PART II ESSAY (IN TWO PARAGRAPHS EACH)

 1. ANG HINDI MARUNONG (UMINGON SA PINANGALINGAN AY HINDI MAKAKARATING SA
KANYANG DARURUONAN.

•What refers to a person who doesn't know how to look back to where they came from is, in
my opinion, who doesn't know how to show gratitude, just like when you help someone,
after you help them, they won't show gratitude.
In another way it is understood differently like you helped him and he didn't thank you
and in other countries they are like that but here in the Philippines if you don't say thank you
you will be told that you are ungrateful or you will be looked at ungratefully

2. DO YOU BELIEVE IN EVOLUTION? WHY AND WHY NOT?

•Of course not, never. You’re wrong if you believe in evolution.

Your belief is not required by science. All it asks for are your eyes. Evolution is taking place.
We can see it taking place.
For the same reason that I don’t “believe in the Sun,” I don’t “believe in evolution.” I take
them as true because there is actual proof of them.

3. DO YOU AGREE WITH THE RATIONALE BEHIND THE GIVING OF DOWRY?

• No, since the dowry system dehumanizes women by treating them like exchangeable pieces
of property. A bride's family is required to reimburse the groom's family for the cost of caring
for the bride, which only makes matters worse because the system views them as a burden to
be shared rather than an asset.
