1. Uses suspense; " The next day Father was hurt at work. A neck injury. Two days later he was dead."  - based on my own understanding, i consider this part uses suspense. Because the author did not clarify clearly why his father died. It only says thst his father were hurt then turns out a neck injury and as a reader i am not satisfied of how how he defines his father's death.  2.Showing instead of telling; "when I raised my face to father's to ask if I could stop, he pointed to an area that I missed."  -it shows an action which his father were pointing to an area without telling a single word.  3.Sets little things; "At the hospital I recall mother holding her hand over her eyes as if she was looking into a light."  -it makes the reader like me visualized what's happening on the character in the story.  4. Uses dialogue; In the first paragraph the story uses a dialogue.  "Put your thumb like this" as his father talked to him, I assu...

*Which political ideology do you think will solve the issues we see in our society?         Our society faces many problems that need solutions. By looking at these issues and considering libertarianism as a way to fix them, we can see how this political idea can make our future better.        First, one big problem is that people don't have enough freedom to make their own choice's. Libertarianism says that individuals should be able to decide thing's for themselves without the government getting too involved. This can help with issues like too many rules and not enough personal rights.         Second, another problem is that the government can be too big and not very good at making decisions. Libertarianism believes in smaller government and letting local communities have more say in what happens. This can make decisions fairer and more effective by giving power to the people in their own communities.    ...

"CHOOSING TO STAY HOME" 1. Suspense: ans: "The hustle and bustle of the barangay is perhaps intensified in the wake of a fire that ravaged the place a week before we arrived." As a reader, this opening sentence made me curious about the fire's impact and what the residents were going through. 2. Showing Instead of Telling: ans: "Presently, Pasil isn’t allowed to rebuild itself, but the background noise for our conversation with Nay Salbing is the sound of a hammer on metal. A neighbor is putting up a new zinc roofs, defying the explicit rules set by the mayor to not start any rebuilding efforts for now." This scene showed me how determined the residents were to rebuild their homes even when they weren't supposed to.   3.

Cartons are on the gr...
