Review Task 3: Write your opinion. Do you agree with the writer’s opinion? Why? Why not? 

Write in three-four sentences or 40 to 50 words.  => Share good ones: Akira and Yuki

I agree with the writer’s opinion. It’s important for senior high school students to think about their future. They need to decide what to study at university. If they work as a part-timer, they will have a clearer image of the society. (42 words)

I don’t agree with the writer’s opinion. It’s not always safe for senior high school students to work outside schools. They can learn many things by studying hard and participating in volunteer work or club activities. They don’t have to do part-time jobs to learn discipline and independence. (48 words)

Reading practice checking how relative pronouns are used in the text.
