Answer #1
Definition of communication - Communication is an integral part of human beings
existence. Communication is a way to express once feelings to others. Communication is an
exchange of effects ideas opinions or emotions by two or more person.
❖ Communication is a communion by words, letter, symbol, messages and as a way that
one organization member shares meaning with the other. Communication is a process
by which we or anyone can understand others and in turn to be understood by them as
well. Communication is a dynamic constantly changing and shifting in response to the
total situation. According to a Clevenger, “communication is a term used to refer to
any dynamic, information sharing process.”
❖ In a simple language communication linked people together in an organization to
achieve a common purpose. Communication aims to make people work together for
the common good of the organization.
❖ Communication helps in establishment of an organization. Communication facilitate
the development of plans for the achievement of goals. Communication helps in
selection, development and appraisals of member of the organization. It facilitates
control and evaluation of performance. There are two types of communication first
one is verbal communication and second one is nonverbal communication.
Barriers to communication - during communication there’s a possibility of her interference
which may hinder the communication process and such interference is known as barriers to
communication.
Following are the four barriers two communication with example:-
1. Language and cultural differences
2. Receivers attitude and behaviour
3. Lack of planning
4. Faculty translations

➢ Language and cultural differences-


The receiver may not completely understand the language used by transmitter. Which
occur if transmitters language is foreign to the receiver. And if there is a technical
information and the receiver is not familiar with technical terms. Cultural differences
are caused in or created by an individual’s background and experiences which can
affect their perception of the world. Such cultural differences may affect the
interpretation of the message sent.
➢ Receivers attitude and behavior-
If the receiver is not interested in the message or conversation the amount of
information received may be drastically reduced this also happens that it lead to here
the information inaccurately because the receiver is not interested to hear the
conversation. Similarly the receiver may misinterpret the message by jumping to
conclusions or reading the message in a manner that suits its own interests or
objectives and distort the true meaning of the message.

➢ Lack of planning-
If the person who is communicating did not gives sufficient time to think plan and
state the purpose of message then that communication would be ineffective. Suppose
the person who is communicating if he doesn’t plan how to talk with his manager or
with his senior or anyone else then the communication will be ineffective. So during
communication it is necessary to plan.

➢ Faculty translations-
Any person may receives many type of messages from superiors, peers, subordinates,
colleagues, or from any person which in turn must translate information meant from
another person into a language that can be easily understood by then. Translation is a
very important part of communication because if individual didn’t understand what
another person said to him then it is useless communication for individual. When a
message is transmitted from sender to a receiver, it must be accompanied with
interpretation so as to enable the receiver to understand the message. Similarly,
translation is very important to understand the messages or lectures.
Answer #2
Listening is a highly complex interactive process, by which spoken language is converted two
meaning in the mind. Listening is more than just hearing.
Listening is an active process. Listening involves the conscious desire to determine the
meaning of what is heard. During listening, one is busy in processing the data, reconstructing
the data and also giving meaning to the data. Instead of reprimanding you, if the lecturer talks
about the forthcoming examination and discuss the problem question that could be asked,
students become attentive and listen to him intently with full concentration.
• Strategies for effective listening-
Following or the strategies for effective listening
I. Listen with the full concentration-
▪ Concentration generally require willingness and interest to know what
speaker is saying.
▪ Practicing active listening helps with concentration but there are
elements that contribute to your ability to concentrate on what
someone is saying.
II. Provide clues that you are actively involved or asked some question regarding
conversations so speaker think that you are actively involved in the
conversation-
▪ If full on listener provide clues that he or she is listening actively then
conversation can go a long way. It is important to speaker to feel that
you care about what he or she is saying.
▪ This is because it tends to send a message about whether or not the
listener cares about the speaker in a general way. When people don’t
feel that you care about them they don’t trust you and the
communication process quickly breaks down.
▪ So it is important to use verbal and nonverbal clues that you are
listening including your eye contact gestures and acknowledging
statement. All this thing helps too good conversation in a long way.
▪ It is very important to feel speaker that you are hearing his or her
conversation.
III. Refrain from formulating an immediate response –
▪ It is very important to refrain from formulating an immediate response.
A listener won’t be able to fully concentrate on forming
▪ A genuine understanding of what the speaker is trying to say if you are
too busy thinking about what you are going to say in response to them
whatever it is is your turn to talk.
IV. Try to prepare beforehand –
▪ Preparation plays an important role in every field whether it is an exam
or listening. Preparation can have a huge impact on the outcome of a
dialogue or any form of communication.
▪ To prepare for an interaction where effective listening will be
important, it is essential to keep in mind the purpose for the exchange.
▪ It is very important to prepare what decisions do we made during
conversation and how the collaboration between sender and receiver
relates are important factor.
▪ Listener also prepares did how approach the situation or conversation
with the attitude of really caring to know the truth.
V. Be prepared to accept revisions –
▪ If a listener have willingness to accept revisions that will keep the
communication process running smoothly. Often people are so busy
trying to defend their position that they fail to really stop and think
whatever they could be improved upon in a different way.
▪ It is very important to accept mistakes and revisions during listening.
And good listener must be prepared to accept revisions.
VI. Be sure the environment is conductive to listen-
▪ According to me, this is the most important step to be a good listener.
Choosing the right environment is important because it will help the
listener focus and avoid the distractions and background noises etc.
▪ Generally it is best to avoid areas where there are high level of
activities, loud noises, and uncomfortable temperature, poor air flow,
etc. If the environment is conducive to listening or to listen then
listener is comfortable to listen what the speaker said as well as listener
will listen with full concentration.
Types of listening- listening can be categorized on the basis of the intention of the listener.
Followings are the types of listening :-
o Discriminative listening-
o Discriminative listening is the most basic type of listening, where difference
between sound is identified by the listener. If the listener cannot identify
differences.
o If the listener cannot identify differences then listener cannot make sense of
the meaning that is expressed by such differences. Listening is a visual as well
as auditory act.
o As we communicate much through body language we need to be able to
discriminate between muscles and skeletal movement that signify hotel
different meanings.
o Comprehensive listening-
o It is very important to learn sense of the sound. To comprehend the meaning,
listener requires amount of words and all rules for grammar and syntax by
which listener can understand what others are saying.
o In communication, some words are more important than some less so, and
comprehension often benefits from extraction of a key facts and item from a
verbose communication. Comprehension is a very important part of a
listening.
o Evaluative listening-
o Evaluative listening is also called critical listening because we can make
judgments about what the others are saying.
o Evaluative listening his particularly relevant when the other person is trying
to persuade us, perhaps to change our behaviour and maybe even to change
our beliefs.
o Appreciative listening –
o In appreciative listening, the main intention is to seek certain information
which will be appreciated for this job a listener used appreciative listening
when he or she are listening to good music poetry or maybe even the stirring
words of a great leader.
o Appreciate you listening is the most important part of effective listening. It is
very important for the listener to appreciate it the speaker.
o Empathetic listening-
o When listening listen theoretically, the listener seeks to understand the beliefs,
modes, emotion and goals of other people. This requires excellent
discrimination and close attention to the nuances of her emotional signals.
o Therapeutic listening-
o In this type of listening, the listener has a purpose of not only empathizing
with the speaker, but also to use this deep connection in order to help them
speaker understand, change or develop in some way.
o Dialogic listening-
o The word dialogic theme from a Greek word in which dia means true And Logos
meaning word. Does biologic listening means learning through conversation first job
It is an engaged interchange of ideas and information in which we actively seek to
learn more about the person and how they think. Dialogic listening is sometime
known as a relational listening Because with the help of an exchange of ideas by
listening we also indirectly create a relation.

