Discussion
The Tale of the Woodcutter and the Tiger
Korean folklore recalls the tale of a woodcutter who encounters a tiger in the woods. Fearing
that he would soon be the tiger‘s dinner, he exclaimed: ―You must be my long lost brother!
Our mother cried for you when you left home. She had dinner ready for you every night, waiting
for your return. Sadly, out mother has just passed away. How happy she would have been had
she known you are alive and well!‖ The woodcutter took out his handkerchief and pretended to
wipe at his eyes. The tiger turned away, as tears fell down his cheeks, leaving the woodcutter
unharmed.
Every year thereafter, on Chesa, the memorial day of the woodcutter‘s mother‘s death, an
offering appeared on her grave - sometimes a peasant, or even his mother‘s favorite
mountain berries. The woodcutter did not know where these offerings came from. One year,
the woodcutter noticed that the customary offering had not been placed on his mother‘s grave,
and he wondered what had happened. Out from the bush, three baby tigers appeared,
carrying offerings. They approached the woodcutter and cried: ―You must
be our uncle! Mother tiger is gone now, and we know how important it is for her to honor
grandmother by bringing an offering to her Chesa table beside her grave. We are here to bring
offerings for our grandmother in loving memory of our mother.‖ The woodcutter noticed that his
face had turned suddenly warm and realized that it was his own tears streaming down his cheeks.
Analysis:
The learners will discuss the details of the story by telling the parts where the
elements of the short story arise and will be guided by the questions below.
1. Identify the characters in the story. What roles do the characters play in the tale?
What are the characteristics of these characters that you admire/don’t admire?
2. What particular event or circumstance in the story has contributed to the Tiger’s
way of looking at things in a different way? How has this new way of looking at
things being passed on to the next generation?
3. What kind of conflict led the woodcutter to ―fool‖ the tiger? What would be your
own way of saving yourself from danger?
4. What would you do if that sense of duty and shared destiny passed on to you is
in conflict with your own principles and beliefs in life?
5. Could this tale be used as basis for you to have a glimpse of how the
Koreans at present are coping with the challenges of modernity? Explain.

TRAFFIC REMEDIES
In commentaries on and analyses of the horrendous traffic gripping Metro
Manila, the government can find not just a few short-term solutions to ease the problem.
True, the remedy is the development of an efficient mass transportation system, specifically
a network of elevated and street-level railways like the MRT and
LRT lines. But while the government and the private sector work on this long-term solution,
a lot can be done today to address the traffic woes. And a lot of the shortterm remedies
have to do with driver discipline, starting with staying in the right lane and following the
―yellow box‖ scheme.
Often one will see cars swerving or crossing many lanes because they had to go
up a flyover or down a tunnel, in the process slowing the flow of traffic. On the other hand,
that big yellow-painted box covering an entire intersection with a huge ―X‖ inside is the
most effective way to keep vehicles flowing, especially in the crisscrossing streets of the
central business districts in Makati, Ortigas and BGC. The concept is for a driver to stay
clear of the yellow box. In short, his or her vehicle should not be inside that box when the
traffic light turns red.
While drivers are being made familiar with the yellow-box concept, there is a need to
redeploy traffic enforcers. In some stretches like Chino Roces Avenue in Makati, every
intersection is manned by an enforcer or two during rush hours. But the problem in other
areas is that not all intersections are manned, resulting in a gridlock in those unmanned
intersections because drivers simply ignore the yellow box. Definitely, not all traffic
enforcers are deployed efficiently. Big groups of them sometimes stay in a single area like
Megamall in Mandaluyong, yet no one is visible at the other side of the EdsaShaw tunnel
where unruly bus drivers occupy lanes outside their designated lanes, in the process
blocking the flow of traffic.
The network of side streets is a viable alternative to major thoroughfares like Edsa,
Quezon Avenue and C5, but take the traffic navigation app Waze from Quezon City to
Makati and it will take you through the side streets of five cities, with nearly all of them
made narrower by illegally parked vehicles.
Other short-term solutions involve the reduction of vehicles on the roads at peak
hours of the day. The bulk of working people hit the road to be in their offices at 8 or 9
a.m.— thus the horrible traffic from as early as 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. The same is true in the
afternoon, when the bulk of those workers knock off from work at 5 or 6 p.m., causing
traffic bottlenecks sometimes up to 9 p.m.
There should be an effort to shorten the workweek for some companies, or even
government offices, and extend the working hours to 10 hours a day to compensate for the lost
one workday. Or office hours can be staggered: Some companies can start at 10-11 a.m. and let
employees leave at 7-8 p.m. Again, incentives to companies adopting these schemes will be a
nice come-on. Better yet, some companies should promote working at home or in places near
their workers ‘residences. Many employees need not be in the office every single day of the week,
and many types of work can be done at home, especially in this digit al age. The government can
also think of providing incentives to companies that have a well-developed system for their
employees to work outside the office, preferably in their homes.
Carpooling is yet another short-term solution. The government can dedicate TRAFFIC
REMEDIES one lane on Edsa—similar to what was done during the Apec meetings here last
year—for vehicles with three or more passengers.
Our traffic situation has gone from bad to worse and has become notorious globally. Last year,
Waze did a survey on the driving experience of 50 million users in 32 countries,and came up with
the world‘s first ―Driver Satisfaction Index.‖ The results: The Philippines was the world‘s third-
worst place to drive in, and Metro Manila had the worst traffic and the longest commute time. This
year, the Philippines is the second-worst place to drive in after El Salvador, and Cebu City is
ranked lowest among 186 cities included in the survey. Interestingly, Metro Manila moved up from
last spot in 2015 to 147th.
There are doable suggestions to immediately alleviate the traffic nightmare in the
metropolis, and hopefully improve our rankings in the next survey.

Task 2: Underline the problem and encircle the solutions presented in the
Weightlessness in Spaceparagraph below.
Analysis
Read this paragraph and see how the signal words were applied.
Astronauts face many problems in space caused by weightlessness. One of these
problems is floating around the cabin. To solve this problem, astronauts wear shoes
that are coated with a special adhesive. This adhesive sticks to the floor of the cabin.
Serving food is another problem. It won't stay put on the table! Experts solved this
problem by putting food and drinks in pouches and tubes. It only needs to be mixed
with water. Weightlessness also causes problems when an astronaut tries to work. The
simple task of turning a wrench or a doorknob can be difficult. Since there is no
gravity to keep him down, when he exerts a force in one direction, the opposite
force may flip him over completely. To solve this problem, he must be very careful
about how much force he uses to do these simple tasks. Here on earth, life is much
simpler, thanks to gravity.
