EDUCATION

Now I am going to tell you about quality of education. It has become a very serious problem for many people recently.
* In my opinion many people are concerned about the quality of education because their future career depends on it. So it is very important for them. If you want to have a professional, education, it must be of high quality.
* I think pupils should study hard at school if they want to go to university. Many pupils don’t understand that. At university there is no time to catch up with what you missed at school. So it is better to think about it in advance.
* Honestly speaking education is so important nowadays because it determines our future. I mean you job, career, pay, prosperity, and well-being depend on how intelligent you are.
* My attitude to higher education is very positive. I myself want to go to university. I know that higher education helps to gain more knowledge for future practice and experience. So I guess it’s for a good cause.

EDUCATION-2
You are going to give a talk about education. You will have to start in 1,5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10—12 sentences).
Remember to say:
● why education is important;
● how long compulsory education in Russia is;
● what your favourite subject is;
● what your attitude to education is.
You have to talk continuously.
Now I’m going to give a talk about education. This question has become very essential recently and worth discussing it.
* To my mind, education is so important nowadays because it influences our future and welfare. It is thought to develop intelligence. It so happens that higher education helps you find a better job and higher pay. It’s all about money, of course. In fact, in real life it may be different. But to me, it’s all prejudices.
* It is very important to say that compulsory education is 11 years. The law sets down it. There are 3 stages – primary, secondary, and high school. If you wish, you can go to college instead of high school. Parents are responsible for their children during this period. They must provide conditions for their compulsory education within 11 years.
* Honestly speaking, my favourite subject at school is English. I am good at it and my parents say I am cut out for it. I plan to go on learning English further. Maybe, I shall got to university and become a translator. That kind of thing.
* It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that education is the most important thing in human life. It makes us develop imagination and thinking. Also, it helps move forward on the base of the previous knowledge and experience of our predecessors. I am grateful to my country that I can study for free. This is the greatest achievement.
That’s all I wanted to tell you about education.

EDUCATION – SCHOOL EXAMS
You are going to give a talk about school exams. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10—12 sentences).
Remember to say:
● what exams you have to take this year;
● whether exams are useful for your learning or not, and why;
● how you get ready for your most difficult exams;
● what your attitude to school exams is.
You have to talk continuously.
Now I’m going to talk about school exams.
* To begin with, I’m in ninth grade, so according to the law, I take two mandatory exams and two optional exams. Two mandatory exams are Russian language and Mathematics. Additionally, I opted for English and Physics. I’m good at these subjects. That kind of thing.
* To tell the truth, I don’t like taking exams. I feel nervous. It doesn’t help me sail through. I have to work hard. Moreover, I don’t think that tests are good to check up my knowledge. To me, they are not useful at all. I cannot see any connection between my learning, tests, and practical work. I mean real adult life. Top score doesn’t guarantee that I will use this in my future job. And, of course, it won’t help me choose the good job either. Nothing of the kind.
* I have to admit there is nothing new in my preparation for the most difficult exams or tests. I do revision, as usual. I read things again and make notes in order to remember facts, dates, and formulae. A better way to get ready, though, is a cram session, of course. That’s the most efficient thing for me. We get together, ask tricky questions, and thus we close gaps in each other’s knowledge. That’s the way it goes.
* Of course, I don’t like school exams. My attitude is more negative than positive. I have put up with them, though. If you can’t break a wall, you can go around it, as the saying goes. So I’ve adapted, and now I am waiting for graduation to find a job and develop myself.
That’s all I wanted to tell you about school exams.
