13.Some people prefer to eat at food stands orrestaurants. Other people prefer to prepare and eat foodat home. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons andexamples to support your answer.

Some people like to eat out at food stands and restaurants, while others like to prepare food at home. Often it depends onthe kind of lifestyle people have. Those with very busy jobsoutside the house don't always have time to cook. They like the convenience of eating out. Overall, though, it is cheaper and healthier to eat at home.

While eating in restaurants is fast, the money you spend can add up. When I have dinner atrestaurant with a friend, the bill is usually over twenty dollars. I can buy a lot of groceries with thatmuch money. Even lunch at a fast-food stand usually costs five or six dollars for one person. That’s enough to feed the whole family at home.

Eating at home is better for you, too. Meals at restaurants are often high in fat and calories, andthey serve big plates of food--much more food than you need to eat at one meal. If you cookfood at home, you have more control over the ingredients. You can use margarine instead ofbutter on your potatoes, or not put so much cheese on top of your pizza. At home, you cancontrol your portion size. You can serve yourself as little as you want. In a restaurant, you may eata full plate of food “because you paid for it”.

It's true that eating out is convenient. You don't have to shop, or cook, or clean up. But real homecooking doesn't have to take a lot of time. There are lots of simple meals that don't take long tomake. In fact, they're faster than eating out, especially if you think of the time you spend drivingto a restaurant, parking, waiting for a table, waiting for service, and driving home.

Both eating at restaurants and cooking at home can be satisfying. Both can taste good and beenjoyed with family and friends. I prefer cooking at home because of the money and health issues, but people will make the choice that fits their lifestyle best.

14 Some people believe that university students should be required to attend classes. Others believe that going to classes should be optional for students. Which point ofview do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to explain your answer.

Some people may believe that going to classes should be optional, but I disagree. I don'tunderstand how university students can expect to learn anything if they don't attend classes. Personal experience can help people learn about themselves and the world outside the classroom, but when it comes to learning about academic subjects, students need to be in class.

In class they receive the benefit of the teacher's knowledge. The best teachers do more than justgo over the material in than class textbook. They draw their students into discussion of thematerial. They present opposing points of view. They schedule guest speakers to come, give thestudents additional information, or show documentary films on the subject.

Also, attending classes on any subject teaches more than just facts. It teaches students how tolearn, how to absorb information and then apply what they've learned to other situations. Theirteacher is the best one to help them with these skills. They can't learn them just by reading thetextbook.

Going to class also teaches students how to work with the other members of the class. Many timesstudents will be given group assignments. This is different from what they did in secondary school. Here they're with people from different backgrounds and experiences. In this situation, they learnhow to handle working with people different from themselves to achieve a common goal.

Going to class also teaches students responsibility and discipline. Having to be at a particular placeat a particular time prepares them for getting a job. Being at a place on time with an assignmentcompleted prepares them for a career.

In short, by going to class students learn more than just information from the teacher. They alsolearn how to learn, how to work with others, and how to work responsibly. These are not optionalskills in life, so attending classes should not be optional in college.

23 AD Do you agree or disagree with the followingstatement? Sometimes it is better not to tell the truth .Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

I agree that sometimes it is better not to tell the truth. In somecases the truth is going to hurt someone and no good will begained by it. If so, then I don't think that person should be toldthe truth. There are times when a person needs to know thetruth in order to make an important decision, There are also times when telling the truth is the onlyway to help someone who's being self-destructive. However, often telling the truth only benefitsthe teller, not the person being told.

If someone has said something nasty about a person, those words don't need to be repeated. However, what if a person has told a shameful secret to a friend, and that friend has told the secretto others? Then that person needs to know that she can't trust her friend, Otherwise ,she mighttell that friend other secrets.

What if someone is doing something self-destructive, like partying all night in college instead ofstudying? Then he needs to be told that this behavior is upsetting his friend who are worried abouthim. However, if he skips class and teacher asks his friend why he isn't there, it’s not necessary forthe friend to tell the truth. He doesn't have to be, but he also doesn't have to give informationabout his friend's behavior.

Sometimes people needs to know the truth before they can make an important decision. Supposeyou're selling your house and you know there's water in the basement. Then you should tell thetruth about that to anyone interesting in buying your house. If you don’t, you could be in troublelegally as well as ethically! However, you don't need to tell the truth about the cranky neighborwho lives next door. The neighbor may not be as cranky with someone else as he was with you. Sometimes It's better not to tell.

24 AD In some countries, teenager have jobs while they are still srudents. Do you thinkthis is a good idea? Support your opinion by using specific reasons and details.

I don't think it is a good ideas for teenagers to have jobs while they are still students. It caninterfere with their studies, It can disrupt their home life, and it takes away part of their childhoodthat their can never replace.

Education today is very complex and difficult .In order to learn and get good grades, a studentmust work very hard and concentrate, This means attending classes from early in the morninguntil late afternoon, then doing research for projects, then going home and doing homework. It’s abusy schedule for everyone. For someone trying to hold down a job, it’s even harder. Studentsneed all their energy for their studies. If they're working after class at night, they’re going to betired the next day. They won't be able to concentrate. This will have a negative impact on theirlearning, and eventually on their grades.

Having a job can also disrupt a teenager's home life. Families spend less and less

time together. If a teenager has a job to go to after school, he won't be home for dinner.

He won't be home after dinner either, and may not get home until late at night, This means hedoesn't have a lot of time to spend with his family .If he doesn't have a car, it can mean changes inhis parents' schedule ,too. They have to drive him to work and pick him up.

The main drawback of a teenager having a job while he's still a student is that he's missing out onthe fun of being young. He has a whole lifetime in which he'll have to earn a living. This is the lastfree time he'll have, It’s the last chance he'll have to hang out with friends and just enjoy himself. Soon enough he'll have to worry about paying the rent and buying food.

Jobs bring money, but money isn't everything. A teenager with a job gives us too much. No oneshould spend all his time at working, and especially not a teenager.

11. Do you agree or disagree with the followingstatement? Universities should give the same amount ofmoney to their students' sports activities as they give totheir university libraries. Use specific reasons andexamples to support your opinion.

I disagree strongly with the idea that the same amount ofmoney should go to university sports activities as to universitylibraries. Although playing sports is a wonderful way to learn about teamwork, strategy andreaching your goals, it should not be the principal focus of a university education.

Students need the most up-to-date library facilities available to get the best education. Many ofthose facilities are very expensive to buy and maintain. These include computerized programs andaccess to internet research databases that students can use to find information all around theworld. If a university is only offering its students resources of a decade ago, it’s depriving thosestudents of a tremendous amount of information.

