of the questions from 11 to 17.
Vietnam boasts a rich cultural heritage that spans thousands of years, with diverse influences from
its indigenous roots, neighboring countries, and colonial history. However, the current status of heritage
preservation in Vietnam is a topic of concern. Rapid urbanization, economic development, and
modernization have posed significant challenges to the preservation and protection of Vietnam’s cultural
treasures.
One issue faced by Vietnam is the encroachment of urban development on historical sites and
traditional communities. As cities expand and modern infrastructure is built, historical buildings and
neighborhoods often face the threat of demolition or alteration. This poses a risk to the physical integrity
and authenticity of Vietnam’s heritage. Efforts are being made to strike a balance between development
and preservation, with initiatives to restore and adapt historic structures for modern use, ensuring their
cultural significance is not lost.
Another challenge is the preservation of intangible heritage, such as traditional crafts, music, and
rituals. With the globalization of culture and changing societal dynamics, there is a risk of these
traditions fading away. Recognizing this, the Vietnamese government and local communities have
initiated programs to promote and safeguard intangible heritage. Cultural festivals, craft workshops, and
educational initiatives are being organized to raise awareness and engage younger generations in the
importance of preserving their cultural heritage.
Furthermore, tourism has both positive and negative impacts on heritage preservation in Vietnam.
While tourism can provide economic opportunities and support conservation efforts, it can also lead to
over-commercialization and cultural commodification. Striking a balance between sustainable tourism
development and heritage protection is crucial. The Vietnamese government has implemented
regulations to manage tourism activities and promote responsible travel practices to ensure that heritage
sites are respected and preserved for future generations.
In conclusion, the current status of heritage preservation in Vietnam is a complex and evolving
challenge. With growing awareness of the importance of cultural heritage, efforts are being made to
protect and promote Vietnam’s rich heritage. However, it requires a delicate balance between
development and preservation, as well as active community participation and responsible tourism
practices, to ensure that Vietnam’s cultural treasures continue to thrive and inspire future generations.

Preserving our heritage is a crucial task that involves safeguarding our cultural history and identity.
It means protecting both the physical objects and the intangible aspects of our past that have been passed
down to us. Things like historical sites, artifacts, traditions, and languages are all part of our heritage
and deserve to be taken care of.
Nations should be in an attempt to preserve their heritage because heritage allows future generations
to learn from and appreciate the accomplishments and struggles of those who came before us. It helps
us understand where we come from and how our societies have developed over time. When we preserve
our heritage, we also feel a strong sense of belonging, as it connects us to our shared history and cultural
practices. In addition, preserving heritage promotes cultural diversity and encourages communication
between different cultures. It helps us appreciate the uniqueness of each culture and promotes respect
and understanding among people. By celebrating and protecting our diverse heritage, we create
opportunities for cultural exchange, which brings people together and helps build a more harmonious
and inclusive society.
Preserving heritage is not just a responsibility; it is an investment in our collective memory, identity,
and the future well-being of generations to come. So let's cherish and protect our heritage, ensuring that
it continues to enrich and inspire us for years to come.

When it comes to education options for school-leavers, there are several paths to consider. One
common option is pursuing higher education at a university or college. This path typically involves
obtaining a bachelor’s degree in a chosen field of study, which can provide a solid foundation for various
career opportunities. Universities and colleges offer a wide range of academic programs, allowing
school-leavers to explore their interests and specialize in areas that align with their career aspirations.
Another option for school-leavers is vocational education and training (VET) programs. VET
emphasizes providing practical skills and knowledge that directly apply to specific industries or trades.
These programs offer hands-on training, preparing individuals for careers in fields such as healthcare,
information technology, construction, hospitality, and automotive industries. VET programs often
include apprenticeships or internships, allowing students to gain valuable work experience while
studying.
For those who prefer a more experiential approach, apprenticeships can be a valuable education
option. Apprenticeships combine on-the-job training with classroom instruction, allowing school-
leavers to earn while they learn. They provide a unique opportunity to gain practical skills and industry-
specific knowledge directly from professionals in the field. Apprenticeships are available in a variety of
industries, such as construction, culinary arts, electrical work, and healthcare.
Ultimately, the choice of education option for school-leavers depends on individual interests, goals,
and learning preferences. Whether it’s pursuing higher education at a university, enrolling in a vocational
program, or embarking on an apprenticeship, each path offers distinct advantages and can lead to
rewarding career paths. It's important for school-leavers to explore and evaluate these options carefully
to make an informed decision that aligns with their aspirations and sets them on a path to success.

