Conjunctions are connectors that are various of kinds, interjections
are those that express strong emotions, while prepositions indicate
time, place, or movement; these take on nouns for objects.

Do You Remember?

Distinguish one from the other: precis, paraphrase and

summary.
A precis is a written account of something that gives important
points but no details. Paraphrasing means that getting someone
else’s idea in your own words. Summarizing is taking a lot of
information and creates a shorter version that covers the main
points.

- Storyline/organization means that we should observe if the

storyline is good enough, are purposed established or not.
Soundtrack/musical score is where we observe if noises are
minimized, are there optical mics, etc. Content completeness is
where we observe if the presentation is accurate and if there are
no errors made. Clips, images are where we observe the distinct
tone of images and if there are symbolisms used. Props,
costumes are the criteria where we observe whether they put full
effort in making the props and the costumes. Editing is the
criteria where we observe if the story is told with the right
amount of detail. Acting this is where we observe if the actors
acted well. Cinematography is the criteria where we observe if

(title)
When I saw Chris Evans and Jason Statham’s name on the casts, I
_________________________________________________
got excited watching it because they’re one of my favorite actors. I
_____________________________________________________
personally think that this is one of their underrated movies. Chris Evan is
very well-known as Captain America and Jason Statham is known as the
_____________________________________________________
Transporter. This movie seems to be a crime thriller movie wherein Chris
Evan’s stays on his phone with a woman who say’s she has been
_____________________________________________________
kidnapped.
_____________________________________________________
The plot of this movie seems to be something like a scheme, and
_____________________________________________________
also this movie seems to be convincing. This movie, Cellular seems to be
well plotted and well-acted including the number of ways you can use a
single phone. It can be a telephone or a plot device.
_________________________________________________
In the movie, Jessica, a high school teacher was kidnapped by a
_____________________________________________________
violent group of men who held her as a prisoner and wants something her
husband has that she has no knowledge of. The group of men was leaded
_____________________________________________________
by Jason Statham’s character. They were also planning on kidnapping
_____________________________________________________
Jessica’s son. Jessica’s house has a telephone on the attic which the men
smashed into bits, but as a science teacher, Jessica knows her ways.
_____________________________________________________
Jessica connected the wires together to make a random call. She reached
_____________________________________________________
Chris Evan’s character which at first doesn’t believe that she was
kidnapped, but later on gets convinced by her voice. Chris Evan’s
character went to a police station and handed them the phone. The police
_________________________________________________
whom he handed the phone also got convinced by Jessica’s voice.
_____________________________________________________
The action scenes are over the top which is what I like about
_____________________________________________________
movies the most. The action scenes may be unrealistic but I go along since
the strategies and motives of each characters were clear. I can’t say
_____________________________________________________
anything about the crime scenes, they were great at doing it. What I like
the most is that how they use phones in many ways. It can be used for
_____________________________________________________
other things except for making calls, they can be used for preserving
_____________________________________________________
evidence, can record callbacks, it can be also used for emergency alarm
systems.

Video games are games that include interaction with a device. I
_________________________________________________
like video games because they keep me distracted if I am not feeling well

or when I am stressed. Video games are the only ones that keeps me
busy when I am alone and I need attention. I play video games because I

Implicit and Explicit Claims of Texts

Name Naomi Angel L. Belonio Date ______

Course & Section 11 STEM 2 Score __

Do You Remember?

Try differentiating the implicit from the explicit.

- Implicit is something that is understood but not completely stated. Explicit
is something that is clearly stated.

Try This!

Recall at least three (3) lines from a movie you saw. Explore the possibilities
regarding the implicit ideas behind the explicit ones (outrightly said) given.

A whisker away
- “The world is filled with things I hate and things I don’t need.
But if there’s nothing when I step out of here, I wouldn’t want
that.” – Hinode. For me, this line is an example of an explicit
idea with implicit behind it. I can say that this is an explicit idea
because it isn’t stated what things he hates and what things
that he needs. He might be implying on a person or a thing,
but he clearly said that the world is full of things he hates and
doesn’t need.

