Situation
Your brother has been given the

your family are very proud of him. Decide on a special gift for him to prepare
for his trip abroad.
Task A: Suggest that they give
him cash. Say why.

following would be most useful.
i. cash
ii. a computer
iii. some suitable clothing

Candidate A
Task A: Suggest that they give him cash. Say why.
Good morning to the
examiners and my fellow friends. I’m very happy that my brother has just
received a scholarship to study in England. My relatives and I would like
to give him a special gift. We all think that the best gift is money because it
will be very useful for him.
The first reason is
with cash he can buy the things that he needs when he gets there. There will me
a lot of things that he will need like new books, stationery, clothes and food.
He will also need to pay for transportation like taking the bus or train to go
to the university campus. As we know, it is very expensive in England so
any money we give him will be very useful.
Secondly, my
brother can use the money to buy a mobile phone when he gets toEngland. I think
this is very important in case of emergencies so we can contact him easily.
Furthermore, he can sms us and keep us updated with his
progress in his studies there. Hence, if we really miss him we can just give
him a call.
Finally, I also
think giving him money is the best choice because it is light and doesn’t take
up a lot of space. If we were to give him a computer, books or winter clothes
it will be very heavy and bulky for him to bring to England. Therefore, I
think that it is much easier to bring money and buy those things when he gets
there.
In conclusion,
these are some of the reasons why I think giving him cash is the best choice.
To me, it is the most useful gift we can give him. Thank you.
Candidate B
Task A: You suggest that they give him a computer. Say
why.
A very good morning I bid to one and
all. My relatives and I are very proud of my brother. He has just received a scholarship
to study in England and so we would like to give him a special gift.
We believe that the best present for him is a laptop computer.
Firstly, as a university student, my
brother will have to do many assignments. If he has a laptop computer he can
bring it everywhere and consequently, do his work anytime and anywhere. Thus,
he will not have to share the computers at the computer room with other
students and he will be able to do his work more quickly and efficiently.
Another point is that when he boards
the plane from KLIA to London, he will be able to bring the laptop with
him easily because it is compact and light compared to a desktop computer.
Hence, it will not be too much trouble to transport it to England.
Last but not least, if he has a laptop
he will be able to connect to the internet. This has two main advantages as
firstly, he can do a lot of research online. The world wide web is a fountain
of information so it will be very useful for him to make full use of this
technology. Furthermore, he can keep in touch with friends and family here
in Malaysia by e-mail.
In short, a laptop computer will
prove to be very useful to my brother. He can do his assignments, research for
information and keep in touch with us using it therefore it will make the best
gift. Thank you for listening.
Candidate C
Task A: You suggest that they give him some suitable
clothing. Say why.
To the examiners and my fellow
candidates, a wonderful morning I bid you. My brother was lucky enough to
receive a scholarship to study overseas. We want to send him off with a nice
gift so we have decided to buy him some suitable clothing.
The main purpose for buying him some
suitable clothing is because the weather in England is very different
from the weather in our country. There are four seasons there so he will need
to have different clothes for different situations. For example, we can buy him
some sweaters, cardigans, scarves, snowcaps, thick socks and gloves and many
more. These will definitely keep him warm in winter.
The second reason is we think that he
should have clothes that reflect our Malaysian identity. This is because he
will be a young ambassador for our country so if he has a few sets of
traditional clothing like the Baju Melayu or formal Batik shirts,
I am sure he will not only look good but promote our culture overseas.
Lastly, neat clothes make a good
impression. For instance, if we buy him some everyday clothes like jeans and
trousers with nice shirts and matching ties, this will give him a good feeling
about himself so he will walk a bit straighter and talk a bit wiser. Moreover,
people will look at him and have a good impression about Malaysian students.
To conclude, I think that the best
present to give him is some suitable clothing because it will be very useful
and will reflect positively on him. Thank you very much.
Candidate D
Task A: You suggest that they give him some Malaysian
foodstuff. Say why.
I would like to wish everyone here a
very good morning. As we all know, my brother has won a scholarship to study
in England. Therefore, some relatives and I have decided to give him some
Malaysian foodstuff as a going away present.
First and foremost, one of the main
problems Malaysians face when studying overseas is that it is hard to find
Halal food. We feel it is a good idea to give him some Malaysian foodstuff
because it will take time for him to get used to the place and find out where
to buy Halal food. Thus, in the meantime he can enjoy the Malaysian foodstuff
that we have given to him.
The next reason is because some of
the foodstuff we are used to having here in Malaysia is quite hard to
find in UK. Most students studying overseas really enjoy eating Maggi Mee
andsambal belacan. For instance, it is also hard to find the right
spices for curry and rendangand so on so if we
supply him with enough Malaysian foodstuff, he can eat it whenever he misses
home.
The final point I have is that he can
use the Malaysian foodstuff we give him and cook it for the Westerners there.
Sometimes, universities organise events like Malaysian Night and so he and his
friends can cook some Malaysian specialities for them to taste a bit of our way
