ACTIVITY SHEET NO 1

Q. Read the extract and complete the activities given below.                             (12 Marks) 

The young lift-man in a City office who threw a passenger out of his lift the other morning and was fined for the offence was undoubtedly in the wrong. It was a question of “Please.” The complainant entering the lift, said, “Top.” The lift-man demanded “Top-please,” and this concession being refused he not only declined to comply with the instruction, but hurled the passenger out of the lift. This, of course was carrying a comment on manner too far. Discourtesy is not a legal offence, and it does not excuse assault and battery. If a burglar breaks into my house and I knock him down, the law will acquit me, and if I am physically assaulted, it will permit me to retaliate with reasonable violence. It does this because the burglar and my assailant have broken quite definite commands of the law. But no legal system could attempt to legislate against bad manners, or could sanction the use of violence against something which it does not itself recognize as a legally punishable offence. And our sympathy with the liftman, we must admit that the law is reasonable. It would never do if we were at liberty to box people’s ears because we did not like their behavior, or the tone of their voices, or the scowl on their faces. Our fists would never be idle, and the gutters of the city would run with blood all day. I may be as uncivil as I may please and the law will protect me against violent retaliation.

I may be haughty or boorish and there is no penalty to pay except the penalty of being written down an ill-mannered fellow. The law does not compel me to say “Please” or to attune my voice to other people’s sensibilities any more than it says that I shall not wax my moustache or dye my hair or wear ringlets down my back. It does not recognize the laceration of our feelings as a case for compensation. There is no allowance for moral and intellectual damages in these matters.

 

A1. State if the given sentences are true or false.                                                    (02)

a.      The young lift man was not punished by law.

b.     Discourtesy is legal offence.

c.      Law will protect you against violent retaliation though you are uncivil.

d.     Moral and intellectual damages can not be compensated by law.

Ans:  a.      The young lift man was not punished by law.

            False

        b.     Discourtesy is legal offence.

            False

        c.      Law will protect you against violent retaliation though you are uncivil.

            True

        d.     Moral and intellectual damages can not be compensated by law.

            True

A2. Describe:                                                                                                              (02)

Note down the impact if we get freedom to hurt someone for uncivil behavior according to   the writer.

Ans: i) Everybody will be ready to fight with each other for uncivility.

        ii) Gutter of city will run with blood of people everyday.                                                                                                                        

A3. Give the reason:                                                                                                   (02)

As per the extract, law can not assist in the case of the lift man but against Burglar, law will assist writer.

Ans: According to the extract discourtesy is not a legal offence. one can not be punished for uncivility as well as it does not excuse assault and battery. in case of the burglar the certain command of the law is broken by burglar so law assist the writer. 

A4. Personal Response:                                                                                             (02)

“Uncivil behavior can pollute the atmosphere of society”.

Explain the statement in your words with suitable example.

Ans: I  strongly support the given statement. Uncivil behaviour definitely pollutes the atmosphere of socoiety. if well cultured person comes under the company of  the bad mannered person for some days, most of time we can notice that the other person also become bad mannered and using abusing words while communication. We must avoid the company of uncivil behaviour.

UNIT 1.2 ON SAYING PLEASE

ACTIVITY SHEET NO : 02

Q. Read the extract and complete the activities given below.                             (12 Marks)    

            This does not mean that the damages are negligible. It is probable that the lift-man was much more acutely hurt by what he regarded as a slur upon his social standing than he would have been if he had a kick on the shins, for which he could have got a legal redress. The pain of a kick on the shins soon passes away but the pain of a wound to our self-respect or our vanity may poison a whole day. I can imagine that lift-man, denied the relief of throwing the author of his wound out of the lift, brooding over the insult by the hour, and visiting his wife in the evening as the only way of restoring his equilibrium. For there are few things more catching than bad temper and bad manners. When Sir Anthony Absolute bullied Captain Absolute, the latter went out and bullied his man, Fag, whereupon Fag went out downstairs and kicked the pageboy. Probably the man who said “Top” to the lift-man was really only getting back on his employer who had not said “Good morning” to him because he himself had been henpecked at breakfast by his wife, to whom the cook had been insolent because the housemaid had “answered her back”. We infect the world with our ill-humours. Bad manners probably do more to poison the stream of the general life than all the crimes in the calendar. For one wife who gets a black eye from an otherwise good natured husband there are a hundred who live a life of martyrdom under the shadow of a morose temper. But all the same the law cannot become the guardian of our private manners. No Decalogue could cover the vast area of offences and no court could administer a law which governed our social civilities, our speech, the tilt of our eyebrows and all our moods and manners. 

        But though we are bound to endorse the verdict against the lift-man, most people will have a certain sympathy with him. While it is true that there is no law that compels us to say “Please”, there is a social practice much older and much more sacred than any law which enjoins us to be civil. And the first requirement of civility is that we should acknowledge a service. “Please” and “Thank you” are the small change with which we pay our ways as social beings. They are the little courtesies by which we keep the machine of life oiled and running sweetly. They put our intercourse upon the basis of a friendly co-operation, an easy give-and-take, instead of on the basis of superiors dictating to inferiors. It is a very vulgar mind that would wish to command where he can have the service for asking, and have it with willingness and good-feeling instead of resentment.

 

A1. Complete the given chain. 

List the people and their behaviour that made the passenger rude and ill mannered.                                                                                                                                                 (02)

XII STD 2.3 THE INCHCAPE ROCK (analysis)

 

POETIC APPRECIATION :

About the poet and tittle:

Robert Southey the Scottish poet has composed the poem Inchcape Rock. It is a ballad noting the legends of the Inchcape Rock, in the north sea about 18  km off the east coast of angus, Scotland.

Theme of the poem: poem narrates about the glorious work of the Abbot of the Aberbrothok and devilish mind Sir Ralph the Rover. To aware and save the ship from the dangerous rock, Abbot of the Aberbrothok had installed the warning bell. The Sir Ralph the Rover was devilish and cunning by mind so he cut the bell in jealousy which leads the wreck of Sir Ralph the Rovers ship in return journey.

Language / Style / Poetic devices: Poem is written in ballad form so it is narrative and bit lengthy. The first two lines and last two lines of each stanza rhymes with each other. It follows the AABB rhyme scheme for each stanza. Poet has enriched this poem by using various figure of speech for enlightenment like alliteration, simile, repetition, Apostrophe, etc.

Special Feature / Message:

The Inchcape Rock is didactic in nature. It’s a ballad convening the glorification of the adventurous work of Abbot of the Aberbrothok and sinful deed of Sir Ralph the Rover. Southey had tried to reform the nature of human mind and aware the reader through his poem by delivering the message of As you sow, so shall you reap.

 Your Opinion about poem:

Poem has captured my mind by its didactive tone and scenic description. Imagery quality of poem creates trills and adventurous effects. Poet has arranged the words successfully to convey his message through his poem.
