Situation 2 – below is an excerpt from John F.
Kennedy’s “Inaugural Address.” Read the excerpt
and answer the questions that follows
In your hands, my fellow citizens, more than mine,
will rest the final success or failure of our course.
Since this country as founded, each generation of
Americas has been summoned to give testimony to
its national loyalty. The graves of young Americans
into answered the call to service surround the
globe.
Now the trumpet summons us again-not as a call to
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 and
year out, “rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation,” a
struggle against the common enemies of many
tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself.
Can we forge against these enemies a grand and
global alliance, North and South, East and West,
that can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind?
Will you join me in this historic effort?
In the long history of the world, only a few
generations have been granted the role of
defending freedoms in its hour of maximum danger.
I do not shrink responsibility; I welcome it. I do not
believe that any of us would exchange places with
any other people with any other people or any other
generation. The energy, the faith, the devotions
which we bring to this endeavor will light our
country and all who serve it, and the glow from that
fire can truly light the world.
And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your
country can do for you; ask what you can do for
your country.
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.

beginnings. Elvis Aaron Presley was born on
January 8, 1935 in Tupelo, Mississippi. He first

guitar, but he never learned to read music. By

graduated from high school. And enrolled in night
school to become an electrician. That year, at Sun
Records, Presley recorded a personal record for his
mother, a song that was heard by the company’s

out in 1954.
He toured the South, and in 1955 five of his record
were released simultaneously. His first national

Gleason’s “The Stage Show.” But Presley became
known for his appearance on “The Ed Sullivan
Show,” where young singer gyrated as he sang
“rock n’ roll” music. During the live television

the waist up because his motions were considered
obscene.

contract. The movie critics were not always kind,
but teenagers flocked to Presley’s films. Within a
few short years, Presley had established a career

Monster, crawling the carpets of the world,
Still send from underground against your blades
The roots of things battalions greens and curled
And tender, that will match your blades with blades
Till the revolted throats shall strangle on
The tickle of their dead, till straws shall break
Crankshafts like camels, and the sun go down
On dinosaurs in swamps. And night attack
Follows and by the time the Sabbath dawns
All armored beasts are eaten by their lawns.

MGA TEORYA NG PINAGMULAN NG WIKA
Filipino
Page | 49
TEORYANG BOW -WOW Ginagaya nila ang tunog
na nililikha ng mga hayop gaya ng tahol ng aso,
tilaok ng manok at huni ng ibon. Ginagaya naman
daw ng tao ang tunog ng kalikasan at paligid gaya
ng ihip ng hangin, patak ng ulan at langitngit ng
kawayan.
TEORYANG DING DONG Lahat ng bagay may
sariling tunog na siyang kumakatawan sa bawat isa
at ang tunog niyon ang siyang ginagad ng mga
sinaunang tao na kalauna’y nagpabago-bago at
nilapatan ng iba’t ibang kahulugan.
TEORYANG DING DONG May sariling tunog na
kumakatawan sa lahat ng bagay sa kapaligiran.
Tinawag din ito ni Max Muller na simbolismo ng
tunog. Halimbawa: tsug- tsug ng tren, tik- tak ng
orasan.
TEORYANG POOH -POOH Nakalilikha ng tunog
sanhi ng bugso ng damdamin. Gamit ang bibig,
napabubulalas ang mga tunog ng pagdaing na dala
ng takot, lungkot, galit, saya at paglalaan ng lakas.
TEORYANG TA-RA-RA- BOOM DE AY- Ang wika
ng tao ay nag –ugat sa mga tunog na kanilang
nilikha sa mga ritwal na kalauna’y nagpapabagu-
bago at nilapatan ng iba’t ibang kahulugan.
Halimbawa: pagsayaw, pagsigaw at incantation o
mga bulong na ginagawa tuwing makikidigma,
pagtatanim at iba pa.
TEORYANG SING-SONG- Iminungkahi ng
linggwistang si Jesperson na ang wika ay nagmula
sa paglalaro, pagtawa, pagbulong sa sarili,
panliligaw at iba pang mga bulalas- emosyunal.
Iminungkahi pa niya na taliwas sa iba pang teorya,
ang mga unang salita ay sadyang mahahaba at
musikal, at hindi maiikling bulalas na
pinaniniwalaan ng marami.
TORE NG BABEL Teoryang nahalaw mula sa
Banal na Kasulatan. Nagkaroon ng panahon
kungsaan ang wika ay iisa lamang. Napag-isipang
magtayo ng isang tore upang hindi na
magkawatak-watak at nang mahigitan ang
Panginoon. Nang malaman ito ng Panginoon,
bumababa Siya at sinira ng tore. Nang nawasak na
ang tore, nagkawatak-watak na ang tao dahil iba-
iba na ang wikang kanilang binibigkas kaya
nagkanya-kanya na sila at kumalat sa mundo.
RANDOM
TEORYANG YOO HE YO- Pinaniniwalaan ng ninuno. Maaari raw kasing noo’y tinatawag ng
linggwistang si A.S Diamond (2003) na ang tao ay mga unang tao ang mga hayop sa pamamagitan ng
natutong magsalita bunga diumano ng kanyang mga mahikal na tunog na kalaunan ay naging
puwersang pisikal. pangalan ng bawat hayop.

