I have always wanted to try bungee jumping as an extreme activity. It interests me because it allows people to jump off tall structures while being secured by an elastic cord. I find taking risks exciting as it pushes me outside my comfort zone. However, bungee jumping requires proper safety precautions.

Dear Mr. Gonzalez:
During the semester, it was very comfortable to use writing as a practice and as a new experience rather than just trying to pass a class. Practicing as an assignment was a tremendous impact in my writing since my first language is Spanish. This made the process of learning more interesting, but I believe yoga gives the magic touch to this class. You as a professor made the class became a safe place for students. I am a person who is stressed most of the time about everything in my life. It is amazing how the energy changed every time I was in class practicing yoga with my classmates.
Moreover, the class felt like my comfort zone because I was able to relaxed. Even though I have been having rough days at my job or in my personal life, the class helped me improve my skills. I understood how important it is to notice and wonder in life. Learning English was one of my dreams, and I can finally say that I am thankful Prof. Gonzalez was part of it. I wanted to say thank you for being patience with my classmates and I. I really appreciate your help during the semester. I released my tension through my writing because it made me feel better every time. Since I started this class, I started a journal. Therefore, starting a journal was one of the most interesting things I have done this semester because I could communicate my th.

- It focuses on how appropriate the writing is given the communicative task, including using the correct genre/text type and register.
- It also considers the tone and language selected in terms of being appropriate for the task and holding the target reader's attention.
- The descriptors consider whether ideas are communicated simply, straightforwardly or more complexly.
- Following the conventions of the communicative task, such as genre, format and function, is the primary focus of this subscale.
So in summary, Communicative Achievement evaluates how well the candidate understood and addressed the communicative purpose and conventions required by the specific task.

2. Eating Out
[describe your experience eating out]
-how often you eat out
-who you usually eat out with
-if you enjoy eating out [why/why
not?
-why some people prefer to eat out
I probably go to a restaurant to eat once in a
month.
If I got a chance to eat out, I always go out to
eat with my sister as we share the same taste
buds when it comes to the choices of food.
Personally, I usually avoid eating outside and
prefer to eat homemade food. I believe that
homemade food items have better taste and
healthier. Furthermore, restaurant foods are
quite expensive in my country.
In my opinion, some people prefer to eat out
to save time. Cooking takes a lot of time. You
also have to clean the dishes as well as the
kitchen after you’re done. However, you can
avoid all the hassle in a restaurant. So, some
people enjoy eating out.
3. RESTAURANT
Describe a restaurant or a cafe you often go to.
You should say:
• Where it is
• What it looks like
• What kind of services are provided
• What kind of food do you like there/ What kind of food is
famous? And say why you like it.
Out of all the restaurants and cafés near my residence,
I frequent Noza Café.
It is not a big place. However, the décor is impressive.
When one enters, they feel quite comfortable and
homely as their furniture includes typical drawing-room
sofas and chairs. So, everyone feels relaxed.
There is a special service where the cafe also allows
the pets, a policy that makes everyone feel home.
Three cats are the permanent residents of the place.
There is both an indoor as well as an outdoor eating
area.
Noza Café serves a decent list of food items, all of
which are tasty. My favourite food here is the onion
rings with fries and mayonnaise. It is simply delicious. I
love this place because it offers variety of food with a
cheap price.
4. Recently I went to Kuala Lumpur with my
family members.
It was the first family trip we had after a long
time. We got to KL by by using public
transport such as train and bus. We even
went on foot to explore KL.
As a tourist we explored as much area as
possible of this region, we visited famous
sites such as The Petronas Twin Tower, KL
Tower and many other places.
Personally, the whole area was very
attractive and interesting in my taste. I felt
like I was witnessing something I have never
seen existed. The street architecture of
building, shop houses gave me a totally
different experience. I would definitely want
to visit KL again maybe this time with my
friends after we finish our SPM exam.
5. Last month it was my mother’s birthday and so
one of the gifts I gave her was something a little
different from the kind of thing I would normally
give her on such occasions.
My mom is a very hardworking person and
sometimes I think she is being overworked.
So,I arranged with my sister to organize a
weekend away at a luxury spa hotel for our
mother and her best friend as a gift. The package
we purchased included things like a deep-tissue
massage, seaweed wrap, and other spa
treatments and the spa location had a swimming
pool and other facilities for her and her friend to
enjoy over the weekend.
All in all, we thought it would be nice for her to
have some time off from all the routine things she
does and to get away for a while – a sort of
escape.
6. A song you like A song that I like is ‘ Assalamualaikum’
by a famous Malaysian singer, Faizal
Tahir. It is a pop-rock song with a very
catchy melody. The first time I heard
that song was probably 6 years ago.
