  3. I. Reading skill -- Recognizing Differences Between Facts and Opinion

  4. 1.Difference Between Facts and Opinions • Facts are statements that tell what really happened or what really in the case. A fact can be proved or disproved with direct evidence. It is something known by actual experience or observing. • Opinions are statements of belief, judgment or feeling. They show what someone thinks or feels about a subject. Solid opinions, of course, are based on facts. However, opinions are still somebody’s view of something and are not facts themselves. • It is now always easy to tell opinion from fact. A writer often combines the two in such a way that we do not always notice where facts ends and opinion begins. When we have a mixture of fact and opinion in a single statement, we must decide whether the main point of the sentence is essentially fact or opinion. Sometimes an opinion is presented as it it were a fact.
