1. Why is it important to be ethical in communicating today?
 With all the new technologies and social medias that we are into this days,as well as the
new normal.We gain knowledge and understand human rights and that includes our
limits. Being ethical is important for everyone as we go on our daily lives with our
family,friends,colleagues and random people we met once or often.We must keep the
good values that was imparted from our ancestors until our generation now. We may
have the times doing the opposite,yet we must assess ourselves to always choose the
right in our thoughts,words and action.Being ethical means acting under the principles of
morality or acting in good moral standards. It allows us to practice empathetic towards
our community without expecting in return.

loved and respected by all.My mother would always tell me not to look down on anyone

Witches.” Rev. Jerry Falwell

underestimated and under stated yet they’ve proven themselves thus women nowadays was able to
practice their rights such as schooling while doing other chores.Women empowerment where very visible
that makes some other men gets irritated.

6. Who comes to mind on the subject of violating the ethics of communication?

 Attitude and good conversation are words that comes to my mind on the subject violating the ethics of
communication.we all know that white lies are still a lie.If only we simply be ourselves as well as a law
abiding citizen,things will fall into its places radiantly.

7. Why do people communicate in an unethical manner?

 Communication and good conversation is one of an effective way to handle unexpected
situation such as an encounter with an unethical mannered person.Unethical
communication impairs them because it helps them get what they want, they might
believe that this unethical way is the easiest the fastest and the only way to get what
they want. Sometimes people know that they are not ethical when they do what they do,
othertimes they do not.Wheteher they are having the bad day or it’s their attitude,we
need gather and keep ourself composed and relaxed.It builds positive relationships while
telling them your point as well.

misunderstandings or unity amidst diversity.if we would only knew how to communicate with our senses and
in good manner.rest assured we will be a better grown ups.

Lesson 3

Activity 1: After-Reading Questions on World Englishes

1. Based on McCrum’s essay and some additional research on your part, why is the rise of English such as a
remarkable “success story”? What led to English on taking the role of a global language?
 The rise of English is a remarkable success story.English at the end of the 20th Century is
more widely spoken and written than any other language ever has been. It has become the
language of the planet, the first truly global language that until now is widely used even new
born babies can respond whenever the mom tries to converse with.During this time we have
learned too that there different accents and dialects of english.
2. Can you add to the evidence given by McCrum in the paragraphs 3-7 that English is the most widespread
language in the world?
 It is universal, wherever and wherever you especially in other countries, the people will understand English
language.Nowadays we can see and hear children speaking english.and i am amaze with their
vocabulary.parents tries to talk but mostly they get it from the social platforms that they've been watching.

3. David Crystal (2003) says that “a language achieves a genuinely global status when it develops a special role that
is recognized in every country.” What is the special role of English in the Philippines?
 The special role of English in the Philippines Is a lot way better with education.aside from learning to
communicate with english language, we also taught to study our english written books susch as math and
science.When you know how to put words in english, it is easier to understand what is written or problems to
solve or compute.it is a matter of how you pen down your thoughts and analization ni english.

4. Why does McCrum say that “we should not talk to English but of many Englishes”?
 McCrum says that "we should not talk of English but of many Englishes"
because the English language usage spans across multiple nations.

Thus, when you plan on migrating to a country, you ought to learn what

specific kind of English language they speak.You need to learn the
accent that depends which state or country.There are some words and
statements of each.
