I’m personally believed that consumers should use own mind. Advertisements generate awareness about various products and are essential to everyone. 5 .A Company Has Announced That It Wishes to Build a Large Factory Near Your Community. Discuss the Advantages and Disadvantages of This New Influence on Your Community. Do You Support or Oppose the Factory? Explain Your Position. Factory gathers resources-workers and capital. There are advantages and disadvantages of building a large factory near my community. A large factory may strengthen economy of the community. On the other hand, a large factory may create environmental problems. first of all factory creates new employment opportunities and increases economical development of the community. The first pro of building a factory is that it can create new employment opportunities for my community. For example, some people may get constructor jobs while others may work in a ready-made factory. Also, building a factory can increase the community’s economy. More money might go to the community budget. As a result, new schools, hospitals and children organizations may be built. Building a large factory may make people’s life better in my community. Environmental problems are the cons of having a large factory nearby. Having a factory can be the first reason of increasing of air pollution. Because of that people may have different respiratory illnesses. Person who already has respiratory disease could gain chronic illness that is not cured. A large factory might provoke acid rains. Acid rains may increase the acidity of soil and water and as a result harmed crops and trees. Also acid rains erode buildings. Hence, people need extra money to repair their homes. As for me, I support the building the factory. The factory may create new employment opportunities and may increase the economy of the community. New schools, hospitals and children organizations may be built. I think that building the factory will change people’s life in a better way television is for entertainment not for education to what extend do you agree or disagree with this statement television is for entertainment not for education to what extend do you agree or disagree with this statement some people saith that tv is only use for entertaiment . but I don't think so , i think tv is not only use for entertaiment but also good for education, with me i have some statement . firstly the entertaining purpose of TV is apparent, and it is an important purpose, too. After working hard, a person needs to rest, They can listen to music, watch game-shows and other pleasure activities. This way, the stress that has strained viewers can be blown out more easily. Not only helping people get out of stress, TV also makes them have new ideas, and thoughts. The colors and sound that they see in many entertainment programs on the screen can somehow affect the brain, motivate it to work in diverse ways, hence the creation of art, songs or even science. The entertaining programs on TV can also connect people all around the world, especially through interactive programs. People can share their opinions, their thoughts about certain global issues, therefore, not only the understanding among countries is improved but also the problems at the time can be solved more easily. Through TV, several songs that bear peace messages, such as “Heal the world”,can spread to many people, evoking in them the wish for peace and humanity. secondly. well as entertain On the whole television is a big source of education The various educational programmes not only impart education but also entertain the students.There are various types of quiz-programmes shown on the T.V. which provide extra knowledge to the students . Even the weak students learn easily the lesson which otherwise seem to them difficult in classroom. To sum up the television is the most wonderful invention of mankind. It is a blessing in disguise. One can hear as well as watch the entertaiment programmes and It has made education easy and efficient . I think TV should be seen as a device that can both educate and entertain viewers, 3. Some people prefer to live in a small town. Others prefer to live in a big city. Which would you prefer some people prefer to live in a small town . other prefer to live in a big city. Living in big cities and small towns, both have their own advantages and disadvantages. Although it is bit difficult to say that whether living in big city is of more advantage than living in small towns or vice-versa, from my personal perspective I prefer living in a big city. The city life is fast paced, and facilities are more easily available. Any new products which come in markets, ranging from electronic items to even a simple pen, are instantly available in the city as soon as the products are launched. There are wide variety of shops and thus wide variety of choices to choose from. Apart from the availability of products, the standard of living is much higher in cities when compared to towns. Too many job opportunities and wide range of products available depending on each ones budget has led to the improvement in standard of living. The city grows each day ,with some or the other new project coming up everyday. In cities we find large number of entertainment multiplexes, shopping malls, educational institutions, hospitals, restaurants,etc growing in number each day. The standard of education is also very high in the city .The easy availability of technology and modern teaching methods may also be one of the reason for the cities, we meet wide variety of people coming from various places. As a result of which we get to meet different people, share opinions, get to know different culture, get to taste different varieties of food and the list goes on. Thus enabling our over all personality development, which helps us to lead a better society life. I do agree that living in cities has got some disadvantages such as Pollution, traffic jams and increased cost of living. However when compared to advantages, the disadvantages are negligible. Thus I believe living in city is more beneficial than in a small town. 11; Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Universities should give the same amount of money to their students' sports activities as they give to their university libraries. