Learning Opportunity Directions: Write a précis and paraphrase to extract information from the given text. Travel has become the great Filipino dream. His constant vision is that of himself as a
tourist. Yet having left the Manila International Airport in a pink cloud of despedidas and
sampaguita garlands and pabilin, the dreams turns into a nightmare very quickly. But why?
Because the first bastion of the Filipino spirit was the palate. And in all the palaces and fleshoots
and skyscrapers of that magic world called "abroad" there is no patis to have.
The Filipino may denationalize himself but not his stomach. He may travel over the seven
seas and the five continents and the two hemispheres and lose the savor of home and forget his
identity and believe himself a citizen of the world. But he remains-the gastronomically, at least-
always a Filipino. For, if in no other way, the Filipino loves his country with his stomach.

the excerpt from chapter 2 of "animal farm", by george orwell that is an example of foreshadowing is "these three (snowball, napoleon, and squealer) had elaborated old major's teachings into a complete system of thought to which they gave the name of animalism." animal farm is an allegory of how czarist russia developed into communist russia with all its corruption. old major's teachings represent marx's theories turned into communism, animalism, by the three pigs. this foreshadows the oppression and corruption that will follow this revolt.

should you be the one doing this journal entry? it says "your special talent or skill". are you gonna lie 'bout your talent and make us fake a talent for you?

also this is a really easy journal entry, you can just think of a skill your good at and write did you work hard to become good at this skill (ex: drawing, writing, math, playing music, etc.) or does it come naturally (like a cool trick that you can do with your body). you can do all of that in 150 words. just try and think of a talent and even if your bad at this talent just say your working hard to become good at it.
