GUIDED WRITING
Sentence Combination
Reference version:
One reason why the family unit is crumbling is
that parents have relinquished their authority
over children. The permissive school of
thought says
wants to, no matter what it is,
don't warp his personality, don't thwart him,
otherwise you will ruin
him for life
their
elders. Children always push to see how much they
can get away with; if you give them
nothing to
push against, there are no moral limits, no moral
convictions will develop in the
children. We
have this in the schools – children have much less
respect for their teachers
nowadays.
Respect doesn't mean that when someone in
authority says you jump--that's the
military
approach. Speaking of young people today, if they
have an opinion that's different from
yours,
then you' re the fool and they' re right, even if
they don't have enough experience to judge.

old-
fashioned computer all day long.
5. In case
you fail to get into the central database, you can
call our Technical Support
Service Department

6. A language has a limited number
of prepositions and articles, but its nouns and
verbs

B. Reference version:
In this electronic age, information grows
at a phenomenal speed. Some knowledge of
computer network is required of an average
person. With a computer that is equipped with a
mouse and a modem, you can get information
unencumbered by time or space. All you need to do
is turn on your computer and log it on to the
lnternet. Launch a search engine and you find
nearly
anything online. As a matter of fact,
you have access to all the information that is
non-proprietary
and free. The
World Wide
Web has made the world no more than a global
village. You can easily keep track of
the news
and current events around the world, and order
what you need by e-mail. What if you are
lnternet illiterate and know nothing about
such things as Hyper Text Transfer Protocol.'?
It's
simple: you take a computer lesson and
learn about the lingua franca of this age. You
know, life
on the lnternet is not at all a
life of dreary and tedious work, but a life full
of excitement and new
discovery.

Paragraph dictation (8 sentences)
A
computer does not think, at least not in the most
widely accepted sense of the word; it does
only what it is told and it does exactly what
it is told. If given faulty instructions or
incorrect data,
it produces faulty results.
The mistakes that sometimes occur are almost
always the fault of the
people who work with
the computer, not of the computer itself. When the
proper safeguards are
applied, even a
malfunctioning computer will not produce incorrect
results; it will, instead, signal
the operator
that something is wrong. Although a computer does
not think, it does make
decisions. Each
decision is based on a logical pattern previously
stored in the computer. It
makes a decision by
following instructions such as “If the number you
are reading is 10 or less,
proceed to the next
step. If it is greater than 10, skip the next
step.” In making decisions, the
computer uses
the processes of logic. A computer can also retain
information — that is,
“remember”—and is thus
capable of learning.
