Question Paper

Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow based on your understanding of the passage

The importance of communication in adult education is vital. The cycle of communication starts at the origin of an idea in the mind of the communicator. It is the origin and source of the message to be communicated. The communicator must be very clear about all the aspects of the idea in his/her mind and about the purpose for which it is to be communicated. Next to it, he/she must be clear about the selection, suitability and usage of the medium. It must be clear enough to replicate the exact meaning in the mind of the communication receiver. The words and sentences must be short, simple and common, so that the message is understood easily and readily. The clarity of thought and expression cannot be maintained if the communicator himself/herself fails to understand his/her subject thoroughly. Sometimes, he/she may know his/her subject but he/she may fail to distinguish between its major and minor aspects. Thus, in order to maintain flow and clarity of thought and expression, the communicator can discard the use of elegant sentences, well-turned phrases and utopian-luxurian language. This is to transfer ideas and thoughts from one mind to another, that is, from communicator to communicatee.
