PART – 1 INTRO PART
What is your name?
My name is Fatique Raqi.
How may I address you?
You may address me as Fatique.
May I see your ID?
Sure, here you go.
How many hours do you sleep every day?
I have to admit that I am not sleeping much recently, just about 5 hours a day. I’m currently working and studying at the same time. That’s why I have to deal with tons of schoolwork as well as the overwhelming workload at my workplace. And of course, this does not allow me to have much time to sleep in a day.
Is it necessary to take a nap every day?
Absolutely, I think napping is a great way to recharge my batteries and refresh my mind. For me, taking nap after long hours is like hitting the restart button in my brain.
Do old people sleep a lot? Why?
I don’t think so. Most of the elderly I know have to suffer from insomnia, which is a sleep disorder that people may have when they reach an old age. Therefore, they can hardly sleep at all.
Who gave you your name?
When it came to choosing my name, it was my dad who had the final word. Actually, most of my family members including my mom and my grandparents agreed with the name as well.

PART – 2 CUE CARD
Describe a person who does well in work
You should say:
• Who the person is
• How do you know this person
• What kinds of work this person does
And explain why this person can do well
SAMPLE ANSWER
Recently I took a job as a maths teacher at an International school. Describing a person who does well at work makes me think of the head of the Maths department at my school, Mr Lawrence aka Laurie. I met Laurie in the school cafeteria over coffee and we began to talk about his role as the head of Maths.
Laurie told me he’s been a maths teacher since 1985 so that’s… 33 years in the trade. He loves his job, and he said he’d be a Maths teacher for 500 hundred years if I he didn’t die of old age first. To be honest, I was quite taken aback by this comment. I always get a feeling somewhere between admiration and sympathy for teachers who commit almost every aspect of their life to their work. Admiration because of the dedication to their students and their craft; sympathy because they have given up so much to become the teacher they are today.
It is precisely this quality, though, that explains why Laurie a person who does well at work. His work and his life are intimately linked, and if Laurie wants to lead a good life, this is almost synonymous with him being a good teacher.

What work skills do you think will be most important in the future?
It seems obvious now that computers will continue to play a vital role in all areas of the economy for the foreseeable future. If you cannot use a computer, then a large number of jobs are off-limits to you. Computer skills will be essential in the future as more and more jobs require a computer to be done effectively. The information technology sector has seen phenomenal growth over the past few years and this is not likely to stop any time soon. As more and more workplaces become fully integrated with computers, computer specialists will also be in greater demand as these systems need to be maintained and set up.
What are the differences between high school education and university education?
High school education is quite broad and contains education in a large number of subjects. It’s often compulsory to study core subjects such as math, science, English and Chinese. This prepares all high-school students with a wide range of basic understanding. University education is much more specialized and students can choose most of their classes. If you want to study 16th century pottery then you can. The work is a lot more in-depth at university level as students choose a subject that they find particularly fascinating. Of course, the work is also a lot harder as universities educate at a higher level than high school does.