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion. Most of people hypothesize that students go to colleges to study by their brain, not body, so they often disregard lots of outdoor activities. From my perspective, the universities should spend the same amount of money to their students' sports activities as they give to the libraries because sport gives students rewarding entertainment, healthiness and good cooperation. First and foremost, playing sports is a useful recreation for students after stressful studying in class. Students can choose various kinds of sport such as playing basketball, go swimming and doing aerobic. Instead of going to the bar or disco in which students can be easily addicted to alcohols and drugs, they can go to sports club or the gymnasium to do exercise and learn new skills. For example, I used to engage in basketball club in my college despite not being skillful at playing it. After some time studying diligently from other members, I was chosen to play for an important tournament. Secondly, through sport, students can develop both physically and mentally. Playing tennis or badminton in each morning or after school time can improve students' health. Having a good heath is extremely indispensable to absorb knowledge, so they can learn effectively and effortlessly. Furthermore, going to sports club give students a high opportunities to socialize and make friends with lots of new and kind people that they have never met. Talking with other friends with different majors and habits can also enhance their communication and behavior skill. Last but not least, considerable investment in sports activities can set up a united association among students. Some team games like football, basketball or baseball request high team spirit and community solidarity. Thus, all the members must respect the cohesion and cooperate flexibly during the game. Through the sport, students not only stretch their muscles but also understand how vital the unity is. In a nutshell, the advantages of sports activities which I mentioned above are undeniable and people should change their mind about the necessity of sports activities. Universities have better spend money on improving sports facilities and organizing clubs besides the investment in academic materials in order that students can develop comprehensively. 14; Some people believe that university students should be required to attend classes. Others believe that going to classes should be optional for students. Should university students be required to attend classes? Some people believe that attending classes should be optional for students, but really disagree with them about it. In do not understand how university students can expect to learn much knowledge if thy do not attend classes. Although, self-study is a good way to acquire knowledge, I am of the opinion that no matter they like or not, university students should be required to attend classes because of following reasons. In the first place, University students can acquire much knowledge when they attend classes. The professor can teach students a lot of things that are not written in the books. Books normal offer just concentrated knowledge. Therefore, the professor will clarify and expand knowledge; teach students the way of thinking, and the like. This expansion the students can not learn if they learn by themselves through the books. Sometimes, the professor can invite the guest speakers come to talk about some issues. They can have in common with students their experiences. Thus, by usually going to classes, university students can learn much knowledge that does not cover in textbook. In the second place, attending classes, university students can learn more skills for their future life. In classes, the professor may require students to do teamwork. That means some students have to work together. As a result, they can learn some skills through their group assignment. They can learn how to deal with other people that their opinions are not the same. They have to their preparation to persuade others. They have to explain your ideas. This is communication skills. These skills are very important for students when they go to work in the future. Moreover, going to classes can train university students to be more responsible and hard-working. Usually going to classes and keeping the schedule of classes require the effort of university students. That means they must learn their previous lessons at home and prepare for the next lesson. They have to arrange their time between attending classes and self-studying. If they want to be the best in their classes, they have to be responsible and hard-working and attending classes can train university students. In conclusion, I think the university should require students to attend classes because the students can have much knowledge than they learn by themselves, learn more skills especial communication and team-work skill for their career in the future, and they will be responsible and hard-working. These are some advantages when students attend classes. Topic 19. Should governments spend more money on improving roads and highways, or should governments spend more money on improving public transportation (buses, trains, subways)? Why? Governments should definitely spend more money on improving all forms of public transportation. These include buses, subways and trains. This is the best way to preserve natural resources and reduce pollution. As a planet, we're dealing with a finite amount of natural resources. Once they're gone, they can't be replaced. They can't fill our need for oil and gasoline forever. But we seem to forget that and consume them at an incredible rate. In wealthier countries, some families have two or three cars. As soon as teenagers get their driver's licenses, they're given cars so their parents won't have to drive them places. Public transportation hasn't been sufficiently developed. Because of this, suburban areas surrounding cities have been allowed to sprawl more and more widely. This means that people can't even go to the store without having to hop into the car. Everything is too far away from where they live. If there were better and more frequent public transportation, people would be able to give up their cars for local driving. As a result of all the cars being driven, we're dealing with terrible pollution problems. In big