This comprehensive book is designed to serve as guide for all the aspirants appearing in UGC-NET/SLET and other competitive examinations with English as a subject. It has been written strictly in accordance with the latest UGC syllabus and pattern. This volume on English contains almost all required information on the subject. The topics are categorically described in an analytical and coherent way. It contains point-wise study material and multiple-choice questions on all the topics covered in the latest UGC-NET/SLET syllabus for all the papers as well as descriptive study matter. The questions have been framed according to the latest techniques and instructions issued by the UGC and state examining bodies. Since this book is for guidance, the students should also consult some more books for detailed study as due to the paucity of space and vastness of syllabus it is not possible to incorporate everything in a single volume. I wish all the best to my readers and seek their comments/ views/suggestions for making the book more useful in its subsequent editions. I hope that the features included in this book would help the learners in preparing themselves for these competitive exams.
Syllabus and pattern, model questions, solved papers and practice papers have been provided in the book for better understanding. Answers to the multiple choice questions are also given. Apart from providing pertinent information, these features are aimed at generating discussion which may lead the learners to further sources of information, and which in turn, will make the learning more interesting. This is especially true of the multiple choice questions which may not necessarily appear in the tests as they are. The usefulness of this book would depend upon the creative exploitation of the information available in the book.
