Hey, my IELTS result is out. Guess what? I managed to get an average above 7.0 band score! This means I have cleared the 1st hurdle on my dream of studying in Oz land. Whoopppi...
Despites having not enough time in my writing test, I thought that I'm gone case for this one. Well, it turned out well instead, but, as expected, I have got the lowest band score for this test. Part 1 was about how much time men and women spent doing house chores. Part 2 on is it better for teenagers (err...students?) to focus on specific subjects in school or read all the subjects. My conclusion: Teenagers should not just focus on specific subjects, because they may be too young or immature to discern; having said that, it's also insular to assume a single school system fits all, it should be flexible enough to 'adjust' and enable students to cultivate their specific interests (subjects) and capabilities in the later part of their school's life.
The speaking test was also one tough fight, I was asked questions about, as usual, part 1: my name, whether I'm working or studying, what do you do when your friend visit you?...Part 2: which famous person I want to meet? well, I said Charles Darwin (surprised??!) and talk abit about his evolution theory (that's all in less than 2mins, hehe!). Then, the 'thinking' question: why younger people these days are not interested in politics?... I think I said it's not that young people are not interested, but, is that they are just reading and looking at it on the superficial level; anyway, without a conductive environment for political discussion, education and interests, people will not drill in-depth into politics.