Answer #3
Paragraph-
The smallest unit of prose composition is the paragraph. A paragraph may be defined
as a group of sentences relating to a single topic, or developing a central idea. In a
sentence contain one main thought, in the same way a paragraph contains one main
topic or theme.
All the sentences shouldn’t be grouped that they must serve to develop the main
theme.
Letters, essay stories, etc divided into paragraphs with each paragraph developing a
single idea.
A good paragraph is like a strong chain, It has no loose or weak links.
A paragraph may be longer shot, but it is best to keep that paragraph just as long or as short
because it is necessary for the development of a particular theme.
Unity, order and variety are some components required for a good paragraph first.
• Unity – a good paragraph never contains more than one topic. And a good paragraph
is 1 whose theme can be expressed in a one sentence which is called topic sentence.
• Order – a good paragraph the sentences are always arranged in a logical manner. The
events are given in a particular order high from the order in which they occur. A well
written paragraph shows clear thinking and logical arrangement.
• Variety – a good paragraph must contain both long and short sentences. Sentences are
of varied construction and those of a different length.
Topic sentences, supporting details and closing sentence are some parts of the paragraph
which is very important while writing a paragraph.
❖ Writing paragraph – so basically paragraph writing is nothing but it how A
person turn his ideas into a sentence.

For writing a paragraph 5 writing steps are required which are mentioned below:-
1. First and most basic step is open notebook a word processor wherever user or
person wants to write a paragraph.
2. Write the topic sentence, supporting sentence and closing sentence.
3. Write clear and simple sentences to express your meaning. It is very necessary
for the user to write it the ideas end to a sentence but in a very simple manner
or we can say that a user have to write a very simple sentence so that everyone
can understand what he or she is right in his paragraph or her paragraph.
4. Focus on the main idea of your paragraph. A paragraph is always precise.
5. While writing a paragraph it is very important for a person or a user to express
their feelings so it is nothing wrong if a person or a user can use dictionary to
find some additional words so that he or she can express his or her feelings in
a sentence very easily.
Beside these five steps there are some more points to consider for writing a good paragraph.
Grammar and spellings checking is must while writing a paragraph. Make sure that each
sentence makes sense. Check the work tenses of each sentence.
Make sure is sentence has a subject. Style and organization is also necessary by writing a
paragraph Make sure your paragraph has a topic sentence.
Make sure your supporting sentences focus on the main idea. It is very important to check
that all your sentences focus on the main idea.
