  Passage - II

  The first word-book to embody the ideals of the age was Nathaniel Bailey's Universal Etymological Dictionary of the English Language, originally published in 1721 and then, in a beautiful volume with illustrations by Flaxman in 1731. This edition was the basis of Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of 1755; through Johnson, it influenced all subsequent lexicographical practice. The position of dictionary pioneer, commonly granted to Johnson or Noah Webster, belongs in reality to one of the few geniuses lexicography ever produced: Nathaniel Bailey. Johnson extended Bailey's technique and also revised Bailey's crude etymologies on the basis of francis Juntus's book. Most Englishmen used the word dictionary as a mere synonym for Jonhson's Dictionary. Being regarded as the ideal word-book, it continued in common use until 1900.

  Failure and success are the go of life. Constant efforts despite initial setbacks have brought us from the chrysalis of failure into the bright opportunity of triumphs. The conquest of Everest is a fitting example. Success eluded men of nearly twenty-five years.

Indeed, every new-born day is in itself an opportunity teeming with splendid chances for those who are alert, wide awake and aspiring.

  Passage - V

  In terms of the total energy consumed by different sectors, the largest consumer is understandably the industrial sector, which accounts for nearly half the total energy used in the country today. This is followed by the transport sector which consumes about 25%, the household sector (about 14%) and the agricultural sector (about 9%). This last sector has, shown considerable increase in energy use over the last four decades. Among the primary fuels, the relative proportion of coal has dropped from nearly 80% to 40% and that of oil has gone up from 17% to 44% over the same period. Total energy consumption in India today is equivalent to 291 million tonnes of oil of which 26% comes from wood. On a per capita basis it works out to about one litre of oil per day, which is extremely low by international standards. The future energy demand depends upon the level of development envisaged and also on the sections of people to be affected by it. The energy disparity between the urban and the rural population is at present as wide as between nations on a worldwide scale. There is apparently a greater need to provide energy in the rural areas and to improve the efficiency of energy use than merely to increase the national figures for energy consumption limiting its use to those who are getting the bulk share already. With the projected rate of population growth, improving upon the per capita energy consumption is a Herculean task as our coal reserves and the capacity to import oil cannot be increased beyond a point. There is clearly no escape from the utilization of renewable energy sources in a big way if the gap between the desired levels of energy supply and available resources has to be kept at the minimum.
