Question

Precis Writing :-
We all know what we mean by a "good" man. The ideally good man does not drink

or smoke, avoids bad language, converses in the presence of men only exactly as

he would if there were ladies present, attends church regularly and holds the

correct opinion on all subjects. He has a wholesome horror of wrong-doing and

realizes that it is our painful duty to castigate sin. He has a still greater horror of

wrong thinking, and considers it the business of the authorities to safeguard the

young against those who question the wisdom of the views generally accepted by

middle-aged successful citizens. Apart from his professional duties, at which he is

assiduous, he spends much time in good works: he may encourage patriotism and

military training; he may promote industry, sobriety and virtue among wage

earners and their children by seeing to it that failures in these respects receive due

punishment; he may be a trustee of a university and prevent an ill-judged respect

for learning from allowing the employment of professors with subversive ideas.

Above all, of course, his "morals" in the narrow sense must be irreproachable.​
