My mother is the person whom I love and admire most. She is very helpful, friendly and
humorous. She never ignores any opportunity to help someone in need, with a smile on her
face. If a member in my family has sorrow, she will always be willing to give out lots of useful

4: Advantages of wearing uniforms :


It is quite clear that the wearing of uniforms is required by the majority of school nowadays as a
result of its remarkle benefits.
First, school uniforms help students be distinct from other people. We can identify who
really are students and who are from outside if they wear uniforms. Moreover, students who
wear uniform can be helped by many people. For example, when people see a student wearing
uniform, those people will believe in them and help them very much.
Secondly, school uniforms make student feel equal. Both rich and poor students have to
wear the same uniforms so they will be treated fairly. Besides, school uniforms help poor pupils
feel more comfortable when they study at school. There are no differences between them, so
they can make friend and focus on their study.
Finally, students will be proud of their school when they wear uniforms. For instance, if
there is a contest among all of schools of the city, students will feel more confident and
participate in activities with high energy to demonstrate their school is good.
In short, wearing school uniform helps students a lot in their life and make them feel right
when choosing the school to study.

TOPIC 5: Disadvantages of wearing uniforms


There has been an endless debate on whether or not wearing uniform is nescesary. I personally
think that wearing uniform brings about numerous minus points. In the first place, school
uniforms price is not always reasonable for parents to afford. Uniforms may even cost a hefty
amount of money. Thus, it would be drastic if these clothes are obligated. Despite community
involvement, charitable giving, and other forms of economic balancing, there are always
families which struggle to put their children into school uniforms. Secondly, uniforms reduce
the individuality of the student population within a school district. Students who are in a district
with a strict uniform policy lose their ability to express their personalities through fashion.
Although there are many influences that can reshape students thinking patterns. This type of
policy can be a foundational element of it if the uniform policies are not carefully introduced
and monitored.
Moreover, scholars in school uniforms still experience bullying. Even though uniforms are
meant to get rid of discrimination and prevent students from expressing their bad behaviors,
once finding a way of rebelling against the rules, bullies will continue to do harm to whoever
they want to. In conclusion, it is schools’ responsibility to considerate making students wear
uniforms for their own good.

Version 2:
Some people think that students should wear school uniforms at school, while others
think that they just need to wear casual clothes. In my opinion, students shouldn’t wear
uniforms at school due to these reasons
First of all, a great number of students and their parents complain that wearing a school
uniform doesn’t let students express themselves. Students not wearing a school uniform can
experiment with different clothing styles in order to find something that will suit them and their
personalities.
Secondly, teachers usually have to work with big groups of students. This means that they
need to remember many different names. It is often so that they can recognize this or that
student by look only. School uniform makes it impossible for the teacher to visually identify a
certain student.
Finally, people are different and their tastes are different as well. To some students it may
be especially troubling to wear the clothes which don’t bring them any satisfaction.
Furthermore, physical features of all are different and there’s no guarantee that the school
uniform will suit all the students equally.
From my point of view, it is extremely important to weigh the pros and cons before
setting up school uniform rule at school.

TOPIC 6: Advantages of wearing casual clothes


From my point of view, I think it is advisable that students should wear casual clothes to school
because of these following reasons. Firstly, wearing daily clothes makes students feel more
comfortable. As a matter of fact, some school uniforms are made from unfit materials. Thus,
students may feel uncomfortable when wearing them, which directly affect their performances
at school. Secondly, casual clothes give student freedom of choice. They can choose to wear
what they like to express their own styles, personalities. Therefore, students’ self-esteem will
be raised Last but not least, daily clothes make school a more colourful and lively environment.
Instead of being in white all the time,which is boring, pupils can choose different colours to
wear to school. As far as I am concerned, it is clear that students should wear casual clothes to
school. (138 words)

Version 2:
From my perspective, it’s necessary for secondary students to wear casual clothes when
they are at school because of the following reasons.
First and foremost wearing casual clothes makes students feel comfortable for a new day.
Therefore, their academic performance can be enhanced remarkably especially when they are in
their favorite clothes. The pupil doesn't feel constrained to wear uniforms that they don't want.
The second point is that wearing casual clothes gives scholars a sense of freedom and
creativity. Students can have opportunities to choose their favorite clothes with different labels,
colors, style, which can assist them to be more flexible and innovative. Also, they have the right
to express their characters and personality through what they wear. Just imagining when you
walk into a school where everyone wears uniforms. Everyone is indistinguishable because they
are very similar when wearing uniforms.
Last but not least, it makes schools more colorful and lively. Each student has his own
color, which creates an exciting and interesting environment to be efficient in studying.
In short, it is recommended that students be allowed to wear what they want to school.

TOPIC 7: Disadvantage of wearing casual clothes


Nowadays, many schools don’t allow students to wear casual clothes due to some following
drawbacks it brings about. To begin with, usual clothes undoubtedly lead to the background
discrimination. To illustrate, while the rich students who often put on expensive and popular
costumes, others just can afford cheap and simple ones. As a result, those pupils may feel
unconfident and even be isolated from their friends. Second, wearing normal clothes is certainly
impractical. Every morning, it takes pupils such a lot of time to think and pick out what to wear
that day; otherwise, they can sleep more or spend some minutes revising the lessons. Besides,
parents also have to waste a great deal of money for their children to keep up with the current
trend and avoid being out of fashion. Last but not least, casual clothes make it hard to identify
which schools students come from. In some cases, few pupils after being caught doing bad
deeds often tell the wrong schools to avoid punishments. Consequently, the image of those
schools especially which have high quality will be appreciated incorrectly. To sum up, casual
clothes should not be encouraged at school on account of the aforementioned disadvantages.

TOPIC 8: Disadvantages of living in big city.


In recent years, there has been a considerable rise in the number of people moving to the
city. Besides many benefits it brings about, living here also has numerous disadvantages.
First of all, the urban living goes along with the lack of green spaces. For instance, it goes
without saying that the more the city is modernized, the more tall buildings are built. Therefore,
it is hard for citizens to relax and breathe the fresh air after a working day.
Secondly, when people settle in urban areas, they are likely to deal with traffic problems.
Namely, inhabitants have the habit of using private transport. As a result, they will get stuck
while travelling during rush hours. In addition, city dwellers are always at risk of encountering
accidents.
Last but not least, civilians usually cope with serious crime. An obvious example is that they
are more likely to be robbed when living in a large city than in a small town. Thus, they have to
watch out social evils and terrorisms.
In short, due to these above reasons, people should take living in cities into account.

TOPIC 9: Disadvantages of living in big city


In recent years, there is a tendency of people rushing to big cities. However, living in big cities
also has numerous drawbacks because of these following reasons. First of all, air pollution is a
major problem that city people have to face. The number of factories is rapidly increasing, and it
will make the air extremely polluted by smokes from factories and vehicles. This leads to
environmental problems which seriously affects people’s health. Secondly, the lack of safety is
known as a big disadvantage in big cities. Big cities tend to have a higher crime rate; therefore, it
is really hard to control crimes and social evils in such a complex society. Moreover, the traffic
problems can cause serious accidents which, in some cases, threaten our life. Last but not least,
traffic jams is an unavoidable problem in big cities. People cannot move to another place in time
at rush hour because the road is packed with people and vehicles. In conclusion, living in big
cities has some worth-noticing disadvantages; therefore, people should take its drawbacks into
consideration before deciding to follow this ongoing trend. (185 words)
Version 2: for speaking
As everyone knows, in recent years, there are a lot of people who move to big cities to live.
This tendency can bring about a lot of advantages as follows.
First and foremost, a big city has a variety kinds of entertainment such as cinemas,
museums, parks. Therefore, those who live in urban areas are able to reduce their stress after a
hard working day by watching a film or going round at the park.
Second, living in urban areas enables the residents to have good jobs with high salaries. As
a result, they seem to have enough money to support their families as well as travel and enjoy
themselves.
Finally, city lives make one more active and confident. Dwellers need to be very active in
order to keep up with the fast pace of the city.
In short, living in urban areas benefits people a lot and it is advisable that each person
should live in the city to better his life.
TOPIC 10: Advantages of living in the countryside
Nowadays, people tend to live in the countryside because of the following reasons. First of all,
the atmosphere in the countryside is more peaceful and quiet. There aren’t many big buildings
like in the city. Therefore, it is less noisy to live in the countryside. Therefore it is an ideal place
to relax and refresh your mind after a hard-working day. Secondly, living in the country can bring
you a clean environment. The air is fresher and there are lots of trees. There isn't as much traffic,
smog or pollution from industrial factories. Consequently, the countryside is not as
contaminated with toxic pollutants and poisons as the city. Finally, people in the country are
friendlier and more outgoing than city dwellers. They live near each and often communicate
with one another in their free time. Sometimes, people hold festivals and games for the whole
neighbourhood to participate. In conclusion, countryside life undoubtedly is better suited to the
elderly and children. (160 words)
Version 2:
In this day and age, there has been an increase in the number of people living in the
countryside. In my opinion, this can bring about several plus points as follows.
First of all, living in the country can provide us with a clean environment. In fact, in the
suburb, the air is fresher and there are lots of trees, rice fields and rivers. Hence, we can walk
across the fields or along the rivers to enjoy the clean and fresh air here in the early morning.
Secondly, living in the countryside is cheaper than in the city. People there have lower
income and don’t have the habit of spending a lot of money, so if we live in the country, we can
save a lot of money.
Last but not least, people in the countryside are more friendly and opener than those in
the city. Since suburban live together in a small village, they can talk to each other about their
everyday life and help their neighbors if they get into troubles.
Taking everything into account, I think we should consider moving to the countryside to
settle down in the future as a good idea.
TOPIC 11: Disadvantages of living in the countryside:
It is undeniable that living in the rural areas brings about a lot of advantages, but honestly,
in my opinion, it also has many disadvantages.
Weather can be a large drawback to people who live the countryside. In some parts of the
country, the winters bring blizzards and the spring brings torrential rains and flooding. Though
some country roads are paved, many are still dirt or gravel. During blizzards, you may find that it
takes snow plows days to reach your house, so you must plan to be snowed in for an extended
period of time every once in awhile. During a flood, you also may be confined to your house if
the roads into town are under water.
The second minus point is travel time. Living in the country takes more time when it comes
to planning activities and arriving at places on time. When you live in the countryside, it may
take you substantially longer than your friends who live in the city to get places. Often you must
leave earlier to get to events, including school or work.
Last but certainly not least, isolation can be considered to be a hard problem to deal with. It
can be easy for people who live in the country to become isolated. People often find it
inconvenient to drive into town. So that their friends may find it bothersome to drive out for
visits. This type of behavior could potentially take a toll on your relationships if you let it come to
that.
In conclusion, I think besides advantages, living in the countryside also has many
drawbacks.

