10. Water
Water is an important resource for all human beings, animals, and trees. It is a valuable gift of nature. We can live a few days without food, but we can’t live without water. Without water people, plants, and animals cannot live. If there is no water, people and animals will die. We can get water from rivers, tanks, wells, and rain. Trees help us to get water. We need water for drinking, cooking, washing, cleaning, bathing, transporting, living, for agricultural purposes, and electricity. Now we can understand the value of water. We should pay attention to preserving water. We should stop water wastage. To stop water wastage, we must manage water well. To protect water we should use water carefully. So, we should all stand together to conserve water to save lives. No water no life, no water no future.
11. My Ambition In Life
Ambition is a thing that we want to be in our life. Different people have different ambitions. Some wish to be engineers some wish to be teachers and some wish to be businessmen but I wish to be a teacher. Teaching is a noble profession. Pupils love their teachers. Everybody respects them. Teachers work hard to produce good citizens. If I want to be a teacher, I have to work hard. I must pass the exams and enter a College of Education, obtain a degree or Diploma. Then I can get the necessary training. It is not an easy job. I will help my students to study their subjects well. I will also give them correct guidance. I hope my dream will come true.

12. My favourite TV programme
Watching TV is a source of entertainment. I see different programmes on different channels. The most popular TV programmes are dramas, songs, dances, films, games sports etc. There are also some instructive programmes on the television. They cover different branches of knowledge. Among all the
programmes, my favourite TV programme is Doramadalawa. It is a documentary programme. It is telecast every Monday at 10 p.m. on ITN. This programme is presented by Hasantha Hettiarachchi. Many scholars come to this programme every day. They talk about valuable things. I like this programme because all the family members can watch it together.
13. Trees are our friends
Trees are a valuable gift of nature. They give us shade, medicines, grain, vegetables, air, water and many more. They provide us oxygen and also they help to prevent soil erosion. But some people destroy trees. It is not good. If we cut one tree we have to plant two instead. As little children we need to protect trees for our future generation. They are the best friends of man.
