LESSON 1
Whenever you argue on an issue or specific situation, you always try to justify and ex
plain your own point of view and stand. This is called claim.
A claim persuades, argues, convinces, proves, or provocatively suggests something to
a reader who may or may not initially agree with you. Also , a claim is an assertion of fact or
belief that needs to be supported with evidence. With that being said, you can conclude
that a claim is significant in an argumentative essay because it serves as the main argu
ment of the writer.
The different argumentative claims can be identified into three, namely claim of fact,
claim of policy, and claim of value.
Claim of Fact
This claim answers the questions: "Did it happen? Is it true? Does it really exist?"
Claims of fact appear to be statements of fact, but remember that your claim needs
to be argumentative, so you need to make a claim about which not everyone would
agree. Some claims of fact are not arguable.
LESSON 1
Examples of Claim of Facts that are arguable:
This claim answers the query: "What should we do about it! Claims of policy suggest a
solution to a problem that has been defined or described by an argument.
Examples:
a) The death penalty should be abolished because it does nothing to prevent murder.
b) Legislation should be passed to stop the sale of cigarettes.
c) The age at which people can get a driver's license must be raised to
18. 3. Claim of Value
This claim is also known as evaluative claim aim since it seeks to answer the question: Is
it good or bad?" Making use of this claim requires to evaluate your topic or an aspect of
your topic. Is it good or bad? Valuable or not valuable? Desirable or undesirable?
Examples:
a) A mother can abandon her child if she cannot give her child's basic needs.
b) The right to bear arms in Mindanao is very important.
c) Copying answers trom your classmate is unacceptable because grades will not de
fine you.
Keep in mind that a claim must be argumentative, When you make a claim, you are
arguing tor your stand or your point of view she issue or phenomenon. Moreover, a good
claim is always specific. It makes a precise argument (Rental of a DVD is already not that
popular because you can download movies online.) rather than a general one (Rental of
DvD is gone.).
LESSON 2
your commencement from one of the fin
est universities in the world. I never
graduat ed from college. Truth be told, this
is the closest I’ve ever gotten to a college
gradu ation. Today I want to tell you three
stories from my life. That’s it. No big deal.
Just three stories.
The first story is about connecting the
dots.
I dropped out of Reed College after the
first 6 months, but then stayed around
help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had
saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out
OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions
I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes
that didn’t interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.
It wasn’t all romantic. I didn’t have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends’
rooms, I returned Coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk
the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the
Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my
curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one exam
ple:
Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in
the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was
beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn’t have to take
the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I
learned about serif and sans serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space
between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great.
It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can’t capture, and
I found it fascinating.
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But 10
years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back
to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful
typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac
would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since
Windows just copied the Mac, it’s likely that no personal computer would have
them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy
class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they
do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in
9
college. But it was very, very clear looking backward 10 years later.
Again, you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them
looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your
future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This
approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
My second story is about love and loss.
I was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in
my parents’ garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had
grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4,000
employees. We had just released our finest creation — the Macintosh — a year ear
lier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a
company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was
very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went
well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a
falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out.
And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone,
and it was devastating.
I really didn’t know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous
generation of entrepreneurs down — that I had dropped the baton as it was being
passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for
screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running
away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me — I still loved
what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been
rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.
I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing
that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was re
placed by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It
10
external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things
just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remember
ing that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you
have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your
heart.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the
morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn’t even know what a
pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is
incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My
doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor’s code
for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you’d have
the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything
is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say
your goodbyes.
I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they
stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines,
put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated,
but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a micro
scope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of
pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I’m fine now.
This was the closest I’ve been to facing death, and I hope it’s the closest I get for a
few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more
certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:
No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to
get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it.
And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of
Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right
12
now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become
the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by
dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the
noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have
the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what
you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth
Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow
named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with
his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960s, before personal computers and desktop
publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors and Polaroid cameras. It was
sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: It was
idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.
Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and
then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I
was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early
morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so
adventurous. Beneath it were the words: “Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.” It was their
farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always
wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
Thank you all very much.

LESSON 2
Analytical listening in which person evaluate the worth, value, or quality of the mes
sage from the speaker or listening text before coming up with a final decision and judg
ment. Yet Sometimes people tend to be biased and give prejudices or unfairness in their
opinion. Someone is called a bias when he or she favors a person, thing, event, or any other
things that can be considered as unfair. When a person is biased, he or she is giving preju
dice in his or her thoughts and opinions. A prejudice is a preconceived opinion that is not
based from reason or actual experiences. But why do biases matter? It is because bias can
affect the believability credibility, and reliability of the texts you listen to. In daily 1ife situa
tions, you likely use unconscious bias which is a typical human behavior so you technically
do it in some degree. These prejudices lead you to make a prejudgment without relevant
facts which leads us to make decisions and discriminations.
For example, if you are a boss of a company and you have an employee that has
been late for three consecutive days, you must have prejudged him or her as a lazy or irre
sponsible person. As a result, you might decide to give that person a hard time or worse fire
him or her without even investigating on what really happened. What if that person cannot
leave his or her sick child and forgot to explain because of constrained time? Thus, it is really
hard to base your decisions from your biases and prejudices. It is always better to pause
and think before doing anything.

