1. Jelaskan posisi kamu, apakah setuju atau tidak setuju (5 \u2013 10 detik)<\/strong>
Even though examinations provide measurable guidelines; I have to disagree with the idea that examination is the best way to assess students\u2019 ability.<\/em><\/p>\n

2. Alasan nomor satu dan detail (15 \u2013 25 detik)<\/strong>
For one, people learn and demonstrate their knowledge and understanding differently. Some people do best when presenting orally while others do very well in exams conditions. So it is unfair when exams make up the largest percentage of the overall grade.<\/em><\/p>\n

3. Alasan nomor dua dan detail<\/strong> (15 \u2013 25<\/strong> detik)<\/strong>
Furthermore, at times the examination itself can be flawed. Some teachers may not take into account what kind of questions best represent the students\u2019 understanding. For instance, a question asking students to write down a concept or theory word to <\/em>word doesn\u2019t necessarily  show how they understand it as a whole or  how to use it in the real life setting.<\/em><\/p>\n

4. Wrap up<\/strong> (5 \u2013 15 detik)<\/strong>
For these reasons, I believe that exams are not the best way to assess students\u2019 ability because there are other aspects that needs be taken into account.<\/em><\/p>\n

B. Preference<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Jelaskan pilihan kamu<\/strong> (5 \u2013 10 detik)<\/strong>
The city may offer great opportunities, but I prefer living in the countryside for several good reasons.<\/em><\/p>\n

2. Alasan nomor satu dan detil<\/strong> (15 \u2013 25<\/strong> detik)<\/strong>
For one reason, the countryside offers the luxury that cities could not offer. Where else could you feel the joy of breathing fresh air or waking up to see breathtaking landscapes from your bedroom window?<\/em><\/p>\n

3. Alasan nomor dua dan detail<\/strong> (15 \u2013 25 detik)<\/strong>
In addition to that, living in the countryside could reduce your level of stress because it is safer, less polluted and definitely cheaper. For instance, you don\u2019t need to worry about traffic or not getting a parking space. You also don\u2019t really need to worry about health because the air and water there is clean.<\/em><\/p>\n

4. Wrap up (5 \u2013 15 detik)<\/strong>
So basically I prefer to live in the countryside because it offers two things that really matters to me the most: peace and good health.<\/em><\/p>\n