Even the book and magazine budget of universities has gone up tremendously in last decade. More is being published on every subject, and every university wants to have this informationavailable to its students.

It also costs money for universities to keep their libraries open. Students need to have access to allthe libraries' research tools as much of time as possible. Because students are young and can stayup all night studying, many universities are starting to leave their libraries open all night duringexam periods. This costs money, because the staff has to be paid extra to be there. It also costsmoney to run the building (electricity, heat) during that time.

Students at universities are only going to benefit from their education if they can get to all the toolsthey need to learn. Sports are secondary to the resources that students need from universitylibraries. For this reason, libraries should always be better funded than sport activities.

12 Many people visit museums when they travel to new places. Why do you thinkpeople visit museums? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

People love to visit museums when traveling to new places. I think this is because museums tellthem a lot about the culture of those places. Museums are also fun. It’s almost impossible to getbored in a museum. Every museum will have at least one thing of interest to somebody.

When visiting someplace new, you can find out about the culture of that place in many ways. Youcan go to a movie or a place of worship or a nightclub. Another option is to sit in the park andlisten to the people around you. The easiest way to learn about a place's culture, though, is byvisiting its museums. Museums will show you the history of the place you're visiting. They’ll showyou what art the locals think is important.

If there aren't any museums, that tells you something, too.

Museums are fun. Even if you're not interested in art or history, there is always something to getyour attention. Many museums now have what they call “hands-on” exhibits. These were originallydesigned to keep children occupied while their parents were looking at exhibits. However, museumshave found that adults enjoy hands-on opportunities just as much as children. These exhibits haveactivities like pushing a button to hear more about what you're looking at, creating your own workof art, or trying on clothes like those on the models in the museum.

People also enjoy visiting museums about unusual subjects. For instance, in my hometown there'sa museum devoted to the potato. This museum has art made out of potatoes. It also tells all aboutthe history of the potato, and sells potato mementos like key chains and potato dolls.

People enjoy visiting this museum because it's different. It’s not something they'd find in theirhometown and the museum's curator enjoy talking about the Great Potato.

Museums are popular because they are about us. They reflect our creations, our values, and ourdreams. No matter who you are or what you like, somewhere there is a museum that will amazeand interest you.

21 EX In general ,people are living longer now. Discussthe causes of this phenomenon. Use specific reasons anddetails to develop your essay.

Today people are living to be much older than ever before. Some of the main reasons for this are the improved health careand better nutrition available to everyone.

Medical care is more available to people. Although not everyone can get the best heath care, everyone can get basic heath care and advice. When people are seriously ill, they can go to apublic hospital and be taken care of. Years ago, health care wasn't available to everyone. Somepeople didn't live near a doctor or a hospital, and others couldn't pay for the care they needed. They made do with herbal medicines or folk remedies. Of course, some of these worked, but notfor the more serious diseases.

The quality of medical care has improved. That’s also a factor in longevity. Doctors know morenow about what causes disease and how to care it ,Years ago, doctors only knew about the mostbasic diseases and cures. Medicine was not very advanced. You could die from something as simpleas an infection from a cut. Now we have antibiotics and other medicines to help cure infections.

People are also living longer now because of better nutrition. We 're eating better and morehealthfully than we used to .That's reduced the number of people with heart disease and cancer. We try to eat low-fat foods and eat more vegetable and fruits ,which are now available year-round.

Improved medical care and healthy eating habits has greatly expanded our life spans. What weneed to do now is make sure that everyone in the world has these benefits.

22 Ex We all work or will work in our jobs with many different kinds of people, in youropinion ,what are some important characteristics of a co-worker (someone you workclosely with)?Use reasons and specific example to explain why these characteristics areimportant.

We spend more time with our co-workers during a week than we do with our family, Thus, it’simportant for our co-workers to be people we can get along with. I’ve worked in a lot of offices, and I've found there are certain characteristics that all good co-workers have in common.

A good co-worker is very cooperative, She does her best to get along with others.

She tries to keep her end of things flowing smoothly to help others in the office. She

realizes that if one person doesn't get her work done, it can hold up everyone else. She has apositive attitude that creates a pleasant working environment.

A good co-worker is adaptable. She is not stubborn about changes in schedules or routines, anddoesn't object to having her job descriiption revised. That can make life miserable for everyonearound her. A good co-worker is willing to change her schedule to accommodate another worker'semergency, She has no problem with new procedures and welcomes changes when they come.

A good co-worker is helpful. She pitches in when someone falls behind in his or her work. She’swilling to do whatever it takes to get the job done. She doesn't keep track of how often she has tofinish another's work or take on extra work. Some co-workers do their own job, period. They haveno sense of office community. They only want to do their work, get paid and go home.

A good co-worker is a sympathetic listener, and never uses what she learns against people. shedoesn’t gossip. A bad co-worker uses negative rumors to take advantage of others.

Being a good co-worker isn't too hard, but some people just can't seem to manage it. Wouldn’t itbe a wonderful world if everyone could?

9 AD Do you agree or disagree with the followingstatement? Television, newspapers, magazines, andother media pay too much attention to the personal livesof famous people such as public figures and celebrities. Use specific reasons and details to explain your opinion.

I think the media pay too much attention to the private lives offamous people. Television, newspaper magazines and web sitesdig up all kinds of past bad actions. They say that these are true reflections of a person's character. This may be true if they occurred only a few years before, but some of these are things people didas teenagers. People in their forties are expected to explain something they did when they werefifteen. If they killed someone, obviously that's more than a youthful mistake. Usually, though, these incidents involve experiments with drugs or being reckless in a car. They're not somethingthat the public needs to know.

The media love to say that the public has a right to know. That's not true. We don't need to knowif a movie star or politician has had an extramarital affair. That is something of concern only to thepeople involved. We do need to know if someone we're electing to public office has been involvedin shady business deals, but we don't need to know if he or she defaulted on a loan twenty yearsago.

It seems the media dig up these facts without giving thoughtful consideration to what mighthappen. It has an effect on the celebrity's family, especially the children. A celebrity's good nameand credibility may be ruined before he or she can prove that rumors are false. If a case goes tocourt, paying a lawyer can use up all their money. Even if it doesn't come to that, they may findtheir career ruined.

When are we, the public, going to make it clear to the media that we're tired of having to watchthis kind of thing on the news? Wouldn't it be better if they would concentrate on more importantissues?