cities, there are days during the summer when the elderly and people with respiratory problems are advised not to leave the house. Ten years ago this was unheard of! Now it's the norm. Public transportation would cut down considerably on air pollution. Public transportation also encourages a sense of community. People who travel to work together all the time get to know each other. Cars isolate us from our neighbors. However, people feel they need to drive because they can't depend on public transportation to fit their schedules. If more money were available, buses, subways and trains could run 24 hours a day. Then they would be available all the time to the people who need them. I always try to take public transportation whenever possible, and I encourage friends and neighbors to try it to. I think we must support public transportation in order to create a better world. Topic 22. We all work or will work in our jobs with many different kinds of people. In your opinion, what are some important characteristics of a co-worker (someone you work closely with)? We spend more time with our co-workers during a week than we do with our family. Thus, it's important for our co-workers to be people we can get along with. I've worked in a lot of offices, and I've found there are certain characteristics that all good co-workers have in common. A good co-worker is very cooperative. She does her best to get along with others. She tries to keep her end of things flowing smoothly to help others in the office. She realizes that if one person doesn't get her work done, it can hold up everyone else. She has a positive attitude that creates a pleasant working environment. A good co-worker is adaptable. She is not stubborn about changes in schedules or routines, and doesn't object to having her job description revised. That can make life miserable for everyone around her. A good co-worker is willing to change her schedule to accommodate another worker's emergency. She has no problem with new procedures and welcomes changes when they come. A good co-worker is helpful. She pitches in when someone falls behind in his or her work. She's willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. She doesn't keep track of how often she has to finish another's work or take on extra work. Some co-workers do their own job, period. They have no sense of office community. They only want to do their work, get paid and go home. A good co-worker is a sympathetic listener, and never uses what she learns against people. She doesn't gossip. A bad co-worker uses negative rumors to take advantage of others. Being a good co-worker isn't too hard, but some people just can't seem to manage it. Wouldn't it be a wonderful world if everyone could? 23)In some countries, teenagers have jobs while they are still students. Do you think this is a good idea? Support your opinion by using specific reasons and details. in modern society, it is very common to see teenagers working everywhere in the city. Whatever part time jobs they are doing, they are preparing for their future. School may be the best place for proper education but not for preparation for the outside working world. Indeed, teenagers learn a lot of things through the jobs they do while they are still students. To start with, teenagers must learn how to arrange their time. For example, an employee needs to work at 7.00 in the early morning. This means he has to present at the company by 7.00 no matter how late he stayed up last night. Moreover, as a student, he has to make good use of his time and spend it properly on both studying and working. He avoids bad habits such as going out late at night and getting up late in the morning [Parallelism: going out / getting up] Another point is that teenagers will appreciate the value of money. They work hard and realize how difficult it is to make money. They also understand that “Money does not grow on trees”. Before buying an expensive clothes or shoes, they remember their parents’ hard work and think more carefully whether they should buy them or not. But of most benefit to teenagers working is that they get some useful experiences which they cannot learn at school. For example, after leaving university, Bill Gates worked outsides and gained valuable experience on what does and doesn't work. Since the time he started his career in a garage, he has now become the most successful man, with the modern development of computer technology. [Needs rewriting] Although teenagers have responsibility to concentrate on their academic studies, part-time jobs are also important for their future work. Personally, I think teenagers should be allowed to do some part-time jobs to adapt to the working environment and get lessons from real life. 28; Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television, newspapers, magazines, and other media pay too much attention to the personal lives of famous people such as public figures and celebrities. Use specific reasons and details to explain your opinion. I totally agree with the fact that (the) media, such as newspapers, magazines, television are paying too much attention to the personal lives of celebrities. My reasons and examples listed below will strengthen my point of view. Television is one of the most convenient and effective sources for people to be entertained and to be informed about the latest information happening in the world. Nowadays, almost everyone has a television set at home. People can just turn the television on and watch any programs they want. However, almost every channel dedicates some of its programs to celebrities and famous people. Some news channels, like BBC, CNN, and ABC talk a lot about famous people. For example, today, I heard that Alicia keys gave birth to a baby boy from ABC news channel. Other media, such as newspapers and magazines also try to keep the celebrities in their headlines. They try to put celebrities’ faces on the front or second page of their magazines so as to attract more people. For example, by the time the news of Brittany Murphy’s and Michael Jackson’s deaths was(were) splashed in headlines across all the newspapers, I saw almost ninety percent of the students carrying a newspaper and reading it so seriously that if they would have been this much determined/curious about their studies, they could have all invented something new. Last but not least, internet is another way to disclose famous people’s personal lives. This can be illustrated by the time we are checking our mails or going to any famous website, such as Hotmail and Google, a new window pops up. In this way, the media forces everyone to know about personal lives of celebrities even if they are not interested. To put all in a nutshell, based on the above discussion, (the) media pays too much attention and gives more priority to the personal lives of celebrities than to any other program 29;Some people believe that the Earth is being harmed by human activity. Others feel that human activity make the Earth a better place to live. What is your opinion? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Human, without any doubt, is the dominant animal living in the Earth. Some people believe that thanks to human activities, the Earth has become a better place. However, there are those who say that that these activities have created several problems to the planet. After considering these two opinions, I totally agree with the latter as the Earth’s environment has been severely damaged by human activities. To begin with, nowadays, almost all countries have to face with water pollution. The main cause of this is that every year, a large amount of garbage is thrown into lakes, rivers, and seas. This irresponsible behavior has resulted in some serious consequences, one of which is the death of many sea creatures and wild animals. It is because not only do they drink the contaminated water but also mistake the poisonous waste as their food. A good example of this is that every year, a considerable number of birds is poisoned as they have eaten plastic bottle caps that were floating on the water. As water is one of the basic needs of every creature, if human do not stop polluting the water, many animal will become extinct in the very near future. Another environmental problems caused by human activities is air pollution. This is mainly caused by gas released from factories or motor vehicles such as cars, trains or airplanes. In my city, air pollution is so severe that people have to wear a mask whenever they go out. This pollution is also known as one of the contributor to global warming. It is because the more greenhouse gases are emitted from factories, the more the sun’s heat are kept near the Earth surface. This has led to the rise of the Earth temperature, which is also known as global warming. I personally believe that human are responsible for all kinds of contamination happening now, including water and air pollution. Those pollutions are extremely dangerous as it not only affect seriously the current generation’s lives, but also the future generation of our planet. 33;You have received a gift of money. The money is enough to buy either a piece of jewelry you like or tickets to a concert you want to attend. Which would you buy? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer. In this world full of surprises, I believe that the best surprise for anybody is to receive a gift of money. If I would receive a gift of money,that would be enough to buy a piece of jewelry or some tickets to a concert that I would want to attend I think I will choose the first option. Fist of all I would buy a nice piece of jewelry because it will last longer, I will enjoy wearing it and showing it around and because it will always be o good reminder of the person who was so nice to give me this gift of money. We can also, consider that buying jewelry is a good investment and it could be consider a treasure.You can even earn some more if the value of gold would rise. For instance in case of an emergency of money we can always sell our gold jewlery. In the contrast, if I would have choose to buy some tickets they would have been good only one time and after that I can keep it just as a "souvenir" and it would not worth money in the future. As any woman, I love to dress up and to wear jewelry. I like to have lots of jewelry, so I can match them with my clothes. I will always enjoy wearing jewelry and show them around. If I would receive a gift of money and I would definitely buy a jewelry with this money because it will always remind me the occasion when I received that gift. For instance my husband likes to buy me a neckless from each new place, city that we visit and I remember about the great time we had in that place every time when I'm wearing that neckless. The last reason for my choice is that even I would like to attend to the concert I'm sure that I could watch the concert on TV or online or I could recorded it on my DVR.So, my choice will make me happy because I will have something nice to wear, something valuable, that will last and in the same time I will be able to see the concert, even if it;s not live.This decision will make me feel like I got both. In conclusion, receiving a gift of money is the best gift ever because it gives you the opportunity to choose what do you want to do or what to buy with it. However, If I would have to choose between buying a piece of jewelry or some tickets to a concert I would definitely choose to buy the jewelry for all the reasons mentioned above. 35.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Attending a live performance (for example, a play, concert, or sporting event) is more enjoyable than watching the same event on television. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion. I do not agree with the statement that attending a live performance such as a play, concert or sport event is more enjoyable than watching the same event on TV, because there are many disadvantages in attending a real performance. Firstly, there is too much trouble in attending a real performance. You have to buy tickets, sometimes stand in a long queue; you have to plan the trip and set out a few hours before the show started. After arrived at the theatre or stadium, you will have great trouble finding a parking place. During a sport event, your personal safety might be jeopardized: the sports funs might get too excited about the event, and throw bottles. Many people might have heard the news that a girl was killed by a puck during a hockey game. If you take public transport or a taxi home after the show, you might find it very difficult to catch a bus or call a cab. Secondly, the seating arrangement can greatly affect the comfort