Reading and Writing Skills (ILAP)
Dear All:
We believe in the power of educational tools to expand the educational horizon and access to
the community. Our goal is to extirpate the educational barricade by providing teachers and
learners the means to teach and learn amid distance education and learning. This learning tool
gives a leeway for learners to freely learn at their own pace while meeting the 21 st century
skills. By leveraging our learning materials and resources, everyone will have the free access
to EDUCATION that is for all (EFA).
Rest assured that all the contents and delivery are best given in parts.
“Our ability to think is not exactly useful, if we cannot translate these masterful thoughts into
speech and writing.”

Aggressive Driving Should Be Avoided
Aggressive driving is a phenomenon, which has only recently got the public
worried. The National Highway Traffic Safety Council (NHTSC) defines aggressive driving
as the “operation of a motor vehicle in a manner that endangers or is likely to endanger persons
or property.” Actions such as running red lights, improper passing, overtaking on the left,
improper lane change, failing to yield, improper turns, running stop signs, tailgating, careless
driving, and speeding are examples of aggressive driving. Such actions are dangerous to other
road users. Aggressive driving should be avoided because it causes crashes, injuries and
fatalities.
The first reason why aggressive driving should be avoided is it causes crashes.
According to NHTSC, between 78 percent (excessive speed) and 100 percent (improper
passing) of the cases of aggressive driving resulted in traffic crashes and 96 percent of the
drivers cited for “following too closely” or tailgating caused crashes as a result of their
aggressive driving. Moreover, “running red light,” “improper passing,” and “overtaking on the
left” topped other categories of aggressive driving in contributing to traffic crashes.
Another reason why aggressive driving should be avoided is it causes injuries. NHTSC states
that the percentages of the injuries caused by aggressive driving are, in almost all categories of
aggressive driving, above 100 percent.
Aggressive driving also causes fatalities. “Overtaking on the left” appears to be the
most important contributing factor in traffic fatalities as it relates to aggressive driving.
“Improper lane change,” “running stop sign,” and “running red light” rank second through four
in terms of their contribution to traffic fatalities.
1|P age
The above evidence shows that aggressive driving causes crash injuries and fatalities. Hence,
aggressive driving should be avoided. Since the opening on the North-South Highway, the
number of kilometers of roads in the country has increased by one percent while the number of
vehicle miles driven has increased by 35 percent. More cars and more drivers are also on the
road leading to more aggressive drivers.

You might be wondering why we have let you read the selection and asked you provoking
questions. The reason is that, the text you have read shows one of the examples of patterns of
development in writing. This is an Argumentative/Persuasive text. We believe that this is not
new to you as you have learned this in the lower years of your study. However in this module,
you will be refreshed with the characteristics of different patterns of development in writing.

Now, it’s time for you to learn it one-by-one.
Narration: A story that is written to explain what, when, and who. It reveals what a
reader should learn. Narration paragraphs are usually written in chronological order.
It should make a clear point: it should bring to life a moral, lesson, or idea.
While it is true a narrative is a story, there is more in the telling of the story. The narrative,
or story, needs to make the reader feel involved, teach a lesson, help get an idea across, or feel
emotionally about it. The narrative needs to explain who is in the story, tell what is happening,
and when it happened. The topic sentence needs to be clear so the reader knows they are going
to learn something from the story. The story itself is written in time, or chronological order, as
the events occurred.~ Mary M.
Common Transitional expressions used in a narrative paragraph are after, finally, soon, as
(soon as), later, then, before, meanwhile, upon, during, next, when, first, now, and while.
A good way to plan for a well-developed paragraph is to write out a topic sentence, then write
events in chronological order and then write a conclusion. This is a good way to make sure you
stay on topic and that all the events are in the correct order.
Example:
My Most Embarrassing Moment
The most embarrassing moment of my sophomore year was how I earned my nick
name, Crash. It all started right after school when I turned on to the busiest street by the school.
First I pulled up right behind this truck at a stop sign. After a second, a fellow older student
told me that I was really close and that I was going to hit the truck in front of me. At the moment
I was trying to tell the kid that I was giving a ride to to get back in the car because he was
hanging out the window. Since I was distracted, I thought the long line of traffic had started to
move, but it hadn’t. In the blink of an eye I hit the back of the truck in front of me. The
devastation sunk in. I was so worried that I damaged the truck, but all that I did was scratch his
bumper. Lucky for him! Then it came time to look at my car. My car was ruined. The hood
was buckled, the front end was pushed back, and my headlights were broken. Humiliated and
scared, I still had to drive my totaled care home. During School that year, I never did hear the
end of what had happened that day.
Transitional Expressions:
Next to, near, close, far, up, down, between, above, below, left, right, center, toward,
away.- All of these are used when writing a descriptive paragraph.
An example: I think the way a person dresses can really explain who they are and
what they are about.
Example:
The Hot Fudge Sundae
In front of me on the table sat a beautiful pure white bowl, simplistic in design, hiding
a decadent surprise inside. In the bowl was hidden something that was not so pure, however,
the irresistible indulgence was worth every calorie that I knew it contained. As I looked inside
I saw on the bottom of the bowl a hot, tender brownie loaded with macadamia nuts. I knew
from past experience that the nuts had a creamy and smooth texture, almost like white
chocolate. On top of the brownie were two firmly packed scoops of ice cream, laying side by
side, each one a different flavor. The scoop on the right was a rich vanilla, flecked with dark
specks of vanilla bean. The scoop on the left was a dark, smooth, bittersweet chocolate. The
scoops were just starting to melt tiny rivers of melted cream down the sides of the hot brownie,
pooling on the bottom of the pure white bowl. These scoops of ice cream were draped with a
sumptuous, rich, hot fudge sauce. Topping the luscious sauce was an ample dollop of whipped
cream that was in perfect contrast to the dense, almost too rich dessert below. The whipped
cream was topped with a shower of chocolate sprinkles and finely chopped walnuts. What
finally completed this wonderful creation was a perfect maraschino cherry, its red juice sending
tiny streams down the whole mountain of dessert delight. The contrast of colors, textures and
flavors in this dessert appealed to every part of my senses. I could not wait to eat it.

