Commenting on/Reacting to an article
Ex.3 p.71
Aim: to practise commenting on/reacting to an article
Ask various Ss to express their opinions on job fairs using the ideas in the model letter and their own ideas as well as the useful language.
|
Suggested Answer Key
Personally, I don’t think that job fairs have become obsolete. Considering the fact that they provide an excellent opportunity for jobseekers to make connections and for employers to evaluate potential candidates, it’s obvious that they have value. I say this because we all know the value of a first impression and human interaction.
