What’s In
Reading is part of our daily living. For different reasons and purposes
people read. For some, reading gives them an opportunity to gain new
knowledge and to develop one’s critical thinking and reasoning. It is very
important and great advantage if you comprehend well and able to get
necessary information about what you read, especially for a student like
you. But reading does not only happen in writing or printed letters/words.
Reading can be done through using various symbols, graphs and
illustrations too.
Let us see on how well you can read the following
pictures/illustrations to uncover the meanings they convey.
Task 1: Read me If you can!
Directions: Each picture/box represents phrases. Identify the phrases that
graphically presented in each square.

Processing Questions:
1. How did you arrive with your answer from each block?
2. What helps you get the meaning of a given text/ illustration?
3. How did the letters/words and illustrations help you arrived on the
answer in each box?
Congratulations for getting the correct answers. Now, let us continue
learning. Let me tell you more about illustrations and graphs and they will
help you understand better the text you read.

Reading Text
You will be reading one of the best Greek Mythological stories. Witness
how a simple boy with a misfortune past became the hero and saved his
land.
Summary: The Gorgon’s Head
Acrisius, King of Argos received a dreadful oracle from Delphi.
According to the priestess of Delphi, he will not have a son but a grandson
from whose hands he will be killed.
Frightened, King Acrisius hid his only daughter Danae from the
sight of all men. Danae was locked up inside a house of bronze sunk
underground.
Zeus entered into the underground chamber in the form of the
shower of gold through the roof partly opened. He appeared in front of
Danae and in an instant Danae conceived a baby.
Later, Danae had given birth to a boy named Perseus. She kept her
baby a secret from her own father. But days have come and King Acrisius
12
learned about her secret.
The King ordered his people to have a chest built for Danae and
child Perseus.
Danae and her child were put inside the chest and sent adrift the
sea. It bobbed in the waves until it reached the Island of Seraphos where a
fisherman named Dictys noticed the chest and took it.
When he opened, he saw Danae and Perseus. The kind Dictys let
them in their house to live together with his wife.
Dictys’ brother, King Polydectes was captivated with Danae’s beauty
and married her. Polydectes felt jealous over the love that Danae was
giving to Perseus. To get rid of Perseus, Polydectes sent him to a
dangerous adventure that put his life in peril.
The mission was to kill Medusa, one of the three Gorgons. She has
snaky hair and metal-scaled skin. Looking straight in Medusa’s eye can
turn mortals into stone.
Despite the danger, Perseus agreed to embark on the adventure in
order to get his own name a glory. Hermes gave him a sword. He was also
given a shield by Athena. Hermes added that Perseus needed also the
winged sandals, the helmet of invisibility, and the magic wallet. Those
three essential things were all in the possession of the Nymphs of the
North.
Getting there was not easy. In order to get to the Nymphs of the
North, Perseus has to go first to the Gray Women who only could tell the
direction.
Perseus went to the Gray women, he snatched the eye of the
women and threatened not to return it unless they give him the direction
pointing to the Nymphs of the North.
As soon as the direction was given, Perseus headed to the Island of
Gorgons. He was instructed by Athena, telling him that Medusa was the
one lying closest to the seashore. With one swift of his sword and with the
help of his shield as mirror, Medusa was beheaded and her head was put
inside the magic wallet.
While Perseus was making his way back home, he noticed a
beautiful lady chained on the cliff. He asked her name and why she was
hanged. No reply was given by the lady. Perseus insisted the lady to
respond. She said her name was Andromeda, daughter of Ethiopian King
Cepheus and Queen Cassiopeia. Andromeda told Perseus that her mother
boasted that she was the most beautiful than 50 lovely daughters of
Nereus.
As a revenge to her mother Cassiopeia, Andromeda suffered the
13
punishment. At any moment, then, the serpent was on its way to devour
Andromeda. Perseus told Andromeda’s parents that he would save their
daughter on a condition that they will allow him to marry her.
The king and queen agreed at once and Andromeda was saved from
death. He took Andromeda to his homeland.
At that time, a discus-throw competition was going on at Larissa.
Perseus joined in and when it was his turn to throw the discus, he threw it
mightily and accidentally hit an old man in the audience.
It was learned that his grandfather, King Acrisius, was the one hit
by the discuss.

What I Can Do
Read for a Cause!
Read the article lifted from, “Smoking and Alcohol: Double trouble for
the brain?”. Afterwards, identify the cause and effect by filling out the
organizer that follows.
According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism,
many people who smoke tobacco also drink alcohol excessively, and vice
versa. Therefore, studying the combined effects of the two drugs on the
central nervous system could yield valuable insights. But most previous
20
studies have examined the consequences of one or the other in isolation.
That's why Alana Hansen and colleagues wanted to find out how drinking
and smoking together affect regions of the rat brain involved in drug
addiction.
The researchers treated rats with alcohol, tobacco smoke or both twice
a day for 28 days and then compared their brains with control animals that
didn't receive either substance. They found that the combined alcohol and
smoking treatment increased the level of reactive oxygen species in the
hippocampus compared with control animals or rats given tobacco smoke
alone. In all of the brain areas studied, combined alcohol and smoking
increased the levels of specific pro-inflammatory cytokines more than either
treatment alone. And in the striatum and frontal cortex, rats with both
treatments showed lower levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, a
growth factor that helps existing neurons survive and stimulates the growth
of new ones. These results suggest that alcoholics who smoke could be at
additional risk for neural damage, the researchers say.
