Assignment: Paragraphs of Various Forms
Quoting: 
An argument:
The purpose for reading also determines the appropriate approach to reading comprehension. A person who needs to know whether she can afford to eat at a particular restaurant needs to comprehend the pricing information provided on the menu, but does not need to recognize the name of every appetizer listed. A person reading poetry for enjoyment needs to recognize the words the poet uses and the ways they are put together, but does not need to identify main idea and supporting details. However, a person using a scientific article to support an opinion needs to know the vocabulary that is used, understand the facts and cause-effect sequences that are presented, and recognize ideas that are presented as hypotheses and givens.

A narration:
Once there were two brothers of one mother and one father; Anpu was the name of the elder, and Bata was the name of the younger. Now, as for Anpu he had a house, and he had a wife. But his little brother was to him as it were a son; he it was who made for hi his clothes; he it was who followed behind his oxen to the fields; he it was who did the plowing; he it was who harvested the corn; he it was who did for him all the matters that were in the field. Behold his younger brother grew to be an excellent worker, there was not his equal in the whole land; behold the spirit of a god was in him.

Assignment: Paragraphs of Various Forms
Quoting: 
An argument:
 	The communicative approach to language teaching has given instructors a different understanding of the role of reading in the language classroom and the types of texts that can be used in instruction. When the goal of instruction is communicative competence, everyday materials such as train schedules, newspaper articles, and travel and tourism Web sites become appropriate classroom materials, because reading them is one way communicative competence is developed. Instruction in reading and reading practice thus become essential parts of language teaching at every level. 
(BETTERMENT IN TEACHING READING by CALTON GEORGE)
An exposition:
Traditionally, the purpose of learning to read in a language has been to have access to the literature written in that language. In language instruction, reading materials have traditionally been chosen from literary texts that represent "higher" forms of culture. Reading is an activity with a purpose. A person may read in order to gain information or verify existing knowledge, or in order to critique a writer's ideas or writing style. A person may also read for enjoyment, or to enhance knowledge of the language being read. The purpose(s) for reading guide the reader's selection of texts.
(WHAT READING IS by GRAHAM LINCOLN)
A narration:
When Lincoln was younger, he liked to go to school more than anything. He used to study every day and tried even harder when preparing for exams. In class, he listened attentively to lectures and answered his teachers’ questions perfectly. That was why he often performed well in exams and appeared in the list of “Top 10 Students” of the school. He was much better at learning languages than any other subjects. At the age of fifteen, he could speak two foreign languages, English and French, quite fluently. His dream was to become a successful diplomat. Unfortunately, his father died in a car accident when he was a first-year student at university. He had to quit school to help his mother take care of the family. Nevertheless, he continued studying by herself and tried her best to graduate from the Institute of International Relations at the age of 30. He is now working for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He says : “the more I try, the more I see the meaning of life”.

(TEACHING ENLISH SKILLS by CORDELL PATRIK)
An exposition:
The purpose(s) for reading and the type of text determine the specific knowledge, skills, and strategies that readers need to apply to achieve comprehension. Reading comprehension is thus much more than decoding. Reading comprehension results when the reader knows which skills and strategies are appropriate for the type of text, and understands how to apply them to accomplish the reading purpose.

A narration:
Organized soccer games began in 1863. In soccer, two teams of eleven players try to kick or head the ball into the goal of the other team. The goal keeper, who tries to keep the ball out of the goal, is the only player on the field who can touch the ball with his or her hands. The other players must use their feet, heads, and bodies to control the ball. Every four years, soccer teams around the world compete for the World Cup. The World Cup competition started in 1930. Brazil is the home of many great soccer players, including the most famous player of all, Pele. With his fast dazzling speed, Pele played for many years in Brazil and then later in New York.

(STRATEGIES FOR TEACHING READING by PAT D. CORDERO)
An exposition:
Reading is an interactive process that goes on between the reader and the text, resulting in comprehension. The text presents letters, words, sentences, and paragraphs that encode meaning. The reader uses knowledge, skills, and strategies to determine what that meaning is. 
Reader knowledge, skills, and strategies include 
Linguistic competence: the ability to recognize the elements of the writing system; knowledge of vocabulary; knowledge of how words are structured into sentences.
Discourse competence: knowledge of discourse markers and how they connect parts of the text to one another.
Sociolinguistic competence: knowledge about different types of texts and their usual structure and content.
Strategic competence: the ability to use top-down strategies (see Strategies for Developing Reading Skills for descriptions), as well as knowledge of the language (a bottom-up strategy)

A narration:
In general, it is not difficult to learn to use Internet services. But although Internet services are rather easy to use, you will have considerable difficulties if you are not familiar with English. In fact, knowledge of English is one of the most important aspects that help you use the Internet. Learning to use a new Internet service may take a few hours, a few days, or some weeks, but it takes years to learn a language so that you can use it fluently and confidently. Of course, when you know some English, you can learn more just by using it on the Internet. But at least your English should be good enough to understand commonly used words and to know what to do on the Internet
