ĐỀ 1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
People who live in large cities face a range of problems in their daily life.
What are the main problems people in cities face, and how can these problems
be tackled?
Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own
knowledge or experience. Write at least 250 words.
Đánh giá: đây là dạng đề 3 - yêu cầu người viết nêu NGUYÊN NHÂN & GIẢI
PHÁP cho vấn đề được nêu ra.
These days, more and more of us are

living in big cities, and urban
conurbations are expanding all the time.
Although cities are very attractive
5
places to live, and they provide a wide
range of work and leisure opportunities,
there are also a host of significant social
problems affecting cities. This essay  Người viết báo cho người đọc
will examine some of these problems in thông tin về nội dung bài viết
detail, and then propose some solutions. của mình
(1)
One of the biggest problems facing
people who live in cities is the high
property prices. In many cities, buying a
house near the centre is out of reach for
15
people on the average salary, and they
are forced to live outside the city and to
commute into work. In central London,
for instance, the cost of even a one-  Đưa ví dụ xác thực để tăng độ
bedroom flat is prohibitive for many tin cậy cho quan điểm.
20
people. To solve this problem, the
government could put more resources
into building affordable housing, which
would allow more people to buy their

own home.
(2) 25
Another issue is traffic and air
pollution. Most big cities are overrun
with cars, and there is a great deal of
traffic congestion. The exhaust fumes
from these cars cause air pollution, and
30
as a consequence, more and more
people are suffering from respiratory
diseases, such as asthma. This problem
could be addressed by introducing a
congestion charge for cars entering the
35
city centre, thereby cutting the number
of vehicles on the road.
(3) 37
Finally, another problem is the quality
and cost of public transport. That is to
say, in most capitals, public transport is
inefficient and the infrastructure is old
and inadequate. At the same time, ticket
prices are often too high, which puts
people off using public transport. The
way forward must be to invest more
45
money in trains and buses, and to slash
ticket prices. This would encourage
more people to use public transport.
To sum up, although it is clear that cities  Conclusion: Nêu lại vấn đề
face a range of problems, it is ( ‘although it is … problems,..’)
undoubtedly possible to start to tackle rồi tổng kết lại bằng một ý
these issues, and improve the quality of chung nhất (‘governments and
life in cities. Governments and local local…in the future’)
councils must take the lead in dealing
with these problems, otherwise city life
will only get worse in the future.

Turning to the other side of the
argument, culture shock is a major
problem. Many people who take a year
out find it hard to cope with the
language barrier, the food and general
cultural differences. This often leads to
homesickness and in some cases a sense
of isolation.
Another issue is that it can be difficult to
start a new life from scratch. In other
words, when you move abroad, you
have to make new friends and find your 20
place in the community. This process
takes time and can be especially
challenging if there is also a language
barrier to deal with.

The Internet has undoubtedly made

changes to the way people shop. In
some countries, buying and selling
products online has become
commonplace . Enthusiasts claim that
the Internet offers buyers greater
choice and flexibility. However, those

Firstly, although online shopping
appears to offer greater convenience,
it is often1 rather risky and
cumbersome in practice. Buyers
cannot evaluate the quality of online
products by handling them directly. Vì đã xác định từ đầu là Disagree nên

Secondly, in spite of promise of lower

prices, Internet shopping seldom
offers substantial savings. A
competitive market place ensures that GHI CHÚ:

disappear as suppliers align
themselves with one another. Also, the
cost of postage is normally borne by
the buyer. A product that appears to
be a bargain on screen4 often turns
out to be no cheaper than the same
product bought in a shop. Not
surprisingly, only one in ten
purchases in the UK are made online.
For these reasons, Internet shopping

is likely to remain a minority pursuit.
Shopping in the traditional way
provides consumers the opportunity
to sample, compare and buy products
in a real space which is much more
reliable than in a virtual one.
