Page 4 - E-BOOK OPINION AND THOUGHT

A. Introduction
1. Short description
In this teaching material, opinions and thoughts will be discussed. We have our own
personal opinion or thoughts. When we are discussing or talking about an issue or event,
someone may ask for your opinion or thoughts, by saying, "What do you think about
about it?". In this chapter we are going to study about how to express or state opinions
and thoughts, and how to respond to them. Opinion is a view or judgment not
necessarily based on facts or knowledge. Thought is an idea or opinion produced by
thinking or occurring suddenly in the mind. In responding to an opinion or thought, we
can agree or disagree with it. We will also study some expressions of agreement and
agree in this chapter.
