উত্তরের বিবরণ
The correct answer: গ) As soon as he reached the station, the train left.
-
অর্থ: যে মুহূর্তে তিনি স্টেশনে পৌঁছালেন, ট্রেন চলে গেল।
Rule for Negative → Affirmative:
-
Negative sentence No sooner had… দিয়ে শুরু হলে affirmative sentence-এ as soon as… ব্যবহার করা হয়।
-
Affirmative-এ যে দুটি clause যুক্ত হবে, তাতে past perfect tense ব্যবহার হয় না, সাধারণ past tense থাকে।
Examples:
-
Neg.: No sooner had I arrived home than it began to rain.
-
Aff.: As soon as I arrived home, it began to rain.
-
-
Neg.: No sooner had she heard the news than she started weeping.
-
Aff.: As soon as she heard the news, she started weeping.
-
-
Neg.: No sooner had I wanted to catch the bird than it flew away.
-
Aff.: As soon as I wanted to catch the bird, it flew away.
-
Other options:
-
ক) As soon as he reaches the station, the train left. → Present tense reaches এবং past tense left মিলছে না।
-
খ) As soon as he was reaching the station, the train left. → Continuous tense এখানে সঠিক নয়।
-
ঘ) As soon as he had reached the station, the train had left. → দুটোই past perfect, অর্থ ট্রেন আগে চলে গেছে; বাক্যের আসল অর্থ নেই।

Change into indirect speech:
She said, "Please sit down."
Created: 1 month ago
A
She request to sit down.
B
She requested me to sit down.
C
She requested me sitting down.
D
Her request was to sit down.
Correct Answer: খ) She requested me to sit down.
-
মূল বাক্য: She said, "Please sit down."
-
এটি একটি imperative sentence।
-
Reported speech-এ request + object + to + verb ফর্ম ব্যবহার হয়।
-
Please সরাসরি বাক্যে থাকে না।
-
Object me (যাকে বলা হচ্ছে) উল্লেখ করা হয়।
-
সুতরাং সঠিক reported speech: She requested me to sit down.
Other options:
-
ক) She requested to sit down. → এখানে object (me) অনুপস্থিত।
-
গ) She requested me sitting down. → grammatically ভুল; সঠিকভাবে হবে to sit down।
-
ঘ) Her request was to sit down. → অর্থ সঠিক হলেও indirect speech নয়, sentence structure পরিবর্তিত হয়েছে।

Transform it into a simple sentence:
As he was ill, he could not attend school.
Created: 1 month ago
A
He was ill, so he missed school.
B
Being ill, he could not attend school.
C
Since he was ill, he missed school.
D
He couldn’t attend school though he was ill.
এই প্রশ্নে complex sentence-কে simple sentence-এ রূপান্তর করতে হবে। সঠিক উত্তর হলো— Being ill, he could not attend school.
-
মূল বাক্য: As he was ill, he could not attend school.
-
এটি একটি complex sentence, কারণ এতে দুটি clause রয়েছে: একটি principal clause এবং একটি subordinate clause।
-
Simple sentence-এ কেবল একটি clause থাকে, অথবা subordinate clause-এর পরিবর্তে participle phrase ব্যবহার করা হয়।
-
Being ill হলো present participle phrase, যা As he was ill এর সরল রূপ।
-
এটি বাক্যের অর্থ অক্ষুণ্ণ রেখে কেবল একটি clause-এ রূপান্তর করে।
-
তাই সঠিক simple sentence হলো: Being ill, he could not attend school.
অন্যান্য বিকল্প বিশ্লেষণ:
-
ক) He was ill, so he missed school → এটি compound sentence।
-
গ) Since he was ill, he missed school → এটি complex sentence।
-
ঘ) He couldn’t attend school though he was ill → এটি complex sentence।

They ___________ yoga every day.
Created: 1 month ago
A
used to practicing
B
are used to practice
C
are used to practicing
D
use to practice
সঠিক উত্তর হলো are used to practicing।
-
Complete sentence: They are used to practicing yoga every day.
-
বাংলা অর্থ: তারা প্রতিদিন যোগব্যায়াম করতে অভ্যস্ত।
-
ব্যাখ্যা:
-
অতীতের অভ্যাস বা অভ্যস্ততা বোঝাতে used to ব্যবহার করা হয় এবং এর পরে verb-এর base form আসে।
-
উদাহরণ: I used to live alone.
-
-
কিন্তু বর্তমানেও অভ্যস্ত থাকা বোঝাতে be used to / get used to ব্যবহার হয় এবং এর পরে verb + ing আসে।
-
Structure: subject + be/get + used to + (verb + ing) + ext.
-
-
প্রদত্ত বাক্যে “every day” উল্লেখ থাকায় এটি বর্তমান অভ্যস্ততা বোঝাচ্ছে, তাই be used to + verb+ing ব্যবহার করা হয়েছে।
-
-
অতিরিক্ত উদাহরণ:
-
I am used to checking my emails every day.
-
We are used to walking the dog every day.
-
She is used to cooking dinner every day.