TOPIC 12: A country picnic


Last summer, I had an unforgettable trip with my family to the countryside. We woke up early in
the morning to get ready for our trip. And at 6 am sharp, the bus arrived to pick us up and
headed to our destination. I was very excited about the trip because I hadn’t visited my
grandparents for a long time. It didn’t take too long to get to the village. When we reached my
grandparents’ house, my grandmother was preparing lots of food to welcome us when we
arrived. I was so happy to see my grandparents after such a long time. After lunch, we took a
nap. In the afternoon, my grandfather took my family to go fishing in the lake near our house.
We did not come back home until late at night. I hugged my grandparents and waved them
goodbye before getting on the bus. It was such an amazing trip that I could not for forget it and I
hope I can come back to the countryside more often (174 words)
Version 2:
After a stressful semester, my parents decide take me to the country to visit grandparents, leave
the noise of city behind. Homeland is a small and peaceful land, beside the Red River. The
atmosphere here is very fresh; there is no noise, no pollution as in the city I am living. On two
sides of the road there are the rows of green trees and birds singing beside the ears. In front of
my grandparents’s house is a small garden. Every morning, after sweeping the house, I am taken
to the garden to water vegetables, feed chickens. The feeling of watching the little yellow
chickens run around the legs is really amazed. In the afternoon, my brother leads me to fly kites
on the long dyke with children in the neighborhood. These children also think some interesting
games such as chasing, hide and seek ... For me, everything here is new and amazing. After the
trip, I know how to swim and learn many things. I hope next summer parents will take me to visit
the grandparents again.

TOPIC 13: The importance of learning English


It is undoubted that learning English nowadays is of great importance due to the following
reasons. Firstly, English is an international language. English is the most commonly spoken
language in the world. One out of five people can speak or at least understand English so it is
definitely easy to communicate, travel,and entertain. Furthermore, being able to understand
English gives you access to all kind of resources such as music, science, art, sports and business.
Also, because the primary language of the information age we live in is English, it can give users
access to the information in the internet, such as social media, manuals and guides. Secondly,
English offers employment. These days, the job market is global; therefore many companies
need employees who can communicate with partners and clients all over the world. Very often,
that means finding employees who speak English, thus providing new opportunities locally and
globally. Finally, learning English makes you smarter. Research shows that learning another
language, especially English, makes brain stronger and more versatile, improving the ways of
thinking. Besides, bilingualism also helps with memory, concentration and creativity. Well, to
sum up, I believe it is necessary to learn English these days.
Version 2:
SAMPLE : oral presentation
SAMPLE
Topic: There are a lot of benefits of learning English. Your opinion? / What are the benefits of
learning English?
Well, first of all, I think learning English can let a person easily find more job
opportunities not only in his or her home country, but around the world as well. Actually, this is
due to the fact that English is often considered the language of global business. The
international business community often uses it for communication, even among people who do
not speak the same native language.
Actually, from my point of view, I think learning English broadens their employment
opportunities, since, you know, it is used so commonly in business. People who speak two or
more languages are often ideal candidates for jobs in travel, international business, or
translation. As you know, many government agencies and employers that offer work with the
general public, such as positions in law enforcement or healthcare, often look for multilingual
candidates.
In addition, as far as I am concerned, many people see the ability to communicate and
talk with others as one of the major benefits of learning English. In fact, even outside of a
professional environment, people often like to be able to talk to individuals from around the
world. Besides, you know, many people find great social and cultural benefits in having pen
pals from other countries, and the Internet makes such communication fast and easy.
Another benefit that I’d like to point out is that a great number of the most prominent
and well known publications throughout the world are written and printed in English.
Therefore, I believe that learning English helps scholars in their studying; doing research at an
academic level, or working on new scientific developments by reading these issues and publish
their own work.
Last but not least, I'll say that a huge amount of popular entertainment comes out of
Hollywood, and nearly all of it is produced in English. In fact, American movies and TV programs
are distributed all over the world. Therefore, you know, knowing English can allow you to
better understand the subtleties of dialog that subtitles frequently miss.

TOPIC 14: Advantages of the Internet


In the modern worlds today, it is an undisputable fact that the Internet has brought
numerous benefits. First of all, it is a rich source of information. Through the internet, you can
get information of almost all fields from science, technology, current affairs to prices of the
latest fashion. You can also find a wide range of information on a certain topic, which is very
useful as you have chance to consider different ideas on the same topic, or to understand it from
different aspects. The internet is also the place where they can learn and widen their knowledge
in different fields, just a click you can get a great deal of information you need, which is much
quicker than visiting libraries or making expensive phone calls. What’s more, the internet is an
incredibly useful and powerful tool of communication, which makes it easier to keep in contact
with family and friends and communicate with people from around the world through email and
social networking websites like Facebook, or Ttwitter. Finally, you can do the online shopping,
which otherwise may take you a few hours. In conclusion, the Internet is a great tool with plenty
of advantages which should be made the best use of.

TOPIC 15: Disadvantages of the Internet
It is true that the Internet is a great invention. However, it also has numerous disadvantages.
Firstly, it can cause mental problems. The people using internet often will find it difficult to
differentiate between virtual and real world. Social network sites can also lead to depression as
many people tend to compare their lives with others. Furthermore, less interaction and face-to-
face communication in reality may result in the decrease in networking abilities. Secondly,
internet users can suffer from personal information leaking. Hackers can create viruses that can
get into your personal computer and ruin valuable data. Users' personal information such as
name, address, credit card, bank details and other information can be accessed by culprits when
used on the Internet, resulting in big economic loss. Last but not least, Internet crimes. Anyone
who has spent time on the Internet has encountered trolls or abusive people. Another issue that
has increased over the years is cyber-bullying. With people sharing information on the Internet,
it's also easier for stalkers to find personal information about others through various means. In
conclusion, the Internet users should learn how to use the internet sensibly to avoid its
drawbacks. (193 words)
Version 2:
It is undeniable that the Internet is being widely used . However, it can also bring about
some drawbacks as follows.
First and foremost, using the Internet may be a waste of time. Many people spend too
much time surfing the Internet, which makes them less concentrate on other things but the
website that they usually surf. Second, the Internet may have bad effects on users’ studying and
working results. This is due to the fact that they use the internet too much and do not have time
to work or study. Therefore, they have poor performances at schools or offices. Finally, some
websites on the internet can result in youngsters’ behavior and attitude. Nowadays, there are
numerous contents which are not suitable for the young and are not censored carefully such as
violence or pornography. As a consequence, children seem to have bad behavior and act more
violently than those tho donot get access to those contents.
In short, the internet might have some disadvantages. Hence, it is advisable that users use it
in reasonable time and for suitable purposes.
Topic 11:Disadvatages of living in the countryside
Every coin has 2 sides,and it is the fact that the life in the countryside has some drawbacks
besides some benefits.First of all,low-qualified infrastructure is one of them.It is obvious that
there exists fewer servicing constructures like hospitals ,supermarkets,offices in the countryside
than in the city due to the lack of investment.Therefore,the government cannot fully supply the
demand of services of dwellers,which creates an uncomfortable and inconvenient
life.Secondly,the ill-equipped education should also be mentioned.As a matter of fact,there
are just few high qualified shools are built in the countryside.Hence,the nuber of well-trained
teachers,professors together with morden learning devices may be lacked.Besides,the local
authorities seem to pay less attention to education than those in the city.So,this may results in
difficulties in study.Last but not least,limited choice of job is another con.As countryside has
just a small number of companies and industrial areas and the major job here is simply
agriculture,this may lead to the invariety of occupations and is likely to increase the rate of
unemployment.In short,living in rural areas brings about three main drawbacks as
aformentioned.

family members gather to converse with each other or have meals together. In conclusion, Tet

Topic 17 : What should we do to protect the environment?
In the recent years, it is apparent that the environment is at risk of pollution. Therefore,
several practical measures will be suggested to protect our surrounding from being badly
contaminated.
First of all, the government should encourage residents to stop or reduce their use of
plastic bags. For instance, they can organize some events to raise people’s awareness of the
negative influence of plastic bags. Also, citizens ought to make use of cloth bags as well as
reusable beverage containers . Secondly, civilians are responsible for saving energy. It is highly
recommended that they make changes by using solar energy instead of burning coal. As a
result, not only can they alleviate their power consumption but they are also helping to decline
air pollution. Lastly, inhabitants are advised to walk or ride a bicycle to work instead of driving a
car or motorbike. This can make a huge decline in emitting carbon dioxide. In addition, the
authorities are in charge of giving dwellers incentives to plant more trees and prevent
deforestation.
All things considered, the environmental protection is of great importance. Thus, it is
advisable that people should put the above measures into practice.

Topic 18 : Should students are allowed to bring cell phones to school?
In the industrialized era, it is undeniable that cell phones have changed human lives with better
changes. However, in my opinion, it is advisable that students shouldn’t be permitted to bring
cell phones to school.
First of all, it is apparent that scholars can be easily distracted and disrupted during curriculums.
With many fascinating apps in smartphones, pupils are likely to tempt to games, youtube, social
web pages,..instead of paying attention to lessons. Hence, this will lead to a deterioration in
academic performance and exam results. Secondly, cheating can be raised with the help of
cellphones while taking tests. They are helpful and convenient tools for students to stay
informed and get access to information, which can cause frequent cheating among students at
present. Last but not least, cell phones are costly and likely to be stolen or lost. The frequent
phenomenon can alleviate the reputation of schools and also other students may mimic these
matters, which can give rise to moral recession among scholars.
In a nutshell, it is vital that the administrators should enact stringent laws to limit the issue of
students bringing cell phones to school.

