Q.1 Make pr?cis of the following passage
These are two considerations which deserve at least a word in any discussion of the
future of the Indian theatre. The first is the rapid development of the cinema as a
competitive for prophesied favor. At first, in the early flush of cinematic triumph
people?some of whom might have been expected to, know better?prophesies the
extinction of the theatre. It is now clear that though here and there, temporarily, the
theatre may be affected, the cinema cannot hope to replace the stage and elbow it
out of existence. Experience in the West has shown that the stage will always be
required as a federal studio. For the technique is different and great stage actors
have, always, to their disgust, discovered that film acting is at least only second
best to them; it cannot mean to them what the stage means. Something is lacking in
the human touch. In the theatre heart responds to heart and mind acts on mind in a
way unknown to the cinema. Thus there is no danger of extinction to the theatre.
On the other hand, the rivalry of the screen ought to and will put theatre to a new
test and give it a new stimulus that may well lead to still higher planes of artistic
achievement.