Synonym is explaining the term by using the words that mean the same thing.
EXAMPLE: To procrastinate is to slack.
Negation means that the write first says something is not, and then says what it is.
EXAMPLE: A snow cone is not an ice cream cone, but rather a shredded ice and syrup
treat.
Example:
E-Mail
E-mail is not something you can hold in your hand, send in the mail, and a stamp is not
needed to send it. E-mail is simply mail put into digital form and sent to its recipient through
the Internet. Because of the technological advances of societ, mail has been turned into
something computer made that can be sent anyplace, anytime, as long as there is an Internet
connection. For instance, a person does not have to wait until the post office is open to send an
important letter or message, all they have to do is simply get on to the Internet and come up
with a draft and hit the send button. Also the person looking to send the mail does not have to
pay for the sometimes expensive postage price, but rather the monthly cost of Internet access.
Because of the development of E-mail, people can send messages without hassle and in a timely
fashion. E-mail also helps businesses communicate throughout their company simply with the
push of a button. As time goes on, e-mail will advance while while physical mailing will
slowing be turned into something of the past.

The same information can be classified into more than one category, but the
classification paragraph sticks to one basis of classification. The topic sentence has two parts:
the topic, and the basis of classification, which is the controlling idea; it controls how the writer
approaches the subject.
Transitional expressions:
• can be divided
• can be classified
Example:
Types of Friends
Friends can be classified according to their honesty, loyalty, the type that fits you into their
schedule, or the type that finds time for you when they need something. An honest friend tells
you the truth even if it’s not always what you want to hear. In the long run, that honest friend
may have saved you from embarrassment or possibly rejection. They give you constructive
criticism overall. The loyal friend is the type of friend that will be there for you through the
thick and the thin. They don’t care how good or bad you may look one day; they are sensitive
to your feelings, they respect you and the other people in your life, and most of all they will
never let you down when times are hard. They may be what you call a best friend. The third
group, the person that fits you into their schedule, is the type of person that is always on the
go. They barely have time for themselves let alone another person. More than likely they will
not be there for you when you need them most, because they are so wrapped up in their busy,
hectic life. Then you have the self-absorbent type of “friend” that finds time for you only when
they need something. This type of person isn’t what you would call a friend. This person may
always be extremely nice to you because they know that if are nice to you then they will more
than likely get what they want. They will call you every once in awhile when it is almost time
for them to use that person again. It may be for a ride to work, home, or they just want
somebody to hangout with because they have no other friends. If the person that is being used
is smart they will eventually realize that they are getting used and will stop being there for that
person.

