Question

Write a précis for the following passage.

Trees give shade for the benefit of others, and while they themselves stand in the sun and

endure the scorching heat, they produce the fruit of which others profit. The character of good

men is like that of trees. What is the use of this perishable body if no use is made of it for the

benefit of mankind? Sandalwood, the more it is rubbed, the more scent does it yield.

Sugarcane, the more it is peeled and cut up into pieces, the more juice does it produce. The

men who are noble at heart do not lose their qualities even in losing their lives. What matters

whether men praise them or not? What difference does it make whether they die at this

moment or whether lives are prolonged? Happen what may, those who tread in the right path

will not set foot in any other. Life itself is unprofitable to a man who does not live for others.

To live for the mere sake of living one’s life is to live the life of dog and crows. Those who

lay down their lives for the sake of others will assuredly dwell forever in a world of bliss.o