30 PR Some people believe that the Earth is being harmed(damaged) by humanactivity. Others that human activity makes the Earth a better place to live. What is youropinion? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

The quality of human life has improved greatly over the past few centuries, but Earth is beingharmed more and more by human activity. As we develop our technology, we demand more fromour planet. Eventually, this will harm people as well.

Our planet gives us everything we need, but natural resources are not endless. Strip miningdevastates whole regions, leaving bare and useless ground. Deforestation removes old growthtrees that can't be replaced. Too much fishing may harm fish populations to the point where theycan't recover. We are too careless in taking what we want without giving anything back.

There are more people than ever, living longer that ever. So is it any surprise that many areassuffer from too much development? Anyone living in or near a city has experienced “urbansprawl”. There is a new shopping area on every corner and new houses, townhouses andapartments everywhere. Traffic gets worse and worse because planners can't keep up withgrowth. Keeping up with human demand is hard enough. Environmental concerns come in last.

With growth comes pollution. Companies and communities dump waste into water. Landfills are fullof trash. Emissions from factories pollute the air. Barrels of industrial waste and worse, radioactivewaste, have no safe place to go. If we're not careful, we can harm

our planet beyond repair.

People need to respect the Earth and try to preserve it. If we don't, what kind of future will wehave?

41 The expression “Never, never give up” means to keeptrying and never stop working for your goals. Do youagree or disagree with this statement? Use specificreasons and examples to support your answer.

“If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” These are wisewords. One should never give up. There is always anotheropportunity, another goal, or another option.

Once I ran for president of my class. Unfortunately, I lost. I lost because I did not promote myselfenough. I looked at my mistakes and decided how to correct them. The following year, I ran forpresident again. This time I gave speeches, called voters on the phone, and banded out brochures. This time I won. Never give up. There is always another opportunity.

Once I wanted to study medicine. Unfortunately, I didn’t like science. I failed all my science coursesat school. Then I realized that what I liked about medicine was helping people. I changed my goalfrom healing people to helping people. Now, I’m studying psychology. There is always anothergoal.

Once I wanted to talk with my friend. Unfortunately, his computer was down and I couldn’t e-mailhim. His phone line was busy so I couldn’t call him. Mail would take too long so I couldn’t write him. Since I really wanted to talk with him. I got on the bus and went across town to visit him. There isalways another option.

If you give up, you might as well die. My advice is to always look for another opportunity, anothergoal, or another option. There is always something else. Don’t give up.

42 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? With the help oftechnology, student nowadays can learn more information and learn it more quickly. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Technology has greatly improved the way we get information. Students can now get moreinformation, get it more quickly, and get it more conveniently.

The Internet and the World Wide Web has opened every major library and database to studentsaround the world. Information comes not only in print form, but also in multimedia. You can getaudio and video data. You can get information about event in the past as well as events thatunfold as you watch your computer monitor.

Information comes at the speed of the Internet, which is to say in nanoseconds. You can type in afew key words in your search engine, and the engine will search the entire www to find informationon your topic. You don’t have to spend hours pouring over card catalogs in the library and lookingat the shelves. This research is done for you instantly on the Web.

It is certainly more convenient to sit at home and do research on your computer. Your computeris open 24 hours a day, unlike a library or office, which has limited hours and limited resources. Youcan do research in your pajamas while you eat breakfast. What could be more convenient?

Technology, especially the Internet, has certainly changed the quantity and quality of theinformation we get. The speed and convenience of a computer helps students learn more, morequickly.

51 Do you agree or disagree with the followingstatement? Parents or other adult relatives should makeimportant decisions for their older (15 to 18 year-old) teenaged children. Use specific reasons and examples tosupport your opinion.

No one knows me as well as my parents. No one wants the bestfor me like my parents. It is natural that I should allow myparents to make important decisions for me. I think all older teenagers (15 to 18 year-olds) shouldtake their parents advice on decisions that concern their education, their social life, and their futurecareers.

My parents have always chosen the best schools for me to attend. They have encouraged me toattend special prep classes to make sure that I was well prepared for the exams. They have givenme tutors to make sure that I understood my subjects well. When it comes to choosing a college, I will trust my parents to make that decision. They know what they can afford and what will giveme a good education.

When I was young, my parents would invite children over to play with me. Over the years, I havebecome very close to these children. They are like my family. We celebrate holidays and birthdaystogether. We even go to the mountains together in the summer. My parents do not want me tofall into the wrong crowd. They do not want me to meet and fall in love with someone they do notknow. I understand that and I want to make them happy.

My father runs a very successful business and my mother is a well-known politician. They are verywell connected and they have many friends who would like me to work for them when I finishschool. This is a very good arrangement for me.

If all children follow their parents’ wishes, they would probably be happier. Parents only want thebest for their children.

52 Some people like to travel with a companion. Other people prefer to travel alone. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.

Traveling alone is the only way to travel. If you take someone with you, you take your home withyou. When you travel alone, you meet new people, have new experiences, and learn more aboutyourself.

When I traveled with my friend, I spend all my time with that friend. We eat together and sightseetogether. When I travel alone, I spend my time looking for new friends. It is easy to fine otherpeople, either other tourists or locals, to eat with or have a coffee with. When you share meals withstrangers, they become friends.

When I travel with a friend, my routine is predictable. We maintain the same schedule that we doat home. When I travel alone, I adopt the rhythm of the place I visit. I might take a nap in theafternoon and eat dinner at 11 pm. I might go to a disco and dance all night.

When I travel with a friend, we know how we will react to things. When I travel alone, each newexperience requires a new reaction. If I don’t try new things, I won’t be able to decide if I likesomething or not. Shall I ride an ostrich or eat one?

I think it is always important to do things on your own. You can fine new friends, collect newmemories, and adopt different ways of doing things. Isn’t that the point of travel?

53 Some people prefer to get up early in the morningand start the day’s work. Others prefer to get up later inthe day and work until late at night. Which do youprefer? Use specific reasons and examples to supportyour choice.

I prefer sleeping late and staying up late at night. This routine fitsmy body’s rhythm, my work schedule, and my social life.

I believe in following my body’s natural rhythm. My body tells me to sleep until I am ready to getup and go to bed when I am sleepy. This means I never get up early in the morning. My body tellsme it likes me to get 8 to 10 hours of sleep a day.

Sleeping late also fits my work schedule. Actually I don’t have that much work to do. I can easilyfinish my work between lunch and dinner. I think that if one works too much, there is not enoughtime left to enjoy one’s self.

