  Write a letter to your younger brother advising him to be attentive in his study. 20 June 2020 Dhaka My dear Sarmi, At first, take my cordial love. Hope you are well. I am well too. I have heard from mother that you have failed almost in all subjects. I was hopeful about you. But you have greatly disappointed me. I am sure that you keep bad company and waste away your time.
