slip of the tongue, the use of an unusual word, or of an ambiguous word and so on, may create an enemy where we had hoped to win a friend. Again different vocabularies and the ordinary speech of an educated man strike an uneducated listener as showing pride, unwilling by we may use a word which bears a different meaning to out listener from what is done to men of our own class. Thus, speech is not a gift to use lightly without thought, but one which demands careful handling only a fool will express himself alike to all kinds and conditions of men. وبانل اکیمیظعتمعنےہنکیلہیاکیربایئیھبنبیتکسےہویکہکناسےسامہرےزعامئاورامہرےاقمدصوکاجناجےتںیہ Translation: اور اسھت یہ ارگ مہ اےس الرپوایئ ےس اامعتسل رکےت ںیہ وت ہی امہرے روےی وک طلغ ےنھجمس ںیم یھب ربایئ نب یتکس ےہ زابن ےس اکی ابتاک لکن اجان اکی الخف ومعمل ظفل اک اامعتسل ای اکی ریغ واحض ظفل اک اامعتسل اور ارطسح ےک وظفلں اک اامعتسل اکی دنمش دیپا رک اتکس ےہ اہجں امہری وتعق تھہ ی ہک مہ وکیئ دوتس انب ےتکس ںیہ اکی ڑپےھ ےھکل صخش ےکفلتخم اافلظ اک اامعتسل اور اعم وبل اچل اکی ان ڑپھ صخشرغور ےسیج ینعم ںیم ےلاتکس

April 10, I want to draw your attention to an important problem of sensational news being published in the newspaper. No doubt, media has attained untold importance in our society. Even a lay man can get any type of information through newspapers. But one thing is very alarming in this regard. These newspapers publish sensational news in the newspapers. These items of news create sensation in the public. The people feel panic after reading these sensational items of news. Sometimes, the pictures of bomb blasts, murders and the scenes of different parts of bodies scattering here and there create feelings of horror and sensation in the children. Not only the children but the elders also feel disturbed and anxious to see them. In this regard, the concerned authorities are requested to avoid publishing sensational news. The government can also impose restriction on these media channels to avoid such things. I am sure that the concerned authorities and the government will look into this matter seriously. Yours truly,
