Question

Q4. Precise Writing- Summarize the given passage and also give a suitable title.


One of our most difficult problems is what we call discipline and it is really very complex. You

see, society feels that it must control or discipline the citizen, shape his mind according to certain

religious, social, moral and economic patterns.

Now, is discipline necessary at all? Please listen carefully. Don’t immediately say YES or NO.

Most of us feel, especially while we are young, that there should be no discipline, that we should

be allowed to do whatever we like and we think that is freedom. But merely to say that we

should be free and so on has very little meaning without understanding the whole problem of

discipline.

The keen athlete is disciplining himself the whole time, isn’t he? His joy in playing games and

the very necessity to keep fit makes him go to bed early, refrain from smoking, eat the right food

and generally observe the rules of good health. His discipline and punctuality is not an

imposition but a natural outcome of his enjoyment of athletics.
