Warming up ➋ Work in pairs and discuss the questions. 1 Which of the personal qualities in Activity 1 are positive? Hard-working, fair, thoughtful and social are all positive. Then there are some qualities which are positive in small amounts: respect, ambition, strong will and liking to give to others. Having too much of these, however, can be harmful. 2 Which of them are negative, and why? Shyness is negative – not in the sense of being bad, but it makes life harder. Envy is ugly. Argumentative people are no pleasure to be with. I am not sure about liking to be alone. If it means avoiding people, it’s negative, but if it means you are happy to spend time alone reading and thinking, that’s rather good
