10 Precise Writing
2. Objectivity
The writer must have an objective approach. He should be able to write a précis
that is unbiased and purely a summary of the original text.
3. Correctness
The writer must ensure that not just the facts, but also the grammar and sentences
are without flaws. Such errors can obscure the meaning of the message.
4. Coherence
A good précis should be coherent i.e. the ideas must be presented in a way
that shows the connections clearly.
5. Completeness
The writer should include all the important facts from the text in the précis.
No important fact can be omitted to make the summary short.
6. Conciseness
Conciseness is a desirable quality of a good précis. A piece of writing is
considered concise if it conveys the message in the fewest possible words.
But the writer should not omit essential facts to achieve conciseness.

Practice
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.
