Day2: Various Analogies
An analogy contains sets of words in which there is a common relationship between
the sets. It compares or contrasts set of ideas that may seem to have no relationship at all.
Also, an analogy is a form of reasoning which compares to make a particular point.
Example:
In the first example, a flamingo is a type of a bird, while grizzly is a type of a bear.
For the second example, the relationship is that these words are opposites or
antonyms.
The colon (:) is used to split the analogy into two parts. The first part is the left-hand
side of the double colon, “flamingo : bird,” while the second part is the right hand side, “grizzly
: bear” Keep in mind that the first set of words presents a relationship that is the same or alike
as the second set of words. One possible way to read or verbalize an analogy is like this
example: famingo is to bird as grizzly is to bear.
Example:
soldier : army :: musician : band soldier is to army as musician is to band
circle : shape :: sunflower : flower circle is to shape as sunflower is to flower
float : sink :: hardworking :: lazy float is to sink as hardworking is to lazy
anxiety : worry :: winner : victor anxiety is to worry as winner is to victor
brush : teeth :: comb : hair brush is to teeth as comb is to hair
feet : walk :: tongue : taste feet is to walk as tongue is to taste
In short, to solve analogies, you need first to analyze what type of relationship does
the two words have with one another. Usually, you will see an analogical problem like this:
Start with the left-hand analogy first. What is the relationship of the finger to the hand?
Did you think that it is a part of the hand?
Now that you know that it is a part to the whole relationship, transfer that idea to the
right-hand analogy. In what part can you see the toe?
If you thought of foot, you’ve just solved your first analogy!

WEEK 2 (August 23-28, 2021)
News are triggered by the current events in the society. When a highly
significant news comes in, television networks prioritize airing it. We sometimes
experience this in the middle of watching a highly anticipated where it is suddenly
interrupted by a clip featuring a news anchor. The immediacy to spread the information
is viable to deliver news.
This kind of viewing material that is part of a commercial break showing a short
broadcast of a current event is called a news flash.
Example: 24 Oras News Alert, Flash Report

2. Weather report
It is usually a part of an entire news program that tells and foretells weather
conditions in a specific area. Where the reports vary a lot in how much information
they contain. The simplest and shortest weather report contains only one piece of
information. The present temperature this is the type of report you often read on the
radio. More detailed weather reports also contain information about precipitation, wind
speed and direction, relative humidity, atmospheric pressure and other things as well.
3. Internet-Based Program
Online videos are very popular among all digital users for it is a quick, easy
access to a repertoire of information across all disciplines. Online videos that range
from popular culture, interests, academics, technical skills, and even historical and
current events are available on the web. One of the famous streaming websites is
YouTube, where users can upload and download thousands of videos coming from
different people from all walks of life.
Before watching a film, you want to know what it is about and whether it is
interesting enough that when you go to the cinema, you will get your money’s worth. A
type of viewing material called a trailer shows you a series of snips piled together that
tells the gist of the movie. The trailer is a sneak peak of the movie made for viewers’
anticipation and finally to make moviegoers watch the entire film.
Filmmakers and film producers make sure the trailer is engaging enough because
half of the movie’s success is through how the trailer invites moviegoers into watching
the film.

B. Clause
A clause is a group of words having both subject and a verb. It can sometimes
act as a sentence but is not always the case.
Two Types of Clauses
An independent clause is one that can stand alone as a sentence. It requires no
extra information to understand. It has a subject, a verb and a complete thought.
Examples: (in bold letters)
After I die, I will be forgotten.
I love my country, so I will make sure to protect its sovereignty.
When we pay our taxes diligently, it shows that we love our
country.
Meanwhile, a dependent clause is one that cannot stand alone as a sentence. It
is called dependent clause because it needs to be attached or joined to an independent
clause. It is a supporting part of a sentence. Dependent clauses begin with subordinating
conjunction such as before, if, when, after, so, hence, therefore, since, because, so that,
etc.
Examples:
The boldfaced clauses have a subject and a verb but the idea or
thought is incomplete.
After I did my best to study, I received high marks.
Because I woke up late, I was not able to pass my projects on time.
Before you leave the classroom, make sure to turn off all the lights.

Day 2: Phrases and Clauses Used in a Sentence
A phrase is the basic unit of English grammar and is a group of words that do not
have a subject nor a predicate. Thus, it cannot stand alone and does not have a complete
meaning.
Examples:
I found a brand-new pair of trainers.
Homemade carrots and orange cake taste delicious.
Almost all healthy adult foxes can swim.
A clause is a group of words that has both a subject and a verb. A clause with both
a subject and a verb that is complete in thought is called an independent clause. On the
other hand, a clause with a subject and a verb but can't stand on its own in meaning is called
a dependent clause.
Examples:
Shaira could not catch the bus because she was late.

As a boy scout, you should know how to pitch your tent.
She failed to read the directions that is why she got lost.
I was very tired so I decided to stay at home.
When an independent and dependent clause combine, they form sentences. They
are groups of words that contain both a subject and a predicate and can stand alone as it has
complete meaning.
1. Subject
It performs an action or is described by other words in the sentence.
2. Predicate
This gives information about the subject. It indicates what the subject does or
describes the subject.
Example:
My older sister actually bought a new map for their project.
The sentence is all about “my older sister.” Hence, this entire phrase may
consider as the complete subject of the sentence. It consists of a determiner, modifier, and
noun, in that order. “actually bought a new map for their project” says something about
the subject of the sentence. It tells what the sister did. Hence, the entire phrase is the
complete predicate. A complete predicate may consist of a verb phrase, modifiers,
determiners, direct object, indirect object, predicate noun, or predicate adjective.
