members do not seek help.
One major source of family conflict is within the
area of finances-specifically, the lack of enough
money to pay bills, maintain the mortgage or rent,
buy sufficient food and other necessities and have
any remaining money for recreation, job or career
may contribute to conflict within a family. If a parents

During Reading:
Oral Reading

After Reading
Process the reading text by
asking students the following
questions:
a. What is the major source of
family conflict?

Another cause of family conflict is the inevitable rivalry

that occurs between siblings. Children typically seek their
parents attention and approval, even if this requires tattling on,
or sometimes causing harm to a sibling. Whether a child
expresses jealousy of a sibling, competes with him/her or teases
him/her non-stop, it is destined to cause conflict. Each child
deserves an equal amount of parental love and acceptance, yet
sometimes a parent may favor one child over another. This
merely intensifies the conflict.
While mutual agreement on the subject of child discipline
is crucial, the lack of consensus opens up another potential area
for family conflict. If one parent acts as the disciplinarian, the
other parent typically becomes the consoler to whom the
children turn - this often pits one parent against the other.
Jokes and movies abound regarding conflict with in-laws
(especially mothers-in-law); however, when you actually become
involved in disagreements with your in-laws or extended family,
it is no laughing matter. While it is preferable to respect your
elders-parents and grandparents on both sides equally-this can
prove to be challenging. If relatives routinely interfere in your
familys decisions and lifestyle, conflict frequently results.

What's the Problem? The Four Classic

Conflict Types
Conflict is vital to any story, but it isn't always
between people. Some stories pit the hero against
society, or a natural disaster. Others have the
traditional hero vs villain setup. Let's look at the four
classic story conflict types and how they define the
basic conflict structure.
This is probably the most common type. It's a
character against another character, people vs
people, even if those people are non-human. They're
still a "character" like any other. A wizard wants to
kill the hero and enslave the world. A scientist needs
to find the cure and stop the madman with the virus.
An orphan girl needs to save her sister from bad
men. The person standing in the way of your
protagonist is another person.
This is where the character is at odds

internal. Overcoming a drug problem, dealing
betrayal, etc. The person standing in the way of

Background of Divine Comedy and
Inferno
The Divine Comedy was the poetic
journey of a man struggling to
reconcile himself to a bitter political
exile through the triumph of love.
The Inferno is the first part of Dante
Alighieris
poem,
the
Divine
Comedy, which chronicles Dantes
journey to God, and is made up of
the
Inferno
(Hell),
Purgatorio
(Purgatory), and
Paradiso (Paradise).
The poems are quite short: they
would take about as long to read
the
whole Inferno as it would to read
the detailed canto summaries and
analysis, although they might be
helpful for understanding Dantes
difficult language.
Motive Question

motive question before the text.
Have you ever been to a house of
horrors? Have you seen a horror movie?
What are the things that shocked or
frightened you?

Task 9 MAKING DEFINITIONS (Whole Class)

Introduction:
Ask the students how they define
terms. (How do you usually
define terms or unfamiliar words)

Definitions are a core part of any dictionary. Writing basic

definitions requires skill, practice, and sometimes help.

Discussion:
1. Discuss with the students the
two ways of defining words:
technical
and
operational
definitions.
2. Clarify the difference between
technical
definition
and
operational definition.
A technical definition is a
definition
in
technical
communication
describing
or
explaining technical terminology.
Technical definitions are used to
introduce the vocabulary which
makes
communication
in
a
particular field concise and clearcut.
(For example, the illiac crest from
medical terminology is the top
ridge of the hip bone.)
There are three main types of
technical definitions:
1) Parenthetical definitions;
2) Sentence definitions;
3) Extended definitions
An operational definition is a
demonstration of a process
such as a variable, term, or
object in terms of the specific
process or set of validation tests
used to determine its presence
and quantity.
3. Discuss the guidelines

YOUR DISCOVERY TASK
Task 10 READ TO WRITE!
Read an example of an argumentative essay below.
Have you ever taken a ride in a public transportation with an
aggressive driver? How did you feel? What did you do? Did
you argue with the driver?
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, tailgaiting, 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 tailgaiting 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.
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.

An argumentative essay tries to change the readers mind by
convincing the reader to agree with the writers point of view.
Features of an Argumentative Essay
An argumentative essay attempts to be highly persuasive and
logical. It usually assumes that the reader disagrees with the writer, but

HEALTH AND HEALING AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
Throw out the bottles and boxes of drugs in your house. A new theory suggests that
medicine could be bad for your health, which should at least come as good news to people who
cannot afford to buy expensive medicine. However, it is a blow to the medicine industry, and an
even bigger blow to our confidence in the progress of science. This new theory argues that
healing is at our fingertips: we can be healthy by doing Reiki on a regular basis.

Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it is effective
and scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Reiki, Yoga,
Tai Chi. These waste our time, something which is quite precious in our material world. There is
medicine that can kill our pain, x-rays that show us our fractured bones or MRI that scans our
brain for tumors. We must admit that these methods are very effective in the examples that they
provide. However, there are some every day complaints such as back pains, headaches,
insomnia, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an
Aspirin, or Vermidon, when you cannot sleep, you take Xanax without thinking of the side effects
of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you become addicted to them; you cannot
sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money and become addicted instead of getting
better.
Opponents of alternative healing methods also claim that serious illnesses like cancer
cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the rest of their
lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Reiki make these people healthy again? It is very
unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair because of
chemotherapy, losing weight because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, it is
common knowledge that except for when the cancer is diagnosed at an early stage, drugs also
cannot treat AIDS or cancer. Most of the medicine these patients use are to ease their pain and
their sufferings because of the medical treatment they undergo. Instead of drugs which are
expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energy to overcome the hardships of life,
find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries.
Most of the chronic conditions such as eczema or migraine are known to have causes such as
poor diet and stress. Deep-rooted anger or other strong emotions can contribute to viral infections
as well. Since balancing our emotions and controlling our thoughts are very important for our
well-being, we should definitely start learning Reiki and avoid illnesses before it is too late.
Some people may still maintain that in our material world, everything depends on time. It is
even lacking time that causes much of the stress that leads to the illnesses we mentioned. How
would it be possible to find time to do Reiki to ourselves and the people around us when we
cannot even find time to go to the theater? This is one good thing about Reiki; it does not require
more than 15 minutes of our time. There is no need for changing clothes or special equipment. It
is a wonderfully simple healing art, an effective method of relaxation and stress-relief. Most
important of all, it is less time consuming than medicine if we think of all the time we spend
taking medicine for some complaints and taking some more for the side effects as well.
Having said these, resistance to Reiki would be quite illogical. Reiki is natural and drug-free.
What is more, it is easy to learn by anyone, regardless of age and experience. It can be used
anywhere, anytime. It also enhances physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being and the
benefits last a lifetime. It is definitely high time to get away from the drug boxes we store in our
drug cabinet!
