b. Persuasive Writing d. Biography
What’s In
In this module we are going to know the effective way to comprehend a story.
It is important for you learners to be able to compare and contrast ideas found in
multiple sources to enable them to identify conflicting information and consistent
information and critically evaluate sources. When you can compare and contrast
information, you can already make inferences and draw conclusions about topics.
Comparing and contrasting information from multiple sources allows you to get a
more comprehensive view of topics.
Let us take for example the popular magical movie of J.K. Rowlings, “Harry
Potter” movie series. The author had written the story and published it to be read by
people of all ages. Then, it was made into movies which hit the billboards of cinemas.
Movies are made to entertain us. Likewise, the books. These two (2) have
similar genres. What are “genres.”
3 CO_Q1_English10_ Module 4
According to Webster’s Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary of the English
Language defines genre as “a category of artistic, musical, or literary composition
characterized by a particular style, form, or content.”
Genres of a short story text and movies are the same, they are both comedy,
romance, magical and historical. They both are in fiction and non-fiction.

These movies are all based and adapted from books. Most likely, there are
differences between each book and its movies.
Aside from the given examples, there are some similarities and difference of
stories in texts from movies.
Comparing and contrasting these 2 will help us a lot in understanding a story.
Let us use the familiar Venn Diagram to identify the similarities and
differences of these 2.
4 CO_Q1_English10_ Module 4
As, we can see clearly the similarities and differences of a story from
books and from movies adaptation, it makes us understand that stories would give
us points on which of these 2 are effective to make our comprehension skills be
develop. Moreover, its accessibility to us to hold onto the material.

What is It
The activity above shows that movies are adapted from books. There are a lot of
differences and similarities that we can see from them. It was already explained
above using the Venn Diagram.
Books would give the story in details. from the characters until to the scene
and ending. However, it is rich in text and seldom will you be having pictures of it.
Comparingly to the movies/films adaptations, it gives us a view of the scenes used
in the story. Likewise, famous characters will be portraying the roles. It will be
more entertaining watching the movie.
Just like how story books differ from movies. let us take a look at the book of
mythology. It has different versions as well. Let us read one story (summary) from
the mythology entitled; “the Gorgon’s Head,” by Anne Terry White.
7 CO_Q1_English10_ Module 4
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 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 discus.