One option for school leavers is to pursue vocational education and training (VET) programs. VET
offers practical and skill-based training that prepares individuals for specific careers or industries. These
programs provide hands-on experience and often lead to recognized qualifications or certifications.
By choosing VET, school-leavers will have the opportunity to gain valuable skills and knowledge
that are directly applicable to the workforce. They can learn practical trades such as plumbing, carpentry,
or automotive mechanics, or specialize in areas like hospitality, healthcare, or information technology.
VET programs focus on building practical skills, problem-solving abilities, and industry-specific
knowledge, making graduates highly employable in their chosen fields.
Another advantage of VET programs is the flexibility they offer. Many VET courses are available
at different levels, from certificates to diplomas, allowing school-leavers to choose a program that suits
their interests and career goals. Furthermore, VET programs often incorporate work placements or
internships, providing students with real-world experience and networking opportunities within their
chosen industry.
Choosing VET as an option after finishing school can be a conducive pathway for those who prefer
a more hands-on and practical approach to learning. It offers a direct route to acquiring specific skills,
increasing employability, and opening doors to various career opportunities. Whether someone wants to
enter the workforce immediately or pursue further education in the future, VET can provide a solid
foundation for success.

The age at which teenagers should become independent is a topic of debate and can vary depending
on cultural norms and individual circumstances. While there is no set age that universally marks the
transition to independence, it is generally recognized that the teenage years are a crucial period for
developing autonomy and taking on increasing responsibility.
During adolescence, teenagers undergo significant physical, emotional, and cognitive changes.
They begin to form their own identities, explore their interests, and develop a sense of self. This period
provides an opportunity for teenagers to gradually take on more independence and learn essential life
skills that will prepare them for adulthood. However, it is important to note that independence should be
a gradual process and not something expected to happen overnight. Teenagers still require guidance,
support, and supervision from parents, caregivers, and trusted adults. The transition to independence
should be based on individual maturity, readiness, and the ability to handle increasing responsibilities.
Factors such as cultural expectations, family dynamics, and the level of trust and communication within
the family also play a role in determining when teenagers should become more independent. Open and
honest communication between parents and teenagers is crucial in navigating this transition, as it allows
for discussions about expectations, boundaries, and the gradual relinquishing of parental control.
It is important to recognize that the journey towards independence is not solely determined by age,
but also by the readiness and capabilities of the teenager. Some teenagers may display greater maturity
and responsibility at an earlier age, while others may require more time and support to develop these
skills. Parental guidance and assessment of the teenager’s readiness are vital in determining when they
should gradually assume more independence. It is essential to strike a balance between fostering
independence and ensuring the teenager’s well-being and safety. By providing opportunities for growth,
encouraging responsible decision-making, and maintaining a supportive environment, parents can help
teenagers navigate the path to independence at a pace that suits their individual development.

Independence is a fundamental aspect of personal growth and self-determination. It refers to the
ability to make decisions, take actions, and assume responsibility for one’s own life without relying
excessively on others. Independence encompasses both physical and emotional autonomy, allowing
individuals to navigate life on their own terms and pursue their goals and aspirations.
In terms of physical independence, it involves being self-sufficient and capable of meeting one's
basic needs without relying on external assistance. This includes tasks such as managing finances, taking
care of daily chores, and being able to provide for oneself. Physical independence empowers individuals
to live independently, make their own choices, and take control of their lives. Emotional independence,
on the other hand, relates to having a strong sense of self and being able to regulate one's emotions and
well-being without depending on others for validation or support. It involves cultivating self-confidence,
resilience, and the ability to make decisions based on personal values and beliefs. Emotional
independence allows individuals to maintain healthy relationships, set boundaries, and assert their needs
and desires.
While independence is highly valued, it is important to acknowledge that no one is entirely
independent. We are social beings who thrive on connections and interdependence with others.
Interactions and collaborations with family, friends, and communities contribute to our growth and well-
being. However, striking a balance between independence and interdependence is crucial. It allows
individuals to maintain their autonomy and make decisions that align with their values, while also
fostering healthy relationships and recognizing the importance of mutual support.

Homelessness is a complex and pervasive issue that affects individuals and communities
worldwide. It refers to the condition of not having a stable, permanent place to live. Homelessness can
arise from a variety of factors, including poverty, lack of affordable housing, mental health issues,
substance abuse, and systemic inequality. People experiencing homelessness often face significant
challenges, including limited access to basic necessities, healthcare, employment opportunities, and
social support networks. The impact of homelessness extends beyond individuals themselves and affects
society as a whole. Homeless individuals often face stigma, discrimination, and social isolation, making
it difficult for them to reintegrate into mainstream society. Homelessness also places a burden on public
resources, such as emergency shelters, healthcare systems, and law enforcement, as they strive to
address the immediate needs and provide assistance to those without homes.
Efforts to address homelessness involve a multifaceted approach that combines short-term and long-
term solutions. Immediate interventions include providing emergency shelters, transitional housing, and
access to basic services like food, healthcare, and mental health support. However, long-term solutions
focus on addressing the root causes of homelessness, such as affordable housing initiatives, poverty
alleviation measures, and comprehensive support programs that address mental health, addiction, and
employment. Moreover, addressing homelessness requires collaboration and coordination among
governments, nonprofit organizations, and communities. Effective strategies involve a combination of
policy changes, community engagement, and resource allocation to provide stable housing options,
supportive services, and opportunities for homeless individuals to rebuild their lives. By recognizing the
complex factors contributing to homelessness and implementing comprehensive solutions, societies can
strive to reduce homelessness, alleviate suffering, and promote social inclusion for all individuals.

