Part 1
Examiner
Did you do puzzles in your childhood?
Candidate
Yes, I used to really enjoy doing puzzles when I was a kid because there was a stimulating way to challenge my mind and improve my problem solving skills. For example, I often spent hours on weekends putting together complex Jaguars puzzles, which also helps me.
Examiner
When do you do puzzles, during your trip or when you feel bored?
Candidate
I usually do puzzles when I feel bored rather than during trips. Puzzles help me pass the time and keep my mind engaged, especially on quiet afternoons at home, for example, when I have some free time and want to relax without using electric devices.
Examiner
Do you like doing word puzzles or number puzzles? Which is more difficult for you?
Candidate
I prefer doing number puzzles rather than word puzzles because they engage my mathematical thinking and enhance my ability to recognize number recall patterns more effectively. For instance, when I work on number puzzles, I have to concentrate intensely and apply logical reasoning.
Examiner
Do you think it is good for old people to do puzzles?
Candidate
Yes, I believe it is very beneficial for older people to do puzzles. Engaging in puzzles helps keep their minds active and sharp, which can delay cognitive decline. For example, many scenarios find that solving crosswords or number puzzles improves their memory.