Topic 19: The importance of the environment.
It is undeniable that environment plays an important role in everyone’s life.
Firstly, The food chain is an example of a vital part of the ecosystem. In fact, plants use sunlight,
water, and elements in soil and air to create food for themselves. They are in turn eaten by
animals and micro-organisms. Humans are the top of the food pyramid in any ecosystem
because they use plants and animals for food.
Secondly, the environment provides people with life sustenance. Trees in the
environment produce oxygen for humans to inhale . In addition, they also use carbon dioxide in
the air and reduce its concentrations in the atmosphere in photosynthesis. This process
regulates and maintains the carbon cycle.
Another reason the environment is so important is because it is a source of natural
beauty. As a matter of fact, people enjoy nature for recreation, sports such as skiing in snow or
rafting, and tourism. Moreover, nature is considered necessary for proper physical and mental
health too, according to the University of Minnesuota.
Considering all those above, I think Individuals and governments should join hands to
protect our surrounding against pollution damges

Topic 20: What should we do to protect the environment?
In the recent years, it is apparent that the environment is at risk of being polluted badly.
Therefore, several practical measures will be taken to protect it.
In the first place, residents are in charge of reducing their garbage. For example, they
should try to buy things that are wrapped simply without lots of packaging like papers or boxes.
Also, if they buy high-quality products, they will make a decline in the use of energy. Thus, they
are joining their hands to reduce waste. Secondly, citizens ought to reuse things. Namely, it is
better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. In addition, they can make the habit of
using cloth bags instead of plastic. As a result, not only do they make disposing trash easier but
they also can earn money from returning bottles. Lastly, the environment will be less
contaminated if people are aware of recycling. As an illustration, when they collect and recycle
cans which are expensive to make, they assist in saving one of the world’s resources.
To summarize, people had better take action now to maintain the surrounding before it is
too late for them to do so.

Topic 21:The importance of reading books


It is irrefutable that reading books plays an intergral role in the life.First of all,get exposed to
books greatly enhances readers’ knowledge.Books,without doubt, provide people with a lot of
information in a variety of fields.Also,the information contained in books is remarkably reliable
as it is carefully sencored.Therefore, with the help of books,readers can expand their
knowledge effectively.Secondly,books give people amazing entertainment.Interestingly,when
reading books,readers can lose themselves in great stories or novels,which assists them to
forget all difficulties they meet in the real life.As a result,people can escape from the busy life
pace and have for their owns some peaceful moments with no stress and pressure but only
relaxation.Lastly,reading books highly promote people’s analytical ability.As a matter of
fact,when reading a booj,readers have to try to make sense of the plots twist and the
meaningful implications which authors want to reveal.To do this,they need to analyze every
single detail in the story logically.Hence,their analytical can be improved through pages,which
supports them a lot in their life.In conclusion,reading books is very important in this day and
age.

Topic 22:What should we do to reduce the damage of natural disasters.
There are three major suggestions which are useful to reduce the damage of natural disasters.
The first one is to set up some aid groups.More precisely, an aid group should be established in
every city to supply food for people who are in hunger after the havoc of the disasters and also
accomodate homeless people permanently in some shelters.What’s more,this group will even
provide victims with timely medical care in case they are injured.Secondly,careful weather
prediction is another point.To do this,the quality of weather breau should be highly improved
with some training courses. Obviously, the damage of natural disasters can be greatly reduced
if the informtion of the disasters are sent to every single person to help them know the right
time to evacuate and protect valuables.Last but not least,providing people with lessons to cope
with natural disasters is also important.In order to put this into practice,the government should
supply dwellers with aid hotlines for people to call for help in risky situations during the
occurrence of natural disasters.Also,these hotlines can be used to sent knowledge of self
protecting against natural disasters to people.In conclusion,we can follow the aformentioned
steps to diminish the havoc of natural disasters.

Topic23:Some people prefer learning from books while others prefer learning from
experiences.What’s your opinion ?
In my opinion,we should both learn from books and from experience as they are all
beneficial.First of all,in terms of books,they provide us with a great amount of fundamental
knowledge.As we know,if we want to practice one deed,we will do it better if we have insightful
understanding of it.Therefore,when learning from books,we can get exposed to one problem
from their roots,which helps us a lot when we experience it in real life.And,without books,it is
hardly possible for us to approach the reliable knowledge needed during the real life
experience.However, learning only via books is not enough.Learning from experience is
extremely indispensible.In fact,study with only theory without practice seems to limit the ability
of learners as theory is quite different from the reality.Hence,when experiencing,we have
opportunities to not only revise what we have learned from books but also get access to
relevant problems by facing some challenges during the process of experience.So,by learning
with experience,knowledge can be strongly engraved in people’s minds and learners can also
absorb the life knowledge effectively.In conclusion,I hold a firm belief that the balance of
learning from books and experience will be an effectve learning method.

Topic 24:It is said that life skills are more important than academic knowledge.What’s your
opinion ?
In my opnion,I hold a bias that life skills are more intergral than academic knowledge.First of
all,with life skills,we can be better at socialization.Precisely,when having good life skills
especially communicating skills,people re llikely to communicate flexibly and resolve the
problems in the conversations sensibly.Therefore,people with good soft skills can create
manifold social relationships which helps them a lot in their life.Secondly,life skills raised the
chances of being employed for special jobs.As a matter of fact,many big companies are mostly
interested in emplyees having a stable foundation of life skills rather than academic
performances as they have abilities to solve problems in their work wisely.Therefore,life skills
assist people to get well qualified career and high status in the life.life skills give us more
various knowledge than academic theories.Obiviously,academic teaching programmes are
limited in lots of fields while the real life skills are open to different sectors.Hence,it is better for
people to use life skills to get access to more interesting information.In coclusion,I hold a firm
belief that life skills are more important than academic knowledge

Topic 25:What are negative impacts of social webpages on teenagers?
It is undeniable that social webpages can trigger a variety of drawbacks.Firstly,social websites
drammatically results in the young’s health obstacles.Due to the excessive use of social
networks,teenagers are likely to suffer from some physical heath issues like obesity or short-
sightedness.Increasingly,when utilizing social media,youngsters may tolerate some critical
comments frm other users,which might lead to their psychological problems.Secondly,another
drawback of social media is the insecurity.As a matter of fact,when using sicial webpages,some
teenagers are prone to have interaction with stragers and even share their private personal
information.Moreover,some teens are not aware enough of the online criminals.As a
consequent,bad guys will take these opportunities to commit social evils like kidnapping or
ransoming.Last but not leats,tme-consuming issue is another diasadvantage.In fact,if children
overuse the social media,they can easily get addicted to them,which makes them ignore their
studies.As a result,this may lower their academic performance at schools.Also,the addiction of
social webages can results In the reduction of teenagers’ interaction with their family members
and friends in real life.In conclusion,social webpages can do harm to the young to three main
sides as aforementioned.
(176 w)
Topic 26:It is said that the problems of mobile phones outweigh the benefits.What’s your
opinion?
In my opinion,I totally come to an understanding that the drawbacks of mobile phones
outweigh its benefits.First of all,the excessive use of smartphones can lead to the risks of
different diseases.When using cellphones,users’eyes receive a great number of eye harmful
blue rays.If people use them without suitable relaxation,they are likely to be short-
sighted.Also,when being glued to the phone screens,users have a tendency to act less and the
result is suffering from obesity. What’more,the rays from smartphones negatively affect
users’brain which prove to drammatically reduce peoples’memorial spans.Therefore,mobile
phones can definitely negatively affect our well being silently.Secondly,time-consuming issue is
another diasadvantage.In fact,if people overuse the mobile phones,they can easily get addicted
to them,which makes them ignore their studies and work.As a result,this may lower their
academic performance at schools or their working productivity .Also,the addiction of social
webages can results In the reduction of people’ interaction with their family members and
friends in real life.This may lead to communiative issues and even more the brakedown of
important relationships in reality.In conclusion,social webpages can do harm to the young to
three main sides as aforementioned.

Topic 27: The importantance of saving energy
These days,saving energy is of great importance as three mảo reasons.The first one is that
energy sources affect the current life.As a matter of fact,the more we exploit the energy
resources without saving,the sparser they become.As a result,this will lead to the exorbitant
cost of fossil fuels,which may contribute to the national economy crisis.Secondly,energy saving
helps save money.With the appropriate exploitation of natural resources,money would be
spent less on the exploiting process and it may be intended for studies or researches of
alternative kinds of power and environmental protection.Therefore,not only can nations insure
their finance but the solutions to pollution can also be paid more attention.Last but not
least,saving energies spells the protection of natural environment.Obviously, the fewer fossil
fuels are burnt for power,the fewer toxic exhausts are released into the air.Hence,the reduction
in the use of natural resources mean the limitation of environmental pollutions.Besides,people
using less natural power can assist to maitain the natural balance.In conclusion,due to the
aforementioned reasons,I hold a firm belief that saving energy should be a prior goal in this
period of time and even in the future.
(183 w)
Topic 28:The ways to save energy
There are three effective steps to save energies.The first one is to use the energy-saving light
bulbs.In fact,electricity is now the most badly wasted energy sources.Some people have the
habit of forgetting to turn off lighting sources when not using them,which leads to the waste of
electricity .Therfore,in order to reduce the amount of lighting consumed,it is better to use
energy-saving light bulbs for example the LED as it just needs little electricity to operate
.Secondly, utilizing alternative resources can be another way.In reality, humans are facing the
risks of lacking natural resources as fossil fuels has been alarmingly overexploited.Hence,using
alternative energies ,like solar or wind power, has been appreciated.Also,if we can covert the
use of fossil fuels into the renewable ones,we can greatly protect the environment.Lastly,it is
priorly important to raise people’s awareness about saving energies.In stead of just mentioning
the ways to save energies,educating people about the importance of it can bring about much
more positive effects.To do this, government should celebrate various envents on the theme of
saving energies like ’The Earth hour ’ to encourage people to preserve power.In conclusion,to
save energy,the aforementioned steps should be widely carried out.

