March 6, 2017    

SSC CGL DESCRIPTIVE PAPER
Dear Students, In our Previous article on descriptive paper for SSC CGL 2016, we have elaborated on the topic of precis writing. Today we're providing to you a passage for practice. First go through our post on the approach and tricks on Precis writing. Then Solve this passage. Some tips before you attempt it: Read the passage 2 or 3 times for beginners, then write 2 to 3 drafts unless you feel it is right, then Read your final draft. 
Important Tip: A Precis should be written in Indirect speech, after a "verb of saying" in the past tense. 

We will post enough questions on precis so that you can practice and be prepared for the exam on 19th March, 2017. 

Direction: Make a precis of the following passage in your own words as far as practicable in not more than one-third of its length and also assign a suitable. 


A stamp is, to many people, just a slip of paper that takes a letter from one town or country to another. They are unable to understand why we stamp collectors find so much pleasure in collecting them and how we find the time in which to indulge in our hobby. To them it seems a waste of time, a waste of effort and a waste of money. But they do not realise that there are many why do buy stamps, many who find the effort worth-while and many who, if they did not spend their time collecting stamps, would spend it less profitably. We all seek something to do in our leisure hours and what better occupation is there to keep us out of mischief than that of collecting stamps? An album, a packet of hinges, a new supply of stamps, and the time passes swiftly and pleasantly.
