ĐỀ 1: Describe a TV programme which you enjoyed

I’m going to talk about “Who wants to be a millionaire”, one of my favorite TV shows
ever.

As far as I can remember, it was originally a UK TV Game Show, and it made its first
debut in Vietnam around 10 years ago.

This was kind of a quiz show in which contestants have to go through a set of 15
questions with increasing difficulty. The first 5 questions are pretty silly really, and they
always give me and my family a good laugh. Contestants are given 4 lifelines to aid them
with difficult questions, and most of them are usually used up when the contestant
reaches around question 7 or 8. The entire show is a sea of knowledge. Many questions
from different fields are asked, ranging from trivial things like ingredients needed to
make cookies to academic stuff like quantum physics and archeology.

You know, I’m quite a curious man, so back when I was a high school kid, I hardly
missed an episode. When the Internet became available in Vietnam, I started to watch the
UK and US version as well, and knowledge acquired from those shows were really
helpful to me in many of my high school knowledge quizzes.

ĐỀ 2: Describe a piece of software you use often

Software technology has advanced a lot and nowadays, we can see so many softwares
being used in our daily life. There are thousands of softwares which are important for us
especially in a business and study but here I would like to talk about the software which
is very important for any computer user. It is called MS office. It is default software in
every PC.

This software can do so many things which are very difficult to do with pen and paper.
We can change the colour, size and style of the text. We can choose many languages to
type in. We can prepare beautifully designed papers and insert images as well as
drawings. We can send and share the documents prepared in this software. We can also
take print outs of documents. Moreover we can save & store our documents &
presentations in the cloud and we can access it from anywhere. In schools, this software
can help us in making assignments and presentations in a very short time.

Now new versions of MS office have become very flexible. We can access it from mobile
phones as well as from web.

The best thing about this software is that it can do difficult tasks in seconds. For example
if you are making merit list of students in a school, then by few clicks, it automatically
arranges the names of students in ascending order of their marks. So it saves time as well
as efforts.

I use this software for making presentations in my study and also to improve my typing
skills. So this is the software that I use often.
