2. Hostel Life [Model Paper 2009 (A)]
Sometimes students have to live in hostels. There is a great difference between home life and hostel life. At home a student is free. He is under the care and supervision of his parents. They try to give him all the necessary comforts. Such comforts and affections cannot be found in hostels. In hostels, a student gets more freedom than what he gets at home. He also gets lots of facilities which help him in the all-round development of his personality.
Hostel life has its joys. A student enjoys lots of freedom. A hostel is run by a school or college. It is under the supervision of a hostel superintendent. He looks after the students. He also goes around the hostel to see how the students behave. Freedom gives a sense of joy to students in the hostel. They learn a number of virtues here. They have to get up early in the morning.
They have to read during the study period. In the evening they have to play some games. The strict routine of the hostel creates in them a sense of discipline. Hostel life teaches students how to live together. Students from different places come to the hostel. They live together.
They develop the qualities of love, friendliness and co-operation. But there are some disadvantages of hostel life, too. The arrangement for food is generally poor. Again, if freedom is misused, students may lose their moral virtues. Sometimes the boarders develop bad habits and undesirable manners. But on the whole, hostel life is very useful.

The Bhagwat Gita is a holy book of the Hindus. It is said that Lord Krishna himself narrated the reality of life and the duties to be performed while dealing with certain problems, to Aijuna. He had also thrown light on mortality. A great battle was fought at Kurukshetra. It is said that Lord Krishna gave his support to the Pandavas. He was Aijuna’s chariot driver. First, Aijuna refused to fight against his own men. At this Lord Krishna made a long speech.
Lord Krishna advised Aijuna to take heart. He encouraged him to fight. Lord Krishna told him not to think of the result but he should go on doing his duty. He also showed the real nature of the world to Aijuna. Thus Aijuna was convinced of the need to fight. He realized the nothingness of human life.

It tells us that all questions regarding castes, races and religions are meaningless. It also says that all people are the children of God. A man must do his duty.

The Indian Parliament has passed anti-terrorist Bill to combat the meanacing problem of terrorism in the country. Terrorism is being played on international fora.

Books cover innumerable subjects and reading them is always a pleasure.

23. The Value of Discipline [Board Exam, 2009 (A)] Or. Discipline [Model Paper 2010 (A)]
“Discipline regulates our actions and life. ”
Discipline is the crux of life. Its nature leads a law-abiding life, we the human beings must work for a system tht many urge us to a disciplined life. For this we need regularity, punctuality and proper mental set up because it is the discipline that guarantees progress prosperity and success. Discipline is the key to all progress and promotion. In our society, it is essential on out part to live a regulated life so that others may lead a good and harmonious life. We should keep in mind the motto of “Live and let live”.
Indiscipline endangers our survival and the gutters of the nation will be full of dead bodies and blood. Everyone will be killing or hitting the other. There will be a complete disorder and anarchy in society. The progress and project of the nation would come to a standstill. Life will not run smoothly and people will “resort to Jungle rule. Might is right”. This will put our civilization in a great mess.
Discipline has great significance in our life. So we should adopt it naturally from the very beginning so that we may choose and develop a way to lead a disciplined life. The school, colleges and other institutions should impart such type of education should import to the students so that they may lead a disciplined and regulated life.

24. Co-Education [Board Exam. 2009 (A)]
Co-education means the education of girls and boys arranged together in the same school, college or other institutions.
In this modem world segregation of girls and women in any walk of life sound not only ridiculous but also an outdated proposition. However, our outlook towards the opposite sex is unhealthy. If boys and girls are to have a healthy relationship they have to be exposed to one another from an ender age. Mixing up with the opposite sex makes one liberated and the chance of developing wrong notions is less. Some consider that boys and girls are basically different in nature. In a non-coeducational school, this division is further developed. However, there is a definite disadvantage of non-exposure to the opposite sex which can at times lead to complications later in life. The students of non-co-educational backgrounds have greater chances of developing misconceptions and wrong attitudes towards girls.
The sense of competition is more in a co-educational atmosphere Naturally the young people try to impress the members of the opposite sex. One the other hand, in a non-co-educational school, the opposite sex is always an enigma. Conservative thinking leads to false fears. Repression generally brings out the worst in individuals.
Only a healthy understanding of the other sex and the scientific outlook can shape the child’s value as a social being. This can be possible only in a coeducational atmosphere.
