 Obama: ‘There Were No Winners In This’ Government Shutdown

Hi everybody. This week, because Democrats and responsible Republicans came

together, the government was reopened, and the threat of default was removed
from our economy.

There’s been a lot of discussion lately of the politics of this shutdown. But the truth
is, there were no winners in this. At a time when our economy needs more growth
and more jobs, the manufactured crises of these last few weeks actually harmed
jobs and growth. And it’s understandable that your frustration with what goes on in
Washington has never been higher.

The way business is done in Washington has to change. Now that these clouds of
crisis and uncertainty have lifted, we need to focus on what the majority of
Americans sent us here to do – grow the economy, create good jobs, strengthen
the middle class, lay the foundation for broad-based prosperity, and get our fiscal
house in order for the long haul.

It won’t be easy. But we can make progress. Specifically, there are three places
where I believe that Democrats and Republicans can work together right away.

First, we should sit down and pursue a balanced approach to a responsible

budget, one that grows our economy faster and shrinks our long-term deficits
further. There is no choice between growth and fiscal responsibility – we need
both. So we’re making a serious mistake if a budget doesn’t focus on what you’re
focused on: creating more good jobs that pay better wages. If we’re going to free
up resources for the things that help us grow – education, infrastructure, research
– we should cut what we don’t need, and close corporate tax loopholes that don’t
help create jobs. This shouldn’t be as difficult as it has been in past years.
Remember, our deficits are shrinking – not growing.

Second, we should finish the job of fixing our broken immigration system. There’s
already a broad coalition across America that’s behind this effort, from business
leaders to faith leaders to law enforcement. It would grow our economy. It would
secure our borders. The Senate has already passed a bill with strong bipartisan
support. Now the House should, too. The majority of Americans thinks this is the
right thing to do. It can and should get done by the end of this year.

Third, we should pass a farm bill – one that America’s farmers and ranchers can
depend on, one that protects vulnerable children and adults in times of need, and
one that gives rural communities opportunities to grow and the longer-term
certainty they deserve.

We won’t suddenly agree on everything now that the cloud of crisis has passed.
But we shouldn’t hold back on places where we do agree, just because we don’t
think it’s good politics, or just because the extremes in our parties don’t like
compromise. I’ll look for willing partners from either party to get important work
done. There’s no good reason why we can’t govern responsibly, without lurching
from manufactured crisis to manufactured crisis. Because that isn’t governing – it’s
just hurting the people we were sent here to serve.

Those of us who have the privilege to serve this country have an obligation to do
our job the best we can. We come from different parties, but we’re Americans first.
And our obligations to you must compel all of us, Democrats and Republicans, to
cooperate, and compromise, and act in the best interests of this country we love.

Thanks everybody, and have a great weekend.

Activity 4

Process Questions:

Who is the speaker in the video?

President Barack Obama, ma’am.
To whom is the speaker speaking?
The speaker is speaking to the American
people, ma’am.

What is the issue presented in the speech?

The issue presented in the speech is the
issue of Government Shutdown.
What do you think is the reason why
President Obama delivered this speech?
To make the people realize that no one
should be blamed on the government
shutdown of America.
Yes, it is very obvious that President
Obama wanted to clear an issue and he
also suggested some ways on how they
could make a progress especially that
Democrats and Republicans came together
and that the government was reopened and
the threat of default was removed from their
economy.

From the statement “Those of us who have

the privilege to serve this country have an
obligation to do our job the best we can.”
what does President Obama try to tell us?
To those people who are in authorities, and
those people who are in place to serve the
country like those policemen and teachers
should do their job honestly and with
integrity.
Activity 5. Valuing

Now let us reflect this on this situation.

Ten years from now, with God’s blessings,
you would become professionals, how
would you serve your community or our
country?
If I would be a professional 10 years from
now, I will serve the country through being
honest and loyal to my job.
If you were given the chance to be the
president or an elected official of our
country, what would you change or what
would you do to make our country
progressive?

If I would become the president of the

Philippines, I will be honest to my duty and
to the people; I will stop corruption and I will
do everything to make a progress in the
country.
Generalization
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and
ideas, class. We all have the privileges and
opportunities of making a change in
ourselves, in our country and most
especially to our future.
There are lot of new things emerging in our
ever changing world. It is our responsibility
to discern what to follow and what to
believe in.

marks while column B don’t have.
What is their similarities?
The message of the statement is the same.
When do we use sentences A? sentences
B?
Sentences A is used when you quote
directly the statement of someone.
While sentences B is used when you are
indirectly say or tell a statement from
someone.
Correct! Very good, class.
So what do you think is our lesson for this
morning?
I think it’s about Direct and indirect speech,
ma’am.
That’s right! English language has two ways
to narrate the spoken words of a person.
These are direct and indirect speech.

Let’s explore level 5.

Now kindly read the definition of direct and

indirect statement, class.

DIRECT SPEECH

 Actual words are quoted (with no changes).

 The exact or actual words of the speaker are enclosed in Inverted commas or
Quotation Marks (“ ”).
 There is always a comma (,) or a colon (:) after “said,” that introduces the spoken
words.

For example:

He said, “I am going to School.”

INDIRECT SPEECH

 Actual words of speaker are changed.

 Actual words are being spoken by another person in past form.
 Narrating in present will require change in the tense of the actual words.
 The pronouns of the sentence are also changed accordingly.
 There is no use of commas.
 A word “that” is used before the spoken words of the speaker.

