Notes
6. In exclamatory’ sentences beginning with here and there to express what is actually taking place in
the present.
7. When two actions of the future are being talked about, one dependent on the other, the former
action is represented by present simple and the latter by future simple.
2. For a temporary action that may not be actually happening at the time of speaking but was
happening in the recent past and is still happening in recent future.
4. For an action that is planned or arranged to take place in the near future.
Note: But it is not good to use the present continuous for slightly distant future. So, don’t say
a) I am going to cinema next week. Rather, use the future simple. So, it is better if you say
5. When the reference is to a particularly obstinate habit, the present continuous is used instead of
present simple. An adverb like always, continually, constantly is also used.
For example: It is no use scolding him; he always does what is forbidden. (Incorrect)
Note: that his doing what is forbidden has become a die-hard habit. The habit persists in spite of advice
or warning. So, we should use the present continuous.
For example: It is no use scolding him; he is always doing what is forbidden. (Correct)
2. Action completed in the immediate past or an action of the past whose effect lingers in the present.
The given sentence appears to be incomplete. The reader of the sentence immediately queries. ‘When
did you write three books?” It would be a different case if you said
Then the reader would infer that you wrote books in the past as a profession or hobby. But when you
are being so specific as to say “three books”, we immediately feel the need of a time frame . Since no
time frame is mentioned, we assume it to be ‘by now’. So, we have something to the effect.
For example:
3. The present perfect is never used with adverbs of past time. In such cases the past simple should be
used.
For example:
“Last week” is not immediate past. You may therefore be tempted to use the present perfect. But
remember that the immediate past here does not go unindicated. Last week is being used as an adverb
of past time.
So, For example: India won the match last week. (Correct)
4. To express past actions whose time is not given and not definite – actions with their effect
continuing in the present.
For example:
5. To describe the past events when we think more of their effect in the present than of the action
itself .
6. For long actions and situations which started in the near past and went on until very recently.
For an action, which began at some time in the past and is still continuing. With the present perfect
continuous tense an adverb or phrase that expresses time is used.
For example:
1. To indicate an action completed in the past . Generally, adverbs or adverb phrases of past time are
used in the past simple tense.
For example:
2. To express imaginary present situations or imaginary future events that may not happen .
For example:
3. When this tense is used without an adverb of time, then time may be either implied or indicated by
the context .
1. To denote an action going on at some time in the past . The time of the action may or may not be
indicated .
For example:
2. When a new action happened in the middle of a longer action. In this case Past simple and Past
continuous are used together. Past simple is used for the new action.
1. When two actions happened in the past. In this case it is necessary to show which action happened
earlier than the other. Here past perfect is used for the action, which happened earlier.
For example:
2. An action that began before a certain point of time in the past & was continuing at the given point
of time in the sentence. A time expression like since last year , for the last few days is generally put
after perfect continuous tense.
For example:
b. Here, At that time is the given point of time and for two months is the point of time in the past.
For example:
1. The future perfect continuous tense indicates an action represented it being in progress over a
period of time that will end in the future. Generally time period is mentioned along with it.
For example: By next July we will have been living here for four years.
2. Event occurring at the same time must be given in the same tense.
3. Will or Shall cannot be used twice in the same sentence even if both the actions refer to the future
tense.
For example:
4. With the phrases as if and as though the past tense and plural form of the verb should be used.
For example:
5. With the word ‘wish’ four verbs are used namely were, had, could, would. ‘Were’ is used when the
wish seems to be unrealisable.
6. ‘Had’ is used when our wish is a lament over the past happening .
8. ‘Could’ is used when we wish that something that has happened already should have happened
otherwise.
For example: He did not go because he was busy yesterday. I wish he could go with you.
11. In case of conditional sentences ‘had’ and ‘would have’ are used.
Subjunctive Mood
‘Am’ or ‘was’ is replaced by 'were', ‘be’ takes the place of ‘are’ , or singular active verbs lose their -s or
-es endings .
At that moment , I had the most frantic wish that he were dead .
3 . Clauses after verbs such as ask, demand, insist , propose, request , and suggest :
4 . Statements of necessity :
to advise ( that )
to ask ( that )
to command ( that )
to demand ( that )
to desire ( that )
to insist ( that )
to propose ( that )
to recommend ( that )
to request ( that )
to suggest ( that )
to urge ( that )
It is best ( that )
It is crucial ( that )
It is desirable ( that )
It is essential ( that )
It is imperative ( that )
It is important ( that )
It is recommended ( that )
It is urgent ( that )
It is vital ( that )
Examples:
13. She suggests that Mark work full time from Saturday .
14. The doctor recommended that she should see a specialist about the problem .
A sense verb is a verb that describes one of the five senses: sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste. Verbs
such as look, seem, taste, feel, smell, and sound are sensory (sense) verbs. In English, it is important to
use adjectives rather than adverbs with sense verbs.
Example:
Grammar:
Rule 8. With words that indicate portions—e.g., a lot, a majority, some, all —Rule 1 given earlier in
this section is reversed, and we are guided by the noun after of. If the noun after of is singular, use a
singular verb. If it is plural, use a plural verb.
Examples:
NONE
When none stands in as a shortened form of no one , as was its original purpose, it can be followed by
a singular verb.
1. None of the students are absent . (Not any of the students are absent from school.)
2. None of the jewels were stolen. (Not any of the jewels were stolen).
Either
1. Either of the restaurants is a good choice. (It might be easier to think of this as either one of the
restaurants, where one is singular, and either one is a good choice.
1. Does either of you know a good restaurant? (NOT: Do either of you know)
2. Let's get some ice cream, if either of you wants it . (NOT: If either of you want)
Neither
Neither of these shops has the jacket in my size. (NOT: Neither of these shops have)