My active social life is another reason I prefer to sleep late. Who gets up early in the morning tohave fun? No one. Anything amusing, such as concerts, dances, parties, dinners, all happen atnight. If I got up early in the morning, I would be too tired to enjoy myself in the evening.

I will maintain this pattern forever I hope. I think it is always important to listen to your body and ifyour body tells you to stay in bed, you should listen to it. By listening to you body, you will neverlet work interfere with your social life.

54 What are the important qualities of a good son or daughter? Have these qualitieschanged or remained the same over time in your culture? Use specific reasons andexamples to support your answer.

The qualities of a good son and daughter---obedience, loyalty, respect---have not changed. Anypatent will tell you that, like their ancestors, they expect these qualities from their children. However, they do not always get what they expect from their children.

Parents demand that their sons and daughters, regardless of age, obey them. Even if the childrenare married and have their own children, they should still do whatever their parents ask of them. Atlast, that’s the way it was. Now, children tend to obey their parents until the children are of collegeage. Then they feel they are adult enough and can make their own decisions even if thesedecisions are against the parent’s wishes.

Parents also expect loyalty from their children. If there was a dispute in the neighborhood orbetween families, the parents would expect their children to side with their own family. This qualityis probably still very common. Most children today will support their family against others.

Parents, of course, demand respect. As people become more mobile, and introduced to non-traditional ways of doing things, this quality may not endure. Parents are sometimes viewed as old-fashioned. Children don’t think their parents can appreciate the way life really is. They think theirparents are too old to understand. They lose respect for their parents.

Obedience, loyalty, and respect are virtues that are being challenged today. We may not obey ourparents, give them the loyalty or respect they wish or deserve, but I hope my children obey me, are loyal to me, and respect me.

66 Do you agree or disagree with the followingstatement? Business should do anything they can tomake a profit. Use specific reasons and examples tosupport your position.

After I get my degree, I plan to start a business. My goal is tomake money, a lot of money. However, I can’t forget that thereare more important things in life than earning a profit. I mustconsider the people I work with, the customers I serve, and thecommunity I live in.

My colleagues are a very important part of my business. Without them, I would not have abusiness. I depend on them to help me carry on the day-to-day operations. I depend on them fortheir advice on what to sell and how to sell it. I must compensate them for their work. I can’t takelarge profits without sharing with the people who made it responsible.

Similarly, I would not have a business without my customers. I can never forget that they couldtake their business elsewhere. I must give them good value for their money. I can’t overchargethem. I must also remember that money is as important to them as it is to me. I want mycustomers to trust me and keep coming back.

My employees and I all live in the same community as our customers. We are apart of the social lifeof our community. We can’t ignore it. We must play an active part in it. I feel it is important thatsome of the profits my business earns from the community be returned to the community. Weneed to support community programs like summer jobs for high school students, campaigns toclean up the parks, and efforts to make the shopping area more attractive.

A business must make profits, but we all—workers, customers, community—must profit from asuccessful business.

67 Some people are always in hurry to go places and get things done. Other peopleprefer to take their time and live life at a slower pace. Which do you prefer? Use specificreasons and examples to support your answer.

Life is short. Haste makes waste. What’s your hurry? These three sayings characterize the way Imanage my day to day chores. I don’t want to rush through things; I prefer to take my time.

Life is short. You never know what may happen tomorrow so it is important to enjoy today. Ofcourse, some people will say that’s why it is important to cram a lot into a day. But then, howwould you possibly have time to enjoy all of those experiences. By doing a few things slowly anddoing them well, you can savor the experience.

Haste makes waste. We are not machines. We can’t rush through things mechanically. If we do, we might forget something; we might take shortcuts. By taking our time, we can do a chorecarefully, completely, and correctly.

What’s your hurry? Where’s the fire? I don’t see any need to rush to the next experience. There’sstill a lot to see and learn form the chores around you. Taking care of your baby brother forinstance can be very rewarding. You could simply keep him near you while you watch TV and writea letter and talk on the phone. Or you could devote your whole attention to him and observe hisreactions to his environment. You can observe carefully, If you are trying to do four things at thesame time.

To twist a common saying, “Don’t just do something, sit there!” Take life easy and savor eachminute. Life is shorter than you think.

17 Some people think that they can learn better bythemselves than with a teacher. Others think that it isalways better to have a teacher. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons to develop your essay.

Most of us can learn how to do something simple on our ownwith just a set of instructions. However, to learn aboutsomething more complex, it's always best to have a teacher.

Teachers bring with them varied and useful backgrounds. They've been trained to teach individualsin different ways depending on their style. For instance, omen students learn better by discussing atopic. Others learn more by writing about it. Teachers can help students learn in the way that'sbest of each student. A textbook or a manual can only give you one way of learning something. Plus they're only as helpful as your ability to understand them. A good teacher can adapt herteaching to your needs.

Teachers help you focus on what you're learning. If you're learning something by yourself, it’s easyto become distracted, and go on to other activities. Teachers keep your attention on the subject. They also approach a subject logically, taking it one step at a time. On your own, it's tempting toskip parts of the learning process you think you don’t need. That can binder your ability to reallyunderstand the subject.

Learning a subject on your own is a very narrow way of learning. You can only use the informationyou get from the textbook. With a teacher, you get the information in the written materials as wellas the teacher's own knowledge of the topic. Teachers can also provide extra materials to broadenthe scope of what you're learning.

There's nothing wrong with studying on your own, and a learner can always benefit from somequiet study. For the best possible learning, though, a good teacher is the biggest help you canhave.

18 What are some important qualities of a good supervisor(boss)? Use specific detailsand examples to explain why these qualities are important.

Even though job situations can be very different, there are several qualities that all good supervisorhave in common, A good boss treats all her employees fairly. She doesn't single out one employeefor better(or worse)treatment than the others. A poor supervisor has favorites. Sometimes she'lleven use her favorites to spy on other employees. She expects them to tell her what the othersare saying about her. This can cause a lot of bad feeling among employees.

A good supervisor gives clear and understandable directions. She doesn't constantly change hermind about what she wants employees to do. She also doesn't get angry with an employee who isconfused and needs her to explain the directions again or more fully. Delegating authority well isanother quality of a good supervisor. She knows how to use the skills of her employees to bestadvantage. A poor supervisor insists on doing everything herself. She is unwilling to give anyauthority to others.

A good boss evaluates her employees on a reasonable ser of criteria, not on how she feels aboutthem personally. And she lets the employees know what those criteria are, so they have a fairchance of meeting them.

She gives both praise and criticism in a straightforward manner. She also offers guidance whenneeded. A poor supervisor will criticize without giving any suggestions on how to improve.

