The picture shows two people at a reception counter. A woman seated behind the counter is handing a sheet of paper to a man standing in front of her. The man is wearing a backpack and reaching for the paper. There is a large plant behind the counter. The setting looks like an office reception area.

4. describe-picture

A worker is pushing a trolley through a warehouse aisle. He is wearing a bright safety vest and has both hands on the trolley’s handle. Several sealed cardboard boxes are stacked on the trolley. Tall shelves containing more boxes run along both sides of the aisle. The main action is the movement of the loaded trolley.

5. respond

I usually learn a new skill every few months. I often start with an online lesson at home, then practise the skill at work or in a short class.

6. respond

I would like to learn basic spreadsheet skills. They would help me organise information and check simple budgets more accurately in my daily work.

7. respond

I prefer several weekly classes because I can practise between sessions. If I have a question after trying a skill at work, I can ask the teacher in the next class. Weekly lessons also fit my schedule more easily. An intensive course is useful when time is limited, but I usually remember more when learning is spread out.

The next teaching session is Presenting Ideas Clearly, led by Maya Chen from eleven fifteen to eleven fifty-five. Both sessions take place in Hall Two. There is a short second break between them.

11. opinion

I think a shared quiet room is useful, especially in an open office. Some tasks, such as checking a detailed report, need steady concentration. A person working on that task could use the room for an hour without asking the whole office to remain silent. The room could also help employees finish an urgent piece of writing before returning to normal team work. However, it should be a shared resource rather than a private office for one person. A simple booking system and a reasonable time limit would make access fair. With those arrangements, a quiet room could support focused work while leaving the main office available for discussion.