Topic 29: How to reduce garbage?
There are three suggestions people can follow to reduce garbage. One is to avoid single-use
items.As a matter of fact,single-use items,for example plastic bottles,styrofoam boxes, are the
biggest factors raising the trash amount.They even hazardously result in environmental
pollution.Therefore,to avoid the use of them,people should familiarize with environmentally-
friendly items like allumium can,glass bottles or paper containers as they can easily decompose
in normal condition.Secondly,it is a good idea to recycle some trash.In fact,many things like
plastic bottles or tires can be usefully used to create some DIY items like tree pots or house
decorations.Therfore,before throwing one item a way,we had better think about their ability of
recycling.It they can,we should spend a little bit of time to turn them into useful utensils.Last
but not least,it is ideal for people especially the ones keen on gardening to turn some trash into
compost.There are a lot of organic leftovers like vegetables which can be used to make tree
composts as they contain a lot of natural chemichals needed for the development of
trees..These kinds of compost are not only cheap but also environmentally friendly.In
conclusion,I have mentioned three simple ways to reduce garbage. (191 w)
Topic 30:How to reuse/save paper?
There are many ways we can do to save papers.Firstly,we should fully use both sides of the
sheet.In this way,we can take use of all the paper sheet for various aims like drawing,utilizing as
a draft.This also helps to reduce the amount of paper we waste.Secondly,it is a good idea to
recycle newspaper and megazine .One suggestion is to use pages of old papers to wrap
gifts.Another way is to take avantage of used paper to make origamis or house decorations.This
not only makes our life more creative but also reduce the waste paper.Next,it is suggested that
we should donate old megazines.There are various places that welcome megazines namely the
ones with a reception or waiting rooms like hospitals,dentists’ offices or spas.By this way,we
can ourselves conntribute to the society as well as help reduce the money spent on buying
materials .Last but not least,we had better reuse notebooks ‘til the final sheets.Rather than
throwing away empty notebooks at the end of school years,tear out the unused pages and
attach them together with some ringbinders to create a new notebook.In conclusion,I think
these aforementioned solutions can effectively help save the paper.

TOPIC 31: WHAT SHOULD WE DO TO SAVE ENERGY IN THE KITCHEN?
There are many ways we can do to save energy in the kitchem. To begin with, we should use
electricity economically. Particularly, people had better turn off all the lights before leaving the
kitchen and do not always use too many lights. Therefore, it helps reduce the monthly
electricity bill. Besdies, it is certain that fridge consumes a huge amount of energy, so we should
keep refrigerator door closed completely when stop using. Secondly, it is such a good idea for
us to take notice of taps and switches of cooking equipment. We had better bear in mind to
switch off the faucets after using them. Additionally, since unused appliances like toaster or
microwave use energy even when they are on standby and not being used we can save
electricity by getting into the habit of switching these appliances off when they are
unnecessary.Lastly,cook with suitable heat is also necessary.We shouldn’t let the heat too big
when cooking if not essential because the heat quickly releasing may results in the fast gas
running out.In summary, if we follow the above steps, I strongly believe that energy in the
kitchen can be saved considerably.
TOPIC 32: WHAT SHOULD WE DO TO HELP THE POOR IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD?
In my opinion, some effective measures should be taken in order to help the poor in our
neighborhood. First of all, it is a good idea for us to give them economic support. Sometimes,
the poor cannot even afford a meal for themselves . Hence, if we are more prosperous than
them, do not waste food, it is better to give it to those who need it the most. Additionally, we
can donate daily stuffs like clothes for people in need of a helping hand. Secondly, providing the
poor with education way to help improve their life. It goes without saying that knowledge can
help poor people to stand on their own feet. As a result, volunteers in the neighborhood can
give them free education which offer them knowledge. Then, poor people can have more
opportunities to develop in their future. Last but not least, another way is to supply them with
jobs. The reason is that if they have chances to build their careers, they can make money for
their living as well as experiencing real-life experiences and opportunities to develop their skills.
To sum up, I am sure that if we follow the above steps, we can make a contribution to help poor
residents in the neighborhood.
TOPIC 33: WHAT SHOULD WE DO TO IMPROVE OUR KNOWLEDGE OF ENGLISH?
English is becoming familiar with us in our daily life. Therefore, it is necessary to widen our
knowledge about this language by various useful ways. In the first place, a suitable dictionary is
always an indispensible school thing to those who want to learn English. The information
provided by dictionaries is undoubtedly precise and well arranged. A learner should choose one
that matches his demand and level. Besides, it is also advisable to buy some other reference
books to know more about phrasal verbs or idioms. Second, it is completely necessary to take
up one or several courses of learning English. Many people do not know how to pick up
knowledge and review effectively, so they call for some extra classes or online courses. Guided
by experienced people, we will master this language faster and more easily. In brief, although
learning English is always a hard work, if we try our best, we will definitely succeed. Therfore, I
hope by these ways, we can improve our English levels.
TOPIC 34: HOW TO IMPROVE LISTENING SKILL
Undoubtedly, one of the most difficult skills to improve through real-life is listening. Therefore I
would like to suggest some possible ways to improve our listening skill. Firstly, if you are a TV or
film fan, try watching a section without subtitles. It can be more effective if you watch again
with subtitles to check your understanding. Secondly, English songs can help.Listening to music
is a great way of quickly getting to grips with the sounds of English. Even if you don’t know what
the words mean, you’ll soon be able to recognise them. Last but not least, it is true that
practice makes perfect. Try spending as much time as possible listening to all IELTS sections that
are given by our teachers. You will be surprised how much your listening skills have improved.
Taking everything in consideration, the aforementioned ways should be applied so that people
can better their listening skills.
TOPIC 35: HOW TO IMPROVE SPEAKING SKILL
Nowadays, learning English is considered to be one of the most important thing to be a
sucessful person. And one of the most important skills when we learn English is speaking. There
are many ways to improve it.
Firstly, talking to native speakers is one of the most effective ways to improve speaking
skill. When we talk with native speakers,we will know for sure about how to pronounce and
speak like a native person. And may be, when we say something wrong, they can also fix it.
Secondly, we can use many apps on the phone as well as on our own computer. Nowadays,
many web and software developer has created many different apps with various kinds of uses
from changing intonation to training the speaking skills and improving it. Finally, we can watch
many programmes on TV to improve speaking skill. There are many interseting films on TV and I
think that it is a good idea to learn how to speak English like a native speaker through them.
In conclusion, I think that there are many ways to improve speaking English skill and we must
choose the right ways to learn and take advantage of.
TOPIC 36: HOW TO IMPROVE READING SKILL
There are some practical tips to improve English reading ability . In the first place, choose
suitable reading materials is essential. In fact, censoring before attempting to read is very
important because no one wants to put their mind in a book that they don’t like. Also, scholars
should choose books which are suitable to their levels. If a book is too easy, it might cause
boredom and if it’s too advanced, readers may feel confused or misunderstand some contents.
In the second place, setting up a timetable is a brilliant idea. It is advisable that you choose a
time when you feel relaxed and read. That’s when you can take in a great amount of
knowledge. Besides, the amount of time spent on reading is also crucial, so don’t read for too
long or too short .Finally, use as many synonyms and paraphrase as you can. As a matter of fact,
the main concept of reading tests are to better the skill of understanding and paraphrasing. So
practice it even if you’re not in a test is one of the keys to get high score. To sum up, these
above mentioned are some easy-to-apply advice on how to improve your reading skills

TOPIC 37: WHAT SHOULD WE DO TO IMPROVE OUR WRITING SKILL?
In the era of globalization, many people tend to brush up on English. Now I would like
to share some ways to improve our writing skill while we learn this interesting language. The
first vital way to enhance this skill is to read as many books as we can. In fact, most writers got
their start as studious readers, so we denifinitely need to spend a lot of time reading. Besides,
exposure to a wide range of styles as well as subjects teaches us new techniques. For instance,
reading poetry will show you how to convey emotion, while reading a journalism piece will
show you how to get to the point. Another equally effective method is to remember that
outlines are our friends.It is irrefutable that having an outline before you write is like having a
roadmap in the glove box of your car before a road trip. Before putting pen to paper, we had
better draw up an outline of what you plan to write. This will be your battle plan, and it will help
you win the war. Lastly, we should also try to reread what we have done before.As a matter of
fact, reading our old work should make us more experienced: It shows we’re improving. Also,
we can either make light edits or do a total rewrite, depending on the quality of the
piece.Therefore, once we go back to our current work, we ought to stay conscious of the
mistakes we found so that we will not repeat them. To sum up, I hope those above ways can be
useful for anyone who gets difficulty making progress in English writing.
Topic 38: Should children be allowed to use Facebook ?
These days,I hold a view that children should not be allowed to use Facebook for many
reasons. First of all, surfing Facebook overtime result in teenagers’ poor health. It has been
proven that using social media continuously for a long time can make teens suffer from short-
sightedness, headache or obesity. Additionally, overuse of Facebook is one reason for teens’
stress and pressures. Secondly,children may be negatively affected by wrong information. There
is a huge amount of unsensored information on Facebook which can adversely affect the youth.
This social media sometimes allow users to post news freely. As a result, they can provide
youngsters with unofficial information or fake news that sometimes leads to misconception.
Last but not least, privacy is one of the most worrying problems. In fact, if teenagers click into
some dangerous links on Facebook, their devices may be entered by hackers. Those ones can
steal their documents and leak out their personal information which directly threats their life.
In short, for the above reasons, I believe that using Facebook can be harmful to the young
generation, so they should not be allowed to use it.
Topic 39: How should we celebrate a day for mothers and a day for fathers in Vietnam?
I think it is necessary to celebrate Mother's Day and Father's Day in our country. The
reason is that it will be not only an occasion for children to show their love and gratitude
towards their parents but time for family gathering as well. Moreover, it is children's duty in the
view of moral tradition of our nation. It would be great if special days for Vietnamese fathers
and mothers are celebrated in early spring or fall. I believe that it's the most suitable time
because the weather is usually mild and offsprings who live apart can return home easily. To
celebrate these days, family members can gather and hold a small party with a hearty meal and
ballad music. Also, children will make greeting card and send to their parents. Besides, presents
are not the most important but indispensable . Offsprings do not have to give their parents
expensive gifts but they should involve their love and respect. In conclusion, I hope that special
days for mothers and fathers will be celebrated in Vietnam soon.

