 2. 5. Statement: "A hound dog found a bone and held it tightly in his mouth. He
growled and scowled at anyone who attempted to take it away. Off into the
woods he went to bury his prize. When he came to a stream, he trotted over the
footbridge and happened to glance into the water. He saw his own reflection.
Thinking it was another dog with a bigger bone, he growled and scowled at it.
The reflection growled and scowled back. "I'll get THAT bone too," thought
the greedy dog, and he snapped his sharp teeth at the image in the water. Alas,
his own big bone fell with a splash, out of sight, the moment he opened his
mouth to bite!
Reaction: This statement shows a greedy personality.

Learning Task 5:
News clip #2
All minors in areas under general community quarantine (GCQ) will be allowed to go out
and shop in malls for the coming holidays if they are accompanied by their parents,
Interior Sec. Eduardo Año said Monday.

I choose this news clip #2 that I can totally relate as a minor. This is good news for
us who were restricted to go outside in longer span of time. This is somewhat helps us as
young people to release the stress or sadness they've been through during pandemic.
Being imprisoned into your own house is not a good idea especially that depression to
young children might occur. However, this is also a dangerous act because children ought
to play without safety protocols that's why parents are important to have accompanied
them to guide their children.