of life. Hence, the Malaysian foodstuff will be very useful to promote our
culture.
In a nutshell, giving my brother Malaysian
foodstuff to take with him to England is a good idea. This is because
he will have some familiar food to eat when he misses home and he can also
share it with his new friends. Thank you for listening to my opinion.
Task B: Discuss which of the following
would be most useful.
i. Cash
ii. A computer
iii. Some suitable clothing
iv. Some Malaysian foodstuff
* Work together in your respective
groups and complete the following discussion.
A: Good morning once again to everyone. We are
here to focus on the issue at hand which is
__________________________________________________________. I would like to
invite anyone of you to kickstart this discussion by giving us your point of
view.
B: Allow me to begin. First of all, I’m happy
that our brother has won the scholarship to study in England. Therefore,
we must decide what would be the most useful gift for him. In my opinion, I
strongly believe that _______________
_________________________________________________________________. This is
because I think he can _________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________.
For example,
______________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________.
C: I see your point but how about getting him
______________________________. In this way, he can use it to
___________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________.
D: I don’t quite agree with you because ____________________________________
_________________________________________________________________. I think it
would be more useful if we bought _______________________ for him. Does anyone
agree with me?
A: Yes, I agree with you. To add to your
point, I feel that ______________________
_________________________________________________________________.
This is so he will
___________________________________________________.
C: I’m afraid I don’t see eye to eye with both
of you. Buying that as a present for him is not the most useful gift because
__________________________________
_________________________________________________________________.
Moreover,
________________________________________________________.
Can you all understand what I’m trying to say?
B: Indeed, I do see your point of view but I
still feel that the most useful gift is __________________ because it can
___________________________________. Another reason is
___________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________.
For instance, _______________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________.
D: That’s an interesting perspective and I
agree with you that ___________________
_________________________________________________________________. However, I
think we should consider other points. We should also think about buying him
_______________________________________________________.
If he gets this as a present, he can
______________________________________ and
____________________________________________. Wouldn’t you agree?
A: I’m not sure I understand what you are
saying. Can you explain it again, please.
D: What I mean is we should buy him
_____________________________________ because it will me more useful for him
when he is studying in England. This is because
___________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________.
A: Aaah… I see. Yes, I think it would be a
very useful gift too. This way, he can
_________________________________________________________________.
C: That’s a good point, but don’t you think if
we gave him _____________________ it will be the most useful for him as a student.
I still believe that this is the most useful because
_____________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________.
Remember, we need to think of the best and most
useful choice.
B: I agree with you, Candidate C. In addition,
he can use this gift to _____________
_____________________________________________________________________________________________.
So candidates A & D, what do you guys think?
D: Now that you’ve explained it like that, I also
agree that it will be the most useful. In fact, he could also use it to
_________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________.
A: As for me, I feel that it is also the most
useful. When he arrives at his university in England, he will be able to
____________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________.
C: That’s right. Well, after listening to all
the points on the four choices we have, I think it is time to make a
conclusion.
D: Yes, I think so too. Does everyone agree
that we should give our brother _______________________________________ as a
special going away present?
All: Yes, I agree.
B: In a nutshell, we all agree that
_______________________________ is the best choice because firstly, he can
_________________________________________, secondly,
________________________________________________ and finally
_________________________________________________________________.
Thank you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The
End~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What to conclude if after 10 minutes
of discussion….
A) AGREE = 3, DISAGREE = 1
Conclusion: To conclude, MOST OF US agree that
______________________
is the best choice because ________________________________.
___________________________________________. Thank you.
B) AGREE = 2, DISAGREE = 2
Conclusion: In conclusion, we were unable to make a solid decision
because
SOME OF US stongly believe that the best choice is __________ because
_______________________________________________ whileTHE REST OF US think
that giving him _______________ is the most useful because _________________
___________________________________________. Thank you.
C) ALL DISAGREE
Conclusion: In a nutshell, we were unable to come to an agreement
on which of the four options is the best choice. It seems ALL OF
US strongly believe in our own points so as we have run out of time,
we think that we should each buy him a gift individually. Thank you.
