I was going late to get into the


class. There were many of traffic
lights that I had to go through.
Furthermore, I saw the
opportunity to enter a red light
because it was extremely quiet. It
became a habit when I go late. The
people in front of me also do it
every time they are late. I know it
was wrong, but I have a choice.
Either I am not going to the class
or call the police. I take the risk
and call the police, which I have to
do so fast after going through the
red light.
Cohesion
Use Linking Words:
Include transitional words and phrases like "however," "therefore,"
"moreover," and "in addition" to connect ideas and create smooth transitions.

Reference Words:
Use pronouns (he, she, it, they) to refer back to previously mentioned nouns.
This helps avoid repetition and maintains a natural flow.

Repetition and Synonyms:


Skillfully repeat key words or use synonyms to reinforce concepts without
sounding redundant.

Parallel Structure:
Maintain consistency in sentence structure, especially in lists.
Parallel structures contribute to a more organized and cohesive speech.

Coordinating and Subordinating Conjunctions:


Employ conjunctions like "and," "but," "although," and "while" to connect
ideas and show relationships between clauses.
Logical Organization:
Structure your speech in a logical order. Introduce ideas sequentially, using a clear and easily understandable
organization.

Main Idea and Supporting Details:


Clearly state the main idea and support it with relevant details. This helps the listener follow your train of
thought.

Topic Sentences:
Begin each new idea or section with a clear topic sentence. This guides the listener and helps them anticipate
the content.

Storytelling Techniques:
If applicable, use storytelling techniques such as chronological order, cause and effect, or problem-solution to
make your speech more coherent.

Summarization:
Periodically summarize key points to reinforce understanding and maintain coherence.

Signposting:
Use signposting phrases to signal changes in topic or direction, such as "Now, let's move on to," or "In
conclusion."

Maintain Focus:
Stay focused on the main topic and avoid unnecessary tangents that may confuse the listener.

Pauses and Pacing:


Use appropriate pauses and pacing to allow listeners to process information and keep up with your speech.
Ethical Dilemmas:
Can you discuss a situation where you faced an ethical dilemma? How did you navigate
through it, and what factors influenced your decision-making process?

Globalization and Culture:


With the increasing globalization of cultures, how do you think it impacts the
preservation of unique cultural identities? In what ways can societies balance the
benefits of globalization with the need to protect their cultural heritage?

Artificial Intelligence and Employment:


As artificial intelligence continues to advance, there are concerns about its impact on
employment. How do you think AI will affect job opportunities in the future, and what
steps can individuals and governments take to adapt to these changes?
Can you discuss a situation where you faced an ethical dilemma? How did you navigate through it, and
what factors influenced your decision-making process?
I have a story about ethical dilemas. It is about when I was driving on the road. Usually, if there is a red light, we
have to stop. But it was too late, so I had to pass that red light, which is forbidden to pass that red light. So I just
passed it, because I am too scared to be late at class, rather than caught to the police. I was caught by the police,
because at that time, I gotta say went fast, I drove so fast. Maybe at that time, it was hard for the police to caught
me. That's my ethical dilemas that I experienced at the red light, which I guess, I would say, mostly people
experience it. Especially in my place, because there is always traffic at many roads. Caused by one of them is
because most of people pass that red light.
Globalization and Culture:
With the increasing globalization of cultures, how do you think it impacts the
preservation of unique cultural identities? In what ways can societies balance
the benefits of globalization with the need to protect their cultural heritage?

For my perspective, increasing globalization of cultures is affected by younger people. The younger people
in my place and at my country usually just learning how to be a western people, which America or UK,
rather than learning their own culture. I don't see they not willingly to understand their own culture, but I
would say they are not interested to learn it more. And sadly, the people who from another country are
more interested to learn our ethnic culture rather than ourselves. But there is a way to increasing the
interest of people to learn their culture. For instance, in my country, there is a tribe named Badui tribe.
They divided to two tribes, which outer tribes and inner tribes. The outer tribes still live as normal people.
They still have electricity and still have a signal on their area. But the inner tribe, they don't have the
electricity, the signal. Also, they forbid to wash their body with shampoo or something not naturally
made. And how to increase the interest of younger people especially is the outer Badui divided people
to come to their place, to learn how their lives, how perspective of their lives. So, people who live from a
different area can learn and know better to their tribes. They still open the door for people to learn their
tribes.
Artificial Intelligence and Employment:
As artificial intelligence continues to advance, there are concerns about its impact on employment.
How do you think AI will affect job opportunities in the future, and what steps can individuals and
governments take to adapt to these changes?

Human beings have been living with technologies. Recently, the newest technology has founded, named
Artificial Intelligence. Artificial Intelligence can help human beings to make an ease, mostly for working on a
daily basis. We can provide convenience for work, for instance, correcting the grammar when we write,
producing proper photos without taking photos on studios and mostly, AI, or stand for Artificial Intelligence,
is in our device because mostly the app on our device using the AI. The employment also can be affected by
it. A person, when they having a problem, they usually need help or need a hand from another person, right?
But recently, because the access of Artificial Intelligence, the existence of Artificial Intelligence, we can use it
to solve our problems right now and for instance and we don't need a hand from another person. The
government has to concern about it. Artificial Intelligence cannot be our first main thing in our daily lives. We
do not, we do not too much depend on it. I would say, I suggest for the government, they make the rules for a
citizen to not using the device or Artificial Intelligence as often as possible. In order to us to not dependent to
it. I guess that's a right, one of the right rules that must be exist for our adaptation with Artificial Intelligence.
