(Paper) Understanding The Dynamics of English Language Comprehension Skills

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 10:27 PM PST

Understanding The Dynamics of English Language Comprehension Skills

The Civil Services Aptitude Test (CSAT) contains two topics on comprehension. Most of the candidates are not aware of the difference between language comprehension (points no. 7 in syllabus) and comprehension mentioned as 1st point in the syllabus.

The English language comprehension skills deal with the understanding of the language as such. India is a land of diversities and these cultural differences are clearly visible in the form of languages as well. Though Hindi language is used by the majority of Indian population but at the same time large number of other languages are also being used in different parts of India. Therefore sound knowledge of English language is must to become a successful civil servant. Without the command over such a linking language, an administrator can never function effectively and efficiently. The topic no. 7 of syllabus is going to test the understanding of the English language.

As pert the UPSC guidelines the questions relating to English Language Comprehension skills will be tested through passages from English language. The question paper will have some passages in English language and you will be asked to answers question on the basis of the information given in the passage.

Caste Census: Cabinet Clears Caste Census In 2011

After several deliberations within the government on the politically-sensitive issue, the Union cabinet decided to carry out a separate house-to house caste enumeration from June to September next year.

Giving in to demands from almost all political parties, government on Sep 9 2010. decided to hold caste census next year under an exercise to be carried out separately from the enumeration of population.

After several deliberations within the government on the politically-sensitive issue, the Union cabinet decided to carry out a separate house-to-house caste enumeration from June to September next year.

According to home minister P. Chidambaram, after considering various options, the option that we have approved is, based on the responses of various political parties, that caste must be canvassed and the integrity of the headcount must not be affected. The caste enumeration will be conducted in a phased manner after the population enumeration, which will include biometric capture and headcount, is completed by March next year, he said. He evaded a reply when asked whether caste enumeration would be merged with the headcount.

The decision has been taken after considering options suggested by the Group of Ministers (GoM) set up on the issue and the consultations that finance minister Pranab Mukherjee held with leaders of various parties.

A Mathematical Mind:

Algebra originated in India: Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi learned the technique of Indian mathematics and introduced it to the world through his famous book on arithmetic text, the Kitab al-jamwal tafriq bi hisab aI-Hindi ("Book on Addition and Subtraction after the Method of the Indians"), around 780-850 A.D The first use of algebraic transformation was described by Brahmagupta in his book Brahmasphutasiddhanta, where he first proposed solution of Linear Algebra and Quadratic Equation.
The ancient Indian mathematicians were also very familiar with Trigonometry. Aryabhata in 499, gave tables of half chords which are now known as sine tables, along with cosine tables. He used zya for sine, kotizya for cosine, and otkram zya for inverse sine, and also introduced the versine.
The largest numbers the Greeks and the Romans used were 106 whereas numbers as big as 10 to the power of 53 with specific names were used in ancient India.
The Place Value System' and the 'Decimal System' were .developed in India in 1 00 B.C.
