WRITE THE 1/3 SUMMARY OF FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH AND ALSO WRITE ITS TITLE
Time once gone is gone forever". This sentence tells the true value of time. Time gives only one chance. We have to
put all effort and intelligence to make best use of it. Time is really a wonderful thing. It has no beginning and no
ending. All things are born in time, grow in time and then die in time. Time moves at its own pace. It cannot be
controlled. It does not wait for kings or princes and has no pity for beggars. It does not care for anybody. Most of us
think about passing time. We have made clocks and watch to guess its flow. But let me say we cannot divide it or
measure it. People say time is money. But I am saying that it is more precious than money. Money lost can be
recovered, but not the time lost. A moment lost is lost for ever. Time is ever changing. Change is the law of nature.
Nothing is independent of change or time. Mans life is very short but the load of work is much large and difficult.
There is so much to do in one's life. Therefore, we should not waste even a single minute. Every breath, every second
should be used properly and meaningfully.
WRITE THE 1/3 SUMMARY OF FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH AND ALSO WRITE ITS TITLE
How many things can you see in the night sky? A lot! On a clear night you might see the Moon, some planets, and
thousands of sparkling stars. You can see even more with a telescope. You might see stars where before you only
saw dark space. You might see that many stars look larger than others. You might see that some stars that look
white are really red or blue. With bigger telescopes you can see more objects in the sky with great detail. Scientists
believe there are a few things in the sky that we will never see. We will not see them with the biggest telescope in
the world, on the clearest night of the year. That is because they are invisible. They are the mysterious dead stars
called black holes. You may find it hard to imagine that stars die. After all, our Sun is a star. Year after year we see
it up in the sky, burning brightly, giving us heat and light. The Sun certainly doesn't seem to be getting old or weak,
but stars do burn out and die after billions of years.