Topic 40: Advantages of solar energy
These days, many people use solar energy because of its advantages. First, solar energy
helps reduce electricity bills. Because solar system provide people with natural power, users
have just to pay for the installing and functioning cost,so no money need spending on obtaining
electricity . Moreover,users will not only save the electricity bill, but if people generate more
electricity than they use, the surplus will be exported back to the grid for another use. Second,
solar energy is an amazingly renewable energy source.In fact, It can be harnessed in all areas of
the world and is available every day.What’s more,solar power is pollution free as no carbon
emission is released during the process of generating electricity.Hence,the utility of solar power
will not do any damage to the environment. Last, solar energy can be used for diverse
purposes. It can be used to produce electricity in areas without access to the energy grid, to
distill water in regions with limited clean water supplies and to power satellites in space. Solar
energy can also be integrated into the materials used for buildings.In conclusion, I think that
solar energy has played a very important role in the new century.
(196 w)
Topic 41: Disadvantages of solar energy.
In my opinion, there exists several undeniable drawbacks associated with the use of solar
energy. Firstly, energy collected from the sun is dependent on weather to some extent. Even
though solar panels are advertised to be able to gather solar energy under any weather
circumstance, the efficiency of the whole system tends to decrease during cloudy and rainy
days. Secondly, concerns about expenses of applying and using solar power are another
problems needed to be discussed. In detail, it costs between $15,000 and $29,000 for an
average sized solar system, which is a big financial obstacle for the majority of families in our
country. This price includes installation, repairs, maintenance costs, and important accessories.
Finally, solar energy is not entirely environmentally-friendly, in other worlds, it causes
pollution. Despite the statement that environmental impacts related to solar energy systems
are far less noticeable compared to fuels or oil, transportation and installation of solar systems
are said to be one of the factors leading to the emission of greenhouse gases – the most
devastating issue threating our Earth. In conclusion, solar power, our expecting major source of
electricity in the future, still has a long way to go before it could become our most ideal choice.

Topic 42: What job do you like most? Why?
From my point of view, working as a doctor, my favorite job, stands a good chance of being the
best job for these following reasons. Firstly, being able to give a helping hand to others is one
of my life-time aim. When you are placed into a position where your task is to care for the sick,
you are helping people on some of their hardest of days. Getting a chance to put a smile on
patients’ faces makes a positive effect on not only their life but also yours. Secondly, in my
opinion, doctors are ones who gain immense respect in the society. To become a doctor,
excellent qualifications and training are required; therefore, each person doing this job
becomes a treasure to the community in which he is living. Last but not least, as a doctor, I have
no reason for being afraid of unemployment. This is due to the fact that there always exists
diseases in our life and many people need to be healed. In conclusion, up to this time, being a
doctor has been my best future career choice for three major points.

Topic 43: The importance of self-study.
In my opinion, one of the most significant keys for student to achieve a good education quality
is self-study. First of all, by studying on our own, we become more independent. Contrary to
the regular study, self-dtudying force teenagers to come up with personal solutions to each and
every problem they face, without the assistance and guidelines from teachers and parents.
Secondly, self-study gives us chances to set our own difficult level. For a person gifted with a
highly unusual ability in a given subject – be it mathematics, music, art or anything else – self-
teaching is sometimes the only option since not much in-depth knowlegde could be taught at
school. Lastly, self-study saves a lot of money. As an example, reading an inexpensive old book
is also considered a way to study by yourself. The lower amount of money our parents have to
spend on our education, the less financial pressures they have to cope with. To say in a word, as
a result of its effectiveness, I hold a firm belief that self-study plays an important part in every
learning progress.

Topic 44: What do you like to do in your free time ?
In my leisure time, reading book is my favorite choice. I begin to read books when I was 7 years
old and I find this activity beneficial. First and foremost, reading book is the most comfortable
and healthy way to entertain. According to researchers, after 6 minutes of reading a book, you
will find 68% of satisfaction, which is actually better than listening to music or having a cup of
tea. Secondly, books lead to the development in my imagination. As an example, a splendid
scene from a film on TV might to be one’s taste, but perhaps not to everyone’s; otherwise, a
scene of words from a book allows all of us imagine whatever we want it to be. Last but not
least, it is generally accepted that books are a source of trustworthy original databases.
Regarding the amount of misleading information on mass media, it is both noticeable and
valuable that details from almost every book are verified thoroughly before being published. In
conclusion, for me, spending just 15 minutes a day reading a book is more worthwhile than
other kinds of leisure activities.

Topic 45: Name some films on UFOs you have ever seen. Talk about the existence of UFOs. Do
you believe in the existence of UFOs? Why / Why not?
From a very young age, I have seen countless films with scenes of UFOs on TV, for example, The
UFO incident, Infinity War, Endgame. In my opinion, UFOs truly exist for two main reasons.
Firstly, scientists have already predicted the appearance of hundreds of potentially habitable
planets. Investigating the atmosphere surrounding exoplanets, we have detected some kinds of
substances found in Earth’s atmosphere, which could not be a confirmation that there is life out
there – but still a strong indication that our theory is possible. Secondly, it is popular belief that
there exists different messages sent by aliens on varying places on Earth. For example, a
considerable number of citizens all over the world interpret pyramids and crop circles in Egypt
as greetings from alien visitors, or even a kind of code revealing the true origin of our race. In
return for these mysteries, radio messages and pictures carrying basic information about
humanity and Earth have been delivered to stars in the Milky Way. In conclusion, from what has
been discussed above, I hold a firm belief in the existence of UFOs as well as the life on other
planets.

Topic 46: Write a paragraph about how the world will be different to today's world. What
brings about the change? How you feel about it?
In my opinion, in the upcoming decades, our society will make a considerable change in several
aspects which used to be invariable. Firstly, revolution in human beings’ socializing will be
brought thanks to the development of telecommunication. For example, it might be possible to
communicate with friends living in other parts of the world in a blink of an eye using telepathy.
Secondly, science is likely to give a helping hand to life extension. In detail, professors have
predicted that in the near future, humans will be provided with medical products that keep us
not only immortal but also ageless. Lastly, the gender-related roles are expected to be
completely equal because of the modernised way of thinking. In the year of 2030, we hope to
see more men wearing fashionable dresses on the streets and women who feel free to express
their political viewpoints. In conclusion, these are the three changes that are most likely to take
place in the near future, and in my opinion, all of them would benefit our society in the most
surprising and magneficient way.

Topic 47: What should we do to reduce teen stress and pressure?
The most effective personal stress - management plan for teenagers is divided into three parts.
First, address students’ problems and try basic solutions to it if possible. Causes of pressure
among the young are commonly due to parents expectations, study results, etc. Call for help as
soon as we find anything strange and do not be depressed if cannot find a solution, but move to
tip two. The next tip is to give pleasure to yourself at times. You can never entirely change the
situation which makes you stressed out, however, try to reassure that no matter which result it
leads to, you have tried your best. At the same time, know your limitations and when you
should give up to call it a day. Finally, the most important part of this plan is to get away from
negative feelings. To make this practical, you should be aware of consequences of them and
have someone to support and prevent you from those feelings. All in all, as teenagers, we need
to remember thatone of the best ways to be a happy and successful student is to manage stress
well.

Topic 48: Why should we organize a teen support group in our school?
As a result of teenagers’ considerable number of daily problems, there should be a group of
people to help them solve these issues - this is what we call a teen support group. Firstly, teen
support group would give a helping hand to studying obstacles. For example, members of the
group are expected to give instructions to difficult examinations as well as share tips of
learning. Furthermore, as they could appear in every class, it does not take a lot of time for a
teenager to ask for explanations after each lesson. Secondly, joining a group provides students
with opportunities to develop life skills. In detail, in a group, communicating and cooperating
with each other is inevitable. Moreover, at least two students or more have to be in charge of
the group, which results in the development of leadership ability and working resposibilities.
Lastly, the group is somewhere students can share their feelings and stories. Teenagers’ stress
is now of great concern; therefore, having a person help them to cope with pressures is
necessary. However, parents could hardly be a more preferable choice than same-aged friends
in the group, particularly when students spend most of their time at school. In conclusion, I
opine that organising a teen support group in school is undeniably a good idea and should be
encouraged.

Topic 49: Should we preserve many good pastimes and traditions which seem to be dying
out?
From my point of view, the preservation of our national pastimes and traditions is significant
without any doubt. Firstly, it is generally accepted that tradition provides us with a sense of
comfort and belonging. To be more precise, customs and rituals serve as reminders of events
that have shaped our nation as well as our lives; therefore, they shows the young generation
that they not alone, but rather, a part of something bigger, a part of the whole Vietnamese
family. Secondly, pastimes and traditions are considered religious ways to express our
thankfulness for the contribution our ancestors made to the country. As an example,
celebrating Tran Temple Festival annually in Nam Dinh is a time for Vietnamese people to look
over the history and achievements of the Tran Dynasty, therefore, a feeling of pride and honor
to not only the dynasty but also all our previous generations could emerge in all of us. In
conclusion, I hold a firm belief that as a result of the important meaning of good pastimes and
traditions, measures ought to be taken to preserve them.

years.
It is undeniable that for the last decade, our young generation has gained countless benefits
from the changes of Vietnam school system. Firstly, there being an increase in the number of
teenagers going to school. In detail, children in remote areas are provided with opportunities
to get access to education thanks to the governmental free tuition fees and scholarships.
Secondly, modern factilities have been applied in the majority of schools. For example, unlike
10 years ago, now it is no longer uncommon to catch sight of air-conditioners and projectors in
a class. What’s more, with the help of these facilities, both the teaching and the learning are far
more effective and exciting. Lastly, students in the year of 2020 gain not only theoretical but
also practical knowledge. As an instance, school extra activities, which leads to an
improvement in students’ life skills, are being stimulated. Therefore, modern Vietnamese
teenagers are said to be both flexible and adaptable. In conclusion, I opine that students’
changing experiences over the past few years are the result of our developing educational
system; and as they are proven to be advantageous, more encouragement and support from
the community is essential.

