CHAPTER II Expressing Like and Dislike

General Purpose Students can express their feeling about like and dislike with good expression. Specific Purpose Students can use proper terminology of like and dislike about something in speaking or writing. Introduction People may have different opinion about something. For example, there are people who like football meanwhile others do not like it, or we can see some people who like a cat as their pet but others may choose a dog because they do not like cats. This feeling of like and dislike can be expressed in speaking or in writing properly because actually the feeling is not the same among people. Some people may like football more than others. On the other side, there are people who do not like a cat but they can still welcome one if they have to, meanwhile, other people may not welcome it at all. So, the degree of like and dislike are varied among people and it can be expressed with proper terminologies. Materials Here are some expression of like and dislike and the degree represented by a plus (+) for like and a minus (-) for dislike. More plus means that the degree of like is high, on the contrary, more minus means more feeling of dislike. Adore He has adored Persela since he was thirteen.
