9. Time is gold. True, you can buy Gold at shopping malls, jewelry stores, and
pawnshops. Bu t can you buy time? N O. Time is even more valuable than the 6
most expensive gold. You cannot turn back time, even if you had zillions. If you
lost gold, you could always purchase a replacement. Bu t if you lost time, could
you
seek for another time? N O. That is why time is very precious. Every tick-tock
is worth the grandest gold karat m a n has ever bought. (Algien A. Parker)
10.As m u c h as possible, do not just sit there the whole day under the tree waiting for
the mango fruit to fall down into your mouth. You are wasting so m u c h time.
Instead of being like J u a n , think something productive that you c an do even in
little ways s u c h as cleaning the house, helping your younger siblings in their
assignments, and among others. You are never too sure. So wake u p, get up and
work. Remember that Grasshopper, who just played the whole summer, asked
help from little Ant who worked his back to store food for winter. (Algien A. Parker)
11.Mahayag beach is filled with people on weekends. They have the chance to relax
and unwind in this beautiful white beach. You can feel you are in Boracay though
you are just in Tandag. The white sand, the crystal-clear water, the fresh air, and
the wonderful people, all shape your experience in this refreshing beach. Children
play, mothers bond, and fathers rest.
12.Here comes another busy day. People sit on their tables. They open their laptops.
Some work with music while others listen to news simultaneously. Meetings here
and there, attending either virtually or face-to-face. People ask reports from each
other, walking fast and furious. They are as busy as the bees.
13.A hundred years ago there lived a king. He had some beautiful daughters, but
the youngest daughter was the most beautiful. Close by the king’s castle, there
was a great dark forest. And under a n old lime tree in the forest, there was a well.
When the day was warm, the king’s youngest daughter usually went out into the
forest. When she was bored, she took her golden ball and played with it.

14.A beggar found a leather purse that someone had dropped in a market place.
Opening it, he discovered that it contained 100 pieces of gold. Then he heard a
merchant shouted, "A reward! A reward to the one who find my leather purse!"
Being a n honest m a n, the beggar came forward and handed the purse to the
merchant saying, "Here is your purse. Will you keep your word to give a reward
now?" "Reward?" scoffed the merchant greedily counting the amount of gold. "The
purse I dropped had 200 pieces of gold in it. Youve already stolen more than the
reward I’ll give to you.! G o away or I’ll tell you to the police." (The Purse of Gold)
15.There was a young boy named Fred. He was s u c h a happy boy because he loved
his mom and dad. One day, his mom and dad told him they would take him
fishing. He was so excited. They fished all day and had the best time!

It is time for you to know the lesson through the following activities!
Activity 1
Get ready for a discussion with the following questions:
1. Have you given a speech in front of a class before? How did you
prepare for your speech? Enumerate the steps on how you prepared for
it.
.
What were your preparations before you delivered your speech in front of
your classmates? List them down below.
8
2. What do you think are the qualities of a good speaker? C a n you give at least
three?
Let u s have a brief discussion of the lesson. The following points will help you
discover and understand new concepts and skills in the delivery of a self-composed
speech.
What is speech?
You may refer to all social interactions in which language plays a significant
role as speech events. The interlocutors (the people talking to each other) usually
face each other in a discussion and do not speak at the same time. Most people
initiate their conversations and greet each other, then continue to talk in a turn-
taking way.
Some of the speech events you may be engaged with is when you deliver your
speech during the room-to-room campaign for a n S S G election, turn-over speech
during the Juniors-Seniors Promenade, and welcome address or speech of gratitude 9
Research indicates that the speeches make people remember so little. People
can hear and not understand the voice. Write two simple phrases instead of one
long, complicated sentence. Interpret your speech aloud as you write it down. Your
question should be a representation of who you are and what you care about. Do
analysis. If you have the evidence to back him u p, your new policy plan will sound
very good.

The Structure of Your Speech
(https://www.perthtoastmasters.org/experiences-speech-ideas-example-speech
-creative-process-conception-execution/)
Introduction
Because the introduction serves as both a sales pitch and a useful outline, it should
strike a good balance between hype and content. Get the audience's attention,
introduce the subject, clarify its importance to the audience, state a thesis or intent,
and outline the key points which are all essential. You c an have a road map that
outlines your key points by the end of the introduction. (Based on “Boundless
Communications” from courses.lumenlearning.com)
Body
The body of a speech is the central section of the speech in which the main ideas and
key concepts of the speech are discussed. Except for the introduction and
conclusion, the body is everything. The main points of a speech make up the body of
the speech. This is significant because it aids the audience's comprehension of your
speech. ( Jackson, n.d.)
Conclusion
Your speech's conclusion summarizes your main points and purpose while leaving a
lasting impression on your audience. The conclusion's purpose is to summarize your
main points and prepare the audience for the end of your speech. You'll want to
recapture the essence of your speech, including your main points and the reason
you spoke. It's especially important to remember that the end of your speech isn't
the time to introduce new points or new supporting evidence; doing so will only
confuse the audience. Consider your conclusion to be like tying a bow or a ribbon:
it's the finishing touch that makes your project stand out. (Based on “Boundless
Communications” from courses.lumenlearning.com)

Congratulations! You have made it this far. Aren’t you proud of yourself ? You
have performed varied activities which added more to your knowledge. You are now
in the final round. Good luck!
1. Practice Inflection
Gather some children's books (aimed at 6-10 years of age) and read them
aloud in class or at home. Using inflection to show the punctuation, the force and
the characters. Don’t be scared! Remember this is how most kids learn to read and
speak.
2. Pronunciation
Put several forms and backgrounds into many books, or publications. Browse
through the email and find odd words. Look at them in a dictionary online or offline
and see how they are pronounced. It could turn into a ‘stump the speaker’ game of
guessing how every word is pronounced. This c an also be used to point out certain
common words which are frequently mispronounced.
3. Projection
Think of a n interesting topic. Talk to yourself in a mirror. Don't scream. Keep
it going for a few minutes (it's going to be loud), then ask someone in your home
about his/her observations of what you are doing.

What you do in this activity is you stand up before people (you can do it home
by yourself as well) and you take one of your friends and introduce them to them.
Instead of presenting them in the usual way, though, you are making them u p a
fictional story.
S o , you say, hi this is S a m anth a , and she moonlights as a guitarist in the
church. And you talk about her life, whatever it may be.
2. Impromptu Game
Essentially, you just get up in front of people and someone gives you
something impromptu in which to ride.
It could be a topic; it could be a sentence, or it could be just a single word or
something like that. Bu t we run on just one subject.
For example: You need to talk about the Corona Virus Disease of 2019,
or you 24
need to talk about what makes you a great learner, or you need to talk about
social distancing or constant proper handwashing. So that’s the impromptu game.
