Imagine that you and your friend are doing a school project "Work throughout the life". You have found some illustrations and want to share the news. Leave a voice message to your friend. In 2.5 minutes be ready to:
— explain the choice of the illustrations for the project by briefly describing them and noting the differences;
— mention the advantages (1–2) of completing schoolwork and working for an employer;
— mention the disadvantages (1–2) of completing schoolwork and working for an employer;
— express your opinion on the subject of the project — whether you prefer work as a way to learn or a way to earn money.
You will speak for not more than 3 minutes (12–15 sentences). You have to talk continuously.
Hey, Kate. You know that? I’ve just found two pictures suitable for our project "Work throughout the life". Let me tell you a bit more about them.
They are relevant to our project because in both pictures there are people working hard. In the first photo there is a girl doing her homework. She is at home. The exercise she is doing right now seems to be challenging because the girl looks confused. In the second photo there is a man in the office. He’s doing his work. It should be difficult too, because he also looks puzzled. Obviously, these pictures are different in the kind of work people are doing. It seems to me that the little girl is doing her homework, and the man is managing his duties at work. They are also working in different settings — the girl is working at home, while the man is in the office.
In my opinion, completing schoolwork and working for an employer have their advantages. For instance, completing their school homework helps schoolchildren be well-educated, while working in an office, for example, is much more profitable. Of course, the types of working have disadvantages too. As for schoolchildren, they can feel in vain as no clear reward is given for doing their homework. However, working for an employer usually doesn't lead to personal development.
As for me I prefer doing homework to receive new knowledge and become more and more educated. And after the graduation I'll start working like the rest of the people.
So, shall we use these photos in our project? Call me when you’re ready to discuss if we can use them. Bye-bye.
