TEXT MESSAGE
Examiner: How often do you send text messages?
You: I send text messages quite frequently, especially to keep in touch with friends and family who live far away. I'd say I
send at least a few texts every day.
Examiner: Do you prefer sending texts or making phone calls?
You: I prefer sending texts for quick conversations or to share simple information, but I prefer phone calls for more in-
depth discussions or to catch up with loved ones.
Examiner: What kind of things do you usually text about?
You: I usually text about everyday things like plans, updates, or just to say hello. I also use texting to coordinate with
friends, like making plans for a night out or sharing information about an event.
Examiner: Have you ever received a text message that changed your plans?
You: Yes, once I received a text from a friend canceling our plans at the last minute, so I had to adjust my schedule
accordingly. It was inconvenient, but it happens!
Examiner: Do you think text messaging has improved communication?
You: Yes, I think text messaging has made communication faster and more convenient, especially for short messages or
when you're in a hurry. It's also great for keeping in touch with people who live far away or whom you might not otherwise
have time to talk to regularly.
ADVERTISEMENT
Examiner: Do you pay attention to advertisements?
You: Yes, I do. I think advertisements can be informative and entertaining, and they often help me learn about new
products or services that might be useful to me.
Examiner: What kind of advertisements do you find most effective?
You: I think visual ads with eye-catching images and clear messages are most effective. I also appreciate ads that tell a story
or evoke an emotional response, as they tend to be more memorable.

Examiner: Do you prefer online or TV advertisements?
You: I prefer online ads because they're more targeted to my interests and I can interact with them if I want to learn more.
Plus, I can skip them if I'm not interested!
Examiner: Have you ever bought something because of an advertisement?
You: Yes, once I saw an ad for a new smartphone that highlighted its advanced camera features, and it convinced me to
upgrade my phone.
Examiner: Do you think advertisements influence your purchasing decisions?
You: To some extent, yes. If an ad resonates with me and addresses a need or want I have, it can sway my decision.
However, I also do my own research and consider factors like price, quality, and reviews before making a purchase.
CLASSMATE
Examiner: Do you keep in touch with any of your old classmates?
You: Yes, I still keep in touch with a few close friends from my school days. We try to meet up whenever we can, and we
also keep in touch through social media and messaging apps. It's great to see how everyone's lives have turned out and to
reminisce about old times.
Examiner: What do you usually talk about when you meet a classmate after a long time?
You: We usually catch up on each other's lives, talk about our jobs, families, and shared memories. We also often end up
talking about our plans and goals for the future, and offering each other advice and support. It's always great to get a
different perspective on things from someone who knows you so well.
Examiner: Did you have a favorite classmate?
You: Yes, I had a few close friends, but one friend in particular, we went through thick and thin together. We sat next to
each other in class, partnered up for projects, and even started a school club together. We had a lot of fun times, but we
also supported each other through tough times, like exams and personal struggles.
Examiner: What qualities made them a good classmate?

You: They were supportive, loyal, and always made me laugh. They were also very intelligent and insightful, and we had
great discussions about our subjects. But beyond that, they were just a really kind and caring person, always willing to lend
a helping hand or listening ear.
Examiner: Have you ever helped a classmate with their studies?
You: Yes, we used to study together and help each other out with difficult subjects. We would often meet up at the library
or at each other's houses and work through problems together. It was great to have someone to bounce ideas off of and to
get help from when I needed it. And of course, I was happy to return the favor when they needed it!
ONLINE READING
Examiner: Do you enjoy reading online?
You: Yes, I do! I find it convenient to access a wide range of articles, blogs, and news websites with just a few clicks. I can
stay up-to-date on current events, learn new things, and even relax with a good story.
Examiner: What kind of things do you like to read online?
You: I enjoy reading news articles, opinion pieces, and blog posts on topics that interest me, like technology, science, and
culture. I also like to read online reviews of books, movies, and products to help me make informed decisions.
Examiner: Do you prefer reading online or in print?
You: While I appreciate the convenience of online reading, I still enjoy reading physical books and newspapers. There's
something tactile and satisfying about turning pages and feeling the weight of the material in my hands.
Examiner: Have you ever read an online article that changed your perspective on something?
You: Yes, I once read an article about a social issue that challenged my assumptions and made me see things from a
different angle. It was eye-opening and thought-provoking, and it sparked a lot of reflection and discussion.
Examiner: Do you think online reading has improved your reading skills?
You: Absolutely! Online reading has helped me develop my critical thinking skills, as I need to evaluate the credibility of
sources and synthesize information from multiple perspectives. It's also improved my reading speed and comprehension,
as I've learned to scan and focus on key points.
