General Education - drill 5 Part 1
- November 29, 2018
Direction: Choose the answer for each item. On the Answer Sheet provided, shade the
CHOICE, which corresponds to your answer.
A Study made a number of years ago said the more education a man has, the
less likely he is to be an inventor. Now, the reason for that is quite simple. From the time
the boy or girl starts in school, he or she is examined three or four times a year, and of
course, it is very, very disastrous if he/she fails. An inventor fails all the time and it is
triumph if he succeeds once. Consequently, if education is an inhibition to invention, it is
due entirely to the form by which we rate things and not because of any intellectual
differential.
I can take any group of young people any place, and teach them to be inventors, if I can
get them to throw off the hazard of being afraid to fail. You fail because your ideas are
not right. You should not be afraid to fail, but you should learn to fail intelligently. By that
I mean, when you fail, find out why you failed, and each time you fail it will bring you
nearer to the goal.

Music Can Heal Mental Wounds but Only in the Right Hands
By Eva DorotheeSchmid
1 Human beings have known about the healing properties of music since
Biblical times –according to the Old Testament for example David soother King Saul’s
aching brow by reaching for his harp.
2 There are also many references to the healing potential of music in texts left
behind by the ancient Greeks.
3 The same properties are not put to good use in the modern filed of music
therapy. Music therapy is psychotherapeutic procedure which does not compete with
traditional medicine but rather tries to complement it.
4 Music arouses emotion, soothes, comforts and can lead to changes in
behavior. It can also encourage the healing process, increase a person’s ability to
tolerate pain and help them overcome their fears.
5 All this can result in changes in the body’s chemistry
6 Studies show that the right sort of music cause the body to release an
increased amount of so-called endorphins with the results that the person becomes
less sensitive to pain and feels much better.

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.

Begins the morning. Over this neighborhood
Rises the keening, petulant voice, begin
Green oily teeth to chatter and munch the cud.

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.
