Answer 1

There is no direct way to get , except you can do by using split summary feature available in Drupal

or if you have little bit knowledge in PHP you can tune the function node_teaser() in node.module for your requirements

Answer 2

I found myself unsatisfied with the way that Drupal handles teasers. My users found it very confusing to have to insert a special mark in the body (even though FCK Editor provides a button), and to use the checkbox to say whether the teaser should be included in the article.

My solution was to add a new (CCK) field that contains the teaser, and use the hook_nodeapi call to copy my CCK teaser into the node's teaser field when an article node is loaded. This makes sure that my teaser shows up everywhere the Drupal teaser is expected.
