Role play a city council meeting in order to discuss important energy issues (express approval or disapproval).
Sample 2:
A: As you know, the mayor of the city has signed an agreement with a new oil company to build a pipeline close to the city. I strongly disapprove of this initiative. There are many natural areas where the pipeline would be built, and any spills would affect the environment.
B: Maybe it’s a good idea to check with environmental agencies.
Sample 1:
A: As you know, the mayor of the city has signed an agreement with a new oil company to build
a pipeline close to the city. I strongly disapprove of this initiative. There are many natural areas where the pipeline would be built, and any spills would affect the environment.
B: Good point. It’s probably a good idea to check with environmental agencies and maybe ask
for a revision of the agreement.
In this sample, student B fails to use the target language (conceding a point), so he/she only gets 1 point. If the student failed to give an answer related to the topic, or made mistakes that would impede comprehension, he would get 0 (no points).
In this sample, both students (A and B) use the right expressions to express agreement, and also support their answers at the expected level.