head/)
Now, read the synopsis/summary of the movie “Clash of the Titans” an
adaptation mythological story of “The Gorgon’s Head.”
8 CO_Q1_English10_ Module 4
Andromeda (Alexa Davalos) is offered as a sacrifice. Before leaving, he reveals that
Perseus is a demigod.
Perseus is imprisoned by Draco and in captivity meets Io (Gemma Arterton)
who tells him of his origin. Many years before, King Acrisius (Jason Flemyng) also
tried declaring war against the gods. To punish him, Zeus impersonated Acrisius and
impregnated his wife, Queen Dänae (Tine Stapelfeldt). Acrisius, driven mad with rage,
orders the execution of Dänae and the newborn baby and casts them into the sea in
a coffin. As punishment for his continued defiance, Zeus also strikes Acrisius with
lightning, transforming him into a monster. Io also reveals that she was cursed with
immortality after refusing to give in to Poseidon's advances and has watched over
Perseus his entire life, beginning with watching from ashore as his adoptive parents
rescue him from the floating coffin, to the present, always protecting him, as he is
prophesized to be the only one able to stand up to the Gods.
As the Cult of Hades, led by the insane Prokopion (Luke Treadaway), grows in
number and demands Andromeda's sacrifice, a desperate Kepheus asks Perseus to
lead the King's Guard to visit the Stygian Witches in order to discover a way to kill
the Kraken. Perseus - wishing to avenge the death of his family - accepts. Perseus
and the guards head off on their quest joined by Ottoman monster hunters, Ozal
(Ashraf Barhom) and Kucuk (Mouloud Achour). Hades, in hopes of stopping Perseus,
finds Acrisius, now known as Calibos, and grants him superhuman abilities in
exchange for Calibos assuring Perseus will die before he reaches the Witches.
Zeus is convinced by Apollo (Luke Evans), who doesn't trust Hades, to give
Perseus a chance and presents him with an enchanted sword forged on Mount
Olympus and a winged horse named Pegasus. Perseus refuses both gifts but a wise
Draco puts the sword into safekeeping. Shortly thereafter, they are attacked by
Calibos. Perseus barely manages to hold him at bay and is bitten by Calibos in a
desperate move. Draco severs Calibos's hand causing Calibos to flee. The band gives
chase only to be attacked by Scorpiochs summoned by Calibos’s blood. Although
they manage to kill some of them, they are ultimately surrounded by even larger
scorpions until they are saved by the Djinn, a band of Arabic desert sorcerers led by
Sheikh Sulieman (Ian Whyte). The Djinn, also wishing for the gods' defeat, lends their
aid to Perseus and his hand.
The group arrives at the lair of the Stygian Witches and learns from them that
the only possibility for killing the Kraken is with the head of a gorgon Medusa who
is residing in a temple in the Underworld. Medusa is able to turn any living creature
into stone by making eye contact, and thus capturing her head is essential for
battling the Kraken. As they prepare to head into the Underworld, Perseus is
approached by Apollo, who gives him a golden drachma which is a fare for Charon,
the ferryman of the Underworld.
Perseus, Io, Sulieman, Draco and his remaining men Solon (Liam
Cunningham), Eusebios (Nicholas Hoult) and Ixas (Hans Matheson) arrive at the
Underworld and the men enter Medusa's Lair while Io remains outside, unable to
enter. Medusa (Natalia Vodianova) kills Solon, (who was shot and falls into the fire),
Eusebios and Ixas (who have turned to stone), and wounds the shot Draco. Sulieman
and Draco wound Medusa and turn to stone, making the ultimate sacrifice. The badly
wounded Medusa is beheaded by Perseus, who takes her head. The rest of the body
falls into the fire. As he is leaving the temple, he witnesses Calibos creep up behind
9 CO_Q1_English10_ Module 4
and murder Io. Perseus and Calibos engage in mortal combat with Calibos having
the upper hand and disarming Perseus. Finally coming to terms with who he is,
Perseus picks up the Olympian sword and pierces Calibos through the heart, turning
him back into Acrisius in human form restoring him to sanity and humility for one
last moment.
After saying his goodbyes to the dying Io, who urges him forward to save
Andromeda and Argos before she dissolves into an ethereal vapor, Perseus mounts
Pegasus and hastens back to Argos. In the meantime, Zeus has ordered the Kraken's
release. The Cult of Hades in Argos invade the palace and seize Andromeda to
sacrifice her to the Kraken. While the Kraken ravages Argos, Hades reveals to Zeus
that while they have been surviving on the people’s adoration, he has been feeding
on people's fear and his monster has been channeling even more fear. While the gods
have become weaker, Hades has now grown powerful enough to take on Mount
Olympus and even destroy it in revenge for his betrayal so many years before.
Realizing his mistake too late, Zeus can only rely on Perseus.
In Argos, Hades unleashes the Furies against Perseus and they manage to
snag away from him the sack holding Medusa’s head. In an intense aerial chase with
Perseus riding Pegasus, he manages to retrieve the bag, just in time for the Kraken
to fully emerge. The Kraken causes massive damage to Argos before heading to
devour Andromeda. Before the Kraken is able to eat Andromeda, Perseus races to
open the bag, unveil the head of Medusa and face it to the Kraken, who makes eye
contact, slowly turning it into stone. The massive statue cracks and the falling debris
kills Prokopion and Kepheus, while Andromeda falls into the sea. Hades appears to
confront Perseus. Perseus in defiance raises his sword to the heavens and calling
upon Zeus, throws his sword at Hades. A lightning bolt engulfs the sword and
banishes Hades to the Underworld once more.
After defeating the Kraken and Hades, Andromeda falls into the sea and
Perseus dives in to save her. When he reaches her, he embraces her with a passionate
kiss, indicating that he fell in love with her, and she with him. After reaching the
shore and regaining consciousness, Andromeda asks Perseus if he will stay and he
says there is someone he needs to talk to, before kissing her again, indicating that
he will come back. Getting on Pegasus, he flies to Mount Olympus where he confronts
Zeus, stating that he does not wish to be one of them and that any conflict between
them has just started. After slamming his sword into the Gods' map and shattering
the models of every living person, he leaves and is seen flying on Pegasus over the
sea, presumably back to Argos.
Activity 2: “Gorgon’s Head VS Clash of the Titans”