of seeing the show. If your seat is far from the stage or playground, you can't even see the show clearly. People's heads and cheers will distract you from viewing the show, and in the end you don't even know whom you have seen in a play, or who wins in a sports event! Thirdly, there is no flexibility in a real show. After you have been through so much trouble and eventually start to enjoy the show, you might find that you are quite disappointed about the show after all. Unlike watching TV programs, you neither simply change channels nor leave the theatre in the middle of a concert or play. You might spend a lot of money to suffer from a show that you do not like. On the contrary, watching TV at home, where you can make yourself a cup of coffee, sit back comfortably and relax, watch the show closely, and enjoy the realistic image and sound from your SONY home-theatre system. Besides, you can watch programs whatever you like, and go to bed right when the show has ended. Although many people enjoy the excitement of watch a real show, I think nothing is more convenient and comfortable than watch TV at home. 36.“Choose one of the following transportation vehicles and explain why you think it has changed people’s lives.Automobiles, bicycles, airplanes Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.” I do strongly believe that airplanes have changed people’s lives. Longer distances are no longer an obstacle in every day life. The world more and more moves together, people have to be on places all over the world all the time. Without airplanes life would be different. First, airplanes change our lifes in the context of travelling. Years ago we have spend our holidays many miles from our homes. Though that has been nice, with airplanes you have quite more options for your vacation. Nowadays people fly to Thailand or Australia, the US or Africa. It has increasingly gotten easier to explore the whole world. I, for example, enjoy every January a week on the Canary Island. By plane it is just a 2 ½ hour flight, but without it I would have to take a ship, which would take me days if not weeks only to get there. Second, airplanes have also changed the way of business. There are quite a lot of people who frequently fly to meetings or customers. Those frequent flyers work all over the world thanks to airplanes. Without them their jobs wouldn’t be possible to do. Also there are people who work far abroad and only fly home on weekends or on days off. That is to say that people do have the possibilities to work in foreign countries without abandoning their family and friends. A friend of mine does work in Stuttgart, which is only 1 hour away by plane. Thanks to airplanes he gets home every weekend, so he still has his friends here in Austria but works in his dream job in Germany. To sum up, based upon the reasons above, I’m of the opinion that airplanes have changed people’s lives in many positive ways. 39.with the help of the technology, nowadays students can learn more information and learn it quickly With the advanced technology, the students can learn much more information and more quickly than before. I agree with this view is because the technology has made students to get materials more easily and made complicated issues more simple to learn. Firstly, the advanced technology has made students to get learning materials more easily. Today, the Internet has covered nearly everywhere. Students can access the Internet from school, home, and even when they are traveling in all over the world. Nearly All kinds of learning materials can be found in the internet right now. So the student can learn whatever they want in everywhere. The learning process is not longer limited into classrooms and students can learn things everywhere. Secondly, the technology has made the complicated things more understandable. The modern technological tools, such as computer and soft wares, can make hard things to be easier. For example, the computer has made the images of every parts of human body from inside to outside and the computer can show step by step the construction of the body in an alive-like manner, which is impossible before, and with the help of the computer image, it has become much easier for students to learn the structure of human body. Lastly, the high technology has saved a lot of time for students. Students can lean the textbook in electronic format from Internet, and in this way, they do not need to go to library to borrow or read there. By utilizing the saved time the students can learn more. In conclusion, students can learn more things and more efficiently nowadays. The technology has helped to provide more convenient learning materials, has made the complicated-problems easier to understand and also has saved a lot of student’s time. Topic 41. Some people think that human needs for farmland, housing, and industry are more important than saving land for endangered animals. Do you agree or disagree with this point of view? Why or why not? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. The human relationship with nature has always been draw a lot of social concern. Today, many people think that human needs for farmland, housing, and industry are more important than saving land for endangered animals. From my own view point, I strongly disagree with this statement because of several reasons. At the first analysis, what I put in my priority is the ecological balance. It is obvious that nature is a whole system that was constructed by many elements. If one part changes, it will affect all the other parts. For example if the cat or the snake no longer exists, there will be no animal to eat the rat, and the rat will develop very fast to harm our farm. Another example, the fewer places for the deer to live, the less food for the tiger and lion, as the result, these predators will be in danger. At the second analysis, economic growth holds no less important role. It is clearly seen that the extinction of some animals directly affects the economic development. For instance, because most of plants could not pollinate without animal assistance, the disappear of some butterflies and birds brings farmers a lot of difficulties with their fruit trees. Furthermore, many undiscovered abilities of animals can save us loads of money. The elephants, for example, can hear the sound waves outside the range of human hearing range and so amazing that they can replace the expensive tsunami predictor systems. Last but not least, needless to say that human have to take the responsibility to protect our natural environment. The fact is that both people and animals are parts of nature. Nowadays, there are more and more animals than ever in danger of becoming extinct. As human, we have to protect them so that our next generation still able to see these cute animals. In conclusion, not only the ecological balance, economic growth but also the responsibility are the reasons why I choose to disagree with the statement above. I hope that people should consider my analysis to make a proper decision to protect endangered animals. 