Assimilation: Reading literary tests is quite beneficial. Literature provides not only
pleasure and enjoyment, but also a broad knowledge of several disciplines. I
learned a lot from reading this essay. I knew about the ozone layer and its
importance. I also realized the disadvantages of air conditioners and refrigerators.
Previously, I was careless with these things; I didn't feel anything while using the
AC or fridge, but now I feel bad about destroying the environment when I use
these equipment. I've seen many folks suffer from skin cancer, respiratory issues,
and other ailments. This could have been produced by the sun's UV rays and a
depleted ozone layer. Now I'll try to persuade everyone of my relatives and
families about these issues.
To Know a Fly
Literal comprehension: 'To Know A Fly' is an essay about a scientific
experiment. It has provided the viewpoint that every scientific experiment
should be conducted intentionally and carefully since an experiment
conducted at random may not yield a suitable and acceptable outcome. The
experiment always begins with an act of trust in reality, the cause-and-effect
relationship, rational discovery, and the use of the senses. It proceeds with an
observation and a question. The scientist, in reality, modifies the circumstance,
examines the outcome, and makes a conclusion. As a result, a man who wishes
to perform an experiment must be cautious and cognizant of this worry, as the
most prevalent scientific sin is a lack of sufficient experimental control. The
text begins with an example of a properly planned experiment, which is
followed by an experiment that was done at random. A gentleman once took
off the flea's rear legs and concluded that it hears from the hind legs because it
couldn't jump despite his instruction, and he had already tried amputating
other portions of its body. Similarly, the next individual concluded from his
experiment that the intoxicating characteristic is in glass, not water, or even
other alcoholic liquids such as bourbon, rum, scotch, rye, gin, and so on,
because all of them were combined with water. This type of confusion
between correlation and causation and effect leads to fallacies and scientific
sins. Finally, the book describes the fly's amazing ability to detect and
distinguish sweetness in substance. This is the most productive experiment
carried out by astute observation. It extends its proboscis and tastes the food
to determine if it is sweet or not. It is overly sensitive. It tastes food through its
proboscis.
Interpretation: As a work of scientific literature, the text attempts to convey
the significance of experiments and warns that one must be cautious and
mindful when carrying out the experiment. Otherwise, it has more negative
consequences than positive ones. Similarly, presenting an experiment on the
fly teaches the reader that nature has given each organism unique
characteristics. In this respect, humans cannot be considered superior
organisms in the planet. Because this essay is about a scientific experiment,
the writer is attempting to convince us that a well-conducted scientific
experiment is required to get the best result. We are all living organisms, with
sensitivity, imaginative power, and mental power, and everyone have unique
talents. So the author implies that we humans do not feel proud of ourselves.
Additionally, the writer claims that flying is more sensitive than humans.
Critical Thinking: The essay discusses the theories behind scientific
experimentation and its significance. Naturally, one must be conscious and
cautious, but excessive consciousness is ineffective in all experiments. Many
scientific breakthroughs occur unexpectedly and randomly in experiments. No
scientist works when focused on his creation. Whatever discoveries occur,
they are abrupt and odd. After reading this work, I discovered several
intriguing concepts and some unsatisfactory ones. Some dissatisfied remarks
about this paragraph are as follows:
Third Thoughts
The poet imagines an ideal world in which individuals are fearless, equally valued, and able to walk with
their heads raised. People may gain knowledge freely and without interruption. The globe is not split
into smaller countries based on limited borders. People there will tell the truth and labor tirelessly until
they achieve excellence. Superstition and tradition do not limit the region, and people always reach
reasonable conclusions. In such a free world, the poet wishes God will wake up all of his compatriots.
Rabindranath Tagore wrote the poem "Where The Mind Is Without Fear". In this poem, the author prays
to God for the heavenly country.
Where there is no fear, everyone respects one another. Where the entire planet is one country, no
boundary can separate the nations. Where people discuss the truth in depth. Where individuals achieve
excellence. Where individuals may obtain knowledge freely. Where individuals do not believe in
superstitions but rather seek the truth. Where people have a stronger sense of identity and dignity.
Perhaps this poem is attempting to convey the value of being free of any negative influences in one's
life. The significance of education and knowledge in human existence.
The author strives to establish a paradise nation with open information, brave circumstances, fresh
thinking, no discrimination, new ideas, and a high level of people.
