Tip of the Day Summarizing a GD means putting forth a concrete outline of the entire discussion and not just your points. Last year's Question of the day (18-Feb-11) Each of the questions below contains a paragraph followed by alternative summaries. Choose the option that best captures the essence of the text.
In the early 20th century the city became a major shipbuilding centre; it was this industry that led to Nagasaki being chosen as a target for the second atomic bomb dropped on Japan by the United States in World War II. The bomb was dropped on August 9, 1945, and destroyed the innermost portion of Nagasaki; between 60,000 and 80,000 persons were killed. Exact figures are difficult, however, for many records were destroyed by the bomb and the overall devastation of the area made accurate accounting for casualties impossible. Still, estimates indicate that some 40,000 people were killed immediately with the rest dying within the next few months because of burns, injuries, or radiation exposure. The terrain and smaller size of Nagasaki reduced the destruction of life and property as compared to that of the atomic bomb explosion over Hiroshima, although the bomb dropped on Nagasaki was significantly more powerful. About 40 percent of the city's buildings were completely destroyed or severely damaged. Since World War II, the city has been rebuilt and is significant as a spiritual centre for movements to ban nuclear weapons.
| OPTIONS | | | | | 1) | The Japanese city of Nagasaki was a major ship building centre. In World War II the United States dropped the second atomic bomb on Nagasaki, after Hiroshima, which almost decimated the city and killed up to 80,000 people. The city has since been rebuilt and is significant in the campaign against nuclear weapons. | | | 2) | The Japanese city of Nagasaki was a major ship building centre.
