Smile plz check: the impossible is often the untried

if we look at the word impossible closely,it says i-m-possible. great scholars have said, nothing is impossible in this world. when we are scared in trying new things we segment it as impossible. for many people innumerable things are impossible but if they do it with concentration and determination they can do it. acquiring a piece of land to practice Islam was just a dream of great Muslim south east Asian leaders. with the determination of Muslim leaders the dream of Pakistan was made reality on 14th august 1947. what if,the Muslim leaders would not even try to stand infront of mighty Britishers and majority of Hindus, we would have still been the minority in joint INDIA.
Their are certain things which a person is incapable to do. it is his innate capabilities which stops him from doing so. an animal lover if taken on hunting, will never be able to become a great hunter because of his animal loving nature. a student whose interest is in social sciences subjects wont be able to score equally well in accounts or medical.
one must always try every thing which comes his way to estimate his hidden potential.it is difficult to be what u can not be,but it is misfortunate to have an opportunity and fail to utilise it.

It is absolutely right and i agree this statement.

One of the major reason is people's pessimistic approach. They perceive that it is impossible and this mentality keep them far away from the road of success. The inferiority complex let them away to avail the oppurtunity and they remain in the darkeness of failures.

so every impossible should be tried. In first few attempts, there may be failure but continued determination will lead them toward road to success.

As James W. Pence quotes

"Success is determined by those whom prove the impossible, possible.”

You started your debate very well and I appreciate that you followed the exact rules for presenting an argument. This perfectly fulfills the principles of logic. e.g. You started with a statement (nothing is impossible in this world). Then you started providing premises for it by giving examples from our own history. This is fulfills all the needs of inferential argumentations.

But

your second paragraph seem to deviate from the given line and even seem to negate your first arguments. e.g you mentioned in the second paragraph
Quote:

. WON'T BE ABLE.. . what does this mean? Isn't it equal to IMPOSSIBLE? If so, it negates your first argument. And, if your second argument is in negation to your first argument then, logically, your entire debate becomes meaningless. (1-1=0 and zero is nothing).


Concluding, what idea do you want to promote?

1. NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE or

2. IT IS DIFFICULT TO BE WHAT YOU CAN NOT BE?

I wonder what are you getting at?

I liked the way you explained his mistake of negation the centeral idea, great work! By the way, is Exploring the World of English Grammar is enough for English paper of CSS? Or there is some other great book too which you have referred.

Exploring the World of English is the best recommended English book by my teacher. But I found this book a little difficult as well.
For CSS, not only this book but you need practice of writing and get your writing checked by someone.

But, they way I explained the mistakes has nothing to do with English. For this, you have to study logic (construction of arguments). Search it on the internet.


The most basic problem of our education system is that it doesn't give any knowledge of LOGIC, which is measuring rod knowledge. While on the other hand in our Madrassa system (Dars-e-Nizami) Logic is a compulsory subject for the students. They call it منطق (mantiq).
