Task 1.

　　Describe the disadvantages of moving to a new place.

　　Well, there are quite a few drags when moving to a new place. To begin with, you don't have any friend, and that can be really stressful since people are social beings, and we need to interact with others occasionally, so living in new place and having no friends can be very lonely. Additionally, since one is new to a place, he or she is not familiar with the town. One might find it difficult to find nice restaurants to eat out, the place to do grocery, and even gas station, and that can be really inconvenient and stressing.

Task 2.

　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Schools need to encourage students to be more creative and use imagination to b e successful person.

　　Well, I couldn't agree more with this idea. To begin with, currently, university and school teach students a lot of theories and concepts, which need a lot of rote memory. To me, it doesn't make a lot of sense since these kinds of so called knowledge are available everywhere, and students needs to be exposed to more creative teaching approaches. More importantly, imagination shelters people, and we can still be happy when bad things happen, and also we can find hope and inspiration when we are desperate if we are a little creative and imaginative.
