 Speaking Task 2

Some people prefer card games. Others prefer computer games. Which do you prefer and why? Please include reasons and details in your explanation.

Personally speaking, I prefer computer games to card games because there are more options in computer games and I can be entertained in many different ways through them.

For example, one of my favorite computer games is a flight simulator developed by Microsoft. It is a real-world simulating game with almost all the airports in the world in which you can fly your own plane to wherever you want. Since I am a huge fan of both aviation and travel, this game allows me to feel what it’d be like if I were really flying an airplane and traveling across the globe.

It also helps me relieve my stress from school and other difficult times in life. Therefore, I definitely prefer computer games.

Some people prefer to use electronic mail to communicate with their family and friends whereas others prefer to use the telephone. Which do you prefer and why? Please use examples and reasons to support your answer.

In my opinion, it is more ideal to communicate with my family and friends via the phone. Talking over the phone is more personal and it allows us to hear the tone of voice of the other person, which is crucial to fully understand each other.

For example, I once had an email conversation with a friend and it turned into a hostile argument because we couldn't hear each other’s tone of voice. Later we talked on the phone and resolved the misunderstanding within just two minutes. After this incident, I started to believe that talking on the phone is a more effective and personal way to communicate with others.

Some people prefer to live in the noisy downtown with easy access to the shopping center, library, restaurants, and public transportation while others prefer to live in the quiet suburbs far away from the city center. Which do you prefer and why? Please use examples and reasons to support your answer.

Personally, I prefer to live in a quiet place in the suburbs. Growing up in Shanghai, where most neighborhoods are noisy, I have always wanted to move to the suburbs and live in quietness even if it is far from restaurants and public transportation. Because I work in the city and my work environment is very fast-paced and stressful, living in a quiet place would make me feel relaxed and liberated from the busy world.

For me, maintaining a distance between where I live and where I work is able to stop my mind from thinking about work after I leave the office every day. For these reasons I would choose to live in the quiet suburbs even if they’re less convenient than the city.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: having a relaxing or unhurried life is the most important for a person and why? Please include reasons and examples in your explanation.

In my opinion, having a relaxing life is the most important for anyone because if we’re always feeling nervous and anxious, we are not able to enjoy every moment in life and do things well.

For example, when I was in high school, I was always in a hurry in order to catch up with the deadlines of different assignments. As a result, I didn't know how to enjoy my life as a teenager and was always unhappy.

Later in college, the pace of my life was slower and I was able to learn more about myself. I was feeling fulfilled for most of the time because life was more relaxing and did well on my studies because I was no longer stressed out.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Advertisements have too much influence on what people buy? Explain why. Please include reasons and examples in your explanation.

I don't agree with the statement that advertisements have too much influence on what people buy because the wide availability of information today gives anyone the opportunity to compare and read reviews of different products before making any purchases.

For instance, last month some friends and I came across a new model of camera that was frequently advertised on TV. We decided to do some research online and it turned out that the camera was not as good as it appeared to be in those advertisements and there were many negative reviews about it online. Eventually we decided to buy another model of camera that had never been advertised before based on the information we found online.

Do you agree or disagree? The most important influence that young adults have is from their families. Please include reasons and examples in your explanation.

In my opinion, family members can definitely have the most important influence on young adults because the teenage is the most impressionable age for anyone and whatever we go through with our family during our teenage years has the power to condition our behaviors in adulthood.

For instance, when I was in high school, I was struggling with peer pressure that I was always conscious about my grades and appearance. My family gave me a lot of support and told me that I should just be myself and not worry about competing with others all the time. If it were not for my parents' advice, I would have been so unhappy at school and probably still am as an adult.
