CLASS NOTES

CLASS: 5 TOPIC: Unseen Comprehension


SUBJECT: English
# This is a practice worksheet. Students can solve it in their rough copies.
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below.
Games are a vital part of life. They help in keeping the machine of life in good
order. They keep us healthy. They give entertainment to our weary minds.
They remove the monotony of life. Games give us not only physical exercise,
but mental training also. They train both our body and mind. Physically, we
become healthy; mentally we become disciplined. We become healthy both
in our body and mind. A player has to follow the rules of the game. In the
playground, he acts like a disciplined soldier. The sense of discipline becomes
a part of his character.
Games develop sportsmanship. It means that a player has no bitterness in
his heart. He plays the game only for the joy of it. He does not gloat over his
victory; nor does he feel sorrow over his defeat. He fights with the spirit of
healthy competition. An opponent is not an enemy to him. However, excess
of anything is bad. A student should not make games the chief interest of his
life. His studies should not suffer due to his interest in games. He should play
the game to keep good health and thereby to work harder at his books.
