numerous stressful days.
PART 2: Solution discussion (4’)
Situation: you have a cousin who wants to improve his/her English successfully.
There are three options: attending an English course at an English center,
having a tutor at home, or doing self-study. Which do you think is the best
choice for him/her?
* My cousin should attend an English course at an English center for the
following reasons. The first reason is to have a good environment. When attending
an English center, she will study in class with numerous friends. It is a good
opportunity for her to interact with numerous students. Therefore, her English will be
improved, she will speak fluently, smoothly, and effectively.

The second reason is interacting with native speakers. English center often attracts
people by teaching employees who are native speakers. It is a chance for my cousin
learn the common terms they use in their country—i.e. idioms, slangs, so that her
English is more natural. Native English speakers can enable her to understand the
culture and the language better.

* having a tutor at home is also a good way but its fee is quite expensive.
Moreover, my cousin only interacts with a tutor, so it’s difficult for her to improve
her speaking skill effectively.

* doing self-study is an extremely difficult way. Learners have to find out


themselves knowledge on the Internet and they don’t know what they need to focus
on. To gain the English objectives successfully really make the effort and not give
up.

PART 3: Topic development (5’)


Topic: There are some factors influencing the path to success at our workplace.

family
health Success [your own
ideas]

working
environment

Family is considered a crucial factor that influences the path to success. When
people wanna get a job, they often confine to their family because family is the most
vital motivation. If family doesn’t advocate, they are difficult to succeed. Especially,
parents’ advice and encouragement help them strongly believe their decisions.

Health: Health is also a vital factor to succeed. When we have clear minds, we can
accomplish our tasks quickly and effectively. However, most of us have a tendency
to disregard our health, until getting sick for a long time without taking care of it.

Working environment: a good working environment assists employees to create


productivity and efficient work. Workplaces have a direct impact on employees'
performance in an enormous way. If the environment is comfortable, it will bring
positive energy among employees in order to accomplish their tasks effectively.

Further questions
1. What qualities are necessary for success?
I think that to become a successful person the vital factor is intelligence.
The path to success is really very hard, demand people make effort. When people set
their goals, they have to draw many tactics in order to overcome their challenges.
They need to be intelligent to predict what can occur ahead and prepare ways to
resolve.
The second quality is self-confidence. I found that many successful people talk
about their path to success and what they have in common is they succeed when
they’re really self-confident. So, self-confidence helps people trust their goals and
the way to achieve their objectives.

2. In what ways does success affect people’s behavior?

When people gain the objectives they set before. Their success assists them to be
more self-confident and they stop having doubts about their ability. In addition, they
are more and more creative when starting a new project in their career and their life.
Besides that, they will be more mature and their behavior is kind to other people.
