Abstract:Awareness about mission of Non-profit Organisation concerned, attitude of its personnel towards accomplishment of its mission and its contribution to the society play an important role in building the trust and confidence among donors in giving their donation to such organisation. This study investigates the impact of awareness about the unique history of All India Pingalwara Charitable Society (AIPCS) on the trust and confidence of its donors in giving the donation. It has been found that the donors, who are aware of AIPCS history, have more trust and confidence in giving the donation than the unaware donors. This study also examines relationship among awareness, trust and various demographic variables by applying the hierarchical log linear analysis. Finally, this study throws light on the categories of demographic variables on which more impact of awareness has been observed.
Keywords: Awareness, extent of awareness, trust & confidence and donation.

Abstract:Since the nineties of the last century and with the end of the cold war, globalisation is the new catchphrase that has come to dictate the world. If we see to the march of development of from early 1700's till date, globalization has almost become the part of international trade. The result is the emergence of the specialization in international trade in term of exchange of the goods, services and resources. Now with the passing of time, globalization has become a deeply rooted phenomenon, and the result is, a product that has been manufactured in the outmost part of the globe could easily find its way into the market at the other corner of the globe. This is globalization in true sense. As this trend become more and more wellestablished, intellectuals provided it with a theoretical backing for the harmonization of such trend, and the name of that backing was WTO. WTO is one of the most powerful international bodies. In total 134 nation states have acknowledged its vast power. This made WTO to play the role of global government. Its main aim is to promote commercial interests, and any obstacles in the path of development and expansion of global business should be treated secondary.

Abstract:The current research study sets out to analyze the course material of the second language learners to check whether it is sufficient to cater their language needs with particular regard to writing skills. One of the major issues in development of writing skills is about learner-centeredness which raises the question: "Is it the role of students to serve academic institutions or is it the role of institutions to serve students?" The answer to this question is obviously the latter which can be implemented in all academic institutions by understanding learners' needs and getting data from them before designing the teaching materials. It is necessary to know what the learners' objectives are, what they are expecting from the course, and the characteristics of their learning habits.

Abstract: Complex Predicates (CPs) refer to a sequence of elements such as verb and verb (compound verb) or noun/adjective and verb (conjunct verb) combinations. Complex predicates have become the defining feature of South Asian languages. It forms a phrasal unit and shows the properties of string adjacency. Magahi (a member of the Indo-Aryan language family) appears to follow no such fixed adjacency requirements. There is a considerable variation in the intervening elements within the CPs in Indo Aryan languages in general and Magahi in particular. This paper explores the adjacency gap found in Magahi complex predicates. The elements that disrupt the adjacency of the components of CPs are particles, adverbials, interrogative, negation, and post positions. Our goal is to come up with an analysis of this break of adjacency
Keywords:Complex Predicate, Phrasal Integrity, Adjacency, Magahi.