Topic 52:In your opinion,what job will be the most popular in the next 10 years ?
From my point of view, with astonishing booms in technology, computer programmer will be
the most favorable in ten years’ time. First of all, in the future, there will be a lot of robots
doing a lot of work for humans, which requires high qualified programmers to instruct them. A
computer programmer will be the one who is responsible for all the productivity of robots.

awareness of protecting the living atmosphere.Action should be taken,for example,
propagandising the messages of saving the environment on posters in crowded places.Also,it

release into the air numerous toxic fumes doing severe harm to the urban residents.For this
reason,it is urgent that industrial areas be relocated in remote areas,much better,in the areas
with lots of trees to reduce the exhaust in the urban air.Last but not least,using public
transport also assists to alleviate the air pollution.Public vehicles have been demonstrated to
not only contain a great number of people but also release less carbon emission into the air
than private ones.Therefore,it is the government who should bring in some policies to
encourage citizens to make use of public transport and limit their utility of private
transportation.In conclusion, if we follow the aformentioned steps, air pollution would be

Topic 54:How can teenagers deal with stress and pressure effectively?
There are three typical steps to help teenagers to cope with stress and pressure.Firstly,parents
should not put too much hope on their offsprings’studies.In fact,children are likely to be in fear
of being given excessive hope from their parents since they sometimes fail to come up to it.This
results in the optimistic thoughts and feelings of being a burden of teenagers.Thus,parents had
better not put too much hope on their children,instead they can give them encouragement to
make them feel comfortable with their studies. Secondly,It is the young themselves who need
to arrange their days balancedly.Besides the learning time,the young can spend time on other
activities like meditating,doing yoga or cycling,which assists them to release all the stress and

socialization.Therefore,they will become open-minded to leave all their stress and pressure
behind.In conclusion,I hold a belief that the aforementioned suggestions can assist to diminish
stress and pressure among the young.

directly affect the space travellers’safety.Moreover,space travel results in the shortage of

conclude, owing to these above reasons, technology has definitely made our life more
comfortable.

In this day and age, parks are gradually becoming an irreplaceable part in the city since
they bring about plentiful advantages. Firstly, park is a place for people to relax and reduce
stress. These days, life seems to be very stressful as citizens are all in a race against time in
order to keep up with the fast pace of the urban area. Thus, park is an ideal place for people to
spend time doing various activities such as playing sports, doing exercises and going for a walk.
Secondly, park assists in improving the scenery of the city. Undoubtedly, no one can accept a
place with only high buildings and modern facilities. Instead of that, park not only helps people

neighbourhood residents to interact with each other and meet new people. They’re also great
spaces for events and for people to engage in recreational activities. This allows people to

Nowadays, in order to make Viet Nam more appealing to tourists, there are some changes
that ought to be made.
First of all, Internet propaganda campaigns ought to be mounted. In fact, since
technology is developing rapidly, we can make use of the Internet to attract visitors by taking
photos or recording videos of magnificient landscapes and attractions in Viet Nam, then post
them on social media such as Facebook or Instagram. By that way, Viet Nam may become more
well – known to people all over the world.
Secondly, residents had better conserve and create more natural scenery in the locality.
It is totally certain that a country having wonderful natural beauty seems to be an ideal tourist
destination for travellers. Thus, the Vietnamese need to plant more trees and flowers as well as
keeping water bodies namely lakes clean , and building more national parks in local areas.
Finally, we should improve the infrastructure in our homeland. It is essential that
facilities like shopping malls, amusement parks, and sport centres be built. Irrefutably, visitors
love travelling to countries which have both natural beauty and entertainment facilities.
To conclude, with the above – mentioned ways, I hold a firm belief that we can make
more foreign tourists come to Viet Nam.
Topic 59: How important is it to preserve traditional festivals in Viet Nam?
In the modern society, it is essential to maintian long-standing festivals due to these
following reasons. First of all, customary festivals play a vital role in preserving the identity of a

chatting, playing games or using it without positive purposes. As a consequence, some of them
have no time for studying and get bad academic performances. Secondly, the use of social webs
with a high frequency can result in some mental health problems. As a matter of fact, young
people using those can suffer from some bad diseases such as: depression, obesity, blood
pressure…Last but not least, spending time on social media can decrease teens’ communicating

others. In a nutshell, youngsters ought to use less mobile phone so as to avoid these drawbacks
I have mentioned above.

Topic 63 : Write a paragraph about the three skills you think a student in the 21 st century
needs to acquire.

It is undeniable that a successful 21st century learner has to obtain a number of


important skills

Firstly, working in groups is able to help learneres with numerous social skills. For
example, giving out opinions without showing anger or leadership skill especially. To work
effectively in a team requires every member to be extremely patient and able to tackle with
conflicts. Therefore, people can easily improve their working skills thanks to joining a group.

Secondly, having good teamwork knowledge may increase the effectiveness of the
problems which are being discussed about. According to a recent research, a difficult exercise
when being solved by a student only gets a lower score than that of students in a particular
team. The reason for this can be explained by the amount of one person’s knowledge and the
knowledge of more than one which is usually wider.

Finally, one of the leading benefits of acquiring this skill is that it gives people a chance
to show themselves and their own opinions about a typical issue. So as to contribute to the
team’s success, each of us has to give out our personal perspective and explain it in front of
other people.

In conclusion, with a view to becoming a successful generation in 21 st century, every


learner had better develop their own abilities and potentials.

Topic 64+66 : Two of the most practical resources of alternative energy for Viet Nam and
explain why

These days, the lack of energy sources in Viet Nam. To deal with this problem ,two most
practically alternative sources hydro electricity and solar pơer should be considered.

Firstly, hydro electric power is an ideal replacement. This energy source is renewable
and abundant. Vietnamese people can collect water almost everywhere because in Vietam, the
number of rivers, lakes are large. And it is also environmentally friendly and safe. Water doesn’t
harm the environment, but it helps residents to clear the streets, and the appliances.
Moreover, no accident ever is caused by hydro electric power.

Secondly, solar energy is a plentiful alternative source. The plus point of this renewable
energy is that it is economical. Although the cost of installation is very high, people won’t have
to spend much money on electric bills. Furthermore, this energy is also environmentally-
friendly. The energy from the sun is abundant and healthy for peole. And the environment will
be green and clean once solar power is widely used.

TOPIC 65 : What are the negative results of developing tourism ?

Nowadays, developing tourism has resulted in several problems.

Firstly, environmental damage is one issue. Irrefutably, because of lack of people’s


awareness, an excessive amount of littering occours in most tourist destinations. Moreover, the
demands for improvements in frastructure of visitors have contributed to the rising rate of
dreforestation which not only causes soil erosion and air pollution but also destroys natural
habitats of animals.

Secondly, developments in tourism also increase crime. In fact, a pool of tourists gives
thieves and shoplifters opportunities to commit social evils. Additionally, since the
infrastructure in most places of interest is being widened, many illegal places namely bars are
built, which boosts trafficking such as drug trafficking.

Finally,tourism may trigger the toll on the local culture. Obiviously, today, many
craftsmen have a tendancy to produce products by quantity, not by quality. As a result, this may
degrate the artistic and cultural values of traditional products.

In short, it is crucial that authorities and local agencies had better find solutions to the
problems tourism brings about.

Topic 67: “Foreign visitors bring both benefits and drawbacks to our country” say something
to support the saying. TRÙNG TOPIC 79
In my opinion, an increasing number of foreign visitors result in both positive and negative
impacts on our country. On the one hand, international travelers leads to two major good
points. The first point involved is our developing national economy. Vietnam service industry,
which includes transportation, accomodation and goods supply, nowadays could gain profits
from both local and foreign visitors. The second point is the global connections. This feature not
only brings business and collaborations in the long term but also puts forward cross-cultural
awareness for both locals and tourists. On the other hand, this situation can be a source of
problems, especially if it is not managed well. First, it may cause environmental damage. For
example, when huge numbers of people visit an area, they inevitably burden the transportation
system and therefore contribute to pollution locally and globally. Second, the
commercialization of culture undermines the soul of a destination. It is wise to say that wearing
offensive costumes and putting on acts for foreigners in return for money should never be
ecouraged. All in all, together with encouraging the growing of non-native travelers for its
benefits, we had better find out solutions to its drawbacks.

Topic 68: What club do you want to be founded in your school?


In my opinion, an English club should be founded in my school for the following reasons. Firstly,
this club is expected to result in an admosphere suitable for improving English skills. Joining in
the club, students are trained to feel confident when speaking in front of their peers.
Furthermore, teenagers are given chances to freely express and exchange their own viewpoints
if they communicate with ones at the same age. Secondly, an English club would benefit a
student’s social connections and relationships. In detail, an English club is supposed to be a
place full of members with a strong feeling for studying and discovering English; consequently,
we are enabled to find friends with the same language hobbies or even dreams with us here.
Lastly, taking part in an English club is one of the most relaxing methods to learn this language.
To be specific, a club tends to provide students with extracurricular events, which are often
joyful and practical. What’s more, as these events are commonly organised in the absence of
teachers, teenagers would feel less under pressure when showing their abilities. In conclusion, I
think the foundation of an English club in my school is ideal.

Topic 69: Talk about one thing that your school should change to have better learning
condition.
To have a better learning condition in our school, I opine that the most recommended change is
to install advanced air-conditioning in every class. Firstly, this results from the fact that unstable
temperatures, whether it is too hot or to cold, may affect students more seriously then people
thought. In detail, prolonged exposure to low or high temperature everyday is said to worsen
anybody’s physical condition greatly. Since students are forced to wear uniforms whose
qualities are not good enough to deal with hard weather, their conditions can even get far more
terrible. Secondly, air-conditioners are considered the best method to solve this situation. Not
only do they have the most considerable effect on cooling the atmosphere in the classroom,
but they also makes no contribution to noise pollution, unlike regular electricity fans. What’s
more, a school with a high-cost change in the learning environment – applying air-conditioners,
tends to have a good repuation in its caring towards students. In conclusion, for the mentioned
reasons I have discussed, air-conditioners installation should be the next change in the learning
condition of our school.

sport. (TRÙNG TOPIC 1)
My favourite sport is football. It has been my favourite sport since I was a child. When I was
small, I used to go to the field near my house and play football all day long. Nowadays, football
is called “the king of sports” as most people around the world enjoy it due to these following
reasons. Firstly, it helps people improve their health fast. According to researchers, exercise
and sport triggers chemicals in the brain that can make you feel happier and relaxed. Football, a
team sport, provides a chance to unwind and take part in an activity that improves your fitness.
If you play sports outside, you can benefit from fresh air which is said to promote a good sleep.
Secondly, it can create new connections. Football brings together a mixture of people from
different communities, backgrounds, religions and beliefs. It can also offer a new way to meet
others that you may not interact with day to day. As a result, you can make new friends. And
who knows, playing a football might even open new career and business opportunities for you.