This song has meaningful and soulful
lyrics, talking about unity, peace and
equality. It says that we should treat
each other equally and put an end to
discrimination based on color and
religion.
I like this song obviously because it is
from Faizal Tahir who happens to be my
favourite singer of all time. Apart from
that ,I really love the message behind
the song. I’ll wrap up by saying that it is
a beautiful song carrying a message to
make this world worth living.
7. Book Recently I have read The Godfather. It was a
highly interesting book and I loved reading it.
The Godfather is a popular crime novel. It was
written by Mario Puzo, an Italian-American
writer.
The book plot is about a fictional Mafia family
and its inner events.
I believe that those who love crime and
thrillers genre would find this novel interesting
and they would enjoy it.
Though it was a crime novel, I do not think that
the characters of the novel were criminals.
Rather, they were following their own rules for
survival which created a new insight on me.
So, for all such reasons, I enjoyed the book
very much.
8. Describe a movie that
had a strong impact on
you
-what movie it was
-when you watched
the movie
-how it influenced you
-if you liked it and why
Usually watching movies is not in my nature but if
there are something special, I do not miss.
Accordingly, I enjoyed a movie named – Forrest
Gump. I watched this movie last week with my
friends via Netflix.
This movie has influenced me to be grateful for
everything I have in life as I believe I did not suffer
as much as the character in this movie. I was
touched by the life events of Forest Gump. He
actually suffered a lot in his life. Life was filled with
thrones for him. But finally, he overcame all the
obstacles for his determination and kindness.
Personally, I enjoyed the movie to the last minute
because I love how Tom Hanks acted out in this
movie . Other than that, the plot had some emotional
impacts on me which helped me to fall in love with
the movie. In fact, this is one of the best movies I
have ever seen and enjoyed.
9. Best Birthday Present
-what the present was
-why it was special
-who gave you the present
- why is it important to give
birthday present
For me, the best birthday present I have
ever received was a MacBook Pro. The
present was given for my 17th birthday last
year. I still remember I was over the moon
when I received the present.
My father was the one who gave the
present to me .Personally, this present was
so special and meaningful to me as it was
the last present from him before he passed
away earlier this year.
I believe that is important to give birthday
present because giving a gift to someone
we care about allows us to communicate
our feelings and appreciation for them.
10. A best friend
-what your best friend looks
like
-how you met
-what you have in common
-what activities you do
together
Why is important to have a
best friend
I want to talk about Fatimah who has been my best friend
since school days. She is currently studying in SMKA Kuala
Selangor. It was in 2020 when I met with her in class. It just
happened that on her first day in the school, she couldn’t get
an empty seat while I was sitting alone since my friend was
absent on that day. I asked her to sit along with me and
introduced myself. From then onwards, we became friends
and our friendship is continued till today.
We shared a lot of things in common, for instance we love
playing chess and we love watching K-Drama.
Whenever we get some free time, we meet each other on a
coffee shop and sit over there for hours, gossiping about our
day-to-day life. In the weekend, we often study together in the
library.
Personally, I believe it is important to have a best friend since
he or she can help me a lot in my difficult times. For
example,whenever I needed support, Fatimah was always
there for boosting me up. She is extremely honest towards
our friendship and a trustworthy person as well. This is the
reason why we need to have at least one best friend.
11. Describe your family.
• You should say:
how many family members your
family has
• what they do
• how close you are
and explain why your family is
important to you
To begin with, my family has got 4 members including
me. My father, mother, elder brother are the roots of
my existence and I love them very much.
To start with my mother, she is the sweetest person
and the kindest hearted woman I have ever seen.
She used to work as a teacher in a college but left it
when my elder brother came to this world. She still
runs a small boutique business besides taking great
care of her family.
As for my father, he works as a Vice President and he
is a super dad, our inspiration and guide. My elder
brother and I are still studying in the same school.
As a family we are very close. Every weekend we will
play badminton and we will also bake together and
trying out new recipe.
The famous saying ‘Blood's thicker than water’ is
quite true as I feel most comfortable and blessed
being with my family members. My family is
important as everyone has great contributions to help
me become the person I am.
12. A social Networking Site
Talk about a social networking site
you prefer.
You should say:
What the social networking site is
What you use the networking site
for
If it suitable for all ages (why/why
not)
Why social networking sites should
be used carefully
Personally, I prefer to use Instagram . I started using
this app five years ago when I started experimenting
with photography and I find that it is an application
that allows me to express myself creatively, by using
various filters for my photography or videos to create
an effect I desire.