A cause is a reason for, or events leading up to. An effect is the results of a cause or
causes. Having the skill to think in the mode of cause and effect is a key to victory in daily
situations.
A cause and effect paragraph analyzes the causes or effects of a certain situation.
1. Do not oversimplify
2. Do not confuse time order with causation
3. Do not confuse causes and effects
Example:
Since my daughter has been in daycare she has become better at a few different things. To start
off, her vocabulary is much larger and more developed. Before she started daycare, my
daughter had a few select words that she would say like; momma, dada, Cocoa (one of the
puppies), and some other simple words. Now she tries to repeat everything that is said. Another
result of her being in daycare is that she has the ability to interact with other children better. In
the past, she was only around one child. Now she is around about six to eight kids, and she has
learned to share her toys and to play in a group with the other children. Her learning to share
has carried over at home when she tells her daddy or me that it’s his turn or mommy’s turn
when putting her socks on. A third outcome of her being in daycare is the fact that she is
becoming more self-reliant. Before daycare, she wouldn’t try very hard to help me with getting
dressed, but now she wants to try to do it all on her own. She puts her pull ups on and tries to
pull on her shirts and pants herself. Socks still go on upside down, but at least her shoes go on
the correct feet I am really glad that I decided to put her in a daycare, for the benefits have been
great.

Problem-solution paragraph presents a problem and describes two or more possible solutions
to that problem.
Example:
Energy Sources: A Dilemma of the Twenty-First Century
On most part, energy is created by burning fossil fuels -- coal, natural gas and oil. The problem
with this is that these resources are finite. At the current rate of use, it is expected that the world will
run out of fossil fuels in thirty to forty years to come. As a result, it will no longer be possible to generate
power to operate factories and vehicles or to light and heat houses. This world-wide problem can be
resolved through the implementation of two possible solutions. The first solution is to improve
conservation efforts. In order to do this, governments can try to raise public awareness, discourage over-
consumption and encourage recycling. For example, they can encourage the installation of high-
efficiency light bulbs in homes and offices. They can inform the public of the amount of energy saved
by simply turning off lights that are not being used or by using public transport more and cars less. They
can also pass laws mandating the recycling of whatever possible. Improvements in conservation will
surely extend the life of current fuels but they are not complete answers to what will happen when fossil
fuels eventually run out. The second and better solution, therefore, is to use alternative sources of energy
to meet future needs. The current leading alternatives to fossil fuels are solar energy and fusion, which
is the union of atomic nuclei to form heavier nuclei. Solar energy is directly obtained from the sun so it
is easily accessible and pollution-free. It can be used both to heat water and buildings and to generate
electricity but mostly in countries that have ample sunlight. Fusion, on the other hand, will make it
possible for nuclear power plants to generate enormous amounts of energy in order to meet the energy
needs of the planet indefinitely. In addition, despite public concern about safety and risk of
contamination, fusion is a safe and clean source of energy as modern power plants take strict safety
measures to prevent potential nuclear disasters and leaks. In conclusion, in order to have sufficient
energy for the next century, it will be necessary to develop and encourage the use of alternative energy
sources worldwide.

ACTIVITY 4 (Day 4)
Read and analyze the selection below, and answer the following questions that follow.
Shoppers
Shoppers in Wal-Mart can be classified according to the attitudes that they display. There are
many subcategories, but the observant people-watcher can detect five general types. They are:
the purposeful shopper, the leisurely shopper, the hypnotized shopper, the bored shopper, and
the angry shopper. The purposeful shopper is one who is intent and organized. They are short
on time. They stride in the store purposefully, and they go directly to the appropriate aisle(s).
They get what they need, and they get out of the store quickly. The leisurely shopper enjoys
shopping, and strolls along deriving pleasure from viewing all the different objects that can be
purchased and displayed in their homes and offices. It is somewhat of a pastime for them. The
hypnotized shopper wears a dazed expression on his or her face. They are dazzled by the bright
lights, and the sheer cubic footage of the massive box store. The endless array of goods leeches
their will and intent the moment they enter the store. They will walk away from the store with
far more than they intended. The bored shopper is usually brought into the store slightly against
their will. Men and children fall into this category. The only exception to this group is if the
men or children are shopping for their toys; then they can be pleasant until they get what they
want. The last category is the angry shopper. The majority of this group was previously in one
of the other groups listed above, but for some reason their mood swiftly deteriorated. They can
be harassed wives, or husbands. They can be a child throwing a temper tantrum, or the parents
reacting to such a tantrum. The minority are just the plain angry, rude people. It is just best to
avoid eye contact with this group lest their anger be turned on you. All of the above shoppers
are interesting to watch, and all types are welcome to spend their money in “Wally’s World.”
