ORIGINAL TEXT

Siraj ud daulah instantly assembled his whole force, and marched to encounter the english. it had been agreed that meer jafar should separate himself from the nabob and carry over his division to clive. but as the decisive moment approached the fears of the conspirator overpowered his ambition. clive had advanced to cassimbazar; the nabob lay witha mighty power a few miles of plassy; and still meer jafar delayed to fulfil the engagements.
clive was in painfully anxious situation. he could place no confidence in the sincerity or in the courage of his confederate; and whatever confidence be might place in his own military talents, and in the valor and discipline of his troops, it was no light thing to engage an army twenty times as numerous as his own.
clive was unable to sleep; he heard, through the whole night, the sound of drums and cymbols from the vast camp of the nabob. it is not strange that even his stout hearth should now and then havu sunk when he reflected against what odds and for what a prize and was in few hours to contend.
nor was the rest of siraj ud daulah more peaceful. his mind at once weak and stormy, was distracted by wild and horrible apprehensions. appalled by the greatness and nearness of the crises, distrusting his captains, dreading everyone who approached him, dreading to be left alone, he sat gloomily in his tent

Precis

Siraj Ud Daulah assembled his forces near plassey and was ready to encounter a battle with clive. Though assembled in Cassimbazar, Clive didn't have much confident in his army. he was quite reluctant to start a battle with an army twenty times larger than his. Moreover, he doubted Meer Jafar's promise of assisting him in the battle, as Meer Jafar was unable to join him in time. despite being militarily strong, Nabob wasn't confident of the sincerity of his soldiers.

ORIGINAL TEXT
if man began with speech , and civilization with agriculture, industry began with fire. man did not invent it; pobably nature produced the marvel for him by the friction of leaves or twigs, a stroke of lightning, or a chance union of chemicals; man merely had the saving with to imitate nature , and to improve upon her he put the wonder to a thousand uses. first, perhaps, he made it serve as a torch to conqure his fearsome enemy, the dark; then he used it for warmth and moved about freely from his native tropics to less enervating zones, slowly making the planet human; then he applied it to metals, softening them, temperign them, and combining them into forms stronger and more supple than those in which they had come to his hand. it was fire that created the old and honourable art of cooking, extending the diet of man to a thousand foods that could not be eaten before. so beneficent and strange was it tht fire always remained a miracle to primitive man, fit to be worshipped as a god; he offered it countless ceremonies of devotion, and made it the centre or focus of his life and home: he carried it carefully with him as he moved from place to place in his wanderings and would not willingly let it die. even the romans punished with death the careless virgins of the temple of vesta who allowed the sacred fire to be extinguished.

Precis
Fire being crucial part of men's every day life is liable of being deified. nature rather than man is responsible for its creation. man only followed nature in lightening fire. it can be used in a thousand of ways: to extinguish darkness, beek, travel, mould metals into more appreciable forms and to cook a variety of food.

ORIGINAL TEXT

The words of holy quran turned a number of desert tribes from superstitious idol-worshippers into a nation of warrior-heroes ready to give their lives gladly for the one god whom their prophet preached. The powerful kingdom of Persia fell before them in the seventh century, North Africa and Spain in the eight and Punjab and northern India in the ninth. Wonderful cities—Baghdad, cordova, Delhi, Cairo, Fostat—sprand up in their path. A great culture amalgamating the knowledge of east and west followed, immensely advancing human knowledge in its grasp of mathematics, astronomy, medicine, geometry and other forms of scientific learning. Along the mosque stood the college, where in these people, so avid in their love of learning, discussed all questions with far greater freedom than the Christians of their times. The Arab method of numerals supplanted the cumbersome roman system, and opened up new possibilities in mathematics. The whole Muslim civilization after the death of the prophet was tied together by the Quran and its teaching, the undeniable echo of his inspired voice. Little wonder that when the people of Mecca, in the early days of his mission, asked him to perform miracles, he replied that his revelation, the Quran, was itself a miracle straight from God, it revolutionized a huge chunk of human population. Its rhythmical flow and sublime teaching went straight to the heart of man.

Précis
Teachings of Quran and the Prophet have greatly changed the mode of human’s life. It has transformed the ignorant nomad tribes into strong worrisome soldiers and staunch believers of one God. Between seventh and ninth century Muslim conquered Africa, Spain, Persia and India and founded many elegant cities there. They created a remarkable culture and a progressive civilization, by fostering different sciences and blending up the knowledge of east and west. Besides, rather than their Christian counter parts Muslims provided greater learning opportunities to the masses.

@Obaida

A very good precis. I appreciate your selection of words.

Some suggestions:

1. Although you have made a good precis, but remember one can emphasize the importance of ideas as has been described in the passage. For example, more emphasis is on the muslims contribution to knowledge, however you have given same weight to this part like others.

2. You can always cut some unnecessary words like for example you have written "Teachings of Quran and the Prophet have greatly changed the mode of human’s life. It has transformed the ignorant nomad tribes into strong worrisome soldiers and staunch believers of one God. Between seventh and ninth century Muslim conquered Africa, Spain, Persia and India and founded many elegant cities there"

This can be reduced to for example something like this "Teachings of Quran revolutionized the nomads' life and turned them into believers of one God and worrisome warriors, who conquered Persia, Spain, India and North Africa in just two centuries."

Here you can see that you can make a precis of your own precis.

3. You have missed a very important part i.e. "The whole Muslim civilization after the death of the prophet was tied together by the Quran and its teaching, the undeniable echo of his inspired voice. Little wonder that when the people of Mecca, in the early days of his mission, asked him to perform miracles, he replied that his revelation, the Quran, was itself a miracle straight from God, it revolutionized a huge chunk of human population. Its rhythmical flow and sublime teaching went straight to the heart of man."

You didn't mention anything about this.

Precis is not just about cutting the size of passage but also incorporating main ideas. For example this passage have three ideas,

1. How Quran changed the nomad's life by making them warriors.
2. By making them knowledgable men.
3. Quran as a miracle.

These are just rough ideas, you may get different ideas. But what you have to do, is to incorporate them in precis.

Regards

thank you so much newstudent1 for such a brief guidence... i was really looking towards something like this....i will really take care of these mistakes in the precis writing....