Most importantly, a good supervisor set the standards for her employee by her own behavior. Sheworks hard and treats employees like valuable assets to the company. This promotes good moraleamong her workers, and this is of great benefit to her business.

47 Resolving problems between individuals or groups isimportant. What should be considered or kept in mind inresolving problems between individuals or groups? Usespecific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Conflict resolution is very important. The technique is the samewhether it’s between people, between groups, or betweennations. You need to find a common ground; you need to learnwhat both sides want; and you need to plan steps to resolve the conflict.

Finding a common ground is the first important step in any conflict resolution. For example, if twocountries are fighting, a mediator could do what is the single thing that both counties areconcerned about. One answer might be their children’s future. Agreeing on the future of theirchildren is an important first step.

The next step would be to try to determine what both sides want for their children. For example, Country X says, “Security from Country Y.” Country Y says, “Security from Country X.” Obviously, they feel threatened by one another.

The third step is to plan steps to resolve the conflict. A mediator might ask what would make eachside more secure: Stronger borders? Increased trade? Smaller military forces? Once the steps areestablished, the peace process has begun.

I don’t mean to imply that this is easy. Resolving long-term disputes is not simple. But the processcan be broken down into three steps (common ground, needs, steps to resolution) and thenrepeated and repeated until there is peace.

48 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Self-confidence is the mostimportant factor for success in school or at work. Use specific reasons and examples tosupport your opinion.

Self-confidence is one very important factor for success, but there are two other equally importantfactors: knowledge and sensitivity. All three are required for success in any area.

One needs to feel one can accomplish a task. If one thinks he or she is incapable of doingsomething, he or she will not succeed. For example, if you think you are going to do poorly on anexam, you will probably do poorly. It is important to tell yourself that you can do well. If you haveconfidence in yourself, you will probably do well.

Even if you have a great deal of self-confidence, you won’t be able to well on the exam withoutknowledge. You have to understand your subject very well. With knowledge and self-confidenceyou have a better chance of success.

In areas other than exams, you will need to be sensitive to your surroundings in order to succeed. You will need to know whether to boast about yourself or be modest; you will need to knowwhether you should take the lead or let others. This is a difficult skill to learn, but an important onefor success.

To be successful in school or work, you need three qualities: self-confidence, knowledge, andsensitivity. Along, none of these factors will help you succeed. But together, they ensure success.

19 Should governments spend more money onimproving roads and highways, or should governmentsspends more money on improving public transportation ( buses, trains, subways)? Why? Use specific reasons anddetails to develop your essay.

Governments should definitely spend more money on improvingall forms of public transportation. These include buses, subwaysand trains. This is the best way to preserve natural resources and reduce pollution.

As a planet, we’re dealing with a finite amount of natural resources. Once they're gone, they can'tbe replaced. They can't fill our need for oil and gasoline forever. But we seem to forget that andconsume them at an incredible rate. In wealthier counties, some families have two or three cars. Assoon as teenagers get their driver's licenses, they’re given cars so their parents won't have to drivethem places.

Public transportation hasn't been sufficiently developed. Because of this, suburban areassurrounding cities have been allowed to sprawl more and more widely. This means that peoplecan't even go to the store without having to hop into the car. Everything is too far away fromwhere they live. If there were better and more frequent public transportation, people would be ableto give up their cars for local driving.

As a result of all the cars being driven, we’re dealing with terrible pollution problems. In big cities, there are days during the summer when the elderly and people with respiratory problems areadvised not to leave the house. Ten years ago this was unheard of! Now it's the norm. Publictransportation would cut down considerably on air pollution.

Public transportation also encourages a sense of community. People who travel to work togetherall the time get to know each other. Car isolate us from neighbors. However, people feel they needto drive because they can't depend on public transportation to fit their schedules. If more moneywere available, buses, subways and trains could run 24 hours a day. Then they would be availableall the time to the people who need them.

I always try to take public transportation whenever possible, and I encourage friends andneighbors to try it too. I think we must support public transportation in order to create a betterworld.

20 It is better for children to grow up in the countryside than in a big city. Do youagree or disagree? Use specific reasons and examples to develop your essay.

There are advantages and disadvantages to a childhood in either the country or a city. It's hard tosay which is better. Growing up in the country means a certain amount of isolation. You're in asmall town or on a armband not with a lot of people. Even more important, the people you meeteveryday tend to be just like you. Most will be the same race as you, have the same backgroundas you, and will have gone to the same school as you. In the city, the people you meet aredifferent. There are different races and different cultures. You get a more interesting mix.

City people tend to come from a lot of different places and move around a lot. So, there isn't thesense of community in the city that you have in the country. People in the city can live in thesame apartment building for twenty years and never get to know their neighbors. In the country, everybody knows everybody. For a child, this means the country is more secure. A child can getlost or hurt in the city and have no one to turn to. In the country, everyone’s a neighbor. Peoplein the country feel connected to each other.

A child growing up in the city has the advantages of a lot of interesting and exciting place to visit. He or she can go to the zoo, museum, art galleries and concerts. There are a lot of restaurantswith different kinds of food. It’s easy to see every new movie that comes out. Child in the countrydon't have a lot of these activities nearby.

All in all, I think a childhood in the city is better because it prepares you more for what real life is like.

37. Countries, businesses, and schools are three areasthat need good leaders. Choose one of these three areasand describe the most important qualities of a leader inthat area. Explain why these qualities are important, using specific examples and details.

The principal of a school is one of our first encounters with afigure of authority. Consequently, he or she must be a goodexample of a leader. The principal must be firm, fair and foresighted which are important qualities ofa principal.

When a principal announces a rule, you must understand that he or she means it. If a rule requiresall students to be in their seats when the bell rings, the rule must be enforced. If students are outof their seats, they should be punished. If a rule requires that students not wear bats in school, therule must be enforced. If students wear bats, the bats must be taken away from them. A principalmust be firm.

When a principal enforces a rule, you must understand that he or she will treat everyone equally. IfI get caught eating at my desk, I must receive the same punishment that my classmate got whenshe got caught eating at her desk. If a sophomore is late for school, he or she must receive thesame punishment that a senior would. A principal must be fair.

When a principal establishes a rule, you must understand that he or she has a good reason for it. Ifa rule requires that students must participate in extracurricular sports, you should understand thatthe principal knows that a strong body as well as a strong mind will help us in the future. If a rulerequires that students must do two hours of volunteer work in the community each week, youshould understand that the principal knows that close involvement in the community builds strongcharacter. A principal must be foresighted.

