​What's In

Bea lives in the small barangay of Sta. Rita in the town of Oton. Everyday, she wakes up early to go to the farm and feed their family’s carabao. That day, after her morning routine, she decided to drop by her favorite spot by the pond . She sat down for a couple of minutes and talked to her reflection in thewater . Her nanay had once told about the diwata appearing in the water of the pond .

Anybody who talks to her refl ection by the water will see the diwata and can make a wish .

​ When Bea was about to open her mouth, a beautiful face appeared, surely not her own reflection. Because she wanted to prove that it was real, she rubbed her eyes again and again. To her dismay, when she looked at the water, the face suddenly disappeared.

Bea was disappointed for missing her chance to talk to the diwata. She went home as fast as she could and told her nanay about what happened.

​Refer to the underlined scenarios in the story.

​The following underlined phrases like she wakes up early to go to the farm and feed their family’s carabao, the pond, talked to her reflection in the water, and she rubbed her eyes again and again are scenarios that exist in real life.

People wake up early, those living at the farm usually feed their animals like carabao, we can see ponds anywhere, we can also talk to our reflection in the water, and lastly, we can rub our eyes again and again.

     These happenings can be witnessed by our eyes. However, the following underlined phrases like diwata appearing in the water of the pond, see the diwata and can make a wish, and the face suddenly disappeared are events that can never happen in real life.

        Have you ever seen a diwata? How do you think she looks like? Can a face just suddenly disappear?

      Answering these questions is difficult because the existence of a diwata and her granting people’s wish will never be real or true. It is a fantasy, a make believe and a non fact happening in our real world.

​ Real images are true; they are facts that can be proven. They can be experienced or witnessed by a person.

When identifying statements that express reality, one should look into things, ideas, and events based on real-life experience using the five senses (seeing, smelling, tasting, hearing, and feeling).

My grandmother is still alive at the age of 93.

Make-believe images have no existence; they are not true; they are in our imagination; they are non-fact and difficult to be proven. Make-believe images are created in our minds. They are exaggerated most of the time that is why they are unbelievable to happen.
