2.  Is it possible to sound sarcastic even if you don’t mean it?


                  Sample answer:
                  Yes, underlying tone makes the difference. Some people don’t mean to be sarcastic,
                  but because of improper tone, they sound like one. Intonation is very vital. It is a factor
                  of delivering messages properly.


               3.  In contextual idea, how should we respond to opinions or questions?

                  Sample answer:
                  We need to be keen on the verb or modal verbs used. The tense of the verb or the form
                  of the word matters. Sometimes, it doesn’t sound good if words don’t agree with each
                  other. So, there’s a total need for the right choice of words to use in a sentence.










               1.  If you are a celebrity and you are one of the guests in an afternoon talk show,
                  would you answer series of questions and react towards the conversation
                  on international marriages. Would you mind on the religion or nationality of
                  your partner?


                  Sample answer:
                  I wouldn’t mind. For me, love is more important. If you love the person, everything will
                  follow. There maybe some frictions that might come in later, but moving forward, it
                  can be worked out. I don’t think it’s a big deal. If love is the center of the relationship,
                  then God will take care of it.

               2.  If you were a student and you were asked to give an opinion on a certain
                  topic, how would you successfully deliver your opinion?

                  Sample answer:
                  Good morning, I am a student from an exclusive school. I was brought up with strong
                  faith.  With all due respect, I disagree with the opinion of our celebrity guest. In my
                  belief, partners or couples need to have the same faith. This is also true for culture.
                  Otherwise, it will be hard for both of them to live together, eventually. They may try it,
                  but obstacles are as strong as the hurricanes. There is no guarantee that it will hold out
                  the problems that might come along the way. So it’s always best to choose somebody
                  with the same religion and culture as you, so you wouldn’t encounter any doubts or
                  problems in the near future which can lead in the break up of your relationship. Your
                  children may have problems with it if that time comes, so you had better think twice
                  before entering on such wedding bonds.
