Text:
Exercise is crucial in our lives. Doctors
recommend we exercise at least two times a
week. Exercise does not necessarily need to be
done in the gym; it can consist of an outdoor
walk or ride a bike. It not only controls weight,
but it combats many health conditions and
diseases. Another added benefit of exercise is its
mood boosting qualities.
Write your answer in your English notebook.
Answer What I Can Do-Activity 5 on page 9 of
your module.
General statement is
the main point and
what the text is all
about.
Supporting details are
ideas that reinforce the
main idea.
It can usually be seen in
the first or last sentence
but not all the time.
It will help you to easily
comprehend the main
message of the text.
