Speaking Part 2: Discussion
Phần tiêu đề “Speaking Part 2: Discussion”You have found out that your younger brother has a girlfriend. What would you do? Options: don’t intervene, deal with it by yourself, or tell your parents.
Bài mẫu:
Phần tiêu đề “Bài mẫu:”I would choose to deal with it by myself. I think this is the best way to help my younger brother.
The first reason is that my brother would trust me more than our parents. If I talk to him gently, he will listen to me and share his feelings. I can give him useful advice about how to balance his study and his relationship. This is very important for a young student.
The second reason is that I am his older sibling, so I understand him well. I was also young once, so I know how he feels. I can help him make good decisions without putting too much pressure on him.
I would not choose to tell our parents because they might overreact and punish my brother. Then he would lose trust in the family and not share anything anymore. As for not intervening, it is also not a good choice because my brother is still young. He needs someone to guide him so that his studies are not affected.
In short, I will talk to my brother myself because this is the most caring and effective way.
Speaking Part 3: Topic Development (nói 2 phút)
Phần tiêu đề “Speaking Part 3: Topic Development (nói 2 phút)”Keeping a pet teaches children many interesting things: love for animals, learn responsibility, care for others, learn about biological features.
Bài mẫu:
Phần tiêu đề “Bài mẫu:”Today, I would like to talk about why keeping a pet teaches children many interesting things. I strongly agree with this idea, and I have several reasons.
Firstly, keeping a pet helps children develop love for animals. When children feed and play with their pets every day, they learn to be kind to animals. They understand that animals also have feelings and need love. This helps children become more caring people.
Secondly, having a pet teaches children responsibility. Children have to feed the pet, give it water, and clean its place every day. If they forget, the pet will be hungry or sick. Thanks to this, children learn that they must take care of someone who depends on them.
Thirdly, caring for a pet helps children learn to care for others. When the pet is sick, children feel worried and want to help. This feeling of empathy can also be used with their friends and family in real life.
Finally, children can learn about biological features by watching their pets. They can see how animals eat, sleep, and grow. This is a natural way to learn about science and nature.
In conclusion, I believe that keeping a pet is a wonderful way for children to learn many important life lessons.
Writing Task 1: Informal Letter
Phần tiêu đề “Writing Task 1: Informal Letter”Your foreign friend is going to Nha Trang. Write a letter about: how to travel there, what to do, and why you recommend Nha Trang.
Bài mẫu:
Phần tiêu đề “Bài mẫu:”Dear Tom,
Thank you for your letter! I’m so glad to hear that you are coming to Vietnam. You asked me about Nha Trang, so let me tell you about this wonderful city.
First of all, the best way to get to Nha Trang is by plane. You can fly from Ho Chi Minh City to Cam Ranh Airport, and it only takes about one hour. From the airport, you can take a taxi to the city center. It is about 30 minutes and very easy.
When you are in Nha Trang, there are many things to do. You should go swimming at the beautiful beach. The water is very clean and blue. I also recommend visiting Vinpearl Land — it is a big amusement park on an island. Don’t forget to try the local seafood — it is very fresh and cheap!
The reason I recommend Nha Trang is that it has beautiful beaches, warm weather all year, and the people are very friendly. Moreover, it is not expensive, so you can enjoy many things without spending too much money.
I’m sure you will have a great time there! Write back soon and tell me your travel plan.
Love, Minh
Writing Task 2: Essay — Give your opinion
Phần tiêu đề “Writing Task 2: Essay — Give your opinion”Some people say computers have made life easier and more convenient. Others say computers have made life more complex and stressful. Give your opinion.
Bài mẫu:
Phần tiêu đề “Bài mẫu:”Nowadays, computers are used in almost every part of our lives. Some people believe that computers make life easier, while others think they make life more stressful. In this essay, I will discuss both views and give my opinion.
On the one hand, computers have made life much more convenient. Firstly, we can use computers to communicate with people around the world through email and video calls. We don’t need to travel far just to talk to someone. Secondly, computers help us find information very quickly. For example, students can use Google to search for anything in just a few seconds. Moreover, we can do online shopping from home, which saves a lot of time.
On the other hand, some people think computers make life more complex and stressful. They have to learn new software and technology all the time, which is difficult for older people. In addition, many people spend too much time on social media, which reduces their productivity. Sitting in front of a computer for many hours also causes health problems like eye strain and back pain.
In my opinion, I believe that computers have more advantages than disadvantages. Computers have made our lives much easier, but we need to use them wisely. If we control our screen time and use computers for useful purposes, they will continue to benefit our lives.
