WHAT I KNOW
Pre-assessment:
Listening is every bit as important to learning as reading, writing,
and speaking. And songs are a great way to engage yourself.
Here is a song with some words missing. Choose the appropriate group of
words in the box below and fill in the missing words. You can listen to the
lyrics or sing along with the music. Check it out in YouTube at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mx2sqLKw-kM. Play the song and pause
if needed. Once you are done, go through your answers to see which part you
got correct.
Win or lose
All my life I've been waiting for
'Cause I am here for a reason." And our children will play
And thank God I'm breathin' Don't take me soon
That we don't wanna fight no more
One day we'll all be free
One day this all will change
One Day

It's not about 4. ______________________, 'cause we all lose
When they feed on the souls of the innocent
Blood-drenched pavement
Keep on movin' though the waters stay ragin'
In this maze
You can lose your way, your way
It might drive you crazy but
Don't let it faze you, no way, no way!

I've been prayin' for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There'll be no more war
And our children will play

WHAT’S IN
Listening is one of the most important life skills you can have and develop. It
makes communication effective. Without one's ability to listen effectively, the
speaker cannot convey the message correctly. Listeners cannot easily understand
the message. It will come in handy if you master and harness your listening skills.
A student's ability to actively listen has a huge impact on building his/her
communication skills and a greater chance of attaining academic success.
Listen again to the lyrics of the song entitled One Day by Matisyahu. Dissect
the meaning of the song and answer the following questions:
1. In the first and second stanzas of the song, what does the speaker pray?
He prays that God does not let him die yet because he still has a
purpose, and that purpose is to help bring peace and unity to the
world. He also sings his heart out that one day there will be peace,
not war. Those children will get to play without worrying about bad
things.
2. What is the major point discussed in the third stanza of the song?
Even if there is war and there is a winner, no one wins in reality. Both
sides lose because people are killed.
3. What does he hope for in the seventh stanza?
That one day there will be no more violence and there will be freedom.
4. What piece of advice does the song give us?
War shouldn’t be the solution to our problems.
The song One Day lets us learn a thing or two about how to live a purpose-
driven life. And most especially about working and coming together to each other’s
aid. The song generally speaks of optimism, hope, solidarity, peace, freedom,
empowerment, and change. To bring forth change in a world filled with violence
and hate, we need to be united to attain peace. One day we will all be free from this
menace. These thoughts are reflected in the lines:
One day this all will change
Treat people the same
Stop with the violence
Down with the hate
One day we'll all be free
And proud to be
Under the same sun
Singing songs of freedom.

