Preci 2002
I. Make a precis of the given passage, also give a suitable heading" (20) 'The official name of our species is homo sapiens; but there are many anthropologists who prefer to think of man as homo Fabcr-thc smith, the maker of tools It would be possible. I think, to reconcile these two definitions in a third. If man is a knower and an efficient doer, it is only because he is also a talker In order to be Faber and Sapiens, Homo must first be loquax, the loquacious one. Without language we should merely be hairless chimpanzees. Indeed \vc should be some thing much worse. Possessed of a high IQ but no language, we should be like the Yahoos of Gulliver's Travels- Creatures too clever to be guided by instinct, too Self-centered to live in a state of animal grace, and therefore condemned forever, frustrated and malignant, between contented apehood and aspiring'humanity. It was language that made possible the accumulation of knowledge and the broadcasting of information. It was language that permitted the expression of religious insight, the formulation of ethical ideals, the codification to laws, It was language, in a word, that turned us into human beings and gave birth to civilization.
Preci: The quality of language being a primary source is much weighty over all other human skills,that makes man superior to animal.without language man is just hairless silent bodies. No matter how sharp and self centred he is ,but without language he is much worse than any other species. gathering of knowledge , religious awareness, communication, social interactions ,rules and laws,all these are the result of language ,that ultimately created the civilization .

Make a precise of the following passage in about one third of its length and suggest a suitable heading. CE-1995
When you see a cockroach or a bed-hug your first reaction is one of disgust and that is immediately, followed by a desire to exterminate the offensive creature. Later, in the garden, you see a butterfly or a dragonfly, and you are filled with admiration at its beauty and grace. Man’s feelings towards insects are ambivalent. He realizes that some of them for example, - flies and cockroaches arc threats to health. Mosquitoes and tsetse flies have in the past sapped the vitality of entire tribes or nations. Other insects are destructive and cause enormous losses. Such arc locusts, which can wipe out whole areas of crops in minutes; and termites, whose often insidious ravages, unless checked at an early stage, can end in the destructing of entire rows –of houses. Yet men’s ways of living may undergo radical changes if certain species of insects were to become extinct. Bees, for example, pollinate the flowers of many plants which are food sources. In the past, honey was the only sweetening agent known to man in some remote parts of the world. Ants, although they bite and contaminate man’s food are useful scavengers which consume waste material that would otherwise pollute the environment. Entomologists who have studied insect fossils believe them to have inhabited the earth for nearly 400 million years. Insects live in large numbers almost everywhere in the world, from the hottest deserts and the deepest caves to the peaks of-high mountains and even the snows of the polar caps. Some insect communities are complex in organizations, prompting men to believe that they possess an ordered intelligence. But such organized behaviour is clearly not due to - developed brains. If we have to compare them to humans, bee and ant groups behave like extreme totalitarian societies. Each bee or ant seems to have a determined role to play instinctively and does so without deviation. The word “instinct” is often applied to insect behaviour. But some insect behaviour appears so clear that one tends to think that some sort of intelligence is at work. For example, the worker bee, upon relating to the hive after having found a new source of nectar, communicates his discovery by a kind of dance which tells other bees the direction and distance away of the nectar. Word=381 PRECISE Man dislikes Cockroach, Bed Bugs and other insects. Whenever he interacts, he kills them. In contrast, he pleased with the beauty of Butterfly and Dragonfly. Some insects are harmful to human e.g. locust wipe out crops, termites pours the base of the houses and viral diseases by flies has vanished the complete nations at once. Some insect are useful for food to human being like Bees and Ant. Existence of insects dates back to 400 million years ago. They found in every nook and corner of the world. They live in organized way like Totalitarian society, in which everybody has defined role to play. Insects also possess intelligence, which is evident from Bee’s way of dancing to inform others about the distance of newly found nectar. Word=125 Title: Man and Insects Plz Check

