Tracing A Meaningful Right To Vote., Manmeet Singh Rai Mr. Mar 2011

Tracing A Meaningful Right To Vote., Manmeet Singh Rai Mr.

Manmeet Singh Rai Mr.

Right to vote is sine qua non to a democratic society. The Indian judiciary time and again has emphasized the importance of free and fair elections.

In this turmoil of safeguarding the most essential and sacred process in a democracy the basic question of whether the citizens have a ‘right to vote’? was never answered.

a Comparison of the ROle of Aspect in native and non-native inference
generation in Narrative comprehension
 
The acquisition of English aspect, as opposed to tense, and the information provided by it on the text/discourse level have received increasing attention in recent years (Bardovi-Harlig 1997). At the same time, our understanding of native speakers’ cognitive processing of aspect during text comprehension is sketchy (Magliano & Schleich 2000). The current study compares native and non-native readers’ processing of the effect of aspect on understanding simple narratives. This comparison will allow addressing the question whether English language learners in this study make …
