In my opinion Sayed Mohamed
My point is … I really think so. The important thing is … We need to remember that … I don’t really agree. I don’t believe that. For me, the most important thing is … I can see your point, but … I’m not sure. I’m afraid I don’t agree. I think … Are you kidding?
Work with a partner What makes a good friend? Think of 3 ideas or more.
….is someone you can trust. ….is someone fun to be with. ….is always honest. ….has the same interests as you. ….helps with problems.
It seems like a good idea to me. Have you seen this article about the new cloning research? Yes. I read it this morning. I can’t believe it. They’re going to clone human hearts. It seems like a good idea to me. A good idea? You’re not serious, are you? No, really. Think of the medical uses. But  think about it. It’s a little weird. I don’t think so. Cloning
Work with a partner Is it sometimes okay to tell a lie? Should you always pay attention to what other people think? Is life more difficult now than when your parents were young? Is it ok to marry a rich person you don’t know very well? Is cloning good or bad? Is the world’s biggest problem war? Are most people good? Are UFOs real? Yes, I think it is. No, I don’ think they are. I’m not sure.
Work with a partner Is it important to study the past? Do people worry about appearance too much? Is freedom more important than safety? Is telepathy possible? Is it important to listen to your heart more than your head? Is the world’s biggest problem war? Is it ok to believe in good luck and bad luck? Yes, I think it is. No, I don’ think they are. I’m not sure. Why do you think so?
To give your opinion: My point is … We need to remember that … The important thing is … When you don’t understand: I’m sorry. I couldn’t catch that. What do you mean by…? Do you mean… When you don’t agree: I can see your point, but…. I’m afraid I don’t agree. I think… No way! I believe …  When you agree: I think so, too. That’s right! Absolutely!
