Reading N Writing Ass.
Answer:
1. Yes, because in introduction the author explain all the details and he/ she analyze the places
which the topic is all about “Forgotten Heroes”. The named of authored is Mr. Jaime C. Laya,
forgotten heroes is all about the generation of Spanish defeated the manila in 15 th century
and the Tondo Conspiracy of 1587-1588. The author writes the details about the old city in
manila and what happened in the past of colonization and having a conspiracy in tondo.
“Pitong Gatang was among the 24 chiefs of present-day Metro Manila, Rizal, Bulacan, and
Pampanga who in 1587-88 plotted the first uprising against Spain and certainly suffered
more grievously than the nonentities who have sought immortality by renaming streets”-
Jaime C. Laya, this message is all about the other region in the Philippines are against to the
transaction of Spanish to our country and overthrow the Spanish governments in the
Philippines. The strategy that the author used is organization because the topic that he used
is all about the history and completeness of ideas that he writes in article.
2. Yes, because in the body part the author writes the situational of Agustin de Legaspi and
Martin Panga that they are protecting the Philippines from the Spanish government. Agustin
de Legaspi is the leader of the Tondo Conspiracy of 1587-1588 and Martin Panga is the
cousin of Agustin de Legaspi who are always helped but unfortunately, they arrested
because they violating the rules of Spanish Governments. Villagers had been released,
probably forced to work for Spaniards as servants. De Legaspi and Panga started to join in
Japanese to have an agreement for overthrow the Spanish Government in the Philippines.
The main ideas in the middle of the part is for planning to overthrow the Spanish
government in the Philippines and to have a freedom country. I think coherence and
cohesion because they used effectively help the discourse flow.
3. The writers ended the story in the way of saying a lot of names that they helped to
overthrow the Spanish Government in the Philippines and he last his sentence through
giving the advice. The strategy that he used is language used because a lot of name that he
writes and its hard to pronounce other name and place that is written in Spanish word.
4. Yes the author used the Spanish language in the article that he write, name and placed that
are Spanish word and he used the familiar, not Obscure and the concrete and specific.