A principal’s job is not as easy one. I only hope that in the future, I can model my own leadershipabilities on the ones I observed in school. I hope I can be as firm, fair, and foresighted as myprincipal.

38 Choose one of the following transportation vehicles and explain why you think it haschanged people’s lives.

1)Automobiles

2)Bicycles

3)Airplanes

Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

An airplane is a form of transportation that has changed people’s lives. Thanks to the plane, ourlives are now faster, more exciting, and more convenient that before.

You cannot deny that a plane is fast. For example, the Concorde flies at supersonic speed. Abusinessman can leave Paris at 11 a.m. in the morning and arrive in New York at 8 a.m. the samemorning in time for a day’s work. Many business people in Europe will fly to London for a noonmorning in time for a day’s work. Many business people in Europe will fly to London for a noonmeeting and then return home to Rome or Madrid for dinner.

It is always exciting to take a plane trip. When you take a trip by plane, you know that you mightcross many time zones, many oceans, and many countries. When you get off the plane, youcould be in a place that speaks a different language. A plane is like a magician’s trick. You get in abox and you come out somewhere totally different.

Nothing can beat the convenience of a plane. In the old days, it might take you days to do whatthe plane can do it an hour. Boats, for example, only leave on certain days of the week and take along time to get to their destination. Planes give you the option to leave several times a day andget you to your destination quickly.

Although other forms of transportation may be more comfortable, none has changed the way wedo business and live our lives more than the plane. Thanks to the speed, excitement, andconvenience of the planes, our lives are richer.

15 Neighbors are the people who live near us. In youropinion, what are the qualities of a good neighbor? Usespecific details and examples in your answer.

If you have a good neighbor, you are a lucky person. You havesomeone who cares about your needs and your property, whois helpful in the little day-to-day situations that come up, andwho is supportive in times of crisis.

A good neighbor is someone who, for instance, understands that your children may occasionallyrun across his lawn, even though you tell them not to. He'll realize that children can be carelessabout things like that, and he won't make a big fuss about it unless it becomes a regular thing. Inthe same vein, he knows that you'll understand if some of the trash from his trash cans blowsacross into your yard. IN other words, he is sensitive to the unintentional things that can happen. He doesn't make a big deal about them.

A good neighbor is also respectful of your property. For example, she asks your permission beforedoing anything that interferes with what's yours. This means she wouldn't plant a huge tree inbetween your houses without asking how you feel about it. If she wanted to put up a fence, shewould let you know first. She might work with you to decide where it should be placed. Maybe thetwo of you would even split the cost.

A good neighbor would lend you some milk if you ran out . She'd give you a ride to work if yourcar was broken, and let your children stay at her house in the evening if you got stuck workingovertime. You would do the same for her. Both of you would help make the other's life easier.

when something really awful happens to you, like a death in the family, a good neighbor willvolunteer to help in any way he can. This could mean something small, like making some casserolesto put in your freezer to feed vesting relatives, Or it could mean something big, like helping you getthrough the sadness of the funeral.

I think only someone who has experienced a bad neighbor can really appreciate a good one! Agood neighbor can be a good friend. He or she can make all the difference in the world to your life.

16 It has recently been announced that a new restaurant may be built in yourneighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specific reasons anddetails to support your answer.

I can see both advantages and disadvantages to having a new restaurant built in ourneighborhood. I'm worried about traffic and how it will affect our neighborhood. However, I thinkthat it will benefit local businesses and increase appreciation for our neighborhood. Overall, I think itis a good idea.

Traffic congestion is always a concern when you build something new. Our streets are narrow, withparking on both sides. More cars traveling through the neighborhood could cause a lot ofcongesting. Traffic means parking problems, too. Our neighborhood has very few garagesattached to the houses. Most of us depend on finding a space to park on the street. If the newrestaurant is built, we’ll be competing for those spaces with the restaurant's patrons. Plus, if therestaurant offers wallet parking, it'll be even worse. Valet parkers work in teams to grab everypossible space available on the street.

I'm also concerned about the type of patrons this new restaurant will bring into our neighborhood. A family restaurant wouldn't be a problem. However, if it's going have a bar and dancing, thenthere could be problems. The restaurant would stay open later, and people leaving the restaurantmight be drunk. Who wouldn't worry about rowdy customers staggering around ourneighborhood in the early morning hours, looking for their cars?

I have to admit, though, there are advantages to a new restaurant. Our neighborhood couldcertainly use the jobs the restaurant would provide. Not only that, the money neighborhoodresidents would earn there would likely be spent at other neighborhood businesses. This would givea boost to those businesses and make our neighborhood more prosperous.

A new restaurant would also attract a lot of people to our neighborhood. They could see what anice area this is to live. That might attract new residents to the neighborhood. That would be agood thing, because we've been losing residents to the suburbs the last couple of years.

There are a lot of details to consider, but all in all, I support the idea of this new restaurant in ourneighborhood.

70 Do you agree or disagree with the followingstatement? Teachers should be paid according to howmuch their students learn. Give specific reasons andexamples to support your opinion.

Some communities have decided to base evaluations ofteachers on students’ test scores. It’s these evaluations thatdetermine how much teachers will be paid. I don’t think this is avery good idea for several reasons.

First of all, if teachers’ salaries are going to be based on how much students learn, then someteachers will start to teach their students only what they need to get high test scores. This meansthat students will miss out on a lot of education that can’t be measured on a test.

For instance, one of the best methods to help students understand a subject is encouraging themto discuss it. A common practice is to divide the class into groups, have each group discuss thesubject, and then have them report back to the whole class. This kind of shared learning can leadto a fuller understanding. It also teaches students how to discuss and debate ideas. However, itdoesn’t supply facts to show off on a test.

Another problem with basing teachers’ salaries on how much their students learn is that teachersmay ignore students who have learning difficulties. Some students learn more slowly than othersand need more personal attention. If a teacher is worried about tests, he may feel he has to pushthe majority of the students to cram facts. That effort will take all his time. He won’t be able to helpthe less able students.

It’s true there are teachers who “burn out” after many years teaching and just don’t care howmuch their students learn. Basing their salaries on their students’ test scores may improve theirefforts. However, it’s not fair for the majority of teachers. They deserve and need to be judged byother criteria.

71 If you were asked to send one thing representing your country to an internationalexhibition, what would you choose? Why? Use specific reasons and details to explainyour choice.

