Task 1: What suggestions would you give to a friend who is starting a new job. Give examples and details in your response.
參考答案
I'd like to give my friend who's starting a new job the following suggestions. First, get familiar with people at the new place. I believe that the best way of getting use to a new work environment or cooperate culture is talking to, and learning from the people who work there as often as possible. They can give new comers lots of tips on what to look out for, and how they can advance in the company. Second, try to be productive. There are so many things one can do to stay productive. Including getting in the office on time, meeting deadlines and consulting with boss and coworkers when difficulty presents.
Task 2: Do you agree or disagree with the statement that students should be allowed to carry their cellphones at all times. Give details and examples in your response.
參考答案
I strongly agree with the statement that students should be allowed to carry their cellphones all the time. First of all, people do everything nowadays on their cellphones. Take myself for example. All my class schedules are on my phone. Sometimes I take audio notes in a class that might be going to fast for me which help enormously. Also, when it comes to communication, cellphones are extremely important for us if not crucial. Especially in the case of an emergency. Students can call or send text messages to get help or stay in touch with their loved ones.
