<b>I. Read the passage, then decide whether the following statements are True or</b>
<b>False:</b>

I’m in a favour of English- speaking contests in school. Such contests
encourage students to practise speaking English in their classes and help them
improve their speaking skills. Besides, while preparing themselves for the contest,
students have a chance to review their lesson thoroughly. Contests among classes
provide students with opportunities to work with team spirit, thus enabling them to
learn how to cooperate with other people. Some students may think that their
preparation for the speaking contests are time- consuming. However, in my
opinion, such preparations are worth spending time on. My classmates and I have
found that we speak English better after each contest. In sum, English-speaking
contests in school are useful to students.

1. English- speaking contests give students opportunities to practise
speaking English.

2. English- speaking contests provide students with a lot of useful skills.
3. English- speaking contests ask for a thoroughly review.

4. English- speaking contests take a lot of time to prepare.