Inaugural Address
John F. Kennedy
Vice President Johnson, Mr. Speaker, Mr. Chief of Justice, President Eisenhower,
Vice President Nixon, President Truman, reverend clergy, fellow citizens, we observe
today not a victory of party, but a celebration of freedom. Symbolizing an end, as
well as a beginning. Signifying renewal, as well as a change. For I have sworn
before you and the Almighty God that the same solemn of oath of our forebears
prescribed nearly a century ago would be warranted.
The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to
abolish all forms of human poverty, and all forms of human life. And yet the same
revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought for are still at issue around the
globe. The belief that the rights of man come not from generosity, but of the state,
but from the hand of God.
We dare not forget today that we are heirs of the first revolution. That the word go
forth that this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been
passed to a new generation of Americans. And an unwilling to witness or permit the
slow undoing of these human rights to which this nation has been committed, and
to which are committed today at the home and around the world.
Let every nation know, whether its wish is well or ill, that we will pay any price,
bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order
to assure the survival and the success of our liberty. This much we pledge, and
much more.
To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the
loyalty of faithful friends. United there is a little we cannot do in a host of
cooperative ventures. Divided-- faithful friends, united there is little we cannot do--
there little we can do. For we dare not meet a powerful challenge at the odds and
split asunder.
To those new States who we welcome to the ranks of the free, we pledge our word
that one form of colonial control shall not have passed away merely to be replaced
by far more iron tyranny. We shall not always expect to find them supporting our
view. We will always hope to find them strongly supporting their own freedom. And
remember that, in the past, those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of
the tiger ended up inside.
To those peoples in huts and villages in the globe struggling to break the bonds of
mass misery, we pledge our best efforts to help them help themselves, for whatever
period is required. Not because of the Communists maybe doing it, not because we
seek their votes, but because it is right. It is a free society help the many who are
poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.
To our sisters republics of south of the border, we offer a special pledge to convert
our good words into good deeds, in a new alliance for progress, to assist free men
and free government in the casting off chains of poverty. But this peaceful
revolution of hope cannot become the prey of hostile powers. Let all neighbors
know that we shall join them to oppose aggression or subversion anywhere in the
Americas. And let every other power know that this Hemisphere intends to remain
the master of its own house.
NegOr_Q3_English9_Module3_v2
To that world assembly of sovereign states, the United Nations, our last best hope
in the age where the instruments of war have far outpaced the instruments of
peace, we renew our pledge of support. To prevent it from becoming merely a form
of invective, to strengthen its shield of new and weak, to enlarge the area in which
it’s writs may run.
Finally, to those nations who made themselves our adversaries, we offer not a
pledge, but a request. That both sides anew the quest of peace, before the dark
powers of destruction unleashed by science engulf all humanity in planned or
accidental self-destruction. We dare not tempt them weaknesses. For only we are
bonds are sufficient beyond doubt can we be a certain bond beyond doubt that we
will never be employed.
So let us begin anew, remembering on both sides, that civility is not a sign of
weakness, and sincerity is always--and I repeat always-- a subject to proof. Let us
never negotiate out of fear. But let us never fear to negotiate.
Let both sides explore the problems that unite, instead of belaboring those
problems which divide us. Let both sides, for the first time, formulate serious and
precise proposals for the inspection and control of arms. And bring the absolute
power to destroy other nations under the absolute control of all nations.
Let both sides seek to invoke the wonders of science instead of its terrors. Together
let us explore the stars, conquer the deserts, eradicate disease, tap ocean depths,
and encourage the arts and commerce. Let both sides unite to heed in all corner of
the earth to command of Isaiah to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the
oppressed go free.
If a beachhead of cooperation may push back the jungle of suspicion, that both
sides join in creating a new endeavor. Not a new balance of power, but a new world
of law, where the strong are just, and the weak secure, and the piece preserver. All
this will not be finished in the first 100 days. Nor will it be finished in the first
1,000 days. Nor in the life of this administration. Nor, even perhaps, in our lifetime
on this planet. But let us begin.
In your hands, my fellow citizens, more than mine, will rest final success or failure
of our course. Since this country was founded, each generation of Americans has
been summoned to give testimony to its national loyalty. The graves of young
Americans answered the call to service surround the globe.
Now the trumpet summons us again. Not as a call of bear arms, though arms we
need, not as a call to battle, though embattled we are. But a call to bear the burden
of a long twilight struggle, year in year out, rejoicing in a hope of patients in
tribulation. A struggle against common enemies of man, tyranny, poverty, disease,
and war itself. Can we forget these enemies a grand and global alliance, North and
South, East, West that can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind? Will you join
in historic effort?
In this long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role
of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this
responsibility, I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places
with any other people, or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion
which we bring to this endeavor light our country and all serve it. And the glow
from that fire can truly light the world.
NegOr_Q3_English9_Module3_v2
And do so, my fellow Americans, ask not what you can do for your country, ask
what you can do-- ask not what you can do for your country, ask what you can do
for your country. Fellow citizens of the world, ask what America will do for you, but
what together we can do for the freedom of man.
Finally, whether you are a citizen of America, or citizen of the world, ask us of the
same high standards of strength, sacrifice, which we ask of you. With a good
conscience our only sure reward, with the history the final judge of our deeds, let
us forth to lead land we love. Asking His blessing, His help, but knowing that here
on earth God's work must be truly your own. Thank you.

1. What are the common enemies of man? How do they affect a country and
her people?
Kennedy identified tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself as
the common enemies of man. To defeat these enemies, government
power would have to be expanded to form a “global alliance in North
and South, East and West,” so that mankind could enjoy a more
fruitful life.
2. In Kennedy’s word, what made him say that the world is very different now?
The world is very different now because man holds in his mortal
hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms
of human life. Thus, every man has the power to change the course of
his destiny.
3. Is the reasoning sound and logical? (Does one point follow from another?)
Are facts provided as evidence? If so, identify them.
Yes. Kennedy employs rhetorical devices that enhance his speech. It is
a technique that the author or speaker uses to convey to the listeners
or readers a meaning to persuade them to believe in his perspective.
The most memorable and forceful section of the speech was the latter
part when Kennedy convinced the Americans to commit themselves to
service and sacrifice: And so, my fellow Americans: Ask not what your
country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.
Finally, he continued by addressing the people around the globe: My
fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you, but
what together we can do for the freedom of man.
4. What does unity bring forth in a family, in a community, and in a country?
Unity can create strong bonds; that will result in a prosperous
and peaceful world. There is unity in diversity.
