What do you remember about learning language at school?

Learning a language is challenging in school because the way languages are taught is subjective. One has to cram and take exams. Students don’t often find opportunities to use them practically. The syllabus must be gone through . this is the main purpose of teaching and learning a language in schools.

Frankly speaking, some languages are very challenging. I have seen people struggle while honing linguistic skills. Proficiency in any language depends upon practice .There are some languages people cannot practice because they need someone who speaks that language. Teachers also play crucial role developing linguistic skills.

Model Answer:-

Shopping from website is very common now a day. A majority of people in my area rely on internet to sell and buy things online. Whenever I am to buy anything I take the help of trusted and popular websites if the thing is not available at shops or showrooms in my hometown.  There are some popular websites run by e-commerce store such as Amazon, FlipCart, ShopClues , Deal 24 and so on.

Recently I bought a pair of shoes form Amazon. This is one of the most trusted and popular websites all around the world. Earlier I visited some shops and showrooms in my area to buy pair of sports shoes. But I was not satisfied. I logged in FlipCart and browsed the lists of shoes they offer and within 10 minutes I successfully made the payment and ordered the shoes I wanted.

Within 3 days I received my order. I am quite satisfied because the quality of shoes is very good and I saved 600 rupees also. FlipCart also secures its customers with money back guarantee if they are not satisfied.

I appreciate the services of the company. It offers excellent customer support, money back guarantee and on time deliver. Even it has access to remote area also. One thing that I wanted is Cash on Delivery. The offer is not available for my area. I wanted to shop more but if the company offers this facility I will do it in the future. Because there are many products which are not readily available in my area. And it is not possible to go out and buy. Overall I am happy with the pair of shoes I bought.

 


 Discussion Topics 

Shopping online-

What kinds of things do people in your country often buy online shops?

Online shopping has become very popular in my country especially among young people. They keep pace with the trends and fashion with the help of mobile and internet. People in my country buy shoes, clothes , goggles and gadgets and so on. The trend shows that people are fond of using latest gadgets they often buy from online ecommerce stores and websites. Senior citizen also do some online shopping like buying seasonal clothes and domestic item that can help them move around.  During the times of festivals people are crazy after gifts items for their nears and dears.

 it is like a piece of cake for people to select items and order online. I have seen people receive parcels and couriers of the items they ordered. The trend seems to continue in the future. I must say that the pandemic has accelerated it.

Why do you think online shopping has become so popular?

Gone are the days, when people would make special time to visit the markets to buy what they needed. Now people rely on online shopping. In my area online shopping has become very common. Online shopping has some advantages that attract people. For example you can shop from the comfort of your home. Items are comparatively economical than offline shopping. Most of the e-commerce stores and websites offer money back and replacement guarantee.  Such benefits make people shop online more. There are varieties of products that satisfy people to go online and make shopping.

Why do many people today keep buying things which they don’t need?

Actually this is because they are persuaded to buy that they don’t even use. We often see advertisement designed to hook up people and they are carried way. In the era of fashion , shopping has also become a fashion or Symbol of status, people feel they may be out of trend if they don’t shop. This is because advertisements created in a way that takes in people to buy things they don’t require at present. I have some friends who often buy things just to show off though items are costly. Just to follow the trend they buy such things.

Do you believe the benefits of consumer society outweigh the disadvantages?

Consumer society shoulders ethical and social responsibilities which is very crucial.  The social boosts economic growth and looks which product is best.  It also motivates manufacturers to innovate and avail best products to people. It also creates jobs and brings foreign investment also. I think it is good if we avoid some of its negative points that may lead capitalism.

How possible is it to avoid the culture of consumerism?

Well it is difficult to avoid it. We are carried away by offers made by sellers. When we see something attractive we are tempted to buy it though we don’t need. It is better to limit your exposure to TV and social media commercials. People must hold on before they buy anything. One thing that I want to add , have a close look how you spend your time. If you are spending it viewing social media posts and browsing products feature you are going to fall for it. Try resist the expensive gifts and don’t go out with the mood of shopping often.
