Answers
You can either use the following conversation for your ASL task 3 or formulate your own taking ideas from it:
Student A: Hey where have you been? I looked for you everywhere! There is something important I want your opinion on.
Student B: I was at accounts office depositing my examination fee. What has happened?
Student A: You know, last week we had Inter-House debate competition. You also know that Shobha, my partner forgot her debate due to which we could not win the debate competition. She has been feeling really depressed and upset since then!
Student B: Yes, I remember very vividly. Had she done proper preparation and rehearsal, our House would definitely have won the laurels. But that is over now. Everyone has forgotten it!
Student A: That’s true! She must also forget it and move ahead. Crying over the spilt milk is not a healthy attitude.
Student B: I think we need to talk to her. We need to tell
her winning and losing are parts of life. Our wins an losses are determined by our own efforts. No one else is responsible for our failures except us!
Student A: We must also tell her failures are the best lessons in our life. Our failures are our stepping stones provided we have the right attitude!
Student B: We must tell her all great personages about whom we study and who inspire us faced failures. Abraham Lincoln, Helen Keller, Einstein, William Douglas, etc. all faced failures.
Student A: We must tell her it is not the end of it! There will be more such competitions in which she can take part and prove her worth.
Student B: All she needs is reorient and refocus her energies and practice and practice. Let’s go to her and motivate her.
Student A: Sure, all she needs is putting her perspective in the right direction and let go the past!
Student B: We can ask our other friends to talk to her also. If required we may take her to the school counselor, she can really put her perspective right.
Student A: Perfect! Let’s first try ourselves. We must give her the self-help book by Louis L hay You Can Do It. it will really motivate her to keep trying.
Follow up Questions:
It is likely that .......?
It is likely that he/she did not practice as hard as was required. I will tell him/her not to lose hope as there are many more elocution contests in which he/she can take part.
How would you ....?
I would try to bring his attention to the great personages who also failed before becoming successful. For example, I will tell him about Helen Keller, Mahatma Gandhi, Einstein, and Lincoln. They also failed. But they did not quit. They kept trying. So I will ask him to keep trying for the next contests.