I now use the application at least 3 times a week to
post stories or to dm my friends and followers.
I still enjoy using Instagram very much and would
absolutely recommend it to others . However, I believe
that this platform is not suitable for all ages as some
of the contents shared could be inappropriate in terms
of languages and the content.
We should use social networking sites carefully
because I have had people
make derogatory comments to me which can be
rather upsetting but fortunately you can block them
easily. I have been fortunate so far, but some people I
know have been victims of catfishing, which can be
traumatic.
13. You have been attending online classes
lately.
you should talk about:
Why online study is important
What are the problems that you face
How to make it more effective
Do you like to study online? Why or
why not?
In my opinion, online study is important to
ensure the continuation of knowledge
during this pandemic.
Personally, the problems that I faced
would be the distraction at homes such as
from television show or from my own
siblings. Other than that, I would feel very
lazy to attend the class as it is boring.
To make it online study more effective, we
need to stay away from the distraction at
homes to help us to focus in class.
All in all , I find that online study is not for
me because I tend to lose focus and get
easily distracted.
14. Talk about a part-time job you
would like to try.
You should say :
What the part-time job is
What you do
Why you choose it
If working experience is important
(why/why not)
If I were given a chance to do a part-time job, I
would love to become a barista.
A barista is the one who prepares and
serves espresso-based coffee drinks. As a
barista I need to know how to operate and
maintain espresso machines, froth milk and
much more.
Truthfully , I choose to work part-time as a
barista because I was influenced by a K- drama
that I really love called ‘Coffee prince’. I found
out from the drama that being a barista is
something cool as you can express your
creativity in serving the coffee.
As for me, passion is more important than
experience when it comes to work because
when you have the passion you will work hard
to improve yourself and execute your work.
15. A challenge as a teen
Talk about the biggest challenge
you experience as a teen,
You should say:
What is the challenge is
How it affects you
What have you done to face the
challenge
If challenges are important in our
lives (why/why not)
As you know teenagers face a lot of challenges in
life. As for me , the biggest challenge I experience
in my teenage years is stress. Currently I am really
stressed to do well in my SPM examination.
To be honest ,my stress had led me to many
sleepless night as I am worried whether or not I am
able to do well in my SPM.
To overcome the challenge, I went to see my
counselor. She has helped me by giving me
valuable tips to face the exam. After seeing her. I
made some changes in my routine and I could see
the improvement.
Personally, I believe that challenges are important
in our lives. As you go through challenges, you
become stronger and stronger. I would see
challenges are an excellent opportunity for our
personal growth.
16. Talk about an online shopping
platform.
You should say :
What is your favourite online
shopping site. Why?
How often you browse the site
What are the things you normally
buy online
Do you enjoy shopping online?
(Why/Why not)
If I buy things online, I prefer to buy it
from an online shopping site called ‘
Zalora’.
I must say that I am obsessed with this
shopping site as I would browse it
numerous times daily.
I usually buy scarf online as it offers many
attractive designs with better prices.
Personally , I found a good experience with
online shopping. By shopping online , I
have the ability to compare prices from
hundreds of different vendors before I
purchase something. For example , in
Zalora for example if I type the word ‘
scarf’ there will be numerous vendors
17. Recent online shopping
experience.
Talk about your recent online
shopping experience.
What you bought online recently?
Why you bought it?
If you were happy with what you
bought?
Recently I was in need of buying a watch for my
brother’s birthday. I wanted to buy a latest watch
from Casio Retro Vintage collection and this
watch was not available with many of the online
shopping sites but I found that watch on
Jabong.com.
Even though I am a confident buyer, I was quite
sceptical about this site. Regardless , I still bought
it as it was hard to find it from any other website.
In addition , the price offer was quite reasonable.
To be honest, I wasn’t happy with what I bought.
The watch I ordered wasn’t packed properly. When
I opened the package, I found that watch was
completely broken. Overall, it was a disappointing
experience. From that day onwards I have decided
not to buy anything from that website anymore.
18. An extreme activity that you would
like to try
You should say :
What the extreme activity is
What makes you interested to try
Do you think taking risks is
exciting? (why/why not)
The extreme activity that I would like to try
is bungee jumping. Bungee jumping is a
sport in which people jump off a tall place
like bridge with an elastic rope tied to their
legs.
I am keen to try this when I watched a
challenge from the show Amazing Race
where the contestant need to do bungee
jumping from the cliff. I still remember ,
one of the contestants was panicking
hysterically when she needed to complete
the bungee jumping task.
Well, I think it depends on how the big the
risk that you are taking is. Sometimes the
risk is so big that you are literally putting
your life in danger.
