LESSON 4: LOVING IS GIVING
TEXT: THE WEDDING DANCE BY AMADOR DAGUIO
GRAMMAR FOCUS: NOUN COMPLEMENTS: VERB COMPLEMENTS

NAME:__________________________________
A verb complement is the arrangement of one verb as the object of another verb. This happens three
ways in English:
A. With infinitives. Underline the infinitives in the following sentences.
1. She asked him to leave.
2. I wanted to leave.
3. I helped him to leave.
4. I stopped for the child to cross the street.
B. With gerunds. Circle the gerund in the following sentences.
5. Awiyao considered leaving his skillful wife.
6. Lumnay regretted her pleading with her husband .
7. They decided on leaving and freeing each other.
C. With noun clauses. Box the noun clauses in the following sentences.
8. Awiyao insisted that he would leave for Malidumay.
9. Lumnay wondered why he was asking to marry another woman.
10. Lumnay acknowledged that she couldn’t give Awiyao a son.
11. She didn’t know that her husband had chosen to be influenced by the tribe’s belief.
12. She decided that she would let go of Awiyao for the sake of her love for him.
A gerund is a verb in its ing (present participle) form that functions as a noun that names an activity
rather than a person or thing. Any action verb can be made into a gerund.
An infinitive is a verb form that acts as other parts of speech in a sentence. It is formed with to + base
form of the verb. Ex: to buy, to work.
Choose the correct gerund or infinitive from the parenthesis at the end of the sentence.
13. Robert can’t stand _________ on trains. (riding/ to ride)
14. Nathaniel enjoys _________ people out to dinner. (inviting / to invite)
15. In the old days, gentlemen challenged their rivals _______. (fighting / to fight)

LESSON 5: CREATING CHANCES
TEXT: THE BREAD OF SALT
FOCUS: FIGURES OF SPEECH
1. IDENTIFY WHAT FIGURE OF SPEECH IS BEING DESCRIBED. CHOOSE FROM THE BOX

NAME:__________________________________
_________1. an indirect comparison of two different things using the words like /as
_________2. direct comparison of different things
_________3. human qualities are given or attributed to objects

_________5. putting together contradictory words
_________6. the use of a part to represent a whole
__________7. an idea is represented in a lesser degree
__________8 use of words that suggest the opposite meaning
__________9. sound produced by the word as its meaning
__________10. sound produced by repetition of initial consonant
PERFORMACE: Write a short paragraph with a title; “FIRST IMPRESSIONS LAST”
ALTERNATIVE OUTPUT: Search a review of the given story and then comment whether you agree or not.
“
An example is given below:
The story concerns the character of a fourteen-year-old boy, a dynamic protagonist, who is filled with dreams and
fantasies driven by his admiration for a girl named Aida. Throughout the whole passage, he thinks of Aida every time,
including the time when he does his morning ritual (more like a chore) of buying fresh from the oven pan de sal which
he calls bread of salt. This infatuation ends in a dreadful instance of embarrassment when he is caught by Aida,
slipping some sweets, which “appeared like whole egg yolks that had been dipped in honey and peppermint”, under
his shirt. But what does it imply about the character’s conclusion that he is not suited for Aida when it is merely a one-
sided conjecture? What role does the bread of salt play in the dissection of the text? What is the deeper context of
the story? To answer the former queries, theme and point of view (and its interpretation using the character’s
background) of the story are explored. Through the tone of writing, the protagonist’s inner viewpoint and emotions are
also analyzed to make sense of the positioning of the thematic opposition in the story’s meaning.

GRAMMAR FOCUS: DIRECT AND INDIRECT OBJECT
There are two types of objects: direct and indirect objects:
Direct object
A direct object answers the question "what?" or "whom?"
Examples:
• Danilo painted the tomb → the tomb is the direct object of the verb painted. ( What did Danilo
paint?)
• Jose invited Maura to the party → Maura is the direct object of the verb invited. (Whom did
he invite?)
Indirect Object
An indirect object answers the question "to whom?", "for whom?", "for what?"...
An indirect object is the recipient of the direct object, or an otherwise affected participant in the
event. There must be a direct object for an indirect object to be placed in a sentence. In other
words an indirect object cannot exist without a direct object.
Examples:
• They sent him a postcard - him is the indirect object of the verb sent. (To whom did they send a
postcard?)
• He bought his son a bike - his son is the indirect object of the verb bought. (For whom did he
buy a bike?)
•
1. Decide whether the words in bold are subjects, direct objects or indirect objects
