More and more people are buying items on the internet and from magazines or catalogs. Other people prefer shopping in a store. Which do you prefer, and why?
I prefer shopping in a real store because I think that the experience of shopping in a real store is one that has real human to human connection. For example, there is a camera store on the street next to my house. And over the years I've gotten to know the employees at that store very well. As a result, whenever I go in and look for camera equipment, they're able to tell me if they have any upcoming sales, or whether certain camera manufacturers are about to release a new model of camera. For me, as a photographer, this is very exciting because it allows me to better come into contact with the art form of photography that I love. I can't really do this on an online store where I'm just clicking some buttons and buying products.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? It is important to learn about other cultures. Use specific details and examples to explain your opinion.
I agree. I think that people should learn more about different cultures, because it helps us become more accepting of diversity. I love to travel, and whether its watching documentaries or even just reading about the news places I’m gonna go, I found that learning more about other cultures helps me be more prepared for my travels. A couple years ago, I visited Spain, and I didn’t know that lunch was the biggest meal of the day. I’m really glad that I was able to read up a little bit on Spanish culture, because I knew that I should eat a big meal at lunch so that I’d be more prepared for tapas at dinner. Between all of the religions and races and languages and etiquette around the world, it’s sometimes hard to be accepting, but I think that learning about new other cultures makes us more prepared to be accepting rather than judgemental.

State whether you agree or disagree with the following statement. Then explain your reasons using specific details in your explanation.
Students should not be allowed to bring cell phones or mobile phones into the classroom？
I strongly agree that students should not be allowed to bring their cell phones into the classroom. I've been in some classes where phones are allowed. And in those classes, my classmates tend to spend a lot of the class time on their phones. They don't really pay attention to the teacher, and instead, they're busy playing games or sending photos to each other on their phones, which I personally find very distracting. On the other hand, in my classes where phones are not allowed, I found that my classmates pay attention to the teacher and are much more responsive to in-class discussion than in my classes where phones are allowed. Overall, I've noticed that having phones in class negatively impacts my learning, and that's why I agree that phones should be banned in the classroom.

Some people who unexpectedly receive a large amount of money spend it on practical things, while others spend it for pleasure only. Which do you think is better and why?

When people unexpectedly receive a large amount of money, I definitely think they should spend it on practical things. I know it’s boring, but it allows us to meet our basic needs before we spend money on luxury items or pleasure. When I graduated from high school, my grandmother unexepectedly gifted me $1,000. It was crazy! I had never received that much money before, and I was super excited to spend it on new clothes and a new purse. My mom told me I should spend it on necessities because a new laptop for university and course books are more important than a pretty new purse. I reluctantly took her advice, but I’m glad that I did. I was well prepared for university, and even though I didn’t have a new purse, I had the things that I needed, like a laptop, which really mattered for my success in school.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? It is important to remember and learn from the past.Use details and examples to explain your opinion.

I strongly agree that it is important to remember and learn from the past. My hometown of San Diego is very prone to forest fires. Last summer, there was a large forest fire, but it was successfully contained by the firefighters because they had learned from a past fire that happened 10 years ago. During that fire 10 years ago, firefighters only used water from fire trucks to try and put out the fire—but this wasn't effective. So the fire department learned from that, and bought two firefighting helicopters to prepare for the next time a wildfire would happen. And sure enough, when another fire happened this summer, the department had their helicopters ready to help put out the fire, and they were successful. This is just one example of why we should learn from the past. It can save lives.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? One of the best ways to learn is by making mistakes. Use specific examples and details to support your opinion.

I agree. I think that mistakes are one of the best opportunities for learning. For example, mistakes lead you to learn new things and how to use that new knowledge in the future. I made the mistake of leaving my bedroom door unlocked during my first year in the dormitories, and someone ended up stealing my wallet. I learned very quickly that it is important to lock my door, but I also learned how to fill out a police report. I will never leave my bedroom door unlocked again, and I know that if I ever have to face the same problem or situation of stolen property again, I will be better prepared. So, you can consider mistakes as lessons for life. While some mistakes might be painful lessons to learn, nobody is perfect, and we all have to learn the painful lessons at some point.
