LESSON EXEMPLAR in ENGLISH 10

I - LEARNING COMPETENCY: EN10RC - IIa - 11

 Transcode information from linear to nonlinear texts and vice versa.

II - CONTENT/CONCEPT:

As a student, you will definitely encounter a number of visual forms or nonlinear

and linear texts in your textbooks.

The key difference between linear and nonlinear text is their reading path. A
reading path is the path or the way the reader’s take through a text.

In a linear text, a reader can make sense of the text by reading sequentially from
beginning to the end. It’s typically the author of the text who decides the order of the
text, or its reading path. Generally, texts printed on paper are considered as linear texts.
Novels, poems, short stories, letters, educational texts, all those texts we read from the
beginning to the end are linear texts.

However, in a nonlinear text, the reading path is non - sequential. And it is used to
present data which enables the reader to see large quantities of information at a glance.

Hence, the reader can choose his/her own reading path.

Transcoding linear to nonlinear text is fairly straightforward. To transpose

nonlinear to nonlinear text, simply remove the pictures and rewrite if necessary.

WORKSHEET NO.1

4 Cause of Family Conflict

by K. Lee Banks
Page 6 of 13
 Family harmony provides a sense of belonging and a feeling of security unlike many other types
of relationships. When conflict arises, it threatens that security. Whether the disharmony initiates from
within the family unit or from experience a range of negative emotions and consequences. Unresolved
conflict may irreparably damage a marriage and the entire family, if family members do not seek help.

One major source of family conflict is within the area of finances-specifically, the lack of
enough money to pay bills, maintain the mortgage or rent, buy sufficient food and other necessities and
have any remaining money for recreation, job or career may contribute to conflict within a family. If a
parent’s job keeps him/her away from home most of the time , the spouse at home with the children
often feels neglected or overwhelmed. Conversely, if the parent becomes unemployed, this causes its
own form of stress and conflict, as finances dwindle and uncertainty sets in about the future.

Another cause of family conflict is the inevitable rivalry that occurs between siblings. Children
typically seek their parents’ attention and approval, even if this requires tattling on, or sometimes
causing harm to sibling. Whether a child expresses jealousy of a sibling, competes with him/her or
teases him/her non-stop. It is destined to cause conflict. Each child deserves an equal amount of
parental love and acceptance, yet sometimes a parent may favor one child over another. This merely
intensifies the conflict.

While mutual agreement on the subject of child discipline is crucial, the lack of consensus
opens up another potential area for family conflict. If one parent acts as the “disciplinarian”, the other
parent typically becomes the “consoler” to whom the children turn - this often pits one parent against
the other.

Jokes and movies abound regarding conflict with in-laws (especially mothers-in-law); however,
when you actually become involved in disagreements with your in-laws or extended family, it is no
laughing matter. While it is preferable to respect your elders-parents and grandparents on both sides
equally- this can prove to be changing. If relatives routinely interfere in your family’s decisions and
lifestyle, conflict frequently results.
