It responds that his novels depicted the suffering of Filipinos under Spanish rule, which would stir nationalism in readers by touching their hearts. The second assessment describes 19th century Philippines as having a cash crop economy with monopolies, social restrictions on women, and Spain as the colonial political authority. It then briefly compares the 20th century, noting US influence after independence, economic issues under Marcos, and the problems of crony capitalism.

    LIFE AND WORK OF RIZAL

    ASSESSMENT 1

    B.

    1.Think of a recent novel or story that you’ve read. How did you learn from thestory?

    The Twisted Root is a novel that is full of twists and morals. I learned a lot of things from the story
    through its cogent manner in telling the sequences and the plots of its every series. Withal, the novel
    also depicts a real life situation especially the lives of the teenagers and through depicting those lives, it
    made a lot of realization and learnings within me.

    2. Apply this experience to Rizal’s writings.How would reading Rizal’s novel impact patriotism?

    Rizal's novel would impact patriotism to the readers in the means of depicting and delineating also the
    lives of every Filipinos in the hands of Spaniards. Through portraying the sufferings, the agonies and the
    distress felt by our ancestors during that era which will surely contact and touch the hearts of every
    Filipinos and stir the nationalism deep inside them.

    ASSESSMENT 2

    1. Describe the nineteenth century Philippines based on the economic, social and political aspect.

    Based on the economic aspect in 19th century, there were galleon trade with the route Maynila,
    monopolies, cash crop economy, opening of ports and the opening of the Suez Canal. Also, Filipinos
    were not allowed to trade with the other countries. There is also a monopoly in the industry like
    tobacco. The wages during the Spanish era are around 2 pesos and it would suffice to the needs of a
    Filipino family. The economy as compare today is far greater. There are systems of banking. There is also
    a tax collection. On the social aspect, women were allowed to stay only in their homes and in schools
    that is exclusively for them under the supervision of nuns. They were not allowed to study about
    different profession or field of study that requires application in the society. They only teach how to be a
    good wife and mother and women were not free to socialize with men. Lastly, in the political aspect, the
    Philippines is under the colony of Spain and the monarchy. The head of the Philippines is the governor-
    general. Only men were allowed to vote. Women were not allowed to take a position in the
    government. Child or human sacrifices is prohibited. Divorce and polygamy are prohibited, one system
    of government.
    1. How will you compare it in the twentieth century?

    In the twentieth century, at the time of independence in 1946, and in the aftermath of a destructive
    wartime occupation by Japan, Philippine reliance on the United States was even more apparent. To gain
    access to reconstruction assistance from the United States, the Philippines agreed to maintain its prewar
    exchange rate with the United States dollar and not to restrict imports from the United States. For a
    while the aid inflow from the United States offset the negative balance of trade, but by 1949, the
    economy had entered a crisis. The Philippine government responded by instituting import and foreign-
    exchange controls that lasted until the early 1960s. And in September 1972, Marcos declared martial
    law, claiming that the country was faced with revolutions from both the left and the right. He gathered
    around him a group of businessmen, used presidential decrees and letters of instruction to provide them
    with monopoly positions within the economy, and began channeling resources to himself and his
    associates, instituting what came to be called "crony capitalism." By the time Marcos fled the Philippines
    in February 1986, monopolization and corruption had severely crippled the economy.
