Look over or read

the following
texts to find the
main idea.
 Just imagine a world without music. What
would you whistle when you walk down the street?
How could you have a basketball game without a
band leading the crowd in a cheer when the home
team sank a basket in the last two seconds of a tied
game?
You could be the most successful doctor in the
world. But if you never turn on the radio, never go
to a concert, never sing in the shower, then you
can’t be a total, fulfilled human being. It’s utterly
impossible.

 Another benefit of being the eldest is
that I have developed many qualities that
have made me a mature individual. Through
experience, I have learned to be responsible,
dependable, and to be earnest as well. For
example, my parents would go out on
weekends and leave my brothers in my care.
They believe that I can take care of my
brothers at home. By putting their trust in
me, my parents have taught me to take full
responsibility.

Karayapan is an old Waray-Waray word which broadly means
"for all" and closely related to the concept of community.
Karayapan Festival is a colorful festival depicting how the
early Guiuan townsfolk enjoyed nature’s bounties, rich
marine life, fertile land, and verdant forest. It is also a
thanksgiving to our Patroness, the Blessed Virgin Mary.
This Festival usually features a street dancing parade by
groups from the primary and secondary schools of Guiuan.
The parade ends at the Town Plaza where the various groups
compete for the trophy and cash prize. Usually, this occurs in
March; however, the schedule was changed to December in
line with the fiesta of the Imaculada Concepcion, the biggest
fiesta of the year. (adapted from Guiuan Municipal

 The folks of Guiuan have local beliefs regarding
pregnancy. If a pregnant woman wants to avoid the
unpleasant symptoms of pregnancy, she should step over her
husband while he is sleeping and all of her symptoms will be
transferred to him. A pregnant woman who eats “twin”
bananas will give birth to twins. To prevent this, she must
split the twin bananas behind her back. After giving birth,
when a baby lies on her stomach for the first time, place a
pencil, paper, and a book under her so that she will be
intelligent. (adapted from Guiuan Municipal Localization and
Heritage Theme Matrix, page 23)