Your Name
- “Once in a while when I wake up. I find myself crying.” –
Mitsuha Miyamizu. I think this is an example of an explicit idea
with implicit behind it because it is clearly stated that she
wakes up and finds herself crying, but the reason behind her
tears isn’t clear.

Anohana
“I thought I could just apologize tomorrow. But that tomorrow never
came.” – Jinta Yadomi

- Her father and Homer Barron

2. What set tongues wagging when she went out with Homer Barron?

- The people think they were married.

3. Why do you think she forced Homer Barron to stay?

- I think she forced Barron to stay because she has no one to rely on.

4. Would you force someone to stay in a relationship?

- I wouldn’t force someone into a relationship because everyone has their

own freedom. If they don’t want me anymore, so be it. I won’t force them

to stay with me because they have their own lives and they are free to do

what they want.

5. What was the significance of the arsenic she bought with the smell that
plagued the neighbor causing them to spray lime around and in her house?

- I think she did that because she wanted someone to take care and look for

her because she needed a parent figure.

6. What could she have done to the man? Cite your proof. How does this tie
up with the last three (3) paragraphs?

Being in a relationship is fun, but when someone is forced to
_________________________________________________
stay in a relationship, it isn’t fun at all. It isn’t okay to force someone to

stay with you because it can be bad for their own health. Forcing
someone to stay is such a toxic trait that it can actually make someone

depressed. It can cause someone to have mental health problems. For
me, no one should be forced in a relationship. If they don’t have
_____________________________________________________
feelings for them anymore, talk it out.
_____________________________________________________
People have the right to freely say what they want. If you don’t

because if you let guilt take over, you’re letting someone force you to

Family
(title)
Even though I want to get ahead of life or I wanted to be fed, I
_________________________________________________
wouldn’t wish my loved ones to be dead. As the youngest in the family,
I’ve seen how they all took care of me ever since I grew up. They all loved
_____________________________________________________
me dearly and I want to pay them back. Even if the time comes that we
_____________________________________________________
don’t have any food anymore, I would work hard so that we can eat
something good. I wouldn’t wish my family to be dead.
_____________________________________________________
I’ve seen how my parents work so hard so that we can eat
_____________________________________________________
something good and so we can have full stomachs. I wanted to do the
_____________________________________________________
same thing and I wanted to take care for them. Yes, they may be harsh at
some times but I still don’t wish them to die because they are important
to me and I love them dearly. My family is my everything and they mean
_________________________________________________
everything to me. Who would wish for their loved ones to die?

Have a 10-sentence write-up on the question: Are Filipinos mild drinkers?

Explain.

Filipinos
(title)
I personally don’t think that Filipinos are mild drinkers. I’ve
_________________________________________________
been born and raised here in the Philippines. I’ve always noticed that
Filipinos like to drink whether there’s an occasion or none. Filipinos
_____________________________________________________
aren’t mild drinkers because I know that lambanog is a type of hard
_____________________________________________________
drink yet Filipinos love it so much. Also, from the story we can see
_____________________________________________________
that the Filipino isn’t affected at all, while the American, fainted after
3_____________________________________________________
shots of lambanog.
Filipinos aren’t mild drinkers. I can say this because I’ve seen
_____________________________________________________
my dad and my uncles drink whenever there’s an occasion or they
just wanted to drink. They start at around 7pm and end at 11pm,
_________________________________________________
they drink hard drinks yet they can stand and go home at around
11pm. The narrator just said in the story that we are mild drinkers
_____________________________________________________
because we are known for being humble at all times.

Keep quiet
(title)
_________________________________________________
At times, it is best to keep quiet and not talk about things. Why?
Because people might misunderstand. People don’t always get what you
_____________________________________________________
say at first. What they would think about those things might be different.
_____________________________________________________
We shouldn’t always share others what we have done or what incident
happened. It is best to keep quiet at times like that because people don’t
_____________________________________________________
always understand.
_________________________________________________
It depends on the person on how he/she interprets the things you
told them. Be mindful, don’t always say things out loud. We should be
_____________________________________________________
choosing the right person and the right time to say things out loud. Don’t
trust anyone around you because we aren’t safe from their minds. People
_____________________________________________________
can turn the story around and this is why we should always keep quiet.
