      midterm questions
      Dear All,
       
      Prepare for all 3 Qs; each Q for the length of 2 mins. While practicing, pay attention to:
       
      1. your argument & structure: if the points are stated in a sensible way, and supported by convincing details;
      2. English fluency: remember the key words/points, and try to express the ideas in different ways everytime you practice;
      and 3. pronunciation & grammar: consult   https://dictionary.cambridge.org/   to avoid pronunciation/grammar mistakes.
       
      Here are the Qs.
       
      Q1 Do you think nationals should be concerned about politics? Explain.
      Q2 How do you prepare yourself for the job market in the near future?
      Q3 How are the limited resources on Earth going to be distributed in a better way as the world population is getting bigger each day?
       
      Practice answering the Qs in front of a mirror, your family or friends until you can get rid of the notes.
