Part 2: Solution Discussion (4 pts.)
Candidates are required to discuss their solution to ONE situation
presented by the lecturer.
❖ Situation 1: You are planning your holiday. There are three
suggestions: a beach holiday,
a climbing holiday, and a sight-seeing holiday. Which one do you think
is the best choice
for you, and why?

Personally, I would choose a beach holiday. I really enjoy being near

the sea because it helps me feel calm and relaxed. After studying hard at
university, I think it’s important to take a break and rest. At the beach, I
can swim, lie in the sun, and eat seafood. These activities help me forget
stress and feel happy.

A climbing holiday sounds fun, but it’s too tiring for me. I don’t like
doing something that makes me feel exhausted when I want to rest.
Sightseeing is interesting too, but sometimes it feels too busy. You have
to walk a lot and visit many places in a short time.

So for me, a beach holiday is the best. It gives me time to relax, enjoy
nature, and feel fresh again before going back to school.
Situation 2: You are going to graduate from university and look for a
job. Where would you find information: the person who is doing that
job, the Internet, newspaper? Which is the most suitable source of
information for you, and why?

When I am looking for a job, I would mostly use the Internet. It is the
easiest and fastest way to find information about different jobs. There are
many websites like job search platforms where I can see new job listings
every day. I can also search by location, job type, or company, which
helps me save a lot of time.

Besides job listings, the Internet also gives me access to useful

information, such as company reviews, salary ranges, and interview tips.
Many people share their experiences online, so I can learn what it’s like
to work in a certain field before applying.

Talking to someone who is doing the job can also be helpful because they
can give real advice. However, it’s not always easy to find the right
person or to meet them in person. Newspapers are less popular now and
the information may not be updated.

So, for me, the Internet is the most suitable source of information when I
look for a job. It’s fast, convenient, and gives me more choices.

Main Topic: There are several factors that lead to success in life

Hello everyone,
Today, I would like to talk about success in life.
There are many things that can help people become successful.

First of all, education and skills are very important.

If you study hard and learn useful skills, you can get a good job or
start your own business.

Secondly, people need to have a clear vision.

This means knowing what you want in the future and working hard to
achieve your goals.

Next, I think passion is also important.

When you love what you do, you feel happy and try harder every day.

In addition, I believe that never giving up is a key to success.

Even when life is difficult, successful people keep going and don’t quit.

In conclusion, I think education, vision, passion, and not giving up are

all important factors for success in life.
Thank you for listening!
