STORY WRITING or NARRATIVE



STORY WRITING or NARRATIVE:

A story or narrative is narration of a set of fictitious events often used to convey a moral message. Write the story or narrative either in first person or in third person. Usually past tense is preferable in stories. Use some dialogues wherever necessary. (ఇవి కల్పిత కథలు. సందార్భానుసారంగా కథను past tense and third/first person లో రాస్తూ కొన్ని సార్లు పాత్రల సంభాషణలు కూడా రాయాల్సి ఉంటుది. ఎక్కువగా కథలు చదవడం వలన లాభం ఉంటుది.)
Format:

Introduction of characters: It is done through dialogues or narration.
Plot: Description of an event/accident/incident i.e., what is going to happen.
Climax: This is the end of the story must be most interesting and unpredictable.

Theme: What is the message or theme the writer is trying to communicate with the story or narrative.

Steps:
·         Set the context
·         Introduce characters
·         Develop plot(s)
·         Reach climax
·         End the story

Useful phrases:  
1.       ‘Once upon a time…’
2.       ‘It happened so…’
3.       ‘Long, long ago…’

E.g. 1.  Write a story or a narrative using the hints given under.
Hints: Two cats – quarrelling for a cake – went to a monkey – broke cake into two pieces – not equal – monkey – bites larger piece – It becomes small – bites another piece – ate piece by piece completely – cats go away disappointed.

FOOLS LOSE EVER
                Once upon a time there lived two foolish cats. Once they found a cake, which is round and hot. They started quarrelling for the cake. They failed to share it equally. So they went to a monkey to get the matter settled.
                The monkey was very clever and it wished to have the cake by making the two cats fool. It wanted to eat the whole cake. It intentionally divided the cake into two unequal parts. It bit the larger piece. It became very small. Then it bit the other piece saying that it was large. It happened many times.
The monkey ate all the cake piece by piece. Nothing of the cake was left for the cats. They became sad and went away disappointed.
E.g. 2. Write a narrative using the hints given below.
Hints: A small grey mouse – old and wise – lives in a large grey house – a black cat in the same house – mouse goes to kitchen – meets cat – cat happy – mouse agrees to go with cat for dinner – wants to put on red Sunday coat before going – cat agrees to wait – mouse runs into a hole – never comes back.

THE WISE MOUSE
                Long ago in a large grey house there lived a small grey mouse. It was old but wise. In the same house along with the mouse lived a black cat. The cat tried many a time to catch the mouse but failed to do that.
                One day the mouse went into the kitchen. Unfortunately it met with the cat. The cat felt happy. It thought of a good plan to catch the mouse to make its dream come true. It invited the mouse for dinner outside the house. The mouse accepted the invitation of the cat.

                The mouse had some thought before it went to the dinner. It predicted some danger from the cat. It asked the cat to wait until he put on Red Sunday coat. It crept into a hole. The foolish cat waited outside the hole. The mouse didn’t turn up.

DEBATE OR DISCUSSION



DEBATE OR DISCUSSION 

A debate or discussion is a kind of formal discussion, or an argument on a subject on which people have different opinion.  The main purpose of the debate is to show skills and ability of presenting in an argument either supporting or opposing the subject. (దీనిని తర్కము, చర్చ, వ్యాజ్యము అంటాము. ఇందులో ఏదో ఒక అంశముపై అనుకూలముగా కానీ లేదా వ్యతిరేకముగాగానీ వాదించవలసియుంటుంది.)  

Format:
·         Salutation: The debate starts with a salutation like ‘Respected chairperson, honorable judges and all present…’
·         Introduction: Introducing your support or oppose to the subject.  
·         Body: Actual subject of your debate as your views, facts, Illogicality of opponent’s argument, disproving the statement, questions etc.
·         Conclusion: It is the clarification of your stand made which side you are.

Useful phrases:
May I have your attention towards..…
I’d like to raise the argument ….
In my opinion………..
Nothing could be more illogical than …
I strongly believe that…….
I really believe that…
I strongly support that…
I would like to draw attention to…..
I am sorry! I fail to understand…….
I humbly submit that…….
May I ask you a question…….
I strongly oppose……..
I solemnly oppose that…..
On the contrary…….

E.g. 1. Write a debate opposing to “TV is bad for children.”

TV IS BAD FOR CHILDREN

                Respected Chairperson, honourable judges, teachers and all present …

                Many of you have agreed to the statement that is “TV is bad for children”. But I strongly oppose that statement. Because there are many things even the elders are learning through this visual media. If a parent makes his children to use the television in a proper way, they will learn a lot. For instance if you take some kind of quiz programs, they might be encouraged themselves towards acquiring general knowledge. Children can imitate many actors and actress with their dialogues so that they may enhance their speaking and listening ability. If the children are allowed to watch some programs which are designed only for them as CN, NGC etc., they make themselves better learners. Nowadays children are acquiring the knowledge of the ancient culture and history of their own country and others as well by such programs. They have been educated to the contemporary issues by the televisions and internet only.
               
Hence I quietly oppose that “TV is bad for children” and I request one and all to make the children watch the organized programs for their better future.
Thank you.

E.g. 2 Write a debate supporting to “Home task is needed.”
Is home task needed?
Respected Chairperson, honourable judges, teachers and all present …
            In my opinion homework should only be unfinished classwork. This then assures that everyone in the class is at the same point when the next lesson starts. This also makes it less likely the student will encounter anything that has not been covered already in the class so reducing the chance of having problems completing the assignment.

On the other hand a complete ban on homework would mean that there is not a possibility of time for low proficiency students to catch up with the work of their peers. So that they get further and further behind. The alternative is having the faster ones either doing more or doing nothing neither of which is a good option.
Hence I would like to say that there would be some home task but it should not be burden to them and would be a different for low proficiency students.
Thanking you one and all.
