Hello, my name is Julius. I'm helping
0:02
students achieve their target band
0:04
scores in IEL speaking and writing.
0:06
Today, I'd like to answer one of the
0:08
recent topics in part one about
0:12
machines. Let's begin.
0:15
What is your favorite machine in your
0:17
home? It's the washing machine. I don't
0:20
think I can live without it as I'm too
0:22
reliant on it. I can't hand wash simply
0:25
because my hands are allergic to
0:27
detergent. Whenever my hands are soaked
0:30
in a water with detergent, they get
0:33
itchy and if I scratch them, I easily
0:36
get cuts. So living without a washing
0:39
machine is unimaginable for me. I have a
0:43
lot, but if I could only choose one, it
0:45
would be a computer. Without it, I
0:47
wouldn't be able to make a living since
0:49
my work depends on using a computer.
0:51
Besides, my life would be dull if I had
0:54
no computer since I also use it for
0:57
entertainment purposes.
0:59
Do you think washing machines and
1:01
sweeping machines are important?
1:04
Personally, yes. They make people's
1:06
lives easier. Because of these machines,
1:09
people can make use of their time more
1:11
effectively since they don't need to do
1:14
the cleaning manually. Unlike the past,
1:17
with these washing machines and vacuum
1:20
cleaners, especially those that are
1:23
robotic, people can even do other house
1:26
chores while waiting for their clothes
1:29
and floors to be completely cleaned by
1:32
these machines. Yes, that's without a
1:35
doubt. But it doesn't mean that people
1:36
couldn't live without any of these
1:38
machines. I mean, people in the past
1:41
survived without any of these. So if
1:44
they could live without the depending on
1:46
using these machines, I believe that
1:49
modern people also can. I acknowledge
1:52
that these machines are invaluable, but
1:56
I can live without them. Do you read
2:00
instructions before using a machine?
2:03
I may very lazy person. So most of the
2:05
time I don't. I a person who learns
2:09
things through experience. That means I
2:12
usually learn how to operate a machine
2:14
by exploring it. For instance, when I
2:17
bought a washing machine last time, I
2:19
did not read any manual. I just started
2:22
pressing the label buttons to start
2:25
operating the machine and it worked
2:28
well. That depends on the kind of
2:30
machine. If I'm already familiar with
2:33
machines like washing machines, coffee
2:35
machines, computers and things like
2:37
that, I don't need to read the manuals
2:40
because I have firsthand experience of
2:43
using such machines. However, if it's my
2:47
first time operating a certain type of
2:50
machine, I spend time reading the
2:53
manuals because I don't want to damage
2:56
it. I read the instructions more
2:59
diligently. Do you think it is important
3:02
to read instructions?
3:04
Basically, yes. Instructions are a guide
3:07
on how to do things. But like I said
3:09
earlier, there are some people who don't
3:12
see reading manual instructions of an
3:14
appliance or a machine as a must. People
3:18
like me learn how to operate a machine
3:20
through experience. And we know that
3:23
that's not always the best way. But in
3:26
other aspects like uh taking an exam or
3:29
taking a medication, reading
3:31
instructions cannot be underestimated.
3:35
Yes. And I think that shouldn't be a
3:36
question in the first place. I mean
3:39
people simply fail in competitions or
3:41
exams if they don't read instructions
3:43
carefully or if they don't listen to
3:46
instructions attentively. instructions
3:48
or a guide or a kind of rule that people
3:51
should follow for them to do something
3:53
correctly, effectively, and efficiently.
