Key Points
Making Inferences
Inference is sometimes called “reading between the lines”. When you
make an inference, you use all of the information that you have available at a time
to guess what is behind the literal information of a text. In other words, you go
beyond what is stated explicitly in the text to infer the intended message by
paying attention to certain “clues”.

When you infer, make observations and use:

Clues from the text What you already know


(words and pictures) (your knowledge and experiences)

So you can make a smart guess!

Key Points
Intonation Patterns
Intonation is a pattern of changing pitch during an utterance (a phrase,
clause, sentence) to convey linguistic information. It is the rising and falling of the
pitch when speaking. There are two intonation patterns in the English language.

1. Rising Intonation is used in Yes-No questions (questions answerable


by yes or no)
Example:
Do you know Lovely Ann “Diday” de la Cruz?
Can you help me answer some questions about her?

2. Rising-Falling Intonation is used in:


a. Wh-questions
Example: What is your name?
Where do you go home?
b. Alternative questions (questions with alternatives, introduced by
“or”)
Example: Is Lovely Ann “Diday” de la Cruz a native of
Tacloban City or not?
c. Declarative sentences
Example: You are really a big help.
d. Commands
Example: Follow your parents’ advice.

Key Points
Useful Expressions to Ask for One’s Opinion

An opinion is what you think about something. Everyone has opinions on


lots of different topics, but the cool thing about opinions is that they’re different.
You might like the color blue, but your friend might like red. That’s an opinion,
because it’s different from person to person. Opinions are different from facts,
because facts are always true. Even though opinions can be based on facts, they
differ from person to person.
Many of our conversations prompt us to ask and offer an opinion about
certain topics. To ask for an opinion, we need to take note of these useful
expressions:

What do you think about…? (What do you think about my new bag?)
What’s your opinion about…? (What’s your opinion about the color?
Do/Did you like…? (Did you like the movie?)
Have you given some thought to…? (Have you given some thought to
his offer?)
What’s your take on…? (What’s your take on the city’s new rerouting
scheme?)
What are your thoughts on…? (What are your thoughts on the school’s
new policy?)
What are your views/ideas on…? (What are your views on the proposed
policies?)
What can you say about…? (What can you say about putting the whole
city on lockdown again?)
Do you have anything to say about…? (Do you have anything to say
about Marisa’s suggestion?)
How do you feel about…(How do you feel about Kris’ official statement on
Facebook?)

Key Points
Useful Expressions to Express your Opinion

To express our view, we need to take note of these useful expressions:

mind looks all wrong.)

and effective executive.)
I would say that… (I would say that we have about a 50-50 chance of

rainy day.
Cedie: You could be right, but I still think trees are more important than
cars.
Remy: You’ve got a point there, but maybe they can plant trees near the
station.

trees.

Selection 2

Alma: What did you guys think of the game last night? I thought our team
played really well even though they lost. I’m really proud of the
players.
Lilibeth: I agree with you 100%. They tried so hard and were so close to
winning. I really enjoyed it because it was so exciting all the way to
the very end.
Alma: That’s exactly how I feel.
Leslie: I disagree.

18
Alma: You don’t agree?
Leslie: Not at all! Well I can understand your praise for their effort, but I’m
afraid that the team did not played well. To be honest, I think it was
an embarrassing performance, which was not close to the standard
we expect from them.
Marjorie: I don’t know Leslie, I have to side Alma on this one. It was clear
that they were doing their best right until the end. I think it was a
great performance.
Alma: Exactly, I couldn’t agree more.
Leslie: Are you serious? I’d say it was the exact opposite. I think it was a
really bad performance. They made so many basic mistakes, and
the coach made extremely poor decisions. In fact, I think most of
the blame should be directed at him. It made me embarrass to be a
fan of the team.
