Do you sometimes feel afraid to ask questions? This is a common feeling, and it can stop you from getting the
              information you need.

              What Happens If You Don't Ask Questions at the Right Time?
              If you don't ask questions when you need to, several things can happen:

                 • Confusion: You might not understand things correctly.
                 • Missed Information: You could miss important details or opportunities.
                 • Mistakes: Without clarification, you might make errors.
                 • Lack of Participation: In class or meetings, not asking questions can make you feel less involved.


              Need for Asking Questions
              A question is a request for information. It could be any type of information, such as an answer to a question in the
              textbook, information about a person or a place or about how to do a task. Asking questions helps us to:
                 • gain new knowledge, get information.
                 • make sure that what we know is correct.
                 • avoid doubts, confusion, misunderstanding.
                 • start talking to people by asking about them and their ideas.


              How to Make Sure We have Complete Information?
              If you do not have information about how to reach a place, you will not be able to reach it. If you do not know how
              to do some work, you will not be able to complete it, unless you ask questions and get information. Asking all the
              correct questions at the right time is also important.

              The method of '5W+1H' is a simple and effective way to ensure that you gather all the essential information
              necessary for completing a task or understanding a situation thoroughly.

              By systematically answering these questions, you ensure that all necessary information is considered, helping you
              plan effectively and achieve success in your work. Here's how it works:
                 • Who: This is about figuring out who is involved in the task or who is responsible for doing it.
                 • What: This helps you understand exactly what needs to be done or what the task is about. For example, for a
                 project, this could mean knowing what topics you need to research.
                 • When: This tells you the timeframe or deadline for completing the task. It helps you plan when you need to
                 finish each part.
                 • Where: This specifies the location or place where the task will happen.
                 • Why: Understanding the reasons or purpose behind the task helps you see its importance.
                 • How: This is about the methods or steps you'll use to complete the task. It helps you plan out what you need
                 to do and how you'll do it.


                       Asking Questions-II
              In our everyday conversations with others, we frequently need to ask questions and respond to them in order
              to gather information. Asking the right questions plays a crucial role in obtaining the right information we need.
              There are two basic types of questions: close-ended and open-ended.


              Closed-Ended Questions
              Closed-ended questions are those that can usually be answered with a simple "yes" or "no" or with a specific piece
              of information. They often have a straightforward answer and the answer options are limited or closed.
