36. Morning assembly is an integral part of the school’s schedule. Almost all the
schools conduct morning assemblies which include prayers, information of latest
happenings, inspiring thoughts, speech, national anthem, etc. A good school is
always particular about their morning assembly schedule. Morning assembly is
important for a child’s development. It is essential to understand that morning
assembly is not just about standing in long queues and singing prayers or
national anthem, but it’s something beyond just prayers. All the activities carried
out in morning assembly by the school staff and students have a great influence
in every point of life. The positive effects of attending school assemblies can be
felt throughout life. Have you noticed that in school assembly you always stand
in row and column and this make a coordinate system. Suppose a school have
100 students and they all assemble in prayer in 10 rows as given below.

38. A road roller (sometimes called a roller-

compactor, or just roller) is a compactor-type
engineering vehicle used to compact soil,
gravel, concrete, or asphalt in the construction
of roads and foundations. Similar rollers are
used also at landfills or in agriculture. Road
rollers are frequently referred to as
steamrollers, regardless of their method of
propulsion. RCB Machine Pvt Ltd started
making road roller 10 year ago. Company
increased its production uniformly by fixed
number every year. The company produces 800 rollers in the 6th year and 1130
roller
in the 9th year.
