Homework

Practice 5 (writing, concluding and sentences)

Paragraph 1
You can be a good conversationalist by being a good listener. When you are conversing with someone, pay close attention to the speaker’s words while looking at his or her face. Show your interest by smiling and nodding. Furthermore, do not interrupt while someone is speaking; it its impolite to do so. If you have a good story, wait until the speaker is finished. Also, watch your body language; it can affect your communication whether you are the speaker or the listener. For instance, do not sit slumped in a chair or make nervous hand and foot movements. Be relaxed and bend your body slightly forward to show interest in the person and the conversation. There can be no doubt that you will be a good speaker if you are a good listener.


Paragraph 2
Modern communication technology is driving workers in the corporate world crazy. They feel buried under the large number of messages they receive daily. In addition to telephone calls, office workers receive dozens of e-mail and voice mail messages daily. In one company, in fact, managers receive an average of 100 messages a day. Because they do not have enough time to respond to these messages during office hours, it is common for them to do so in the evenings or on weekends at home. In short, modern communication technology causes the workers are busy, and they don’t have enough a free time.