Topic 71: What do you often do in your free time? Say about it. (TRÙNG 44)
In my leisure time, reading book is my favorite choice. I begin to read books when I was 7 years
old and I find this activity beneficial. First and foremost, reading book is the most comfortable
and healthy way to entertain. According to researchers, after 6 minutes of reading a book, you
will find 68% of satisfaction, which is actually better than listening to music or having a cup of
tea. Secondly, books lead to the development in my imagination. As an example, a splendid
scene from a film on TV might to be one’s taste, but perhaps not to everyone’s; otherwise, a
scene of words from a book allows all of us imagine whatever we want it to be. Last but not
least, it is generally accepted that books are a source of trustworthy original databases.
Regarding the amount of misleading information on mass media, it is both noticeable and
valuable that details from almost every book are verified thoroughly before being published. In
conclusion, for me, spending just 15 minutes a day reading a book is more worthwhile than
other kinds of leisure activities.

Topic 72: What messages will you draw for the younger generations?
Living in the 21st century, as a student, I want to pass some of my personal messages to the
younger generations. My first letter is sent for the protection of our nature. Regarding the
present state of the environment, children ought to try to change their lifestyle step by step.
First, starting gradually cutting down the amount of electricity used, using as little plastic as
possible and then finding out ways to clean up the entire environment. Otherwise, the future
earth is likely to be destroyed. The second point I would love to remind the young is always
aiming to contribute to the community. For example, from such a young age, teenagers should
do their utmost in their study, pay affention in class, look for reference materials for self-study,
etc. Then, as a citizen in the modern era, being up-to-date with the changing world is essential
supposing that they do not want to be left behind. In conclusion, I hold a firm belief that these
above messages should be sent to the younger generations – the future masters of the world.

Topic 73: How do school students benefit from outdoor activities?
It is generally accepted that outdoor activities are remarkably beneficial to students. Firstly,
extracurricular activities give a helping to students when coping with pressure at school. In
detail, the majority of students state that lessons at school are gradually getting more tiring
owing to teenagers’ hectic learning schedule both inside and outside school. At the same time,
outdoor activities provide students with a relaxing period of time. Secondly, outdoor events
improve teenagers’ physical health. As an example, participating in events of physical training
controls a child’s body weight and help him to be more flexible. Regarding the age when
students spend their whole day indoors, this aspect of extra activities is more worth being
regarded than ever. Finally, students are given chances to train life skills while participating in
these activities. Confidence, solidarity, decision-making skills and social manners are usually
listed as some major instances. All of these abilities are said to play an important influence over
students’ future career and life. All in all, I strongly believe that outdoor activities play a
significant role in school curriculum because of their advantages.

Topic 74: What are the reasons for the increase in the number of people going on holiday all
over the country?
From my point of view, the trend towards travelling all over our country in recent years could
be attributed to a number of reasons. Firstly, the main reason why people nowadays show
more of their interest in travelling is that they have larger budgets to spend on their vacations.
In detail, families’ disposable incomes are now by far higher than they were in the past, thanks
to global economic development. As a consequence, families are more willing to give pleasure
to themselves after a long hard period of working and learning. Secondly, the development of
social media serve as a catalyst ('kætəlist chất xúc tác) for the immense need for travelling. To
be more specific, it is common that travellers often take and upload photos of the places they
visit showing how happy they are to social platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. The
popularity of these photos is considered as the best promotion that encourages people who
saw them to travel and experience. In conclusion, I hold a firm belief that travelling is becoming
increasingly popular in our nowaday society for these aforementioned reasons.

Topic 75: The consumers in our country are consuming electricity faster than it can be
produced. What should we do to reduce the consumption of electricity? TRÙNG TOPIC 28
The rapid increase in the demand for energy consumption leads to the importance of following
several steps to reduce it. Firstly, starting our plan to save eletricity by adjusting our day-to-day
behaviors. For example, all light bulbs in our rooms should be turned off when we go out or in
unnecessary situations, or we could avoid wasting water when taking a bath, shut the kitchen
stove when stop cooking and so on. Secondly, it is a good idea to gradually replace all of our
normal household furniture with energy-saving one. As what has been reviewed, just by
installing energy-saving bulbs everywhere in our house, there exists a remarkable decrease in
the amount of money we have to pay every month. Lastly, the key to solve a problem is always
the right awareness of each and every individual. For instance, students should be taught
about the way our world would change with the lack of electricity. Furthermore, rules together
with fines should be brought in strictly to prevent people from misusing electricity in public
destinations. In conclusion, I opine that if these three measures are taken methodically, there
would be a reduction in the consumption of electricity in the world.

Topic 76: Being a student in grade 9, what should you do when not having to go to school
during Covid-19 epidemic?
For a student, particularly one of the 9th grade, weeks at home to prevent the spread of Corona
virus are at a premium and therefore should be spent in effect. The first thing to be done is
understanding the true meaning of postponing a school year. It is a miserable fact that the
majority of teenagers consider the time off a perfect long holiday; therefore, they waste their
whole day on shopping and hanging out with friends. The second thing is to take good care of
our health. Since unfortunately being infected with Covid-19 can easily cripple our years of
studying efforts, remember that without health, a student could never achieve his aim. The last
thing is undeniably to promote self-studying method. For example, as an alternative to calling
friends for gossiping, it is an ideal choice to call them for an online studying group. Another
instance is that we ought to make good use of the Internet which stores a countless number of
mock tests for 9th grade students. In conclusion, three points discussed above are major things
that a student of ninth grade should do when not having to go to school during Covid-19
epidemic.

Topic 77: Many people think that teachers should be allowed to contact students through
social media. To what extent, do you agree or disagree with this statement?
I completely support the viewpoint that it is proper for a teacher to contact with students
through the Internet. Firstly, online communication intensifies the understanding between
teenagers and teachers. In detail, by means of social media, all of us - including both educators
and learners, possess the ability to share with others our little daily moments, hobbies and
personal ways of thinking. Secondly, educational benefits are another benefit of this situation.
To give an example, social media apps help teachers to easily provide students with online
sources of supplementary exercises or learning tips. Furthermore, virtual discussions encourage
questions from shy students who are afraid of communicating in person. Lastly, one point that
cannot be missed is the convenience. For a student having a problem with friends, he may be
able to get advice right away by messaging his teacher. Simultaneously, for a teacher, he can
inform the whole class on a call supposing he unexpectedly has to be absent. All in all, far from
being a prohibited thing, online interacting between teachers and students should be
encouraged as a result of its advantageous points.

Topic 79: Advantages and disadvantages of tourism.
79.1: Advantages and disadvantages.
Introduction: In my opinion, the developing tourism results in both positive and negative
impacts on our country.
Conclusion: All in all, together with encouraging the growing of tourism for its benefits, all of us
should be responsible for searching solutions to its problems.
79.2: Advantages of tourism.
It is a fact that tourism in our country is full of pros and cons, nevertheless, in my opinion, the
good outweighs the bad. To begin with, tourism makes a significant contribution to the
development of the national economy. The first point involved is undeniably the service
industry which includes transportation, accomodation and goods supply. The second point is
the offer of job to everyone at every age: tour guides, hotel receptionists, traveling organisers
and so on. Second, the reputation of an area could be promoted thanks to tourism. In detail,
tourism gives the locality a chance to show itself off and raise its profile in the world, which is
remarkably noticeable when it comes to attractions of traditional products or natural wonders.
Finally, tourism is said to considerably uphold international connections. This feature brings
business and cultural collaborations in the long term. Furthermore, it puts forward cross-
cultural awareness for both locals and tourists, as well as builds bridges of understanding
between different nations. All in all, we can state that it is worth encouraging the growing of
tourism regarding its benefits.

