Master the CBSE Class 10th English Language and Literature curriculum for the 2025-2026 academic session with the definitive "All in One English Language and Literature CBSE Class 10th 2026" guidebook from Arihant Prakashan. Expertly authored by Parneet Kaur and Neha Vats, this comprehensive book is meticulously designed to be a one-stop solution, seamlessly integrating syllabus coverage, skill development, and rigorous exam preparation. It is the ultimate resource for students aiming to achieve exceptional scores in their CBSE Board Exams.
This guide is perfectly aligned with the latest CBSE syllabus, ensuring every topic and skill prescribed by the board is covered in depth. The content is strategically divided into three core sections, mirroring the exam structure: Section A: Reading Skills, Section B: Writing Skills and Grammar, and Section C: Literature Books & Supplementary Reader. This logical organization allows for systematic study and targeted practice, building a strong foundation in both language competence and literary appreciation.
Section A: Reading Skills empowers students to tackle the challenging Reading Comprehension section of the exam. It moves beyond basic understanding to hone critical skills like interpretation, analysis, inference, and evaluation. With solved examples, review exercises, and assessment exercises based on both discursive and case-based factual passages (including visual data interpretation), students gain confidence in handling unseen passages of varying complexity and question formats.
Section B: Writing Skills and Grammar is a powerhouse of practical application. The Writing Skills segment provides crystal-clear guidance and solved examples for formal letter writing and analytical paragraph writing—key areas with significant scoring potential. Students learn structured formats, appropriate tone, and logical flow of ideas. The Grammar section offers focused chapters on all essential topics: tenses, modals, determiners, subject-verb concord, and reported speech. The emphasis is on application, preparing students for the grammar-based questions through rules, examples, and extensive practice exercises that mirror the gap-filling, editing, and transformation tasks seen in board papers.
Section C: Literature books & Supplementary Reader delivers exhaustive coverage of the prescribed NCERT books, Beehive and Moments. Every chapter from the Prose, Poetry (including poems like Dust of Snow, Fire and Ice, and Amanda!), and Play (The Proposal) sections is thoroughly analyzed. Similarly, all chapters from the Supplementary Reader (The Thief’s Story, The Midnight Visitor, Bholi, etc.) are covered. This section ensures students grasp themes, character sketches, plot details, and poetic devices, preparing them for both reference-to-context questions and short/long answer questions.
A defining feature of this CBSE Class 10 English guide is its unparalleled exam preparation toolkit. The book includes a dedicated section for Assessment of Speaking & Listening Skills (ASL), a crucial internal assessment component. Most importantly, it provides the ultimate practice platform with the solved CBSE Examination Paper 2025 and five solved sample question papers designed as per the latest CBSE blueprint and marking scheme. These papers enable students to simulate the real exam environment, manage time effectively, and self-assess their readiness.
