[ Speech 1 ]
 
One day, a couple was having coffee at home. The wife was showing an article in the newspaper that said "popularity of food trucks increasing." She said "this would be a great business." Her husband was listening to her, while having a cup of coffee. He nodded and agreed with her.
 
Two weeks later, the couple was at a used-car shop. A sales person was showing them an old car. The wife thought that if she washed the car, it would be clean enough to use as a food truck.
 
On the opening day, the couple started to sell sandwiches outside on a busy street. There were a lot of people waiting in line to buy their sandwiches. They were busy taking care of their customers, but they looked happy.
 
One year later, some other people also began their business in the same way and the same area. Many people were waiting in line for their food. The husband said "the new trucks took our customers."

[ Questions ]
 
No.1 Please look at the fourth picture. If you were the woman, what you would be thinking?
 
I'd be thinking that we might need to move to a different location where there are not so many competitors around. If we keep doing our business here, we might lose a lot of profits.
 
No.2 Do you think a system of giving tips for good service should be introduced in restaurants in Japan?
 
I don't think so. The quality of service in Japan is already good enough without any tips. Also, most Japanese people would be confused ( with how much they should pay ) if a tipping system was introduced in Japan.
 
No.3 Should people consider environmental friendliness when buying a car?
 
I believe so. An environmental problem, such as global warming, is becoming a serious social issue these days. Although products that are good for the environment can be morre expensive, we need to consider choosing them in order to protect the natural environment.
 
No.4 Should companies make more effort to contribute to society?
 
Yes. large companies make a lot of profits in society where they are located, so they have an obligation to give something back to that society they get their money from. Also if they make contribution to society, they would be well recognized, and they will be able to make even more profits after all.