Ito ay mga tulang isinasadula sa mga entablado o iba pang tanghalan. Narito ang mga uri ng tulang dula:
I . Ang tulang pasalaysay ay naglalarawan ng mga tagpo o pangyayaring mahahalaga sa buhay. Ito ay
may tatlong uri – ang epiko , awit at kurido , at balad .
Ang epiko ay mahabang tula na inaawit o binibigkas. Nauukol ito sa kababalaghan at pagtatagumpay ng
pangunahing tauhan laban sa mga panganib at hamong kanyang natatanggap. Ang mga nagsulat nito ay
naglayong gamitin ito sa ritwal. Ang Biag ni Lam-ang (Buhay ni Lam-ang) ay isang halimbawa ng epiko.

nang ipinanganak. Isa pang halimbawa ng epiko ay ang tungkol sa Ifugao na si Hudhud. Ang epikong ito
ay kinakanta tuwing may importanteng mga kasayahan, katulad ng anihan at pagtatanim.

Kubo at ang Paruparong Bukid.
2. Soneto – ang tulang ito ay tungkol sa damdamin at kaisipan. Ito ay may 14 na taludtod. Dito ay may
mapupulot na aral ang mambabasa. Ang halimbawa ng soneto ay ang Sonnet on Worker’s Rights ni

komedya na isinulat ni Juan Crisostomo Soto (o Crissot), na tinaguriang “Ama ng Panitikang
Kapampangan” ay ang komedyang Kiki-Riki, isang komedyang nakasulat sa Kapampangan at may isang
yugto.

hawakan ng tabo ay syang sasagot sa tanong ng isang dalaga na may matalinhagang bugtong at
matalinhagang sasagot ang binata. Ito ay nagmula sa isang alamat ng isang prinsesa na nahulugan ng
singsing habang siya'y naglalakbay sa karagatan . Kung sino man ang makakita ng singsing ay siyang
mapapakasalan ng prinsesa.
Duplo - ito ang pumalit sa karagatan. Labanan ito ng pagalingan sa pagbigkas at pagbibigay katwiran
nang patula. Ang mga pagbigkas ay galing sa mga kasabihan, salawikain at Bibliya. Ito ay madalas laruin
tuwing may lamay sa patay.

kuro ng may-akda.
PANITIKAN
Ang panitikan ay nagsasabi o nagpapahayag ng mga kaisipan, mga damdamin, mga karanasan, hangarin
at diwa ng mga tao. At ito rin ang pinakapayak na paglalarawan lalo na sa pagsulat ng tuwiran o tuluyan
at patula.
Nagsasalaysay din ito sa pamahalaan, lipunan at mga pananampatalaya at mga karanasang may kaugnay
ng iba’t ibang uri ng damdamin tulad ng pag-ibig, kaligayahan, kalungkutan, pag-asa, pagkapoot,

PLANT TROPISMS
Growth toward light, or positive tropism is demonstrated in many vascular plant, such as angiosperms,
gymnosperms, and ferns. Stems in these plants exhibit positive phototropism and grow in the direction
of a light source.
Plant stems and leaves demonstrate positive phototropism , while roots (mostly influenced by gravity)
tend to demonstrate negative phototropism.
Heliotropism is a type of phototropism in which certain plant structures, typically stems and flowers,
follow the path of the sun from east to west as it moves across the sky.
Thigmotropism describes plant growth in response to touch or contact with a solid object. Positive
thigmostropism is demonstrated by climbing plants or vines, which have specialized structures called
tendrils. A tendril is a thread-like appendage used for twinning around solid structures. While tendrils
demonstrate positive thigmotropism, roots can exhibit negative thigmotropism at times. As roots extend
into the ground, they often grow in the direction away from an object.
Global warming is the long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system.
The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's
surface to a temperature above what it would be without this atmosphere.
A greenhouse gas is a gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range. The
primary greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous
oxide and ozone.
Homeostatic - a machine that regulates room temperature. At the centre of a thermostat is a bimetallic
strip that responds to temperature changes.

