Why Boys Fail in College. 2nd Year (Prose)

A thought provoking essay that deals with the only aspect that why boys fail in college, its reasons and consequences and above all, the most fruitful, that how the failure can be avoided.
Many type of students have been presented as a proof of the intensity of the observation, the writer observed closely.
 1: A boy with " Nervous Habits " : is the boy who is unable to concentrate on his assignment. He keeps himself busy in the study hours by creating his own world beyond the books. This type of student is seen doing useless activities in the presence of open book. Instead of reading, he remains busy in doing the works which cause him not to study but waste his time. He can avoid this if he seriously makes his mind to focus on book and not paying attention to the things which distract his attention from the book.
2: Mistaken ambition is a very dire cause of boy's failure, observed mostly in Asia. It stops the boy to get education of his own choice, instead it forces the student to work according to the wishes of his parents.
He does not want to become, what his parents want him to be. His attention is no more given importance and he has to walk on the road, constructed by his parents.
3: According to the writer, A brilliant boy who had done very good at School, with just a little effort, fails to get through the college examination. He becomes a victim of superiority complex and thinks that even in college he will float with as little effort as he did in the school. This kind of boy is the most pathetic as all his abilities are going to be wasted without his knowing.

The Rain- Analysis and Explanation

The Rain by W. H. Davies is a beautiful poem telling metaphorically about the nature and the nature of society's wealthiest and the poor people.
W. H. Davies felt himself suffering from the poverty and he had to become a Tramp in order to run his financial affairs.
The Rain describes the attitude of the rich towards the poor. Rain is actually taken as the natural resource which is enjoyed more by the rich than the poor. The rich of the society give alms (the rain water) to the poor coin after coin.
Sweet Noise here, for me, has two meanings: when we drop coins in a pot, it produces a sound, like wise when the rain falls on the leaves it also creates a noise.The Poet is amused by this division of wealth. He is overjoyed when he listens to this particular sound.
Abundance of rich leaves on top indicates that society is controlled by the rich as they are large in number.
They get direct benefit and then according to their own will they pass this to the poor.
Rain is not at all a source of pleasure for the person who goes for daily wages, but he must be glad that the rain is not going to last permanently. The sun will also come out after the rain and it will then brighten the whole scene.
