A dialogue about stressful activities (interview, traffic, school, late to work) example:
Interlocutor: Now, I'd like you to talk about something together for about thiee minutes I'm just going to listen. Here are some pictures of common situatiors. Talk to each other about how stressful you think each one can be, then choose the three that yGu think are the most stressful. It is not necessary to agree with each other SA:Hmm... here's people moving house. I think that's pretty stressful, don't you?
SB: Well...I'm not so sure. I think it's not so bad. You just have to pack everything up and move on to your next place. But I do think that going to the dentist is stressful. SA: Oh, so do I! It's stressful because you have no control.
SB: That's right. And you don't know what's going to happen next. Look at this woman eating in the car. I think she's in a hurry.
SA: Yes. I think that's very stressful because you have no time to enjoy your food, and you'll probably get indigestion, too!
SB: Mmmm... I don't mind that: I'm always eating in a hurry! I don't think it's very stressful. But look at this one. This poor boy sitting in an exam, Now exams are stressful, really stressful: sometimes you can get a blank and you just can't think of anything to write.
SA: Yes, agree with you there. People can get very nervous, too, so they don't do their best. Exams are certainly stressful. What about these people here? What do you think they're doing?
SB: Mmmm ... I'm not sure. They seem to be in a hurry, don't they?
SA: Yes, they do. Maybe they're rushing to work. Maybe they're late. Do you think that's stressful?
SB: Yes, I think being late is stressful because you can't relax and you know that everyone is waiting for you.​
