Absolutely, I certainly believe that if we take care of these wonderful places for sight seeing, our
tourism will improve, and Mother Nature will be very happy with us.
3. Do you love to go sight seeing every time you travel?

Sample answer:
Yes, I’d love to see different places and see beautiful new faces and races. For me, it’s so exciting
and fulfilling to go out for sight seeing during my trips.

1. You are planning to visit your cousin in New York City on his birthday, along
with your business trip and you would love to bring him a surprise gift. You
know that he always wanted to have a brand new “Ultra Thin” Portable Play
Station. Unfortunately, there are several problems you need to fix first since
you’ve nearly reach your credit limit. Right now, you’re trying to convince
the store owner, who happens to be a common friend of yours and your
cousin, to give you a discount and a free gift because:

Sample answer:
What, $ 350.00 for a birthday gift! Felix, it’s way above my budget! I’ve nearly used up the credit
limit of my Visa card that’s why my budget is too tight for now. I’ve used up all my money for
my visa, passport and plane ticket. All I have now is just a small amount for my pocket money. I
still am looking forward to visit several tourists’ spots like “The Bear Mountain Bridge”, “The Bear
Mountain State Park”, “Hudson River”, “The Franklin Delano Roosevelt National Historic Site in
Hyde Park”, “National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown” and “Nigeria Falls.
I hope you would give me a discount and a gift. After all, this is for your best bud Ariel, and I
won’t take “No” for an answer. Don’t worry, I’ll be sending him your regards and let him know
that you gave me a very nice discount. I’ll buy something for you when I get there. Do you have
any more good places in mind for sight seeing at NY? I’d love to visit it, of course. Thanks!

2. France is one of your most favorite countries that you’ll surely visit if you got
the opportunity. Suddenly, you’re scheduled for a business trip to Paris for
2 weeks, but you just got a little time to go shopping and wander around.
Still, you’re excited about the trip and can’t wait to be there. You started to
imagine the following and talked to your friend.

Sample answer:
Oh boy, I just got a little time for shopping and go sightseeing, so I need to plan very well which
places I’m off to go for a short visit after settling all my obligations in this business trip! Hmmm,
let’s see. Upon shopping, I want to enjoy the beauty of Paris, savor its cooling breeze, feel the
warmth of the sun and smell the fragrance of the flowers as I go sight seeing at its historic
buildings such as the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre and the Notre Dame Cathedral. I’ve waited long
enough for this opportunity to come, so this has got to be great! Can you suggest any other
places good for sight seeing at Paris and London? (Asking her business partner)
