Top 3 Best Literary Text Drafts (Literature 10)

I. Concept of Literary Texts

Question 1 (Page 24, Literature 10 Textbook): All three texts are created through language communication.
- Text (1): exchanging experiences, consisting of one sentence.
- Text (2): expressing emotions, consisting of multiple sentences, written in poetry.
- Text (3): expressing emotions, evoking feelings, consisting of multiple sentences, many paragraphs connected logically, written in prose.

Question 2 (Page 24, Literature 10 Textbook): Topics addressed by the texts:
+ Text (1): the importance of the living environment in shaping human character.
+ Text (2): the plight of women in old society.
+ Text (3): calling for people to rise up and resist French colonialism.
These issues are clearly developed and consistently presented in each text. Texts (2) and (3) contain many sentences, but are tightly connected (either through meaning or conjunctions).

Question 3 (Page 24, Literature 10 Textbook): Coherence in the texts:
- Text (2):
+ Each couplet of six-eight poems with comparisons and metaphors forms a separate idea.
+ Ideas are arranged in the order of events.
+ Two couplets of poetry are connected both by form (repetition of the phrase “my body”) and meaning.
- Text (3):
+ Structure consists of three parts: Introduction, Body, and Conclusion.
+ Issues are developed in a logical and clear sequence:
Introduction: title and call to action: “People of the entire nation!” ⇒ introduces the issue
Body: continues to “… certain victory for our nation!” ⇒ develops the issue
Conclusion: the remaining part ⇒ concludes and reaffirms the issue.

Question 4 (Page 24, Literature 10 Textbook): Text (3) is a political speech presented in the form of a “call to action.” The opening and closing signs of this text are:
- Introduction: title and call to action: “People of the entire nation!” ⇒ guides readers into the main content to attract attention and create empathy for the communication.
- Conclusion: the last two sentences ⇒ issues a call, a resounding slogan that encourages the will and patriotism of the people.

Question 5 (Page 24, Literature 10 Textbook): Purpose of creating the texts:
+ Text (1): provides life experience for readers (importance of the environment in forming human character).
+ Text (2): the fate of women in feudal society (they cannot decide their own fate or future life, relying on men and chance).
+ Text (3): calls on all people to rise and resist the second invasion war of French colonists.

II. Types of Literary Texts
Question 1 (Page 25, Literature 10 Textbook): Compare texts (1), (2) with text (3):
- Issues:
+ Text (1) discusses life experience ⇒ Social issue
+ Text (2) talks about the plight of women in old society ⇒ Social issue
+ Text (3) is a call to unite and resist French colonization ⇒ Political issue.
- Vocabulary:
+ Texts (1) and (2): contain everyday language and expressions (ink, lamp, body, rain, plowing fields…).