If I were asked to send one thing representing my country to an international exhibition. I’d sendsomething unexpected: one week’s worth of television programming. These programs would bestrepresent my county. They show how the citizens of my country live and what they think andfeel.

The dramas on television are very realistic. They show how people in different parts of the countrygo about their daily lives. They show how they earn their livings, how they deal with crime, andhow they interact with each other. The dramas also show how people in various economic groupsdress, what kinds of houses they live in, and what kinds of education their children receive.

The comedies indicate what people in my country think is funny. Even though the situations areexaggerated, they reflect how my culture deals with very basic human situations. Peopleeverywhere understand falling in love, raising a family, and earning a living.

The documentaries show what issues we’re concerned about and how we want to resolve them. Some documentaries tell stories from our history. Others look into the future. They speculate onhow we’ll function as a country in the new millennium. Still others examine our political system, itsfailures and its successes.

The sports programs show what we think about winning and losing. They demonstrate how wefeel about fairness. Some of the wealthiest people in our country are the athletes we watch playingprofessional sports. This, also, is a reflection of our values.

Television is a common cultural experience in my country. It reflects my country’s uniquepersonality. I think it would be the perfect way to show what my county is like.

62 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? One should never judge a person by external appearances. Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

In most cases, one should never judge a person by external appearances. Sometimes when I walk down the street at night, I avoid people who are acting tough and loud, but in general, I prefer to reserve judgment until I get to know someone. Judging someone by external appearance can be deceptive. Judgments based on external appearances prevent you from getting to know a person reinforce stereotypes, and are superficial and limiting.

In high school, I stayed away from students who were called the “bad students” because they dressed a certain way. I wanted nothing to do with them. I later had the chance to meet one of these “bad students” because of our mothers, we started talking and I realized that we had a lot in common. My impression of him was very different once I got to know him.

If you form an opinion of someone based on stereotypes, you risk never getting to know someone who is different. You may are be missing out on an opportunity to make a good friend. In addition, you are reinforcing that stereotype by believing it without given the person a chance. If you take the time to get to know the person, you might become friends.

Judging people by external appearance is superficial and often unfair. After all, you don't know what circumstances the person might be facing or who the person really is. Perhaps the person comes from a less fortunate family than you and cannot afford the kind of stylish clothes your friends wear. However, that does not mean the person is less intelligent or interesting than you are.

People should not be naive about new people they meet, but should take time to get to know them. External appearance often does not tell us anything about a person. Judging someone by their appearance is misleading, reinforces stereotypes, and is limiting. Doing so could prevent you from making a true friend.

63 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? A person should never make an important decision alone. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

A person should never make an important decision alone. Important decisions should be well thought out. People who know you well, know what is best for you. People close to you can give you good advice, give you a different perspective, or share their own experience.

When I had difficulty deciding which classes to take in college, I talked to my teachers and advisors. They had the knowledge and expertise to help me determine which classes were the best ones to take for my future career. Without their advice, I might have chosen unsuitable courses.

In college, I had convinced myself that I was not good enough to act in the school play. Therefore, I decide not to audition even though drama bad always been my passion. The day of the auditions, a friend of mine asked me why I wasn't auditioning. When I told her I didn't feel I was good enough, she was shocked. She was able to provide me with another perspective on myself and my talents. I rethought my decision and tried out... and got a lead in the play.

Last year when I was trying to decide whether or not I should study overseas, I talked to my friend. This was the best thing I could have done. This was a big decision for me because I had never been overseas on my own and I wasn't sure I could do it. She had studied overseas the previous year. She told me about the challenges and opportunities I might encounter and helped me make the right decision. I went and it was amazing!

Whenever I am faced with an important decision, I seek advice from others so that I am well-informed and have the benefit of their perspective and experience.

64 A company is going to give some money either tosupport the arts or to protect the environment. Whichdo you think the company should choose? Use specificreasons and examples to support your answer.

Deciding between supporting the arts and protecting theenvironment is a difficult choice to make, but I think I wouldchoose protecting the environment. Arts help to maintain ourculture and serve as a source of entertainment. However, weneed a healthy environment in order to survive so we must protect it. We need to protect theenvironment now to help prevent health problems, to maintain the ecosystem, and to preservethe Earth for our children.

Pollution from factories and cars can cause damage to the environment. Moreover, pollutioncauses health problems particularly for children and the elderly who have weaker immunesystems. We need to ensure that there are controls on the amount of pollution when possible soas to prevent health problems caused by breathing dirty air.

We also need to pay attention to the ecosystem. Trees, plant life, and people all depend on eachother. An unhealthy environment can have harmful effects on the ecosystem. For example, if aplant dies because of changes to the environment and that plant is food for a animal, that animalwon't have any food. If humans use that animal as a food source, there could be big problems.

If we do not respect our environment now, it will continue to get worse and our children will sufferthe consequences. They would not have the same quality of air to breathe or natural beauty toadmire. That would be sad.

Without clean air to breathe, a healthy ecosystem, and a future for our children, the human racewould not survive. That's why protecting our environment is important. If we have a healthyenvironment, we have healthy children who will be able to participate and appreciate the arts.

65 Some movies are serious designed to make the audience think. Other movies aredesigned primarily to amuse and entertain. Which type of movie do you prefer? Usespecific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Movies have the power to make you laugh, cry, or think about an issue that you might nototherwise think about. Although I sometime watch movies that are serious in nature, I prefermovies that amuse and entertain. When I see an amusing movie it makes me relax, laugh, andkeeps me in good spirits.

After a long day at school and work, I need a break and something to take my mind off of thetroubles of the day. I can do that with an entertaining movie. When I watch an amusing movie, Idon’t have to think. I just want to sit back and relax. After a movie, I then feel ready to get backto work on my studies.

Amusing movies make people laugh. Laughing is important for the soul. Laughing not only makespeople feel good, but also connects people. When people laugh together, they become friends.

After watching an entertaining movie, which relaxes me and makes me laugh, I feel good. When Ifeel good I can focus more on other important things like my studies and work. Being in goodspirits makes me feel better about myself and gives me a positive outlook on life.

While I can appreciate serious movies that make you think, I prefer to be amused and entertainedafter a long day of work. Such movies allow me to take a break from the rigors of life by makingme laugh and putting me in a good mood.

57 Do you agree or disagree with the followingstatement? Face-to-face communication is better thanother types of communication, such as letters, email, ortelephone calls. Use specific reasons and details tosupport your answer.

I would have to agree that face-to-face communication is thebest type of communication. Face-to-face communication caneliminate misunderstandings immediately, cement relationships, and encourage continuedinteraction.