We're dealing with a very dramatic and very fundamental paradigm shift here. You may try" to lubricate your' social interactions with personality techniques and skills, but in the process, you may truncate the vital character base. You can't have the fruits without the roots. It's the principle of sequencing: Private victory precedes Public Victory. Self-mastery and self-discipline are the foundation of a good relationship with others. Some people say that you have to like yourself before you can like others. I think' that idea has merit but if you don't know yourself, if you don't control yourself, if you don't have mastery over yourself, it's very hard to like yourself, except in some short-term, psych-up, superficial way. Real self-respect comes from dominion over*self from true independence. Independence is an achievement. Interdependence is a choice only independent people can make. Unless we are willing to achieve real independence, it's foolish to try to develop human relations skills. We might try. We might even have some degree of success when the sun is shining. But when the difficult times come - and they will - We won't have the foundation to keep things together. The most important ingredient we put into any relationship is not what we say or what we do, but what we are. And if our words and our actions come from superficial human relations techniques (the Personality Ethic) rather than from our own inner core (the character Ethic), others will sense that duplicity. We simply won't be able to create and sustain the foundation necessary" for effective interdependence. The techniques and skills that really make a difference in human interaction are the ones that almost naturally flow from a truly independent character. So the place to begin building any relationship is inside ourselves, inside our Circle of Influence, our own character. As we become independent - Proactive, centered in correct principles, value driven and able to organize and execute around the priorities in our life with integrity - we then can choose to become interdependent - capable of building rich, enduring, highly productive relationships with other people.
My precis :- TItle " Private victory leads to the Public victory " or " self mastery -a habit of highly effective people" Man is a social animal . His Personality helps him to develop a short term relationship but Character plays a bigger role in sustaining a relationship. Mastery over oneself leads to the public victory. One cannot achieve interdependence unless one is self disciplined, controlled and independent . Self respect usually originates from the combination of these three principles. It is not possible to develop any smooth relationship if Words and actions, the result of personality techniques, are not in accordance with the values of an individual .Private victory forms the character that focuses an individual to put their efforts on circle of influence that is the beginning point of developing a highly productive relationship. Please Evaluate my precis and please comment on title tooo |

it from 2001 It was not from want of perceiving the beauty of external nature but from the different way of perceiving it, that the early Greeks did not turn their genius to portray, either in colour or in poetry, the outlines, the hues, and contrasts of all fair valley, and hold cliffs, and golden moons, and rosy lawns which their beautiful country affords in lavish abundance. Primitive people never so far as I know, enjoy when is called the picturesque in nature, wild forests, beetling cliffs, reaches of Alpine snow are with them great hindrances to human intercourse, and difficulties in the way of agriculture. They are furthermore the homes of the enemies of mankind, of the eagle, the wolf, or the tiger, and are most dangerous in times of earthquake or tempest. Hence the grand and striking features of nature are at first looked upon with fear and dislike. I do not suppose that Greeks different in the respect from other people, except that the frequent occurrence of mountains and forests made agriculture peculiarly difficult and intercourse scanty, thus increasing their dislike for the apparently reckless waste in nature. We have even in Homer a similar feeling as regards the sea, --- the sea that proved the source of all their wealth and the condition of most of their greatness. Before they had learned all this, they called it “the unvintagable sea” and looked upon its shore as merely so much waste land. We can, therefore, easily understand, how in the first beginning of Greek art, the representation of wild landscape would find no place, whereas, fruitful fields did not suggest themselves as more than the ordinary background. Art in those days was struggling with material nature to which it felt a certain antagonism. There was nothing in the social circumstances of the Greeks to produce any revolution in this attitude during their greatest days. The Greek republics were small towns where the pressure of the city life was not felt. But as soon as the days of the Greeks republics were over, the men began to congregate for imperial purposes into Antioch, or Alexandria, or lastly into Rome, than we seek the effect of noise and dust and smoke and turmoil breaking out into the natural longing for rural rest and retirement so that from Alexander’s day …… We find all kinds of authors --- epic poets, lyricist, novelists and preachers --- agreeing in the precise of nature, its rich colours, and its varied sounds. Precis= The different way of observing nature refrained Greeks from lauding natural beauty through writings. Ancient human being never liked natural beauty rather took it as an obstacle for agriculture and danger to them. Hence the vastness of nature scared them. The Greeks were no different, even the natural sources which latter proved fruitful for them (sea) were the target of their bigot initially. In short art was struggling at that time. But the reason was the absence of any social stimuli to change their dogma. Moreover the Greeks were living in harmony among their republican states , but as soon as the tyrannical imperialism planted its foot ( from Alexander’s time) the plant of art and literature and started blossoming in the land. title[/B] = Origin of Greek art plzzzzzz chk it and give ur advise.. |

Precis:- Since times, the earlier Greeks were not familiar with natural beauty, art and the abundance of rich resources of their country. They assumed those things as barrier of communication, agriculture, and homes of dangerous animals. They did not realize the importance of sea, and thought it as wastage of huge landmass, but when they knew about its significance, it became the symbol of their integrity and economy.In those days people did not like art, and assumed it as hostility of nature. As time passed, the Greek republics extended in towns and cities, where they live easy life. When they progressed and developed their industries, they felt noise and pollution in surrounding,then they flashed back to the natural beauty and its need in human life. In this way the art put its feet in Greek period. Total words. 420 required.......140 given...........137 Title: Origin of Art in Greek period.
