Situation 3
(In class)
There some arguments occur among group 1.

Sun : I dont want to be in this group with both of you, I just hope to be in Lims
group.
Balkis : me too! I just dont understand what are you trying to express? And Devi,
your Indian slang make me hard to get what are you talking about.
Sun : You think Im glad to be in same group? I dont like to stay in this group with
different racesSome of you like to complete the task in last minutes. When
discussion session, you just keep quiet and without any contribution towards the
group!
Devi : shut up you all! Dont argue like a child okay? Make me shame only to be a
part of this group. Whats the matter about my slang? This is an appropriate English!
Why I should be the member of the group who are poor in English? I rather do
assignment myself without your help. You guys are troublemakers for me.
Balkis : Fine! But you cant judge me because now Im the group leader; you all must
listen to me. You must follow my instructions and stop complaining about the group
division.
Sun : Sorry I am not free to make discussion, dont ask me to prepare anything.
( Sun walk out from classroom)
