TOPIC 57 
 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Face-to-face 
communication is better than other types of communication, such as 
letters, email, or telephone calls. Use specific reasons and details to 
support your answer. 
I would have to agree that face-to-face communication is the best type of 
communication. Face-to-face communication can eliminate 
misunderstandings immediately, cement relationships, and encourage 
continued interaction. 
If you are talking to someone directly, you can see right away if they don’t 
understand you. A person’s body language will tell you they disagree or 
don’t follow your line of thought. You can repeat yourself or paraphrase 
your argument. If you had sent an e-mail, the person may have 
misinterpreted what you wanted to say. He or she could be insulted and you 
would have to waste time explaining yourself in another e-mail. 
When you talk face-to-face, you communicate with more than words. You 
communicate with your eyes and your hands. You communicate with your 
whole body. People can sense that you really want to communicate with 
them. This energy bonds people together. Your relationship with a person 
can grow much stronger when you communicate in person. 
Face-to-face encounters tend to go on longer than other forms of 
communication. An e-mail lasts a second; a telephone call, a few minutes. 
However, when you meet face-to-face, you’ve made an effort to meet with 
the person, and the person has made an effort to meet with you. You will 
probably spend longer together talking. The longer you talk, the more you 
say. The more you say, the stronger your relationship will be. 
In summary, if you want to establish a relationship with another human 
being, the best way is talking face-to-face. When you communicate directly, 
you can avoid misunderstandings that may occur in writing. You can 
communicate on levels other than just words and you can spend more time 
doing it. 
TOPIC 58 
 Some people like to do only what they already do well. Other people 
prefer to try new things and take risks. Which do you prefer? Use 
specific reasons and examples to support your choice. 
I am not a risk taker. I like to do just those that I am proficient at. I have 
learned that it is better to focus my attention, do one thing and do it well, and 
not try anything new. 
When I was younger, I was always experimenting with a lot of different 
things. First I wanted to be a dress designer so I studied drawing. I couldn’t’t 
draw so I decided to be a historian. That suited me perfectly since all I had to 
do was sit in a library and read. I learned to focus my attention on one 
subject. 
I am a very good reader and history is very interesting to me. I decided not 
to read any other subject. I only read history books. I even focused my 
attention on Chinese history. I only read history books on Chinese history. I 
do one thing and I do it well. 
I don’t like to try anything new. If I read things in another area, I don’t do 
well. I don’t understand American history or English history. The names are 
confusing and the stories not interesting to me. I don’t want to learn about 
anything else. Chinese history is my subject. 
I may seem a bit stubborn, but I have learned what makes me happy. I don’t 
like to take a risk with new things. I like to focus my attention on one 
subject, do it well, and not try anything new. 
 TOPIC 59 
 Some people believe that success in life comes from taking risk or 
chance. Others believe that success results from careful planning. In 
your opinion, what does success come from? Use specific reasons and 
examples to support your answer. 
Nothing ventured. Nothing gained. If our great explorers and scientists did 
not live by this creed, where would we be? I think that we must all take risks 
in our lives, but these must be calculated risks. Like the great thinkers of our 
time, we must plan carefully, seize all opportunities, and reevaluate our 
plans. 
There is no such thing as a chance occurrence. Columbus in his search for 
the Indies drew maps, plotted his route carefully, and set out. Madam Curie 
worked diligently in her laboratory recording every aspect of her 
experiments. You need to have a careful plan so you can measure your 
success. 
Even with a careful plan, changes occur. Columbus was looking for the 
Indies, but ended up in the Caribbean. Lewis and Clark were looking for a 
river passage west, but discovered much more. You have to be ready to take 
advantage of new things as they occur. 
When things go against plan, you must be ready to change direction. 
Columbus didn’t bring back spices from the East Indies, he brought back 
gold from the West Indies. It is important to see the positive side of things. 
Make your mistakes work for you. 
You will never succeed in life if you don’t take chance. But before you start, 
you must plan carefully so you are ready to take advantage of every 
opportunity and turn mistakes to your advantage.
