ii. Analysis
Text aids, also called text features, are visual elements on a page that stand out from the main
text. The reader uses text features to help understand the content. Some examples of text aids are titles,
bold or italic print, diagrams, maps, tables, charts and maps.
Text aids are predominately used in nonfiction text. Text features focus the reader's attention on
specific parts of the text, and help the reader identify important ideas in the reading. Aids in the form of
pictures or graphs give the reader additional information to support that found in the text. Text aids are
also useful for previewing text.
The different forms of writing are often known as text types at school. Factual texts inform,
instruct or persuade by giving facts and information. Literary texts entertain or elicit an emotional
response by using language to create mental images. It is a way of classifying and defining different types
of language interaction both spoken and written. It also refers to the purpose of a text and the way it is
written. Narrative, persuasive, descriptive, explanation, exposition, information reports, recounts,
procedures and poetry are some common types of text.

Nick Vujicic - is an Australian motivational speaker with a rare congenital disorder called
Tetra-Amelia Syndrome. He was born with an absence of four limbs, which inspired him to found a non-
profit organization called “Life Without Limbs” at the age of 17.
“It's a lie to think you're not good enough. It's a lie to think you're not worth anything.” –Nick Vujicic
Understanding a text depends upon how the events are being connected with one
another. Its logical arrangement contributes a lot to its totality as what a narrative develops its plot. It is
just like our personal challenges in life which help us develop the totality being a person.

ii. Analysis
A myth is a story that can sometimes be rooted in historical fact, but more often deals with
supernatural beings, gods, demigods, and the explanation of natural phenomenon. Stories that explain
religious beliefs are often myths; they explain the cultural and religious views of a society. Many myths
were, at one time or another, believed to be true, but one defining characteristic of a myth is that there is
no way to verify the claims made within it. “Daedalus and Icarus” is a sample of myth. It discusses
adventures and mistakes of heroes or characters.
Like other stories, myth also observes the specific elements which help in the development of
the text. Characterization, Setting, Plot, Theme, Style, Tone and Point of view are the significant elements
of a myth.

THE GORGON’S HEAD Translated by: Anne Terry White
Theme: Finding Yourself and Resolving Conflicts
Moral Lesson: Ancient Greeks believed in fate and that people cannot avoid their fate. God will
punish evil people and reward those who are courageous and virtuous.
LINES FROM THE CHARACTERS
KING ACRICIUS - “I will evade my fate. I will shut Danae up away from the sight of men
in a house of bronze all sunk underground.”
KING POLYDECTES - “The time has come, Perseus, for you to win glory for yourself in
some bold adventure.” “It would be a good idea for you to cut off the Medusa’s head. That
would bring you to the greatest fame.”
HERMES - “Perseus, I approved the high adventure you have in mind. But you must be
properly equipped for it.”
ATHENE - “Of what use will be your sword, my brother,” she said to Hermes, “When none
may look the Gorgons and live?”
PERSEUS - “Lovely maiden, you should not wear such chains as these,” he stammered
out, “but rather those which bind the hearts of lovers. I pray, you, tell me your name and
why you are bound like this.”
ANDROMEDA - “It is her beauty that has chained me here for the gods are jealous, and
in nothing may we mortal surpass them. The sea god has sent a serpent to prey upon our
people, and my death alone can appease his anger. So, says the oracle.”
KING CEPHEUS - “Indeed, indeed, valorous youth, she shall be yours! Only save her
from the monster, and you shall have our Kingdom as well as our daughter.”

promised bride.”

ii. Analysis
Implicit Signal (non-verbal) - not directly stated; but understood in what it is expressed.
Automatically provides appropriate handshaking signals and logic for each method of an interface. Implicit
is implied, rather than directly stated. A facial expression can be an implicit signal. But, any hint you give
indirectly is an implicit signal.
Example: wink, handshake, hand waving, any body movement, ready signals
Explicit Signal (verbal) - are clear and direct. Basically anything someone tells you in clear
language is explicit.
Example: Traffic light
Verbal Signal - refers to the words we use to communicate a message
face-to-face, telephone, radio or television and other media
Examples: Understood spoken words, as well as ensuring that the enunciation, stress and tone of voice
with which the words are expressed is appropriate meeting &workshops
Nonverbal Signal - communicate emotion, establish relationships among members,
supplement and clarify verbal expressions, substitute for words, and regulate the flow of talk.
Examples: appearance; spatial relations, seating arrangements, and distances; eye contact; facial
expressions; body movements and gestures; vocal cues; time; and touch.