43. Why do you think some people are attracted to dangerous sports or other dangerous activities? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer? Some people are attracted to dangerous sports or other dangerous activities .There are different reasons such as getting money, fame,discovering new things or overcoming fear or weakness .I think , certain types of people are interested in dangerous activities. In my point of view , some people engage in hard and perilous activities to make more money like a stunt person .They know that other people can't experience like that easily. Some other people try to get attention by doing risky activities like jumping from tall buildings , bungee jumping , paragliding ,climbing vertical cliffs or jumping with a motorcyle over cars.They enjoy being in titles of newspaper or headings of news in television. Other people like doing risky things because they want to challenge their abilities and potentials.They feel sense of satisfaction when they come face to face with their fears ,weakness or problems .They can overcome their problems with this way.For example some people afraid of heights , so these activities give them courage , dare and confidence to overcome their weakness. When someone is in these situations or does these activities , one's adrenaline strats to pump and chemical activities happen in the body . Adrenaline is released in high stress conditions , in excitment or fear. It helps us to run , fight or do these activities , by boosting the heart rate and increasing the breathing rate .So a lot of energy is available when needed . All in all , these dangerous activities that some people are attracted to , need some abilities and feelings like dare ,courage , self-cofidence and some experiences.People play risky sports who enjoy terrified and exciting sports .They may follow fame and money .They want to discover something new or they want to overcome their weakness. 44.Some people like to travel with a companion. Other people prefer to travel alone. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice. Nowadays, there are many people would like to travel to other places during vacations. In the everyday work, they are full of pressure and stress. It is so joyful to take part in a trip and relax, enjoy the break. It is necessary to keep you healthy. However, there are different points of views. Some people would like to travel with a companion while others people believe that it is better to travel alone. In my opinion, I would like to travel with a group of people. First of all, traveling with a companion can enjoy more fun and a lot more advantages. There are a lot more people and play together. During the traveling time, all of them are in one single group. None of them can be separated. It is good to have a handful of people (at least 20-30 people) because they are capable to have more joy. It is because they knew each others before the trip have started. It is easier to join and have some fun to on account of knowing each other's trait and personality. It is extraordinarily influential to the trip. The main purpose of the traveling is relaxed. Knowing each other can avoid the obstacles and difficulty. Therefore, I agree people to travel with a companion. Furthermore, as people knew each other so well, they can have a good communication and conversation. Each of they can more likely to enjoy the trip because they more prefer to be a part of the trip. The trip contains more chatting. People who are well-known others can talk about everyday life. How do they do and everything they would like to say. There are no others thing to obstruct people relationship. Oppositely, under any circumstance, traveling alone is an extremely dangerous thing. One person is more difficult to get help if he or she got any trouble. On the other hand, no matter traveling alone have more freedom, that person can decide the entire trip, it have much less safety, joy, communication and fun.Finally, I strongly agree to travel with a group of people. It is because a group usually has a guide, who they know the place exceedingly well, in the trip. The guide can explain and answer any question that travelers are not sure. Then, the trip are able to add some extra knowledge about the place the trip go. They can learn some historical feature and story. They can made the trip more interesting. All in all, traveling with a companion has a lot of advantages. They are able to have more fun, better communication, safety and more knowledge. On the other hand, they can avoid the danger that person who travel alone faced. Therefore, I am strongly recommend to people should travel with a group of people. 45. Some people prefer to get up early in the morning and start the day’s work. Others prefer to get up later in the day and work until late at night. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice. I always get up early in the morning since I realize that getting up early can benefit both of my physical and emotional health and also can make my time more precious. First, people who get up early always feel fresher than those who get up late. When I get up late, I often still feel sleepy and headache. I could not do anything else on that whole day but sleep. On the contrary, I always feel very active and fresh in the early morning. Maybe, the cool temperature and morning sunshine make me feel like that. It is impossible to get some fresh air if you get up late. Moreover, I am always in good mood when starting my day in the early morning. When getting up early, I can go to work earlier than others. Therefore, I would not be struck in traffic. On the other hand, people who get up late have to spend more time on the road, thus making them frustrating in the morning before starting their work. I also can have lunch earlier which means no many people in cafeterias. I, again, can finish my work early meaning that I spend lesser time on the road while driving my car back to my home. Starting doing anything before others keeps me away from rush time and, thus, maintain my good emotion. Finally, when getting up early, I have longer time during the day to do many activities. I can start and finish my work before those who stay on their bed until late morning. Thus, I left sometime in the evening to do other activities I want such as watching my favorite TV programs, talking with my family and exercising with my friends. People who get up late always finish their work very late. Therefore, after finishing working, they can not do anything else but sleep, thus making their life’s cycle monotonous. In conclusion, I think getting up early can keep me healthy, can make my temperament smooth and can cause my time more valuable. People who always get up late should try to get up early; then you will know getting up early can give you something much more than you have ever thought. 54. One should never judge a person by external appearances. Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.Ta không bao giờ nên đánh giá một người bằng cách xuất hiện bên ngoài. Sử dụng lý do cụ thể và chi tiết để hỗ trợ câu trả lời của bạn. Many people use to judge others from their clothes, faces, and families but in my opinion we should not judge people only via their external appearances. Beautiful faces or handsome persons are very appealing for us but these features are not related to their insides. Traits such as righteously, honestly and so on are the worthwhile features in each person which have superior to any beautiful eyes or modern cloth. Here I explain some statements to justify my opinion. As I concede, it is natural that fitness, fairness, and so forth always preferable in society. People who have these features more than others attract other eyes, but could we say these persons have attracting behavior too? We never should judge persons on their appearances. For instance, Napoleon Bonaparte, who was very short guy, is one of the famous people in the history; besides, many of scientists and great men in the world have had inappropriate faces or clothes but they always stick in our mind because of their admirable characters. Moreover, we never could determine the intelligence or fitness of people in terms of their families or living place. For example, some of people who have high IQ maybe had been growing in a poor family, or a skillful doctor maybe has the addicted father. On the other hand, many of artists and famous persons who are very popular among people have the character in their family life which too deferent from the roles that they have played in the films or theaters. The important features of people are their internal characters and we can find these features by long relationship with them and not by just a glance at them. To sum up, I know that always the appearance of people is very impression in our mind but I believe that we should not permit the external factors of persons have affected our judgment about them, as we don't like to be judged just by our clothes. 60.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Games are as important for adults as they are for children. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Bạn có đồng ý hay không đồng ý với câu phát biểu sau đây? Trò chơi này là quan trọng đối với người lớn khi chúng được cho trẻ em. Sử dụng lý do cụ thể và ví dụ để hỗ trợ câu trả lời của bạn. Nobody can deny the importance of games in human life. It is very attractive not only for children but also for adults. So I think the statement that games are as important for adults as they are for children is true. In my essay, I will show you some reasons to support my opinion. Games are important. You must know that games have two types, mental games and physical games. Both of them are good for adult and children. Firstly, we refer to mental games. Mental games are good for brainpower of people. It upgrades our mental abilities. Almost mental games are intelligent games. They are not only good for children but also for adults to develop their understanding. Playing chess is a clear-cut example. It is easy for people to play. And both adults and children can play chess. When you play chess, your organization ability is upgraded. Moreover, you can practice your patience and your carefulness. Especially, playing chess can help you to practice and upgrade your calculation ability. The second type of games is physical games. It is easy for you to see that the physical games are very good for health of people. For children, physical games are good for their growing up. They need to play physical games to develop their physical ability. Physical games are good for development of bone and muscle of children. On the other hand, playing games is the way for children to learn discipline from the rule of game. For adults, physical games such as playing foot ball or swimming are good for their health. Playing game is the best way for them to relax after working day. In addition to their health, when playing physicals game adults can meet many people so their social relationship is developed. Because of some above reasons, I think people of all age need to play games. Games are good for our mental and physical health. So games are as important for adults as they are for children. 