TOEIC SPEAKING - Part 5 1. Do you think it’s useful to check information about a product on the company’s website before buying it? I don’t think it’s useful to check information about a product on the company’s website before buying it. The main reason is that information is often incomplete. Because companies want to sell more products, they tend to mention only the good features of the product on their website and hide the bad ones. Therefore, it is very difficult for customers to have a complete understanding of the product. Let me tell you my story. Last year, I bought a smartphone after checking information on the website. According to the description on the website, it can take beautiful photos and it can store many files and apps. When I received the phone, it did take beautiful photos and it did store many files and apps. However, it also ran out of battery quickly, which is not mentioned on the website. If I had known that, I would not have bought it because a long battery life is very important for me. 2. What are the disadvantages for employees when companies introduce flexible working hours? There are some disadvantages for employees when companies introduce flexible working hours. The most noticeable disadvantage is that it will be difficult for employees to cooperate with each other. When employees have different schedules, they cannot communicate, or provide and receive feedback from each other quickly. This can reduce work productivity. Let me tell you my story. Last year, my company introduced flexible working hours. I chose to work early in the morning, while my colleague Tim prefers to work late at night. This means I worked when he slept and vice versa. One morning, I needed Tim’s report for an urgent meeting with customers. However, he was sleeping at that time and didn’t pick up the phone when I called. As a result, I had to reschedule the meeting to another day. 3. Who do you think has a greater influence on a child’s success: celebrities or parents? Why? I think parents have a greater influence on a child’s success. First, a child’s success depends largely on his or her education. Parents not only pay for their kids’s schooling but also teach them outside of school. For example, parents assign household chores to teach children to be more independent, or take them on trips to help broaden their perspectives. Celebrities can inspire children, but they cannot provide financial support and teach like parents. In addition, parents provide children with emotional support and unconditional love, while celebrities cannot. Parents praise when their kids achieve
good things and offer help when they have problems. This makes children feel safe and confident, and they will be ready to conquer any challenges on the way to success. 4. What are the advantages of the government regulating the number of cars in a crowded city? There are some advantages of the government regulating the number of cars in a crowded city. First of all, it helps people save time. To be specific, if there are fewer cars on the road, traffic jams will be reduced. Therefore, people can get to their destination faster. Another advantage is that it helps improve the air quality. Specifically speaking, cars emit pollutants which make the air dirty. If the government reduces the number of cars, the air will be cleaner. For example, I used to live in a big city. I often got sick because the air there was seriously polluted. Since I moved to the countryside where most people use bikes instead of cars, I rarely get sick because I can breathe fresh air every day. So, I think these are some advantages of the government regulating the number of cars in a crowded city. 5. Do you prefer to go to a big city on vacation or take vacations in the countryside? I prefer to take vacations in the countryside. First of all, the countryside is quiet and has fresh air. Meanwhile, a big city is often very noisy and polluted because it has a lot of people, buildings and factories. I take vacations to reduce stress and relax so the countryside is definitely a better choice for me. In addition, I am a nature lover. When I visit the countryside, I can immerse myself in nature. For example, I can spot animals running, listen to birds singing, and watch trees dancing in the wind. I can hardly do any of these things when I visit a big city. For these reasons, I prefer to take vacations in the countryside. 6. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Social media has improved communication between people. I agree that social media has improved communication between people. First of all, we can stay in touch with friends and family who live far away. To be specific, we can send them messages, photos or videos instantly through social media. In addition, we can make new friends without leaving the house. Before social media, we have to go to clubs or events to meet new people. Now, we can easily find people who share the same interests and talk with them on social media. Let me tell you my story. I don’t like going out and because of that, I had very few friends in the past. One day, I wrote a post in a Facebook group for people who like
yoga. Many people in the group liked my post and sent me friend requests. Thanks to Facebook, now I have a lot of friends. 7. Do you prefer to work with colleagues in an office or to work alone at home? I prefer to work with colleagues in an office. First of all, I am an outgoing person. Therefore, spending time with other people makes me happy. If I work alone at home, I will feel sad and lonely. Second, it helps me save time. To be specific, when I have problems, I can get help from my colleagues quickly. When working alone at home, I have to solve everything by myself, so it might take a lot of time. For example, last week, I had to write a report at work. I didn’t know where to find data for my report. Luckily, my colleague showed me a website. Thanks to her, I could finish the report quickly. For these reasons, I prefer to work with colleagues in an office. 8. What are the advantages of watching a movie in a theater compared to watching it at home? I think there are some advantages of watching a movie in a theater compared to watching it at home. First of all, movies seem to be more exciting when watched in a theater. To be specific, a theater has a big screen and a good sound system. Therefore, you can see and hear everything more clearly. For example, last week, I watched an action movie in a theater. The big screen made me feel like I was also in the movie. My heart skipped a beat everytime the main actor pointed a gun towards the screen. I don’t think I could have those feelings when watching it on a small screen at home. In addition, there are too many distractions at home such as noisy neighbors, phone calls or household chores. However, if you watch a movie in a theater, you can focus completely on the movie without any distractions. 9. If you have a conflict with a coworker, do you prefer to resolve it by speaking with the coworker directly or by speaking with your supervisor? I prefer to resolve it by speaking with the coworker directly. First of all, it helps me find the solution more quickly. To be specific, if I speak with my supervisor, I have to explain the whole situation to him and it might take a lot of time. Second, it helps strengthen my relationship with this coworker. Speaking with the coworker directly shows that I respect and want to work through challenges with him or her. Therefore, he or she will trust and be willing to help or support me more.
Let me tell you my story. Last month, I had some trouble with a coworker. I told my supervisor about it. However, it made my coworker very angry. He then refused to give me important data for my report. As a result, I missed the deadline for this report. 10. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? A teacher’s qualifications are more important than his or her personality. I disagree that a teacher’s qualifications are more important than his or her personality. First of all, if a teacher is knowledgeable but unfriendly, students will be afraid to ask questions and share their thoughts. Meanwhile, if a teacher is friendly, students will feel more comfortable doing so. Therefore, they can understand lessons better. In addition, if a teacher is encouraging, students will be more eager to study. However, if a teacher has all the knowledge but lacks encouragement, students will lose interest in learning quickly. For example, when I was in high school, I was not good at Math. However, my Math teacher praised me every time I did an exercise correctly. As a result, I felt more confident and motivated. 11. What are the disadvantages of living in an apartment compared to living in a house? I think there are some disadvantages of living in an apartment compared to living in a house. First of all, an apartment is usually smaller than a house. Therefore, if you have a big family or a lot of furniture, you might feel uncomfortable living in an apartment. In addition, there are many neighbors living next to you. They can make a lot of noise. Therefore, you might find it difficult to relax or focus on tasks. For example, three years ago, I lived in an apartment. I had a stressful job at that time so I just wanted to go home to relax after work. However, my neighbors often played loud music or talked very loudly. Therefore, it was hard for me to relieve stress. Luckily, I was able to buy a house last year and now there is no noise at all. 12.What are the advantages of finding information about jobs online when you are looking for a job? I think there are some advantages of finding information about jobs online when I am looking for a job. First of all, it’s convenient. To be specific, I can easily compare the requirements and benefits of different jobs, and choose the one which best suits me. In addition, it is time-saving. Specifically speaking, advanced search filters help me narrow down my options based on my preferences. For example, 2 years ago, after graduating, I started my job search. I wanted a high-paying job in the biggest city in my country. However, there were not many job
