II. Make Précis of the following Passage: (20)
 The first thing necessary to the pleasure of reading is that when people
are young they should acquire the habit of reading. This is becoming more and
more difficult. Before I was aware of things in the world, the penny post had
already begun make a change adverse to reading by consuming a vast amount
of time in correspondence that was unnecessary, trivial or irksome. Railways
have altered people’s habit by making them move about much more. But
railways have this compensating advantage that, although they take people
much away from home, a long railway journey affords a first rate opportunity
for reading. They are not, therefore, an unmixed disadvantage. But now things
are changing. The motor-car is altogether unfavourable to reading. People
consume more time in moving about than they did and they consume it under
conditions which, even, for people with good eyes, must make reading difficult,
if not impossible. The telephone is a deadly disadvantage; it minces time into
fragments and slays the spirit. Wireless, with all its delights, is now being added
as a distraction to divert people from time that might be given to the pleasure of
reading. All these things must make it more difficult for successive generations
to acquire the habit of reading, and if that habit be acquired, to maintain it.
Even before all these changes, it was not easy to maintain the habit, but it
could be done.
