ORGANICALLY SPEAKING Organic – free from

chemical injections or additives, such as antibiotics or hormones.

WHERE WE ARE NOW

When it comes to food and beverages these days, the word “organic” has blanketed the entire health
and fitness industry. As the above definition states, organic food and drink is free of antibiotics,
hormones and pesticides. So many people who want to stay away from these chemicals have gone
to a diet consisting mostly or exclusively of organic items. Consuming foods in this state is seen to
be as close to natural as it gets, which makes it highly sought after when trying to get and stay
healthy.
The interesting thing about consuming organic foods is that it has somehow become “the Holy
Grail” for so many. They figure that if they consume a diet of exclusively or mostly organic items,
 then they are bound to be more healthy and fit. The term organic simply points out the fact that the
item is in its most natural state possible before you consume it.

It doesn’t account for the amount of calories, fats or anything else that may be detrimental to your
quest for creating the best you. Just because something is organic doesn’t mean it is good for you –
I’d rather have you eat a non-organic apple over a bag of organic potato chips any day!

THE TRUTH IS IN THE PUDDING

And that’s just it: so many people fail to realize that there are so many organic food items that are
just as bad or even worse for you than those that are not organic. The word organic in and of itself
does not make a good or beverage option healthy. You still need to investigate each item, organic
or not, to make sure that what you are consuming is in line with your current diet and goals. I love
the idea of consuming as many naturally grown products as possible, but it has to be done with
some level of investigation.

Is organic food better for you than non-organic? That’s the word on the street. But, when it comes
to making consistently healthy choices just remember that fruit and veggies are always a better
option than potato chips or cookies – even if the chips and cookies are organic!

D. Abstraction (25 minutes)

Patterns of Development: Definition
A definition explains what a term means. When you want your readers to know exactly how you are
using a certain term or an unfamiliar concept, you use definition.

Types of Definition
1. Formal Definition. The definitions provided in dictionaries are examples of formal definition,
which generally include three elements:
a) term, the word being defined;
b) class, which refers to the (big) group to which the term belongs; and
c) Differentiating features, the word or phrase that makes it different with the others from the
same class.
 Examples of Formal Definition:
a) Scientific writing is a form of writing that is based on actual and relevant studies.) (The
term is “scientific writing” the class is “writing” and the differentiating features is that is
based on actual and relevant studies.)

b) Science is the field of study which attempts to describe and understand the nature of the
universe in whole or part.
(The term is “science” The class is “field of study”. And the differentiating features is that
“attempts to describe and understand the nature of the universe in whole or part.”)

2. Informal Definition. The three common informal definitions are operational definitions,
synonyms, and connotations.
a) Operational Definitions give the meaning of an abstract word for one particular time and
place.
Example: An excellent score when you get more than 95% in the test.

b) Synonyms, or words that mean the same as another word.

Example: a student’s intelligence (or mental capacity) is measured by using intelligent
quotient (IQ) test. Intelligence is defined by providing its synonym on intellectual ability.

c) Denotation and Connotation. Denotation is the exact meaning of the word.

Example: Kindness is the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate.

d) Connotation is an idea or meaning suggested by or associated with a word or thing Example:

The autumn leaves were falling in the courtyard. (The word “autumn” means something
coming to an end.)

Note: In an informal definition, the writer uses known words or examples to explain an
unknown term. These definitions maybe Synonyms or Antonyms introduced by or, in other
words, or like. For example, the word, "freedom" Formal Definition: Freedom is the power or
right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint. Informal Definition:
Freedom, also referred to as liberty or independence, is a state people reach when they are
free to think and do whatever they please

3. Definition Paragraph. A definition paragraph is a definition sentence which is extended into a

paragraph by adding meanings, descriptions, narrations and other kinds of paragraph
development to make clear the term being defined. The paragraph starts with a definition
sentence which is used as the topic sentence. Then, each group/class in the definition is
developed into supporting sentences and concluding statement.

E. Application
