Example of monologue activity:
Two days ago my sister and I went sightseeing in a mall. It was so crowded that we felt uncomfortable to walk around there. Therefore we decided to go out from the mall immediately. While we were walking towards parking lot, we saw a beautiful girl carrying heavy shopping bags to her car. Then I offered some help to her. ` What if I give you a hand with your shopping bags?` I said. She agreed and said calmly: “Thanks. That`s very kid of you”. Since that day I have been thinking about her. I hope I can meet her again someday. It was unforgettable encounter.
