Activity 4: Keep Me Going!

Most Essential Learning Competency: Identify claims explicitly or implicitly made in a
written text:
a. Claim of fact
b. Claim of policy
c. Claim of value
Directions: True or False: Read each statement and decide whether each statement is true or false. Write
true if the statement is true and write false if it tells otherwise.
__________1. Only implicit information can be gathered by looking at a picture.
__________2. An autobiography about a certain person would be a good way of getting explicit
information.
__________3. One way of thinking about implicit information is to read between the lines.
__________4. The question, “What is the color of Miss Santos’ shirt?” is an example of an implicit
question.
__________5. “How many tables and chairs are there in room 201?” is an example of an explicit
question.
__________6. Explicit claim confuses the readers as this does not define the subject.
__________7. The meaning of an explicit information is not clearly understood.
__________8. Implicit claims are suggested statements that can be understood without
being directly expressed.
__________9. When subjects, objects, or other animated objects are indirectly described by the writer in a
story, then they are being implicitly introduced.
__________10. It is easier to understand an explicit information than an implicit one.
