IV. Summarize the given passage to one third of its length: Give a suitable title: (1 x 10 = 10)
When we survey our lives and efforts we soon observe that almost the whole of our actions
and desires are bound up with the existence of other human beings. We notice that whole nature

resembles that of the social animals. We eat food that others have produced, wear clothes thatothers have made, live in houses that others have built. The greater part of our knowledge and
beliefs have been passed on to us by other people through the medium of a language which
others have created. Without language and mental capacities, we would have been poor indeed
comparable to higher animals.

We have, therefore, to admit that we owe our principal knowledge over the least to the fact of
living in human society. The individual if left alone from birth would remain primitive and beast
like in his thoughts and feelings to a degree that we can hardly imagine. The individual is what
he is and has the significance that he has, not much in virtue of the individuality, but rather as a

member of a great human community, which directs his material and spiritual existence from thecradle to grave.
