Back of the smokehouse into the lot,And
across the filed.
And I meant to kill him on sight.
But that day, walking near Fourth Bridge,
All of a sudden I saw him standing,
Scared to death, holding his rabbits,
And all I could say was, “Don’t, Don’t
Don’t,”

excerpt and answer the questions that
follows
In your hands, my fellow citizens,
more than mine, will rest the final success
or failure of our course. Since this country
as founded, each generation of Americas
has been summoned to give testimony to
its national loyalty. The graves of young
Americans into answered the call to service
surround the globe.
Now the trumpet summons us
again-not as a call to bear arms, though
arms we need, not as a call to battle,
though embattled we are; but a call to bear
the burden of a long twilight struggle, year
in and year out, “rejoicing in hope, patient
in tribulation,” a struggle against the
common enemies of many tyranny,
poverty, disease, and war itself.
Can we forge against these enemies
a grand and global alliance, North and
South, East and West, that can assure a
more fruitful life for all mankind? Will you
join me in this historic effort?
In the long history of the world, only
a few generations have been granted the
role of defending freedoms in its hour of
maximum danger. I do not shrink
responsibility; I welcome it. I do not believe
that any of us would exchange places with
any other people with any other people or
any other generation. The energy, the faith,
the devotions which we bring to this
endeavor will light our country and all who
serve it, and the glow from that fire can
truly light the world.
And so, my fellow Americans, ask
not what your country can do for you; ask
what you can do for your country.
My Fellow citizens of the world, ask
not what America will do for you, but what
together we can do for the freedom of man.

humble beginnings. Elvis Aaron Presley was
born on January 8, 1935 in Tupelo,
Mississippi. He first sang in a church anf
taught himself to play the guitar, but he
never learned to read music. By 1953, he
had moved to Memphis, Tennessee,
graduated from high school. And enrolled in
night school to become an electrician. That
year, at Sun Records, Presley recorded a
personal record for his mother, a song that
was heard by the company’s president. As a
result of the president’s recognition
Presley’s first record “That’s All Right
Mama,” was out in 1954.
He toured the South, and in 1955 five of
his record were released simultaneously.
His first national television appearance was
that year of Jackie Gleason’s “The Stage
Show.” But Presley became known for his
appearance on “The Ed Sullivan Show,”
where young singer gyrated as he sang
“rock n’ roll” music. During the live
television performance, Presley wad
photographed only from the waist up
because his motions were considered
obscene.
“Elvis the Pelvis” began his film
career in 1956 with LOVE ME TENDER and
signed a long-term film contract. The movie
critics were not always kind, but teenagers
flocked to Presley’s films. Within a few
short years, Presley had established a
career that would span twenty-five years of
ups and down and make him one of the
most popular entertainers in history. Long

they appear in films
B. there has always been obscenity on
television

important as hard work
D. celebrities are usually more
famous after their death
154. The last sentence reveals that the
author’s attitude toward Presley
is one of
A. indifference C. disbelief
B. admiration D. disgust
155. The statement that ”success often
comes to those with humble beginnings”
would apply best to which of the following
figures?

begin
Green oily teeth to chatter and
munch the cud.
Monster, crawling the carpets of the
world,
Still send from underground against your
blades
The roots of things battalions greens and
curled
And tender, that will match your
blades with blades
Till the revolted throats shall
strangle on
The tickle of their dead, till straws
shall break
Crankshafts like camels, and the sun go
down
On dinosaurs in swamps. And night
attack
Follows and by the time the Sabbath dawns
All armored beasts are eaten by their lawns.

Situation 5 – Ang sumusunod ay isang
talumpati na may pamagat na SA
KABATAAN na isinulat ni Onofre
Pagsanghan
Isa sa mga salitang napag-aralan
natin sa wikang Pilipino ay salitang
NABANSOT. Kapag ang isang bagay daw ay
dapat pang lumaki ngunit ito’y tumigil na sa
paglaki, ang bagay na ito raw ay
NABANSOT. Marami raw uri
ngpagkabansot ngunit ang pinakamalungkot
na uri raw ay ang ng isipan, ng puso at ng
diwa.
Ang panahon ng kabataan ay
panahon ng pagklaki, ngunit ang ating
paglaki ay kailangang paglaki at pag-unlad
ng ating buong katauhan. Hindi lamang ng
atinmg sukat at timbang. Kung ga-poste
man ang ating at ga-pison man angating
bigat ngunit kung ang pag-iisip namat nati’y
ga-kulisap lamang kay pangit na
kabansutan. Kung tumangkad man tayong
tangkad-kawayan at bumilog man tayong
bilog-tapayan, ngunit kung tayo nama’y
tulad ni “bondying” ay di pagkatiwalaan
anong laking kakulangan. Kung
magkakatawan tayong katawang “Tarza” at
mapatalas ang ating isipang sintalas ng kay
Rizal, ngunit kung ang ating kalooban
nama’y itim na duwende ng kasamaan
anong kapinsalaan para sa kinabukasan.
Kinabukasan, kabataan, tayo raw
ang pag-asa ng inang Bayan. Tayo raw ang
maghahatid sa kanya sa lagnit ng kaganaan
at karangalan o hihila sa kanya sa putik ng
kahirapan at kahihiyan. Ang panahon ng
pagkilos ay ngayon, hindi bukas, hindi sa
isang taon. Araw-araw ay tumatawid
tayong palangit o bumabaluktod tayong
paputik. Tamang-tama ang sabi ng ating
mga ninunong kung ano raw ang
kinamihasnan ay siyang pagkakatandaan.
Huwag nating akalaing makapagpapabaya
tayo ng ating pag-aaral ngayon at sa araw
ng bukas ay bigla tayong maging mga
dalubhasang magpapaunlad sa bayan.
Huwag nating akalaing makapaglulublob
tayo ngayon sa kalaswaan at kahalayan at
sa mahiwagang araw ng bukas bigla tayong
magiging ulirang mga magulang.
Kabataan, tunay na pag-ibig sa
bayan, ang tunay na nasyonalismo, ay wala
sa tamis ng pagnarap wala rin sa pagpag ng
dila. Ang tunay na pag-ibig ay nasa pawis
ng gawa.