79.3: Disadvantages of tourism.
It is generally accepted that tourism in Vietnam is likely to be a source of problems, especially if
it is not managed well. To begin with, tourism tends to result in environmental damage. For
example, when huge numbers of people visit an area, they inevitably burden the transportation
system and therefore contribute to pollution locally and globally. Additionally, numerous
tourists could accidentally make considerably negative impacts on the environment just by
popular traveling activities such as fishing. Secondly, the commercialization of culture, a feature
of developing tourism, can undermine the soul of a destination. It is wise to say that wearing
offensive costumes and putting on acts for the tourists in return for money should be forbidden
in areas that have a rich cultural heritage. Finally, in some regions in Vietnam, tourism has
already created an economic dependence. This aspect is fine in good times, but it can leave not
only these regions but also the whole country vulnerable to economic ruin in the long run. To
conclude, I opine that the government should be responsible for searching solutions to these
problems of tourism in Vietnam. (186 words)
Topic 80: Disadvantages of tourism and solutions
* Disadvantages:
It is undeniable that tourism plays a significant role in the development of a country.
However, it can also bring about a number of drawbacks. First of all, the more tourism
develops, the more polluted the areas become. When tourists come to a beauty spot, they
sometimes litter on the ground. Additionally, the development of tourism leads to the
establishments of industrial factories which dump waste into water bodies and release smoke
into the air at times. Secondly, it is the fact that tourism is one of the reasons for the increase in
social crimes. Robbers and shoplifters can take advantage of local people’s and travellers’
carelessness to conduct illegal actions. Also, the growth of tourism can unintentionally
facilitates illegal business such as drug trading or prostitution. Finally, there are numerous
negative effects caused by tourist industry to the local culture. Today, many visitors with high
demands for local stocks lead to traditional craftsmen producing products by quantity, not by
quality. As a result, the artistic and cultural values of these products may be degraded. In short,
for the above reasons, I think that numerous minus points result from tourism.
* Solutions:
With a view to surmounting the negative consequemces of tourism, many possible
solutions have been suggested. The first measure is to put garbage bins on streets, especially on
those which are crowded. This way helps heighten travellers’ awareness, and, thus, the
problem of littering may recede. Another feasible solution is that local agencies at places of
interest should impose penalties against who commit crime. Both heavy financial punishments
and imprisonment ought to be applied. As a result not only the safety of local people and
tourists is inhanced but create a wholesome environment to develop tourism. Lastly, local
authorities had better set up seminars to discuss ways to preserve and promote values of
tourist destinations. Particularly, the status of propaganda about local culltures should be
improved positively. In brief, if we follow the above steps, the problems of tourism can be
handled.
Topic 81: How will the increasing involvement of women in public life affect society ?
Women’s increasing participation in all aspects of society has led to the following
impacts. To begin with, the more important roles of females helps sustain gender equality in
the society. It is a matter of fact, in the past, women used to be housewives only playing the
part of looking after their families, whereas nowadays, jobs which were said to be intended for
man namely governmental officials are shared with women. Therefore, without gender
equality, many female – related crimes like sexual harassment cannot be fairly judged.
Secondly, it is said that an increase in the number of women engaged in social positions
supports social developments. Nowadays, more women take part in higher academic grades
which is one evidence for the significant involvement of women in the development of a
civilized society. Many talented women appointed to important positions will bring about
reformation in the community. In conclusion, with the above mentioned ideas, I hold a firm
belief that females are gradually become more involved in the public life.
Topic 82: What changes in the society will we see in ten years’time ?
In ten years’time,people have witnessed enormous changes in their society
In the first place, the most fascinating change is the increasing involvement of women in the
public life. It is a fact that a huge number of women participate in university, get higher
education for better jobs. Consequently, they are no longer content with staying at home
playing the role of a housewife. This dramatic change greatly affect the socio–economic picture
of the countries. Besides, the financial burden of the male in the family will also be reduced. As
a result, they will learn to share domestic chores with their wives and children will get more
affection as well as care from their father.
In the second place, the roles of technological inventions, especially robots has changed
the life in many ways. It is irrefutable that robotsgradually hold the positions of human beings
and take part in human activities constantly. Hence, the unemployment rate increases
remarkably, which may make more and more people have to live on the dole. This also affects
severely to the country’s economy.
In conclusion, as time goes by, the society will face certain changes.
Topic 83: Tips for learning English well
There are many ways we can do to improve E ability. First of all, English leaners ought to
make use of all opportunites allowing them to speak to a foreigner. This way can not only assist
learners in improving their confidence but also perfect their speaking skills by imitating the
native accent. Consequently, they can make rapid progress in learning this language. Another
equally vital approach is spending more time watching English films. It is notable that when
watching English movies, students can get exposure to a reservoir of structures and vocabulary.
Morever, they can know more about idioms and slangs frequently used in English daily
conversations, which are hardly taught at school. Last but not least, investing in good study
materials is absolutely considered important to English learners. Undoubtedly, a good
dictionary for translations will support them in looking up new words precisely. Furthermore,
audio CDs or DVDs are relatively necessary for bettering their English speaking and listening
skills.
In a nutshell, I strongly believe that these measures can help students learn English more
efficiently and successfully
Topic 84 : What should we do to prepare for a trip to the space?
To travel into the space, we will have to make a careful plan for this exciting trip.
First of all, the most essential thing is a perfect health. As a matter of fact, once we get
on trip, we will be in a different world. Consequently, we must be in excellent physical
condition. We had better do excercise or aerobics everyday in order to keep fit and train health.
Moreover, we also need to get a letter from the doctor showing that we have a good health.
Secondly, we are required to learn about various spaceship systems and know the basic
information about the place we will arrive. Besides, training to operate spacecraft systems will
help us deal with emergencies as well as become familiar with crew activities in stimulated
microgravity.
In conclusion, with the afore–mentined tips, I believe that we can prepare well for our
interesting trip into the outer-space.
Topic 85 : A place you want to visit after covid 19 epidemic and explain why?
If humans successfully survive the coronavirus pandemic, I would like to visit Thinh Long
Beach in Nam Dinh Province because of the following reasons. Firstly, it is a safe destination for
me to travel to after covid 19 epidemic. It is the fact that Nam Dinh Province is not affected so
much by the epidemic. Moreover, since the number of tourists coming to it is often small, the
safety is guaranteed. Secondly, Thinh Long Beach is an excellent tourist destination to rest and
relax in Nam Dinh Province, especially after a long time staying at home. I really enjoy walking
along the sandbank or swimming in the sea with pristine water and strong waves. Also, one
natural attractions of Thinh Long Beach I love most is the fabulous magnificent landscape of
sunrise. There are various types of service such as sea bathing, sauna and eating, and the
quality of hotels is pretty good with reasonable prices. In brief, Thinh Long Beach is a must-see
destination that visitors should come once corona virus no longer exists.
Topic 86 : What should we do to protect ourselves and our family members from deadly
coronavirus ?
In this period of Covid-19 epidemic,it is necessary to know how to protect ourselves and
our family members. First and foremost, it is extremely essential for all family members to be
aware of this deadly virus.. watch the news on televion and read newspaper everyday so as to
up-to-date with the situations of the virus. Additionally, people can learn more about the
spread speed or the disease on social media. Second , hygiene should be highly taken notice of.
All family members had better bear in mind that washing their hands frenquently with soap and
water, especially before and after meals. The reason is that when they wash their hands the
virus which can be transfered to their bodies will be eliminated. Finally, one of the most crucial
things that people have to remember is keeping the social distancing. Maintaining a distance
between oneself and other people can avoid people from infecting corona virus in case the
opposite people cough or sneeze. Moreover, so as to minimize the risk of infection,people
ought to wear masks when they go out. In short, I strongly believe that by following the above
suggestions, people can avoid the risk of infecting the deadly coronavirus.
Topic 87: Advantages and disadvantages of robots
It is true to say that robots are both advantageous and disadvantageous.
On the one hand, robots are recognized to be beneficial. Firstly, this invention gives
people support in their work. In reality, robots can work continuously without resting, and bring
about high productivity together with successful results. Also, there are some things that
human beings cannot manage but robots can. Secondly, these machines provide mankind with
entertainment. For instance, robot pets are regarded as amiable friends of some children. With
the help of them, people can cope with pressure and depression, as well as have a more
optimistic outlook on life.
On the other hand, robots can lead to many problems. The first minus point is that
robots may completely replace humans in some aspects in the future. Because machines
produce greater efficiencies than humanity, it is unavoidable that employees might be replaced
with robots someday. Thus, the rate of unemployment will increase and people will be more
reliable on machines. The second drawback involves high costs. It is a fact that to produce a
robot, a large amount of money, time and effort must be expended. Moreover, their programs
need updating to keep up with world trends, which is also an arduous process.
To conclude, for the above reasons, I believe that robots bring people both pros and
cons
Topic 88: Advantages and disadvantages of having a long life
* Advantages:
Having a long life expectancy can be advantageous and sometimes even wonderful due
to the following reasons. Firstly, longevity means one can stay with his family and enjoy his life
for long. Undeniably, people spend most of their life working and taking care of their families.
Hence, it is common sense that they deserve a healthy and peaceful old age after the amount
of paid work. Moreover, that people live longer provides an opportunity for their children to
return the care they have received from parents. Indeed, longevity helps promote harmonious
relationship among family memebers. Secondly, having a long life allows people to contribute
more to the world with their wisdom and talents. It is the fact that with age comes wisdom. As

Thus, they can make greater achievements and come up with more practical ideas. At the same
time, they are also the prominent example for the young to learn from. In conclusion, the afore
mentioned reasons are why numerous people wish to have a long lifetime.
* Disadvantages:
It is undeniable that having a long life expectancy is disadvantageous. Firstly, old people can
becoms a burden to their family. Irrefutably, it will cost a family a large amount of money to
support lives of the elderly since they may suffer from diseases which require their relatives to
have good economic conditions to pay for treatment, medicines and healthcare services.
Besides, choosing a family member to take care of seniors may result in conflicts among
offsprings. Secondly, the rise in the number of elderly people may put pressure on the whole
society. In fact, this will make a contribution to the overpopulation, which can affect people’s
living standards adversely. Furthermore, the old increasing also means that hospitals are
overloaded in terms of labour force and facilities. Finally, those who have longevity also cause
problems for themselves. It is an apparent fact that when becoming old, people have to
undergo pains of diseases such as dementia and backache. Also, they might experience
miserable feelings while facing the death of their descendants. To conclude, leading a long life
brings people many drawbacks.

Firstly, propaganda campaigns ought to be launched in regions. This way makes a considerable
contribution to heightening the awareness of this matter of local residents. Therefore, they will
take practical actions such as restricting their use of products made from endangered species.
Secondly, national parks and wildlife sanctuaries should be erected to shelter animals which are
being threatened. In reality, those places provide high-quality healthcare services and
professional staff for endangered species. As a result, not only will they have a pleasant habitat
but reproduction will also increase. Finally, it is essential that governments impose punishments
against illegal hunting and animal trafficking. Heavy financial penalties and imprisonment had
better be applied as soon as possible. More importantly, the police and officials need to be prim
and proper. To conclude, if the aforementioned measures are taken soon, there will be more
endangered animals saved.

since it has undergone a great number of changes. Firstly, females not only play a vital part in
domestic tasks but also involve to financial and economic concern of the family. It is an

more women going to work, financial burdens of men will be reduced. Secondly, women has
been given a higher position in the modern society. In our country, the idea of equality of men
and women is widely supported . Women now involve more in social organizations in order to
affirm their talents and achievements to the community.Besides, the more frequent
participation of women in governmental associations has a positive effect on the balance of
civic rights and duties. In short, for the mentioned reasons, it cannot be deny that the roles of

Topic 92: Advantages of studying online.


In my opinion, online classes are beneficial due to three major points. Firstly, flexible learning
schedules and destinations are provided by this brand new kind of education. In a traditional
classroom setting, meeting times and places are permanent, which forces students to work
their schedules. Most people choosing online learning tend to have other commitments, and

effortless to network with peers across nations and even other continents, resulting in valuable
opportunities in terms of collaboration with individuals of different communities. At the same

costs; and furthermore, the majority of required course materials, such as textbooks, are
available online at no cost. In conclusion, I am of the opinion that online education is worth our