TEORYANG TA -TA Ayon sa teoryang ito, ang
kumpas o galaw ng kamay ng tao na kanyang
ginagawa sa bawat partikular na okasyon ay ginaya
ng dila at naging sanhi ng pagkatuto ng taong
lumikha ng tunog at kalauna’y nagsalita. Tinatawag
itong ta-tana sa wikang Pranses ay
nangangahulugang paalam o goodbye sapagkat
kapag ang isang tao nga namang nagpapaalam ay
kumakampay ang kamay nang pababa at pataas
katulad ng pagbaba at pagtaas na galaw ng dila
kapag binibigkas ang salitang ta-ta.
Teoryang Eureka! Sadyang inimbento/nilikha
ang wika ayon sa teoryang ito ayon kay (Boeree,
2003). Maaari raw na ang ating mga ninuno ay
may ideya ng pagtatakda ng mga arbitraryong
tunog upang ipakahulugan sa mga tiyak na
bagay. Nang ang mga ideyang iyon ay nalikha,
mabilis na iyong kumalat sa iba pang tao at naging
kalakaran sa pagpapangalan ng mga bagay-
bagay.

Teoryang Mama - Nagmula ang wika sa mga

pinakamadadaling pantig ng pinakamahahalagang
bagay. Pansinin nga naman ang mga bata. Sa
una’ y hindi niya masasabi ang salitang mother
ngunit dahil ang unang pantig ng nasabing salita
ang pinakamahalaga diumano, una niyang
nasasabi ang mama bilang panumbas sa salitang
mother.

Teoryang Hey you - Iminungkahi ng linggwistang

si Revesz na bunga ng interpersonal na kontak ng
tao sa kanyang kapwa tao ang wika. Ayon kay
Revesz, nagmula ang wika sa mga tunog na
nagbabadya ng pagkakakilanlan (Ako!) at
pagkakabilang (Tayo!). Napapabulalas din tayo
bilang pagbabadya ng takot, galit o sakit (Saklolo!).
Tinatawag din itong teoryang kontak.

Teoryang Coo Coo - Ang wika ay nagmula sa mga

tunog na nalilikha ng mga sanggol. Ang mga tunog
daw na ito ang ginaya ng mga matatanda bilang
pagpapangalan sa mga bagay- bagay sa paligid,
taliwas sa paniniwala ng marami na ang mga bata
ang nanggagaya ng tunog ng mga matatanda.

Teoryang Babble Lucky - Ang wika raw ay

nagmula sa mga walang kahulugang bulalas ng
tao. Sa pagbubulalas ng tao, sinuwerte lamang
daw siya nang ang mga hindi sinasadya at walang
kabuluhang tunog na kanyang nalikha ay naiugnay
sa mga bagay-bagay sa paligid na kalaunan ay
naging pangalan ng mga iyon.

Teoryang Hocus Pocus - Ayon kay Boeree

(2003), maaaring ang pinanggalingan ng wika ay
tulad ng pinanggalingan ng mga mahikal o
relihiyosong aspeto ng pamumuhay ng ating mga

Famous Scientists
Archimedes of Syracuse (287 - 212
BC)
Due to the fact that Archimedes was
a person with multiple interests,
including math, physics, astronomy
and engineering, he managed to
become a successful inventor. He
became famous for his innovative
thinking and was the one to come up
with a lot of innovative machines,
including the Archimedes screw that
is still used today to pump liquids,
coal, grain and more. But probably
his most famous discovery is the way
of finding the volume of objects that
have an irregular shape. It is worth
mentioning that most of his works
were meant to help his home city.
Leonardo Da Vinci (1452 - 1519)
Leonardo Da Vinci was a great
inventor, being fond of engineering,
astronomy, aeronautics, mathematics
and more. His drawings include a
number of various inventions, the
basics of which more or less can be
found in different technologies today.
Da Vinci is considered to be the
father of modern science. Some of
his most important inventions include
the hydraulic machine, the boat and
design of a flying machine.
Evangelista Torricelli (1608-1647)
The famous Italian physicist and
mathematician is the author of the
barometer (scientific tool used in the
field of meteorology to estimate
atmospheric pressure), built in 1643.
It would be interesting to note that a
Page | 84
number of Italian Navy submarines
were named after the inventor.
Ferdinand Verbiest (1623 - 1688)
Verbiest was an astronomer and a
mathematician. He was the one to
invent the world's first automobile.
The inventor came up with the idea to
create an automobile while visiting
China as a missionary. His
automobile was powered by steam,

principle and the starting point of the
mechanized personal transport.
Louis Pasteur (1822-1895)
The famous French chemist and
microbiologist was the one who has

instantly. Pasteurization is used today
to slow the development of
microorganisms in food.
Levi Strauss (1829 - 1902)

are telegraph devices, phonograph,
carbon transmitter, direct current
generator, universal electric motor,
and more.
Emile Berliner (1851 - 1929)
The German-born Jewish American
scientist became known thanks to his
disc record gramophone (in the
United States known as phonograph
Page | 85
or record player). Used for recording
and reproducing sounds on a
gramophone record, vinyl record, the
device (with certain modifications
made once in a while) was popular
until 1980s.
Alexander Graham Bell (1857 - 1922)
During the experiments he carried out
with the telegraph, Bell came up with
the idea of the telephone.
The inventor of one of the most
popular devices today thought that
the telephone was intruding, which is
why he did not have one in his
workplace.
Rudlf Christian Karl Diesel (1858 -
last seen alive 1913)

infected.
The discovery of penicillin managed
to significantly boost the evolution of
medicine industry.
Fritz Pfleumer (1881 - 1945)
The German-Austrian engineer is the
author of the magnetic tape used for
recording sound. Pfleumer decided to
grant the right of use to the AEG, a
