3 Did your parents teach you the importance of helping others?
My parents have always taught me to help selflessly. One should never expect anything in return. Always remember, they chose you to ask for help.
4 Have you ever refused to help others?
As much as I hate to not help, I did once refuse to help. I was really late for my flight and there was a huge crowd on the road asking for donations. I drove my car past them. I was already late. So if I had waited there, I would have missed the flight.

SAMPLE ANSWER
About ten years ago, as a young, inexperienced teacher, I worked with a man called Tim. He was my colleague but he was also the head teacher of this school, and so he was sort of a supervisor to the other teachers working there. Technically, Tim was our boss, but he didn’t act like a traditional boss. He was professional yet approachable, so you always felt that you could talk to him about things.
I first met Tim when he offered me a job at his school, and from that moment on we got along very well. Tim was a really helpful guy, and he was always happy to share his experience with the less experienced teachers like me. He was non-judgmental, so you didn’t worry about doing something wrong. If you made a mistake at work, Tim would quietly help you make a change so that you didn’t do it that way again.

I remember one time I was teaching a big class and Tim had to observe my teaching methods. This was a very stressful situation for me, but Tim was really helpful. He watched unobtrusively and then at the end of the lesson he gave me lots of useful advice. He didn’t criticize me in any way; instead, he simply told me ways I could improve.
I believe that Tim’s advice helped me to become a much better teacher, and years later I am still incredibly grateful to him for mentoring me.

PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS
In general, why do people help others?
I think it’s the kindness that exists in most human hearts. Many of us have needed some help ourselves from time to time, and we know what it feels like to need something. We know it feels good to receive support from others when we need it. So we want to help others in the same way. Also, as I mentioned before, it is the happiness that we get from helping others in some way.
2 Do you think it’s important to help people who need help?
Of course, it’s important. We have a responsibility to do our part whether it’s in our family, our workplace, or amongst friends. None of us are like little islands with nothing or no one around us. We influence each other and contribute to the atmosphere and environment around us. And just as we want others to help us, we should naturally be willing to help others.

3 How do you feel after you have helped someone?
Usually, I feel very good when I’ve helped someone, even if the help I offered was beyond my limits. If it was a sacrifice, it seems that I am happier than when I began, and sometimes I seem to have more energy or time left for myself. It may sound funny, but sometimes it looks a little like magic how I end up with more time or more money or whatever after I have given some away to another person.
4 Many people only look out for themselves and never think about helping others. What do you think of this attitude?
I think it isn’t right. I know it is common, but it’s a tragic statement of modern life, at least in big cities. I know not everybody is that way, but nowadays a lot of people have become very selfish. It seems that so many people are in such a rush to get rich or get better jobs or into the best schools that they hardly even notice people who need help. Maybe if people were not so absorbed in their worlds, they would able to see other’s needs and would do something about it. At least I hope so.
5 What is the most important way for a country to help visitors?
Probably the most common help needed by foreigners is assisting with the language. I’ve also seen foreigners on the streets who seem to be a little lost. Sometimes they’re looking at their maps trying to find a famous tourist spot, so giving directions is another common way to help foreigners. I’ve done this a few times, and it was an exciting chance to talk to someone from another country.