Tropical cyclone - also called typhoon or hurricane, an intense circular storm that originates over warm
tropical oceans and is characterized by low atmospheric pressure, high winds, and heavy rain.
Meteoroids are objects in space that range in size from dust grains to small asteroids. Think of them as
“space rocks."
When meteoroids enter Earth’s atmosphere (or that of another planet, like Mars) at high speed and
burn up, the fireballs or “shooting stars” are called meteors .
When a meteoroid survives a trip through the atmosphere and hits the ground, it’s called a meteorite.
Comets are often referred to as "dirty snowballs." They are left over from the formation of stars and
planets billions of years ago.
Machismo is the sense of being ' manly' and self-reliant, the concept associated with "a strong sense of
masculine pride: an exaggerated masculinity. It is associated with "a man's responsibility to provide for,

Split personality: Multiple personality disorder, a neurosis in which the personality becomes dissociated
into two or more distinct parts each of which becomes dominant and controls behavior from time to
time to the exclusion of the other parts. A modern name for this condition is dissociative identity
disorder.
Cognitive dissonance (Leon Festinger) is the mental discomfort experienced by a person who holds two
or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values.
For example, when people smoke (behavior) and they know that smoking causes cancer (cognition),
they are in a state of cognitive dissonance.

Solutes are the particles that are dissolved in a solvent, and together they form a solution. In your
body, these solutes are ions like sodium and potassium. There are three types of solutions that can
occur in your body based on solute concentration: isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic. An isotonic
solution is one in which the concentration of solutes is the same both inside and outside of the cell. A
hypotonic solution is one in which the concentration of solutes is greater inside the cell than outside
of it, and a hypertonic solution is one where the concentration of solutes is greater outside the cell
than inside it.
Myosin filaments play two key roles in muscle contraction and cell motility.
Microfilament functions include cytokinesis, amoeboid movement and cell motility in general,
changes in cell shape, endocytosis and exocytosis, cell contractility and mechanical stability.
Pseudopods/pseudifilament have two main functions: locomotion and capture of prey or engulfing of
food.
Auxins and Gibberellins are growth hormones that stimulate cell elongation and cause plants to grow
taller.
Cytokinins are a group of hormones that promote cell division in plant roots and shoots and the
growth of buds.
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a plant hormone. ABA functions in many plant developmental processes,
including seed and bud dormancy, the control of organ size and stomatal closure.
When the warm air and cool air converge, it forms/causes stormy weather.
Thyroxine plays a crucial role in heart and digestive function, metabolism, brain development, bone
health, and muscle control. It affects almost all of the body's systems, which means proper thyroxine
levels are vital for health.
Epiphyte, also called air plant, any plant that grows upon another plant or object merely for physical
support.
Saprophyte - a plant, fungus, or microorganism that lives on dead or decaying organic matter.
Natural Selection - parang survival of the fittest. Kung sino ang makaka-adapt sa environment at

Parts of flower
1. Pistil - is considered the “female” part of a flower because it produces seeds. Its purpose is
reproduction. It’s made up of the following parts:
Stigma - is the upper part of the pistil. It receives the pollen to affect reproduction.
Style - is the long part of the pistil. It provides a place for the pollen tube to grow. It also acts as a barrier
for bad pollen.
Pollen Tube - is a part of the pistil that is located inside of the style. It enables the pollen to go from the
stigma through the style to the ovary.
Ovary - is the enlarged part of the pistil located at the end of the style. The ovary is designed to protect
the ovules. It’s the job of the ovules to fertilize the pollen to grow it into a seed.
In flowering plants that produce fruit, the ovary usually develops into the fleshy fruit that surrounds the
inner seed.
Ovule - is located inside of the ovary. Basically, these are the flower’s eggs.
The pollen will travel from the stigma through the style to the ovary. Once in the ovary, the pollen will
then fertilize the ovules.
This fertilization ensures the ovule will eventually develop into a seed. In some plants, only a seed will be
grown. In other plants, a seed and a fleshy fruit will be grown simultaneously.
2. Petal - is the colored part of the flower that gives it a unique shape. Petals are often brightly colored
to attract insects, birds, bees, and other animals. In this way, the petals aid with the pollination of the
plant.
3. Stamen - is considered the “male” part of a flower because it produces the pollen. Its job is
reproduction.
Anther - is located on the end of the filament. It’s usually fairly compact and is where the pollen is
created.
Filament - is the long narrow part of the stamen that supports the anther. It connects the anther to the
rest of the flower.
4. Leaf - is the part of the flower responsible for making food for the process of photosynthesis. Carbon
dioxide, water, and light are turned into glucose.
5. Stem - is the part of the flower that attaches it to the rest of the plant. It also supports the rest of the
flower.
In addition to supporting the flower, the stem enables water and nutrients to flow from the soil into the
leaf for the process of photosynthesis to take place.
Xylem - The part of the stem that moves food to the rest of the plant is called the xylem.
Phloem - The part of the stem that moves water to the rest of the plant is called the phloem.
Cambium - The cambium is located inside of the stem and provides a continuous cylinder. It enables the
food and water to be transported to the rest of the plant together.
Vascular Bundles (Dichotomous Plant) - The vascular bundles of the stem are the groupings of the xylem
cells, phloem cells, and cambium. They only occur in dichotomous plants.
6. Receptacle - is where the stem connects to the rest of the flower. It provides support to the rest of
the flower.
7. Sepal - These are leaf-like structures attached to the outside of the flower. They’re very similar to
petals but with the function of enclosing the developing bud. Some sepals are green while others look
similar to the flower’s petals.
Radon - yellow
Saturated solution is a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the solvent.
