Group Interaction
By Emmett Poon 2013
Giving up and going aboard is always a good idea. If a student was forced
to study in the new curriculum, he or she will not be happy and then they
will be desperate. They may even develop depression and then die. Also,
this hinder their own personal development. They have no way for
creativity. They have no way for fee time. They have no way for social
activities. How can the students be happy with tonnes of classworks and
homeworks... (after 2 minutes) ... You know, this is a very disastrous future
when all candidates die because of high pressure...

(Worked Example)
Topic: Online Shopping
1 Topic Sentence +
2 Elaboration +
3 Example
Logic:
Payment is another problem in online shopping. They need to pay for the transportation, which
is very expensive. My Form 1 English teacher Mr. Emmett Poon usually bought useful
English resources from other western countries, but turned out with large amount of
transportation fee. This increases the burden of the buyers.
This skill is ONLY for students who get relatively low marks.
Put yourself in the group of disadvantaged.
To be frank, I am not a brilliant examfighters. I experienced setbacks all the time when
having tests or examinations. Just between you and me, I even attended detention every
day after school in Form 3. But this means I must work hard! Just say to yourself Never
give up!, and you can recharge energy!
