If you could make one important change in a school that you attended, 
what change would you make? Use reasons and specific examples to 
support your answer. 
 Most of the schools that I attended bad excellent programs and instructors. 
Unfortunately, at one school this was not the case. The foreign language 
program there needed both better planning and better instructors. If I could, I 
would make changes in three major areas. 
 The first step would be to offer third and fourth year language classes. This 
particular school had no language programs above the second year level. 
Students who started language classes in the first year ran out of classes to 
talk by the time they were halfway through the school. This was frustrating 
for those of us who loved learning languages. It also had bad affects when 
we tried to resume language studies in college after a two-year break. 
Next, the foreign language program should be staffed with well-trained 
instructors. The current teachers in the program don’t speak the languages 
well enough. In our classes teachers frequently made errors while the 
students repeated. If the teachers were well-trained, they would be good 
models for the students. 
Finally, the materials in the language courses should be updated. They 
need to use modern technology. Even though the school has a computer 
laboratory, our language class never used it. We were limited to using the 
assigned textbook. If software was available, the students could search the 
Internet for current, real-life materials, such as newspapers from other 
countries. 
Understanding people from other countries depends on being able to 
communicate with them. Poor language instruction makes this impossible. 
Improving the foreign language program would really make a difference to 
the students of the school.

A gift (such as a camera, a soccer ball, or an animal) can contribute to a 
child’s development. What gift would you give to help a child develop? 
Why? Use reasons and specific examples to support your choice. 
 When I was about 10 years old, my older sister gave me a present. It was 
my first real grown-up bicycle: a three-speed, yellow and black, shiny and 
new. I still remember how excited I was. That bicycle was very important to 
me over the next few years. If I wanted to give a gift that would contribute to 
a child’s development, I would choose a bicycle. 
 Bikes are great exercise. They encourage outdoor play. Television and 
video games, which are the most popular children’s activities nowadays, 
involve mostly sitting and starting. Riding a bike makes exercise fun. 
Bikes are convenient transportation, too. Without a bike you have to 
depend on an adult to drive you almost everywhere. With a bike you can go 
farther. You can ride to your friend’s bouses. If your school is close enough, 
you can take yourself to school. You have control over where you go, and 
you’re not always waiting or begging for a ride. Now you can say “Can I go 
……?” instead of “Please take me!” 
To me as a child, a bicycle meant independence. Not only could I could I 
go farther, but no one was watching where I went. The road went past the 
park, the pond, the woods, the 7-11 store, and more. I saw the network of 
little neighborhood roads from a different viewpoint. I could stop anywhere 
and look at whatever I wanted. Everything was my choice. Bike riding was 
active, not passive. 
My bicycle gave me fun exercise, easy transportation, and freedom. For 
all these reasons, I think that a bicycle is a special present for a child.

TOPIC 115 
Some people believe that students should be given one long vacation 
each year. Others believe that students should have several short 
vacations throughout the year. Which viewpoint do you agree with? Use 
specific reasons and examples to support your choice. 
I like the idea of students having several short vacations throughout the 
year. I’m a working parent with two school-age children. Every summer I 
have to come up with a plan for keeping my children safe and entertained for 
three months, while my husband and I are at work. Summer camps are 
expensive, and finding the one your children will enjoy can be a challenge. 
Getting rid of that one long vacation would make life a lot easier. 
Having several shorter vacations would also make it easier to schedule 
vacations. My husband and I both work in small offices with other working 
parents. All of us need vacation time during the same three months. This is 
hard on our businesses and our careers. 
We also find that wherever we go in the summer, it’s crowded. It would 
be nice to go places throughout the year and find smaller crowds. I’m sure 
the attractions themselves would like that better, too. It would be better for 
the economy to spread things out, too. 
I think my children would be more focused on their students if their 
vacation time was divided up throughout the year. The final month of the 
school year, they’re just not paying attention. They’ve been in school for 
nine long months and they don’t have a lot of energy. Plus , they’re 
anticipating vacation time. If vacations were throughout the year, they would 
concentrate better on studies. 
Of course, many older school buildings aren’t air-conditioned, because 
usually people aren’t there during the hottest months. That might be a 
problem, I think, though, that new air-conditioning would be worth the cost. 
During the last few weeks of summer, my children are bored with their long 
vacation. I doubt that would happen if there were several vacations 
throughout the year.
