1. Complete these sentences about the different stages of a recount. Use the words in the box.


a.       The orientation stage of a recount orients the reader to the events in the story. It tells the reader who the story is about, where it happened and when the event occurred.
b. In the record of events stage, the writer retells the events in a logical time sequence so that the reader can follow them easily.
c.       In the re-orientation stage, the writer rounds of the story and brings the reader back to the reason why the story is being told.

2. Read again the text entitled Fishing’. How many events are there mentioned in the text? List them from the first to the last events.

3. Read again the text entitled ‘Ballooning’, and then answer these questions which are related to it:
a.       Who firstly made a balloon?
The Montgolfier brothers made a balloon firstly.
b.      When did people fly freely by balloon for the first time? And where?
The first free balloon flight was in December, 1783. The balloon flew for 25 minutes over Paris.
c.       What does ‘it’ in paragraph 1 refer to?
It refers to the first air transportation.
d.      There are two words ‘they’ in paragraph 1? Do they refer to the same thing?
Yes, they do. They refer to the same thing. That is balloon.
e.       How was the first balloon developed?
The first balloon was filled a very large paper bag with hot air. Hot air is lighter than cold air, so it goes up.
f.       What does ‘Flying a balloon is not like flying a plane’ mean in paragraph 4?
It means that the balloon has no engine and therefore no power of its own. The wind directs the balloon. It goes where the wind blows although Balloon also needs pilot to control it. But, flying plane is different. The plane has many features and has its own route. The plane’s engines are designed to move it forward at high speed and pilot can control and use the features for its purposes.
g.      Why didn’t people gradually like anymore to fly balloon?
They didn’t like to fly by balloon anymore because planes were much faster and easier to control.
h.      Why do some people still like to fly by balloon today?
Because when they high up in the balloon basket, they find quiet. They have a wonderful view of the world below.
i.        Why didn’t people stop flying by balloon although it was dangerous at the early days?
Because ballooning was exciting experience for them
j.         Summarize the texby making its outline!
§  The first kind of air transportation was a balloon.
§  The first real balloon flight was in France in 1783 made by two Frenchmen, the Montgolfier brothers
§  Balloon was built by a fire under the balloon to make the air hot.
§  The first free balloon flight was in December, 1783.
§  Balloonists tried longer flights of ballooning was the first long flight over water.
§  During the nineteenth century, ballooning became a popular sport.
  
4. Read each paragraph. Working in pairs, decide on the best topic. Be sure your topic is   
    not too general or too specificWrite the topic below the paragraph!
a.       Galileo Galilei was one of the first modern scientists. He was born in Pisa, Italy, in 1564. At first, he studied philosophy, but later he studied mathematics and astronomy. He was interested in the way the earth and other planets move around the sun. He found out several important facts about our world. He also started a new way of working in science. Before Galileo, scientists did not do experiments.  They just guessed about how something happened. Galileo was different. He did not just make guesses. He did experiments and watched to see what happened.
Topic: Galileo’s interest in science
b.      Galileo is famous for his study of how things fall. He was the first person to do experiments about this problem. Before, people thought that heavy things always fell faster than light things. He found out that this was not true. He took a heavy ball and a light ball and he dropped them both from a high place. They fell at the same speed. This meant that weight is not important. This is the law off falling bodies. It is an important law for understanding our world.
Topic: The thing made Galileo famous
c.       The life of a scientist was not always easy in the 1500s. For example, Galileo got into trouble because of his scientific ideas. His ideas were not the same as the religious ideas at the time. Many religious people did not agree with him. During his whole life he had to worry about this. He even went to prison for a while.  But no one could stop him from thinking. He continued to look for scientific answers to his questions about the world.
Topic: Galileo got into trouble because of his scientific ideas

5. Read this personal spoken recount by Tom Bass, a famous Australian sculptor. The recount tells us about a particular incident when Tom discovered his talent for carving. On the left, mark the stage of orientationrecord of eventsand reorientation.

Orientation
When I was 16 – that’d be in 1932 – my family lived in St Peters and it was a very slummy part of St Peters and it was right in the very heart of the depression and I’d realized I was an artist when I was 8 years old.
Record of Events
… one day my younger brother who was six or seven years younger than me who used to play on the rubbish tip of the local foundry just down at the end of the street came home with two pieces of what looked like stone.

It turned out that … that what he’d brought home was core-sand … that’s what they cast metal into and  the way they used to do it in those days – I don’t know if they do it now – but they used to mix the sand with linseed oil and that would hold it together and then the heat of the metal would fuse it all together … and it was dark and a beautiful color and you know to all intents and purposes it looked like stone and I had an impulse to try carving this because I’d been trying to do things of all kinds but mainly drawing and things like that and we only had an old hammer with broken handle and a funny old screwdriver and you know I started with these …
Reorientation
I found myself having this amazing experience and actually discovering I could carve. It just happened in that way.


6. In this recount, Tom has addeanother stage of explanation to the basic pattern. Use a highlighter pen to mark this stageWhy do you think Tom added this stage to the basic pattern?

He added carving to the basic pattern of the stone because he wanted to make it more beautiful.

7. Reread the orientation to Tom’s recount and write the words which tell you where and when the incident happened.
a. When                       : In 1932, when Tom was eight years old.
b. Where                      : In St. Peters

8. Number these events in Tom’s recount in the correct order:
a. I discovered that I could carve.
3
b. Iwaaamazing experience. 
4
c. I started to carve with an old hammer with a broken handle and a funny old 
   screw driver.
2
d. My younger brother brought home some core sand.

            My younger brother brought home some core sand. I started to carve with an old hammer with a broken handle and funny old screwdriver. I discovered that I could carve. It was an amazing experience.

 












But before the zoo worker arrived, a gorilla went over Thomas. It was Binti Jua, an eight-year mother gorilla. She had her baby gorilla on her back. With one “arm” she picked up the little boy. She carried him carefully over to a door, walking on three legs. There she put Thomas down so a zoo worker could get him.
            Janet and Kevin ran to the door, too. Thomas was badly hurt and had to go to the hospital, but after a few days he was better. The story was on the evening news in Chicago. Some people cheered and others cried when they heard it. But many of them thought about that mother gorilla and asked themselves, “What is she doing in a zoo? What is the difference between a gorilla and me?”
            A woman saw him and shouted, “Stop him!” A tall man reached up to get him, but it was too late. Thomas fell down the other side of the fence. He fell 18 feet onto the hard concrete floor. He lay very still, with blood on his head. Janet and Kevin shouted for help. People crowded around the fence, and someone ran to get a zoo worker.
            But three-year old boy are good climbers. While the Kempers were watching the gorillas, little Sally started to cry. Kevin took her from Janet, and Janet look in her bag for a bottle of juice. In those few seconds, Thomas climbed up the fence.
            The Kempers went straight to the gorilla exhibit. There were six adult gorillas and a three-moth old baby gorilla. In the Brookfield Zoo, the animals are not in cages. They are in large areas dug out of the ground. These areas have fences around them so the animals cannot get out and people cannot fall in.
It was a hot summer day in Chicago. The Kemper family decided it was a good day to go to the Brookfield Zoo. Janet and Kevin Kemper had two children: Thomas, 3, and Sally, 6 months. Thomas loved going to the zoo. He liked watching all the animals, but he especially loved the gorillas.



 
9. The stages of this written recount are not in the correct order. Number the stages and discuss why the order should be in that way. Mark the orientation, record events, and reorientation of the recount text.





















Here is the good arrangement of the text above and the generic structure of the text.