eating he went to the pay phone in the back of the diner, then joined me in the booth again. I figured he’d
called my mother, but he didn’t give a report. He sipped at his coffee and stared out the window at the emp
ty road. “Come on, come on,” he said, though not to me. A little while later he said it again. When the troop
er’s car went past, lights flashing, he got up and dropped some money on the check. “Okay. Vámonos.” 19
The wind had died. The snow was falling straight down, less of it now and lighter. We drove away from the re
sort, right up to the barricade. “Move it,” my father told me. When I looked at him, he said, “What are you
waiting for?” I got out and dragged one of the sawhorses aside, then put it back after he drove through. He
pushed the door open for me. “Now you’re an accomplice,” he said. “We go down together.” He put the car
into gear and gave me a look. “Joke, son.” 20 Down the first long stretch I watched the road behind us, to see
if the trooper was on our tail. The barricade vanished. Then there was nothing but snow: snow on the road,
snow kicking up from the chains, snow on the trees, snow in the sky, and our trail in the snow. Then I faced for
ward and had a shock. There were no tracks ahead of us. My father was breaking virgin snow between tall
treelines. He was humming “Stars Fell on Alabama.” I felt snow brush along the floorboards under my feet. To
keep my hands from shaking I clamped them between my knees. 21 My father grunted thoughtfully and said,
“Don’t ever try this yourself.” 22 “I won’t.” 23 “That’s what you say now, but someday you’ll get your license
and then you’ll think you can do anything. Only you won’t be able to do this. You need, I don’t know—a cer
tain instinct.” 24 “Maybe I have it.” 25 “You don’t. You have your strong points, sure, just not this. I only mention
it because I don’t want you to get the idea this is something anybody can do. I’m a great driver. That’s not a
virtue, okay? It’s just a fact, and one you should be aware of. Of course you have to give the old heap some
credit too. There aren’t many cars I’d try this with. Listen!” 26 I did listen. I heard the slap of the chains, the stiff,
jerky rasp of the wipers, the purr of the engine. It really did purr. The old heap was almost new. My father
couldn’t afford it, and kept promising to sell it, but here it was.
I said, “Where do you think that policeman went to?” “Are you warm enough?” He reached over and
cranked up the blower. Then he turned off the wipers. We didn’t need them. The clouds had brightened. A
few sparse, feathery flakes drifted into our slipstream and were swept away. We left the trees and entered a
broad field of snow that ran level for a while and then tilted sharply downward. Orange stakes had been
planted at intervals in two parallel lines and my father steered a course between them, though they were far
enough apart to leave considerable doubt in my mind as to exactly where the road lay. He was humming
again, doing little scat riffs around the melody.
“Don’t get me started,” he said. “It’d take all day.” “Oh, right. Name one.” “Easy. You always think
ahead.” True. I always thought ahead. I was a boy who kept his clothes on numbered hangers to ensure
proper rotation. I bothered my teachers for homework assignments far ahead of their due dates so I could
draw up schedules. I thought ahead, and that was why I knew there would be other troopers waiting for us at
the end of our ride, if we even got there. What I didn’t know was that my father would wheedle and plead his
way past them—he didn’t sing “O Tannenbaum,” but just about—and get me home for dinner, buying a little
more time before my mother decided to make the split final. I knew we’d get caught; I was resigned to it.
And maybe for this reason I stopped moping and began to enjoy myself.
Why not? This was one for the books. Like being in a speedboat, only better. You can’t go downhill in a
boat. And it was all ours. And it kept coming, the laden trees, the unbroken surface of snow, the sudden white
vistas. Here and there I saw hints of the road, ditches, fences, stakes, though not so many that I could have
found my own way. But then I didn’t have to. My father was driving. My father in his forty-eighth year, rum
pled, kind, bankrupt of honor, flushed with certainty. He was a great driver. All persuasion, no coercion. Such
subtlety at the wheel, such tactful pedalwork. I actually trusted him. And the best was yet to come—
switchbacks and hairpins impossible to describe. Except maybe to say this: if you haven’t driven fresh powder,
you haven’t driven.

LESSON 3
You can include an in-text citation when you refer to, summarize, paraphrase, or
quote from another source. For every in-text citation in your paper, there must be a corre
sponding entry in your reference list.
American Psychological Association (APA) in-text citation for parenthetical style uses
the author's last name and the year of publication, for (APA) in-text citation for example,
(Villanueva, 2016).
Example: The ID is the most basic part of the personality, and wants instant gratifica
tion for our wants and needs. If these needs or wants are not met, a person becomes tense
or anxious (Freud, 1923). If you will be including the source directly in the sentence, you just
need to remove the parentheses in the author's name.
Example:
Erikson (1950) states that every person has his or her own unique 1dentity. This identity
is composed of the different personality traits that can be considered positive or negative
Other examples of using in-text citations given by APA are as follows:
