This is the only place we have to live and we should want to treat it with care and respect People should protect the environment by not throwing rubbish, using less fossil fuels, planting more trees and save energy It is the responsibility of school to teach children to protect the nature and environment because students spend most of their youth time at school They have been taught a lot of things since they were small So it really affects their mind set about protecting the envỉronment 14/ “There are many benefits of studying music or learning to play a musical instrument” “Có nhiều lợi ích việc học nhạc học chơi nhạc cụ” Present your view with clear arguments and specific, real-life examples to support your view After finishing your speech, answer the following questions: Do you think that pop/ rock stars can have bad influence on the young people?
