ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I would like to acknowledge the people who help me make this research paper possible. First of all, I would like to thank my teacher in English IV, Mrs. Nimfa G. Empedrad for teaching the steps and guiding us on how to write different parts of a research paper. Also, the Manila Bulletin where I can find all my articles or clippings. My classmates for explaining to me the things that I don’t easily get especially Von Eric, Ruby Mae, Mark Erwin and Karen Mae who accompany me to go to the Manila Bulletin. Next is the internet where I’ve found additional knowledge or information that helps me to make this research easily. The dictionary for the words that is hard for me to understand and Nathaniel Erik Lopez for clearing me up the thesis statement and giving me the possible title for my topic.
