Q.4) Analyze any two paragraphs of the essay ‘The Importance of Family’ and classify the sentences that support the main idea under the headings of definition, example, cause and effect, facts and opinions.

Basically all the paragraphs of the essay ‘The Importance of Family’ have the essence of coherence. Each and every paragraph of this essay has the topic sentence and the supporting details. Let’s take the example of the first paragraph, the topic sentence states that the family is the first target of tyrants and utopians. The rest of the sentences are supportive to the topic sentence. Similarly, in the next paragraphs, the author tries to prove that family is the natural school of love. Keen says that men and women should come together and share equal responsibilities.

Q.5) What is the point of the 4th paragraph? What do its contents have to do with the thesis of the essay?

Answer:
The point of the 4th paragraph is that once the term economics meant ‘the art of managing household’. This terminology is changed under the influence of industrial revolution when the word economics stands for ‘the system of production, distribution, and consumption of commodities.’ The changed terminology casts a negative impact on the family system and it helps in the degradation of the dignity of the home. The contents of this paragraph are a clear reflection of the thesis of the essay as it is all about the importance of family.

Q.6) Keen says, “We heal ourselves by learning to give to our children what we did not receive.” What does he mean? Do you agree?

Answer:
I totally agree with Keen’s point of view that ‘We heal ourselves by learning to give to our children what we did not receive.’ Here, Keen wants to say that if we ourselves were the unfortunate ones to get the loving father or the perfect family system, we should try to become a good father or develop strong family relationships. In this way, we can heal all our past sorrows and pains. Hence, we should try to give to our children what we have longed throughout our lives.

Writing

A. Keen believes that “the family is the first line of defence against dehumanization and misplaced loyalty.” Do you agree or disagree with this statement. Write about your reaction.

Answer:
Yes, I agree with what Keen believes that “the family is the first line of defence against dehumanization and misplaced loyalty.” It is true, as within the premises of a home, a family may enjoy the freedom to think, speak, and worship according to their will. Many thinkers or social activists try to give rise to the aspect of dehumanization and misplaced loyalty and they have done a great deal in promoting their desire.

Due to such elements, people are pushed silently but ruthlessly towards a new economic order where they give more importance to their economic development as compared to family life. In this case, according to Keen “efficiency is preferred above compassion, and devotion to the competitive goals of the corporation over loyalty to family. “

B. An extended family, consisting of parents like father, mother, and their children, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins, all living in the same household, is on the decline. The extended families are gradually shrinking into a nuclear family system, consisting of parents and their children.
Write a letter to the editor of a newspaper on the causes of the decline of extended family and its effects on the social, cultural and moral of our young generation.