For example:

Direct speech: He said, “I am going to School.”

Indirect speech: He said that he was going to school.

TWO COMPONENTS OF A SENTENCE OF A DIRECT SPEECH

Reporting Verb: The verb of the first sentence (i.e. She said, He said, she says, he says,
they said, he emphasizes etc.) before the actual words of the speaker is called Reporting
Verb.
Examples:
She said, “I am listening to music.”
He says, “You are an intelligent student.”
You will say, “I need your help.”

Reported Speech: The second sentence (Actual words of the speaker) that is enclosed in
inverted commas or quotation marks is called Reported Speech.

Examples:
He said, “I got a job in college.”
She says, “I want to become a doctor.”
They said, “We will play football in the playground.”

BASIC RULES FOR INDIRECT SPEECH

Rule No. 1. Words of the speaker are not enclosed in Inverted commas or Quotation
Marks.
Example:
President Obama said there were no winners in this government shutdown.

Rule No. 2. Usage of word “that”: the conjunction “that” is always used between reporting
verb and reported speech.
Example:
Direct Speech: President Obama said, “There were no winners in this government
shutdown.”
Indirect Speech: President Obama said that there were no winners in this government
shutdown.

Rule No. 3. Change in tense of the reported speech.

Example:
Direct speech: She said, “I am watching a movie.”
Indirect speech: She said that she was watching a movie.

Rule No. 4. Changes in Pronoun: the pronoun (the subject) of reported speech is
sometimes changed according to the pronoun (subject) or object of the reporting verb in
the direct speech. Possessive pronouns (i.e. his, her, my, their, your etc.) may also
change according to the subject or object of the first sentence.

Example:
Direct speech: He said, “I ate two apples.”
Indirect speech: He said that he ate two apples.

Rule No. 5. Change in time: If there’s a time mention in the sentence of direct speech, the
time will be changed in indirect speech. There are certain rules in changing the time (i.e.
tomorrow – the next day, today – that day, yesterday – the previous day)
Example:
Direct speech: She said, “I am buying a laptop today.”
Indirect speech: She said that she was buying a laptop that day

Activity 7. Evaluation (DI)

No more questions with direct and indirect

speech, class?
No more, ma’am.
Since you already understood what are the
uses and functions of a direct and indirect
speech class, we will finish the level 5 of
our quest.

The class will be divided into three groups

according to the color of your nametags.
To start doing the task, each group must
form a circle. Each group is only given 3
minutes.
After it, choose representatives from your
group to present your task. Am I
understood?
Yes, ma’am.
Start working now.

Yellow Group: Read carefully the examples of direct and indirect sentences. Tell whether
the sentences changed from direct to indirect are correctly written. Write your choice,
whether correct or incorrect, and explain what made it incorrect.
1. Mia said “I want to watch the play.”
Mia said that she wants to watch the play.
2. Lanze said, “I am going with you.”
Lanze said that he was going with her.
3. “I saw the play with Brayden yesterday,” said Pauline.
Pauline said she saw the play with Brayden yesterday.
Answers:
1. Incorrect. Mia said, “I want to watch the play.”
2. Correct.
3. Incorrect. Pauline said that she saw the play with Brayden yesterday.

Pink Group: Change the following direct statements to indirect statements or vice versa.
1. Johnny told Kim that not finding himself at the age of 34 was a disgrace!
Answer: Willy told Biff, “Not finding myself at the age of 34 is a disgrace!”
2. “We should pass a farm bill,” President Obama said.
Answer: President Obama said that we should pass a farm bill.
3. Obama said that nobody holds our future but us.
Answer: Obama said, “Nobody holds our future but us.”

Blue Group: Identify the following sentences whether Direct or Indirect Speech.

None,
1. The girl said, ‘It gives me great pleasure ma’am.
to be here this evening.’ – Direct Speech
2. John said that he wanted to be a lawyer. – Indirect Speech
3. Mother says that she’s buying a new house in London. – Indirect Speech

Very well then. It is very clear that you

already understood direct and indirect
speech. Any questions?
None, ma’am.
E. Product/Performance

Alright class, let me ask you, have you

been receiving texts from NDRRMC every
time there’s a typhoon, earthquake or any
other calamities?
Yes, ma’am.
That’s great. What was the usual thing that
the NDRRMC tried to tell you when you
received their texts?
They are trying to give us warning ma’am.
Yes, you’re absolutely right.

Now class, we are already on our final level

on our quest in discerning future
opportunities and Bunny just called me a
while ago to check level 6, our final quest.

You notice the arrow sign in your

nametags?
Yes, ma’am.
You will be again divided into four groups.
The nametags with a right arrow will stay
here, the left arrow will stay here, upward
arrow here and the downward arrow will
stay here. Form a circle with your group.

Each group will have a specific task to do.

Suppose that you are volunteers from
SARAS and you are task to encourage
people to be prepared in times of
calamities.

The upward arrow will make a short

dramatization on what to do before, during
and after fire. The downward arrow will
present an infomercial about earthquake.
Do you follow?

Yes, ma’am.
The right arrow will make a poster slogan
and the left arrow will compose a poem.

Your outputs must be with the concern of

valuing and understanding future by
showing preparedness in times of
calamities. Make sure to incorporate direct
and indirect statements in your scripts. Am I
understood?
Yes, ma’am.
Before you start working, please be guided
with the criteria on how you are to be rated.
