generations to come need to respect each other and the planet, and care for the
community of life. One should never benefit from something now, which will eventually
have a problematic effect on future generations. A practical example is that of genetic
engineering. This technology opens up a new dimension for the world. It makes alteration
of DNA possible. The immediate effects are very positive as they, for example, can make a
plant produce more seeds and furthermore, no pests will feed on them. Yet, the downside
to all these will only be seen in the future. Once the structure of DNA is altered, it would be
impossible to change. Another negative impact that future beings will face is the fracture of
the feeding cycle. Therefore,it is essential for to protect one another,as all generations
interrelated,which means that what ever happens today speak about the relationship of the
present with past amd future generations.

A. The future is uncertain.
B. One has nothing to do with tha past.
C. One’s failure can never be recovered
D. What ever decision and action one does has an effect on the future.

 Task 5: TEXT TALK TIME!

Keesh is a brave kid considering that he is 13 years

old boy. Keesh’s family are known and respected
by people for they are born to be great hunters,
especially his father who died.
Bok. Keesh’s father is a brave man and was once
known as a great hunter. Keesh’s mother on the
other hand is a loving and caring one.

Keesh’s speech at the council is all about fair division of

meat to the people brought by the hunters in their
village and that, there must be no man or woman and
young or old that will cry because of hunger. He is
speaking about fair share of meat among people
regardless of his position and status.
He went to hunt for food just as he decided. He was
gone for 4 days. No, he succeeded on his hunting. He
brought home a meat of a mother polar bear with her
2 cubs.
His countrymen was finally convinced that he was a great
hunter like is late father when he decided to hunt alone
and after days he comes to the village bringing a huge

pronounced; “It is not he asked them to hold the meeting in his big igloo and so they did.
TASKIts
witchcraft. 6:headcraft”.
TRAVEL TIME They asked Keesh about the said witchcraft hunting and the boy
said it is head-craft.
STATION 1
In the story of keeh,these are his last words to
the council that maintained his dignity:
“ Its not for a boy like me to know about wishes
and I know nothing about them. I have devised a
way whereby I can kill the ice-bear withno
hassle, that’s all. It would be head-craft, not
witchcraft. After the confrontation, he further
explained and demonstrated the mystery of his
hunting skill.
 STATION 2
The author was pleased by the main hero that he
created. This can be justified by the way he described
Keesh as a great young hunter, as a brave young man,
and as a smart and dignified boy. On the other hand,
the author seemed to be unhappy towards his
countrymen. He described them as scornful, doubtful
and judgmental. Although he had these descriptions
towards Keesh's countrymen, he later described them
differently as they awed and recognized Keesh hunting
skills.

STATION 3
The author in The Story of Keesh used an english Old
style. This be seen in some lines of the story for
instance,the word “Thou” which means “you”. A
nother one is by using figurative language like “ The
anger boiled a white heat”.

STATION 4
The author wants us to be reminded that every
sacrifice should not be forgotten. This is an essential
truth that one should bear in mind. The fact that we
should appreciate every sacrifice of a person and that
we should not be judgement towards others is a
random realization int the story.

STATION 5
Good deeds should not be left forgotten. We should
learn how to appreciate one’s sacrifice and that we
should not judge other people base on what we see
and others tell. These are the moral values that we can
get from the story of keesh.

WRITING FIX 1A:

The genre of the story keesh is adventure fiction. The
CONTEXT story involves the scene which has some risk taking
momments. Also, there is a scene of hunting a beer
which is like keeping your life in danger and causing
harm to yourself.
 I think that the author is trying to accomplish the
AUTHOR’S real essence of equality in the story of keesh and
INTENTION how to make greater decisions based on the
limited options that we have.

For me the story of keesh is cool. Because his

The author uses repetition and metaphors to give

LITERARY DEVICES the reader a more vivid sense when approaching
the theme of the story: sacrifice. So, his purpose in
using those techniques is to make the reader really
live through his words, to make him/her feel the
situations described as if it was his/her own
experience.

And they finally found out the reason why Keesh

ENDING OF THE were so successful, is not about magic or anything.
STORY It’s because Keesh always readied some little round
ice balls made by bones and whale meat. When the
bear swallowed the ball, the bear would get sick and
Keesh could kill it easily. Because he used his brain
to hunt, he rose to power and became the chief of
his village and no one was left hungry again. Yes
indeed, Because he just give an evidence that he
was using the headcraft and not the witchcraft.

1. Why was the poem entitled “AUTUMN”? what ideas and/or feeling/s does the title
evoke?
-Sadness yet inspired.Because autumn is a season that all plants loss their leaves and
flowers,if you compare it to your life,there are always problems that make you down,but
always,the SPRING for your life wilp help you to restart again and continue leaving.

2. Autumn is described as in-between summer and winter. What things/events could best
represent these two seasons?
-Autumn falls between summer and winter. 
During summer season, temperature increases. Weather becomes warm. If the
temperature spikes too high, it brings heat waves or drought. Forest fires become more
frequent too. 
Winter season brings cold wind and chills living organisms. It brings cold rains and in other
areas ice in the form of snow. Leaves will fall and tree branches become bare. Animals
migrate to warmer weather and some change its appearance to adapt to the change in
temperature.
Autumn is the season where summer season dies down and winter season rise up.

3. How would you relate the title of the poem to what is happening now to the earth?
-Autumn is a kind of season in between summer and winter(after summer and before
winter) where trees are starting to lose their leaves. Many people are thinking that when
trees lose their leaves, it means they are starting to die. The same thing with our world
nowadays. Current events are getting worse. Crime, corruption, poverty, viral disease, wars,
and many others are being normal in our eyes. But this doesn't mean an end. Just like the
Autumn season, trees are losing their leaves but not their life primarily. We are now seeing
these awful things but this doesn't mean an end to us also. There is a spring season. And
there is a hope that we look forward to.

4. What do the following lines suggest?

A. That somewhere they’re nailing a coffin,in great haste.
B. Sweet beauty,but today all to me is bitter.
C. Yet, love me, tender heart! Be a mother,
Even to an ingrate, even to a scapegrace.

5. Did you realize that even nature has its own limits? How do you deal with this? Relate it
to real-life situations by sharing your own, personal experience/s.
-I always taught myself that even nature has its own limit. Sometimes in our lives we kept
on letting others to take advantage on us, but once we reached the point that you'll
realized that it's too much, you'll let yourself stay away from them. Like nature, if we keep
on cutting the trees in illegal way, disaster is the feedback into us. we can also relate it to
our natural mineral resources.

Make it Green
Ctto. Avani Desai (Nagarwadia)

Lives are crying, because it’s not clean,

Earth is dying, because it’s not green...

Earth is our dear Mother, don’t pollute it,

She gives us food and shelter, just salute it.
With global Warming, it’s in danger,
Let’s save it by becoming a strong ranger...

With dying treesand animals, it’s in sorrow,

Make green today and green tomorrow

With melting snow, one day it will sink,

How can we save it, just think...

Tree is precious, preserve it,

Water is a treasure, reserve it...

Grow more trees, make Mother Earth green,

Reduce pollution and make her a QUEEN…
