২. পাঠৰ সাৰাংশ (Lesson Summary)

• English: In an exciting inter-school football match between Team A and Team B, Tarun is the star player for Team A. Team B plays roughly and targets Tarun throughout the game. In the tense second half, with the score tied and time running out, Tarun breaks free and gets a golden opportunity to score a sure winning goal into an empty net. However, Tarun abruptly stops and refuses to kick the ball because he notices the goalkeeper of Team B lying injured and helpless near the goalpost. He immediately signals to the referee to halt the match so that medical aid can be provided. Although his teammates are initially upset, the referee praises Tarun’s compassionate action: “What Tarun did was quite right.” Touched by his true sportsmanship, the players of Team B treat him with great respect. Everyone learns that sports and life are not merely about winning trophies, but about showing empathy, humanity, and fairness—which is the true joy of living. The lesson also highlights health awareness against drug abuse, emphasizing that health is our greatest wealth.
