Think of a realistic scenario in which you have discussed a problem at school with friends. Maybe the sports equipment is worn out or lunch break is too short because of the busy schedule. Write a plan for three conversations, adjusting your language appropriately.

Incomplete question. The remaining part of the question read;

Write out what you would say to your friends about the problem, using colloquial language.

Next, imagine talking to your parent(s) about the same problem. Write out what you would say.

Now, write out what you would say to the principal.

Finally, imagine that the principal is convinced and schedules you to speak at the next school board meeting. Write out your speech (no more than one-half page).

Step-by-step explanation:

The Scenario: a limited number of computers at the school library.

Conversation with friends: Haven't you notice there are a limited number of computers at the school library, often there aren't any computers to use. I think it is time for us to bring this issue to the school management. I'm going to tell my parents about this.

Conversation with parent(s): So Dad, Mom, I wanted to inform you about issues we have been facing at school, whenever we want to look up answers to assignments on the internet using computers at the library, there are always limited computers available. Do we have any choice?

Conversation with school board: Good day esteemed board members, it is a privilege to address you today. There is no doubt that you all have helped to raise the academic standards of our school since you held your position as board members. However, I would like to bring to the notice of the board the prolonged issue students are facing in the library due to the limited number of computers for academic research. I, therefore, plead with the board to upgrade the school library with more computers so that our students can easily access knowledge. Since knowledge is power, when they do so, they access academic power.
