    Foreword
    The English – Communicative Course (then known as English-Course A) was introduced
    by the CBSE at the secondary level in 1993-94. Though the course materials were renewed
    periodically in 1995, 1997 and 2003, a full-fledged and complete revision was undertaken
    only in 2009 when the Main Course Book, Work Book and Literature Reader for class IX
    were revised on the basis of feedback received from teachers, students and ELT
    professionals.
    As a follow-up the Main Course Book, Literature Reader and Work Book for class X have
    been revised in 2010 and the revised books have come into effect from the academic
    session 2013-14.
    In the Literature Reader for class X one short story, three poems and one play have been
    retained and five new short stories, three new poems and one new play have been
    included. An effort has been made to provide pieces of high literary merit, at the same time
    catering to the varied literary tastes and interests of students. While the overall approach
    and design has remained unchanged, the exercises and tasks have been so framed as to
    raise the standard of interaction and literary appreciation.
    Grammar units have been revisited in the Work Book and some new tasks have been
    included to extend the scope for interaction. Integrated grammar practice units have been
    completely revised keeping the existing examination specifications in mind. The revised
    Workbook is being used with effect from 2013-14.
    In the Main Course Book a sixth unit has been added on the theme 'National Integration',
    retaining the other five themes from the earlier edition. Texts have been chosen with a view
    to appeal to the changing interests of students. All the four language skills have been
    addressed in a systematic manner, providing ample scope for lively interaction on
    contemporary issues.
    The Board would like to acknowledge with thanks the guidance provided by Prof. Kapil
    Kapoor, Convener and the Members of the Committee of Courses in English. Thanks are
    also due to the members of the revision team who have put in much effort and time in
    bringing out these course materials. Dr. Sadhana Parashar, Professor and Director
    (Academics, Research, Training & Innovation), Mr. P. Rajeswary, Education Officer and
    Mrs. Neelima Sharma, Former Consultant (English), CBSE also deserve appreciation for
    their contribution to this revision project.
    Comments for the improvement of the materials are always welcome.

    Vineet Joshi IAS


    Chairman CBSE
