৪. Information transfer · ৫
Read this ORIGINAL FICTIONAL account for Questions 4–5. On 12 January 2026, Lina, a teacher at fictional Megh School, started a book-sharing corner with 18 students. They used an unused classroom and began with 40 books. They met every Tuesday at three in the afternoon. At each meeting, members would read a short text and explain one idea to a partner. At first, several students were reluctant to speak. The teacher allowed them to rehearse in pairs. Six weeks later, the group had 31 members. A local supporter provided 15 more books. The students kept a register and shared responsibilities. The project encouraged careful understanding instead of counting finished books. Members explained not only what they had done but also why they had chosen a particular method. When they could not support a claim, they recorded it as a question for another meeting. Complete each information entry with a short phrase or number.
