In recent years, there has been an ongoing trend towards sports becoming a Iuerative industry for athletes and many companies have made ther involvement in this industry. From my perspective this development is bath positive and negative for the advancement of sport, The most noticeable merit for sports from huge investments is the Superb perOrMAne given. Its quite rue that Featuring in branded product endorsements isa popular source of income for those at ther peak performance. This financial motivation can enable sportspeople to exert ther bes 1o succeed in their chosen field by scoring many more goals and demonstrating thet sills GORSIERIY (mt cich nhd qn) in each match. Examples of this ean include CristianoRonaldo, who has signed hundreds of contracts and received handsome Salary (well-paid), If most or all professional sportsmen are financially motivated, sports in general can benefit from more fascinating matches with the display of amazing skills for the public to five a rd 0rd) However, I contend that the immense involvement of a wide range of enterprises in this industry could fake #toll/on (cause harm to) the advancement of sports. Firstly, by selecting only individuals demonstrating the most outstanding skills, businesses are likely to create afinflated porifal (chan dung phng dai) of those athletes and tnint@ntionally (v6 tin Sea high expectation among the public. Should (io nai cducken lot 1) these profesionals happen t0 (+ tink 10) show a slight decline in their performance, sport fans would not Hesitate(k) (cn chi) to voise ther frustration and disapproval, even boysot (dy chay) those talents, affecting the overall quality of sports. Secondly, marketing in sport has become associated with winning, and companies wish tobe idetified with sucess, This has replaced the image of sport as simple recreation and fun, in which taking part was more important than a win-a-al costs attitude, In conclusion, despite the benefit related to performance quality, would argue that the dominance’ of money and HEBIEEEH in sport has deterred the overall development of sports, making this phenomenon far more negative. E2: Nowadays, young people admire sports stars though they often do not set a good example. Do you think this isa positive or negative development? Although top spots athletes are often poor role models, they gain the admiration of millions of youngsters. This is overall a negative trend for the young generation and society despite one single benefit it may bring about. I think this trend could be profitable only if the young disregard (bat chap, k dé y) the negative and focus on the positive aspects of sports stars’ lives. Ronaldo, a world-class central forward (tién dao tam cf thé gidi), for example, is infamous (tai tiéng) for his extreme individualism (chi nghta ed nhan ewe doan), but is still a role model of diligence and determination (se chm ch vi qu td) for all he efforts he has exerted in fotbal training. Many adolescents who are Ronaldo's fans have overlooked his undesirable personal traits and trained themselves hard to achieve extraordinary results in their lives. In this way, the young may still benefit from sports stars! valuable life lesons. However, I contend that this is generally an adverse tend because withthe majority of youngsters, it may lead to unpleasant consequences. This is because the young could be immature and themirng and imitating these stars may result ina wide rmge of adverse effects and thus isa negative issue in today’s society may imitate al the actions of the stars, irrespective of (despite) whether these ations are beneficial or not, What these young people may copy may range feom a materialist lifestyle 2 sng vat chdi), an individualistic way of living to more problematic behaviours suchas sexism, racism and discrimination. These outcomes are negative not only for the juveniles (adolescents) themselves but also for soriety as a whole in the fur. Allthe existing data provides a concrete foundation that eventhough youngsters may learn some useful life experiences fiom top athletes who do not set good examples, the proclivity of ad VOCABULARY: Profitable (adj): c6 lgifch, gin nghta véi ‘beneficial’, ‘advantageous’ Individualism (n)~individualistictadje) chi nghia cd nha, Diligence (n) sy chim chi, gin nghia v6i “hardwork’ “industriousness” (to) Exert efforts in V-ing / to V: B6 nhiéu cong sie dé Lam gi ‘Undesirable (adj): khéng mong mudn, t6i t§, gay hai, géin nghia véi ‘negative’, ‘unpleasant’ Immature (adj): thiu trudmg thanh, khOng suy nghT thdu déo khi hanh dong Imitate (v): bit chiée, gin nghia véi ‘mimic’, copy’ ‘Materialistic (adj): mang tinh vat chéit, thudc chu nghia vat chét Proctivity (a): nu husng, thug 1a xu hung téu eve E3: Some people think tha itis more beneficial to take part in sports which are played in teams, like football, while other people think that taking part in individual sports is better, ike (ennis or swimming. Discuss both view and give your opinion People hold diferent opinions about which kind of sports they should opt for, While some have a preference for individual sports, | personally think that playing team sports is clearly more beneficial. (néu rd quan diém) On the one hand, itis undeniable that plaving sports individually has its own advantages. Firstly, enthusiasts of this kind of game would enjoy a more flexible and self-directed timetable without relying on other players, which is particularly favorable for people who have ahectie schedule. This is totally opposite for a football player who has to spend time waiting until all of his teammates gather on the pitch. Secondly, individual sports create an environment in ‘which the player has to motivate himself in order to reach his goals without being dependent on others. By this way, the player can fee a sense of purpose in their rereation, and a sense of personal fulfilment could also come alongside forOn the other hand, 1 am more in favor of team sports because of its wider range of advantages, (Quan diém) The first one is that those who get involved in team sports have more opportunites to meet new people and make friends with oxher sharing common interest, contributing to expanding ther social circle, Another merit i the improvement of interpersonal skills suchas teamwork ability and leadership competency. Take football asa wellrounded example, In order to score a goal, the entre team has to closely cooperate with one another. What is more, every team needs a captain who can devise a strategy and motivate his teammates towards a triumph, Therefore, a person's leadership potential can be reached if he plays asa team leader In conclusion, I would choose to play team spors in preference to individual ons since they bring more advantages regarding larger social network and soft skill enhancement. I believe that these plus points can be accompanied by even a eater sense of satisfaction asthe joy i shared and multiplied among team members. Ed: Some people think that governments should ban dangerous sports. Others, however, think that everyone should have freedom to do any sporting activities they choose, Diseuss both view and give your own opinion? The media commonly provide a bamage of news about dangerous sports, because the deaths and injuries associated with them often make for spectacular headlines. As a result, some people have argued that all extreme sports should be banned; however, I would argue that such a policy would be SUEGE@ISROBURIGH to the real risks involved, Those in favour of prohibiting people from taking part in hazardous sports fend to focus on the risk clement. Even when individuals may be physically and mentally prepared to participate in extreme sport activities, and even when they have all the right 8B, the dangers are EVEHBRGSHL. To take an example, few sports are as challenging and HSUBHEWH danger as BASE jumping, Participants hurl themselves off lif, and few escape without sufering severe bruising or acute ‘abdominal pains (dau phan bung) which normally last for several days. In addition, although sports equipment rarely ‘malfunctions, this may sill happen andthe consequences may be fatal. Sue trai @iteomes not only affect the individual victims, but also leave mental seas which their families then have to live with forthe rest of their ives. However, I support the view of those who contend that participation in extreme sports must be a matter Of personal ‘hoiee. Firstly, overcoming physical challenges may be aspingboard for positive personal transformation, Ie may make a person stronger and more determined, an the experience may bea life-changing one. Another point to note related to an ‘ethical aspect which dictates that a person should have the freedom to pursue the challenges which they set themselves, even though this may involve a level of risk which others might find unacceptable In conclusion, while acknowledging th real risks, I would defind the right of any individual to take part inthe extreme sport of ther choice USEFUL VOCABULARY. = a barrage of sth: a great numberof complaints, criticisms, or questions suddenly directed st someone = To be out ofall proportion to (collocation): qu manh mét eéch king cin thi xi by dt vige (hai qua) = Gear (n) b@ trang thigt bj khi choi mét mén thé thao ~ Malfunction (v) gp tre tc khi hot dong = Tragi outcome (collocation): hu qua i = Mental scars (collocation): anh hrémg lau dai vé tam ly = To be a springboard for something (collocation) = (to be) conducive to sth: dao digu kign cho cai gi dé dién ra = Strenuous (a); t6n rt nhitu cong ste va seb ging IL TOPIC: EDUCATION EL: Students should be taught academic knowledge so that they can pass exams, and skills such as cooking or dressing should not be taught. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Some people hold a belief that schools shouldbe a place where students study academic subjects to pass examinations rather than eam skills such as dressing and cookery. In my opinion, despite the significance of academic study and exams, students should also be taught fundamental ife skills (On the one hand, studving academic knowledge is vital for students in many ways, IDEA Itt, examination results are essential for students’ academic record. With good results, they will have an advantage inthe national high school exams in ‘which their academic performance after many yeas of study is considered, IDEA2-Second, academic subjects equip students with fundamental knovledge tha wil be used in tertiary education.