If you are talking to someone directly, you can see right away if they don’t understand you. Aperson’s body language will tell you they disagree or don’t follow your line of thought. You canrepeat yourself or paraphrase your argument. If you had sent an e-mail, the person may havemisinterpreted what you wanted to say. He or she could be insulted and you would have to wastetime explaining yourself in another e-mail.

When you talk face-to-face, you communicate with more than words. You communicate withyour eyes and your hands. You communicate with your whole body. People can sense that youreally want to communicate with them. This energy bonds people together. Your relationship witha person can grow much stronger when you communicate in person.

Face-to-face encounters tend to go on longer than other forms of communication. An e-mail lastsa second; a telephone call, a few minutes. However, when you meet face-to-face, you’ve made aneffort to meet with the person, and the person has made an effort to meet with you. You willprobably spend longer together talking. The longer you talk, the more you say. The more yousay, the stronger your relationship will be.

In summary, if you want to establish a relationship with another human being, the best way istalking face-to-face. When you communicate directly, you can avoid misunderstandings that mayoccur in writing. You can communicate on levels other than just words and you can spend moretime doing it.

58 Some people like to do only what they already do well. Other people prefer to trynew things and take risks. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples tosupport your choice.

I am not a risk taker. I like to do just those that I am proficient at. I have learned that it is better tofocus my attention, do one thing and do it well, and not try anything new.

When I was younger, I was always experimenting with a lot of different things. First I wanted to bea dress designer so I studied drawing. I couldn’t’t draw so I decided to be a historian. That suitedme perfectly since all I had to do was sit in a library and read. I learned to focus my attention onone subject.

I am a very good reader and history is very interesting to me. I decided not to read any othersubject. I only read history books. I even focused my attention on Chinese history. I only readhistory books on Chinese history. I do one thing and I do it well.

I don’t like to try anything new. If I read things in another area, I don’t do well. I don’t understandAmerican history or English history. The names are confusing and the stories not interesting to me. I don’t want to learn about anything else. Chinese history is my subject.

I may seem a bit stubborn, but I have learned what makes me happy. I don’t like to take a riskwith new things. I like to focus my attention on one subject, do it well, and not try anything new.

68 Some people think governments should spend as much money as possible exploring outer space (for example, traveling to the Moon and to other planets). Other people disagree and think governments should spend this money for our basic needs on Earth. Which of these two opinions do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

When we see photographs of starving children, it’s hard to say that we should spend billions of dollars on space exploration. But that’s just what we should do. Children don’t need to be starving, but we do need to explore space. Right now, we have enough money to feed every person on Earth. Children are starving because of mismanagement of resources and simple human greed. Those are problems we can solve right here on earth. That shouldn’t stop our need to find out what’s beyond our own solar system.

We may never make contact with whatever other species there may be out there in space. Even so, there are still two very practical and positive consequences of space exploration. One is a certainty and the other is a possibility. The certainty is medical research. Yes, we can conduct research here on earth. But much of the research done in space, for example, on the effects of gravity on bone marrow, is making a difference in medicine here on Earth. When we do research in space, we also learn more about space exploration. Also, many of the inventions that were developed for space travel have been adapted to good use on Earth.

The possible consequence of space exploration is finding another planet human beings can colonize. Overpopulation is a huge problem on our planet. People are living longer, more healthful lives, and that’s a good thing. But it means there are fewer people dying and more people being born. Eventually we’ll have less space, fewer resources, and major distribution problems. If we can find another planet to live on, we can relieve the problems of overpopulation on our planet.

It’s a tragedy that there are human beings suffering on Earth. However, if we wait until everyone has a perfect life, we will never explore space—and that , too, would be a kind of tragedy.

69 People have different ways of escaping the stress and difficulties of modern life. Some read; some exercise; others work in their gardens. What do you think are the best ways of reducing stress? Use specific details and examples to support your answer.

Stress is one of our biggest enemies. It affects our health, our personality, and our relationships with others. In order to get rid of stress. I first have to identify the cause. I have different antidotes to stress depending on the cause. The most common types of stress I face are with work, with friends, and with myself.

Work-related stress is the easiest to combat. I simply stop working for a while. If I find myself picking up the same piece of paper four times a day and never doing anything with it, I blame stress. The best thing to do is to do something else. Sometimes, I get up from my desk and go down the hall to talk to my colleagues, but I don’t talk about work related subjects. Other times, I will take a short walk around the block and get some fresh air. Work-related stress can be cured by getting away from the work.

Stress caused by friends is more difficult to cure. Often the cause is more complicated. My friends could have a personal problem that causes them and me both anxiety. Or my friends could be angry at me or vice versa. Here, the cure for stress is talking about the problem and being with my friends. Unlike work, you can’t walk away from your friends.

Stress I cause myself is also not so easy to get rid of. If I feel bothered by an exam or anxious about the future, there is very little for me to do. I just have to tell myself that I can only do my best and leave the rest up to fate.

It is important to try to lead a stress-free life. If you can avoid stress by walking away form it (like at work), talking through it (like with your friends) or facing it head on (like with yourself), your health, personality and relationships will benefit.

55 Some people prefer to work for a large company. Others prefer to work for a small company. Which wouldyou prefer? Use specific reasons and details to supportyour choice.

I would prefer to work in a large company rather than a smallone. A large company has more to offer in terms ofadvancement, training, and prestige.

In a large company, I can start at an entry-level position and work myself up to the top. I couldstart in the mailroom and, once I know the company, can apply for a managerial position. In asmall company, there is not as much room to grow.

In a large company, there are a variety of jobs. I could work in sales, in marketing, in distribution, inshopping, or in any department I applied for. I could be trained in a variety of positions and wouldhave valuable experience. In a small company, there would not be the same opportunity.

In a large company, there would be more prestige. I could brag to my friends that I worked forone of the biggest companies in the world. I would always have something to talk about when Imet strangers. If I worked in a small company, I would always have to explain what the companydid.

Working for a small company would not give me the same opportunities for advancement or on-the-job training as working for a larger company would. Nor would I be as proud to work for asmall company---unless the small company was my own.

56 People work because they need money to live. What are some other reasons thatpeople work? Discuss one or more of these reasons. Use specific examples and detailsto support your answer.

Although people work to earn money, money is not the main reason people stay in their jobs. They also work because they enjoy working, they receive job satisfaction, and they like the senseof accomplishment.

Most people work for work’s sake. They enjoy going to an office, or store, or school each day. They like to interact with other people. They like to help people solve problems, learn something, orget a product. People like to help other people.
