LET US STUDY

These are the types of text that may help you in getting
information which you may use in everyday conversations and exchanges.

Speech is a form of communication in spoken

language, made by a speaker before an
audience for a given purpose.

News report explains a real-life event: it presents a lot

of information but does not use a lot of words.

Panel discussion is a situation in which group of

people are gathered together to discuss an issue,
often to provide feedback on something, to
brainstorm solutions to a problem or to discuss
an issue of public concern in front of an audience.

Informative Speech is one that intends to educate

the audience on a particular topic.

the text.

B. Directions: Gordon and Hobart are using the information they get from a

and make a similar one based on the news report below. Do this on your
paper.

Title: Discussing the Economy

(Source: American English-More Dialogs for Everyday Use)

Gordon: The economic news doesn’t look good, does it?

Hobart: Not according to the newspaper yesterday. I saw a similar report

last night on TV.

Gordon: I saw that, too. The analysis seemed to be quite realistic.

Hobart: I hope they’re wrong. We really need to get the rising price structure
under control.

Gordon: Well, costs seem to be rising in so many categories that it appears

to defeat any efforts at stabilization.

7
Hobart: That’s my feeling, too. Raw material now costs more. Labor is
demanding higher wages and production costs continue to soar.

Gordon: There may be some relief this summer. I understand the price of
some foodstuffs will decrease.

Language Notes • That’s my feeling, too = That’s my opinion, too @ soar =

rise beyond what is common and ordinary

Duterte allows 'limited' face-to-face classes

in low-risk areas
Bonz Magsambol
President Rodrigo Duterte has allowed "limited" face-to-face classes in low-
risk areas or those under the modified general community quarantine
(MGCQ), Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said on Tuesday, July 21.
"We're thinking up to January 2021 that we can allow. From August to
December, we can start assessing the school and start inspecting facilities of
school," Education Secretary Leonor Briones said during a pre-recorded
Cabinet meeting with Duterte aired on Tuesday morning.
Briones said not all low-risk areas can resume face-to-face classes – only
those that meet requirements such as adequate facilities. "They have to be
inspected," she said.
Duterte said he is "okay" with Briones' proposal. "I'm with you on this," he
told the education chief.
Briones explained that schools should not only be coordinating with the
Department of Education (DepEd), but with local government units and
health officials as well. She added that stringent health standards must be
followed.
Briones also said that DepEd would take the advice of National Task Force
Chief Implementer Secretary Carlito Galvez Jr and Interior and Local
Government Secretary Eduardo Año seriously to have a "joint inspection."

8
Briones cited the following advantages of face-to-face classes:
 familiarity of students and teachers
 lower administrative cost
 closure of "inequality gaps"
 socialization among students
She also cited the following disadvantages:
 health risks
 costs of maintaining health standards and facilities
Remote islands such as Siquijor, Dinagat Islands, and Siargao were among
the areas requesting the limited "face-to-face" setup. Briones also mentioned
that there were other LGUs requesting, but she didn't identify these.