Living in a big city can offer many advantages, such as access to diverse cultures, job opportunities,
and vibrant social scenes. However, it also comes with its fair share of social problems. One prevalent
issue is homelessness. In big cities, the high cost of housing and limited affordable options make it
challenging for some individuals and families to secure a stable place to live. This leads to a significant
homeless population, often struggling to meet their basic needs and facing difficulties in finding
employment or accessing social services. Another social problem in big cities is the increased crime
rates. The density of population and anonymity can contribute to higher levels of criminal activity. Theft,
vandalism, and assaults are more common in urban areas, causing concerns for residents’ safety and
well-being. Additionally, social inequality and poverty are prevalent in big cities. While these areas offer
many opportunities, they also widen the gap between the rich and the poor. The stark contrast in living
conditions and access to resources can create social divisions and lead to feelings of marginalization
among certain communities.
Addressing these social problems requires a collective effort from both the government and the
community. Implementing affordable housing initiatives, providing support services for the homeless,
and promoting inclusive policies can help alleviate the issue of homelessness. Similarly, investing in
community policing, enhancing public safety measures, and implementing programs aimed at reducing
poverty and inequality can contribute to a safer and more equitable city. It is essential for residents to
come together, support local organizations, and actively participate in initiatives that tackle these social
problems. By working collaboratively, big cities can strive towards creating a more inclusive and
thriving environment for all.

Preserving the ecosystem is crucial for the well-being of our planet and future generations. The
ecosystem refers to the interconnected network of living organisms and their physical environment. It
encompasses various ecosystems, such as forests, oceans, grasslands, and wetlands, each playing a vital
role in maintaining the balance of nature. Preserving the ecosystem is essential because it supports
biodiversity, regulates climate, provides valuable resources, and offers countless benefits to humans and
other species.
Biodiversity, or the variety of life on Earth, is a fundamental component of a healthy ecosystem.
Each species, from plants to animals, plays a unique role in maintaining the ecosystem’s stability and
functionality. By preserving diverse habitats and protecting endangered species, we can ensure the
preservation of biodiversity. Furthermore, ecosystems contribute to climate regulation by absorbing
carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. Forests, for example, act as carbon
sinks and help mitigate climate change. Preserving these natural habitats is crucial in combating climate
change and its associated impacts.
Moreover, preserving the ecosystem also ensures the availability of valuable resources that sustain
human life. Ecosystems provide essential services such as clean air, clean water, fertile soil, and natural
resources like timber, food, and medicine. By practicing sustainable and responsible use of these
resources, we can ensure their availability for future generations. Additionally, a healthy ecosystem
offers recreational and aesthetic benefits, providing opportunities for outdoor activities, relaxation, and
connection with nature.
Preserving the ecosystem requires collective efforts from individuals, communities, governments,
and organizations. It involves adopting sustainable practices, reducing pollution and waste, conserving
energy and water, supporting conservation initiatives, and promoting environmental education. By
working together, we can contribute to the preservation of the ecosystem, protect our planet's natural
resources, and ensure a sustainable and thriving future for all.

protected areas serve as havens for a wide variety of plant and animal species, allowing them to thrive
and maintain their ecological balance. Examples of such protected areas include Cuc Phuong National
Park, Cat Tien National Park, and Ha Long Bay, which are not only important for preserving biodiversity
but also allure tourists from around the world. Additionally, Vietnam has taken steps to address
environmental challenges and promote sustainable practices. The government has implemented policies
and regulations to control deforestation, protect endangered species, and promote sustainable fishing
practices. There are also ongoing efforts to raise awareness about the importance of preserving the
ecosystem among the general public and local communities. Vietnam’s commitment to preserving the
diversity of its ecosystem extends beyond its borders. The country actively participates in international
conservation initiatives and cooperates with other nations to combat climate change and protect
vulnerable ecosystems. This collaboration is crucial in addressing global environmental issues and
ensuring the long-term sustainability of the planet.

As school-leavers embark on the journey beyond high school, they are presented with a plethora of
education options that pave the way for their future. These options cater to their diverse interests,
aspirations, and career goals, ensuring that each individual can find a path that suits them best.
One of the most conventional routes is pursuing higher education at a university or college. Here,
students can enroll in degree programs spanning various fields such as science, humanities, engineering,
arts, and more. The university experience goes beyond academics, offering a vibrant campus life that
fosters personal growth, critical thinking, and networking opportunities. For those seeking specialized
knowledge and a structured academic environment, universities remain a fabulous choice.
In recent years, vocational education and training (VET) have gained increasing popularity among
school-leavers. VET programs offer practical, hands-on learning that equips students with specific skills
for a particular trade or industry. These courses are designed to bridge the gap between theoretical
knowledge and real-world application, preparing graduates for immediate entry into the workforce. With
a focus on employability and industry-relevant training, VET programs are an appealing option for those
keen to pursue a specific career path without the extended duration of a traditional university degree.
For those looking to explore the world and immerse themselves in different cultures, gap years have
become an appealing option. During this time, school-leavers can engage in volunteer work, travel, or
pursue personal interests outside of academia. Gap years offer a chance for self-discovery,
independence, and a broader perspective on life before diving into higher education or career
commitments.
