ANALYSIS!
Read the article,
“That Little
Island”. Answer
the questions
that follow.
 That Little Island
Fishermen, soldiers, residents, and foreigners, all of them have story to tell about
Scarborough Shoal. What makes this small ring of reefs a piece of last slice of cake?
Philippines claims this as its territory because of its location. It lies about 230 kilo
meters from the Philippines while China has 650 kilometers from its nearest island. It
is abundant in marine life, so many fishermen from three claiming countries benefit
on it. The island is perfect for a security outpost because it has served as place for
Philippine military activities and command post for defense since then. Later on,
Chinese found out that this is also the best place for their defense as shown in their
new built outpost with jetfighters and missiles. These three main reasons on claiming
the island ruined the friendship of Philippines and China. When the dispute was
brought to international tribunal and the decision was ignored by China, this behavior
started many other harassments and advancements of Chinese over Filipinos. Thus,
the claim for this piece of island will surely run generation to generation.

LESSON PROPER:
• FACT refers to the something true
or real, which is backed up by
evidence, documentation, etc.
• Fact should be based on
observation or research, should
also represents something that
really happens and not debatable
since the information is true.
• OPINION is what a person
believes or thinks about
something.
• It is your assumption or personal
view, and it is debatable because
opinion is not always true.
• However, one’s views can be
valid depending on the bases and
pragmatics.
• Facts and opinions help us
determine how true a
statement is thus in any kind
of article, facts and opinion
can be used in developing the
paragraph to add details on the
main point.
• Another way of understanding
an article is through
identifying its main idea and
important details about it. It
checks the relationship of the
ideas to the theme or main
point of an article.
• MAIN IDEA is the point of the
paragraph. It is the most important
thought about the topic.
• SUPPORTING DETAILS can
be defined as additional
information that explains, defines,
or proves an idea.
• Using facts and opinions in
developing your main point or
idea establishes strong support.
• If there is strong relationship
between your main point and
details, then facts and opinion
injected are relevant in developing
the paragraph.
• To determine whether the details are truths or
not, you should detect:
1. FALLACIES – ideas which may people
believed to be true which are in fact false
because it is based on incorrect information.
2. FACT – fact stated by the writer is likely to
be true if there is source.
3. OPINION – bases should be valid and
reasonable.
4. BIAS – statements may be given to favor
one’s point.
ABSTRACTION!
• In the paragraph below,
one or more of the
sentences may be
irrelevant.
• Read through the
paragraph and decide
what sentences you would
get rid of.
• Rewrite it after eliminating
irrelevant sentences.
Exercise is good for one’s physical and mental health.
It is proven that aerobic exercise is good for the heart,
which is very important to overall health. I used to run
every day, but now I go to dance classes to get my
aerobic exercise. Strength training is important for
maintaining muscle mass and improving bone density.
Both muscle mass and bone density can decrease as
we age, so improving them through strength training is
important. My grandmother broke a hip last year
because her bones were so fragile. All kinds of exercise
have been shown to relieve depression, anxiety, and
stress.
