Task 1
The question:
Do you think it is better to study online or in a classroom?
My Answer:
I would say that study in the classroom is much better than online class. my reasons as simple as that if we are in the classroom we can discuss much more better than we do it on online classes. we can see our friends and our lecturer faces expression and then also we can communicate in fast motion so the discussion will be very good in the result and the learning process could be better than online

Task 2
Reading Passage:
Part-time jobs for college students
Many college students have part-time jobs while they are in school. Some students believe that working while studying can help them gain valuable experience and develop important skills. Others believe that working can be a distraction and can have a negative impact on their academic performance.
Research has shown that students who work 10 to 15 hours per week have better academic performance than those who do not work at all. This is because working part-time can help students learn time management skills, develop a strong work ethic, and improve their ability to balance multiple responsibilities. Additionally, having a job while in college can provide students with financial independence and help them pay for their education and other expenses.
However, it is important for students to be careful not to work too much. Students who work more than 20 hours per week are more likely to have lower grades and drop out of school. This is because working too much can take away from the time and energy needed to study and complete coursework.
Overall, having a part-time job while in college can be beneficial for students, but it is important to find a balance between work and school.
Listening Passage:
Professor: Good morning class. Today, we're going to talk about the benefits and drawbacks of working while you're in college. Let's start by discussing the reading passage. The author argues that having a part-time job while in college can be beneficial for students.
Student 1: I agree with the author. I work part-time at a local restaurant and it has helped me develop important skills like time management and multitasking.
Professor: That's great to hear. Now let's listen to a conversation between two students who have different opinions about working while in college.
Student 2: Hey, have you thought about getting a part-time job?
Student 3: I don't think I have the time. I want to focus on my studies.
Student 2: But having a job can help you develop important skills and give you financial independence.
Student 3: I see your point, but I don't want to risk my academic performance.
Professor: So, based on the reading and listening, do you agree or disagree that college students should have part-time jobs?
The question:
Summarize the main points made in the reading passage and the listening conversation, and explain whether you agree or disagree with the idea that college students should have part-time jobs.
My Answer:
Are you reading message you can infer that the college student who got a job part-time has beneficial especially when they do 10 to 15 hours a day that's a good portion because with that person the students can learn good management time and then can be strong work I think also can learn multitasking. but the other hand if you work for more than 20 hours it can leave of time energy of you to do academic activity. so the lecturer talk about that and then the students there are two type of students the one is want to focus on the academic and then second one it's okay to get the part-time job. and for me I do much prefer if students can do part-time job the first reason of course the financial issues because college is not cheap if you can manage your financial independently it is good for you and then the other reason is because if you are practicing work in the real world it's very good for you after you graduate
