Dear Students,
The warmest welcome to Std X. We are delighted to place this textbook
‘English Kumarbharati’ in your hands.
English has been a part of your studies since Std I. So far, you have learned
to use English for communication in most situations. You have enjoyed some
interesting stories and passages in the previous textbooks. You have completed
many projects. You have read the works of many well-known writers. Now that
you are in Std X, you will do all this and also learn to use English with a better
understanding of the language and the way it is used. What is more, you will
enjoy the flavor of English literature, as well.

English is not just a subject in your curriculum. It is the medium through
which you learn all other subjects. Good command of the language will
make it easier for you to study other subjects, too. Our main aim is to help you
use English with confidence. We would like you to be able to confidently ask
questions, gain knowledge and use new skills, perfect your oral and written
communication skill, be creative and spend your free time joyfully. That is
why we urge you to take part in all the activities and exercises in the ‘Warming
up’ and ‘English Workshop’ sections, with zest and enthusiasm. Talk to your
teacher freely about the problems and difficulties you face while studying this
textbook. Many of the activities are designed to show you ways of thinking and
learning on your own. The more you use them, the better you will learn.
We have focussed upon linguistic items in the Language Study (Grammar
and Vocabulary) activities. The textbook also aims to help students to attain a
proficiency level in English, whereby you can directly 'think' in English rather
than think in your mother tongue and translate your thoughts into English. This
proficiency is indispensable, especially when you are reading between lines,
understanding ideas, contemplating, figuring out your responses to activities, and planning your write-ups.
The English language has been accepted as the lingua franca of the world. In
times of increasing globalization, knowledge, understanding, and use of English
in oral and written communication has become the need of the hour. As such,
this textbook offers you an opportunity to reach out to the world.
Useful audio-video teaching-learning material given in each relevant lesson will be available through the Q. R. Code and through the medium of App for additional information. It will be definitely useful for your study.
We will be happy if you share your feelings about the contents of this book with us. We hope you enjoy studying it throughout the year.
Wish you all the best in your studies!
