70. Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow based on your understanding of the passage.

Communication is the key stone of education. It is the process of exchange. It is derives from a Greek word “Communis” which means “to make common”. The early meaning of communication is derived from Latin word

“Communicare”. Communicare also means “to make common”. Thus ‘com’ means having a  common experience with other people. Communication is a process of give and take of ideas which blend into a mutual understanding of a theory, principle or fact. Communication is a process of transmission of information from the sender to the receiver and vice-versa. It means getting across ideas and information to another person. According to John Dewey “Communication is a process of sharing experience till it becomes a common possession”. Effective Communication is a two way process including feedback and interaction. Communication involves interaction which involves give and take. Communication is chief means of teaching learning process. Communication process involves three things, sender, receiver and content. Aristotle said that Communication is a means of presentation to influence the other,  so that the desired effect is achieved. The dictionary meaning of “Intra” is within and “Inter” is between or among. Inter personal Communication means the Communication that takes place between two or more person, here the sender and receiver is two people. There are two basic approaches that define interpersonal Communication. One approach includes all the ways in which people influence each other. The other approach believes that Communication should be limited only to the intentional interaction that takes place with the help of symbols. On the other hand, inter Communication means the Communication

that takes place within the individual, here the sender and the receiver is the same person. When a person faces a problem, he wants to solve the problem. In that way, some interaction takes place within himself.
