🚀 CARS IN 100 YEARS – SPEAKING SAMPLE
🤖 Future predictions: "In a hundred years, cars won't have wheels – they'll hover like maglev trains. Autopilot systems will be standard, parking will be 3D, and fossil fuels will run out. We'll look back and laugh at today's cars!"
✨ Từ khóa: maglev train, autopilot, run out, see sense, a source of amusement.
⚡ DEBATE: City car ownership = waste of time?
🚖 Person A (agree): "In a major city, traffic jams and parking fees make owning a car pointless. Taxis are cheaper and more convenient."
🚗 Person B (MUST disagree): "I totally disagree! Taxis are unreliable and expensive in the long run. A car gives you freedom – you can travel anywhere, rain or shine, and it's more comfortable for families."
💡 Chiến thuật phản biện: dùng "in the long run", "freedom", "cost-effective".
Person A (small car – eco, cheap): "A small car saves fuel and is better for the environment. We don't need to impress anyone."
Person B (large car – disagree): "I strongly disagree. A large car gives our clients a premium image. The extra cost is worth it in the long run."
Part 1 – Buyer asks: "Why are you selling it? Any accidents? Do the windscreen wipers work? Has anyone else driven it?"
Part 2 – After one week (car broken): "The windscreen wipers don't work, the rearview mirror is loose, and the tyres are worn. Fix the problems or give me my money back!"
Seller (Person B – refuses): "The car is sold as seen. Fix it yourself – it's no longer my problem."
"My granddad gave us his old Austin 8 – it had been sitting in the garage for years. It didn't have proper indicators, but it started first time. We drove 50km with Mum at 60kph while cars overtook us. The smell of the musty leather seats still sticks in my mind."