62. What do you want most in a friend - someone who is intelligent, or someone who has a sense of humor, or someone who is reliable? Which one of these characteristics is most important to you? Use reasons and specific examples to explain your choice. Làm những gì bạn muốn nhất trong một người bạn - một người thông minh, hoặc một người có một cảm giác hài hước, hoặc một người đáng tin cậy? Mà một trong những đặc điểm quan trọng nhất đối với bạn? Sử dụng lý do và ví dụ cụ thể để giải thích sự lựa chọn của bạn. For some people, friends are a very important part in their lives. There are many characteristics that a friend needs. However, I think that reliability is the most important one for some reasons mentioned below.First of all, a reliable friend will give you a hand when you need. For example, when you are walking in a rainy days and trying to find a sheter, a reliable friend who pass over are willing to give you a lift to your house. It is the time when you find those reliable friends are helpful to you.Secondly, you can only confide with a reliable friend. If your friend are not reliable, they may tell your secrets to other people. The consequence of that is serious and if you know, you will find that friend is not a good one. You will fear to play with him because you may think he always find the way to tell your storys to others.Thirdly, a reliable friend will not leave you alone when you have difficulties. In our daily life, we often have to face with stress and other problems. In the occations like that, you will need someone who make you feel better. A reliable friend will always be with you, even when you have nothing. It is not the same with the friends who only play with you for your money and power. And as soon as you lose everything, unreliable friends will quickly turn their back on you. At that time, you will feel sadder than you can imagine. To sum up, I believe that reliability is the most important characteristic that a friend need to have. It is a reliable friend who give you a hand, listen to your story and keep secret and stay with you when you have difficulties. The social relationship would be better if the world were filled with only reliable people . 68. Many teachers assign homework to students everyday. Do you think daily homework is neccessary ? In daily life, although daily homework has benefits for students, it will be brought about a large knowledge for each student. But I do not think that daily homework is necessary if many teachers assign homework to students every day because homework daily will make students bored, no free time to do their hobbies and limit their creative thinking. Firstly, as we know, doing homework daily is a good way to widen knowledge but it can be also increased stress. From that, students feel so tired when they must go to the school every day. Besides that, daily homework will make students bored and they do not want to continue studying. When students do anything which they do not like, they are forced to finish homework before going to class in order to avoid criticizing from their parents as well as teachers. Overload assignment makes students exhausted and thus results in the opposite of initial purpose. Students will become a lazy person. The result can be imagined. Thus, homework daily is not good for students. Secondly, daily homework uses up their free time. Students need to take two hours or more to finish their daily assignments after six-hour school in the daytime. They do not have time to develop their hobbies. After whole day classes, they need free time to enjoy another activities. For example, they can swim, play game, go shopping or hang out with their friends. It is better than they have to bring their homework to go back home. At their young age, outside activities can be helped them refresh their mind and they can have more energy to learn new lessons effectively but they do not have time to do it. Therefore, teachers should not assign too much homework to students everyday. Finally, daily homework limits their thinking. Assignment is aimed at testing knowledge we do not know. However, we often can not fluently use knowledge in reality. Instead of doing homework, enjoy outside activities to widen communication are better than doing homework in old book every day. It makes student become a passive person because they have to depend on theory in book too much. Thus, they do not have a change to broaden their mind. In conclusion, I would state again that teachers should not assign too much homework to students everyday because it can be brought result in the opposite of initial purpose such as bored, limit creative thinking and waste free time of students. 70. Some people think that the automobile has improved modern life. Others think that the automobile has caused serious problems. What is your opinion? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Nowadays the automobile is one of the most significant forms of transportation in everyday life. Many people own cars and use them daily, which clearly shows how important they are. Generally speaking, I definitely agree with the statement that cars have improved modern life, for several reasons. Firstly, people are now able to overcome long distances in a short amount of time, which leads to numerous advantages. For example in relationships. Many people are now able to maintain relationships over great distances because they can visit each other regularly by using their vehicle. From my personal experience I recall that my car has always been a great help to see my childhood friends very often although I lived in another city. I was also able to establish a relationship with a friend living 70 kilometers away. Thanks to my car we could see each other at the weekends . Without my automobile we would probably not have been able to develop a relationship. In addition, cars increase the chance of employment because people are able to drive to work and can work further away from home. Furthermore, they are more flexible. My sister for example has always been working all around Ho Chi Minh city and because of that earned more money. She used her car to drive to the other end of the city, worked there during the day and came home for the evening. If she had no car, she wouldn't be able to see her family at the day end Finally, the automobile allows people to travel more often and thus get to know the world. If people do not own cars they are likely to stay in their hometown or village most of their life. They are mainly using public transport and are thus limited in accessing certain areas. There are still places in nearly every country in the world that cannot be reached by public transportation and can only be visited by car. As a result, people who own a vehicle have greater access to more places and will see more scenery of the country. In conclusion, the above stated reasons clearly outweigh the fact that cars cause a lot of pollution because they provide flexibility, which is important in nearly all areas of life. Travelling, social life and employment are highly dependent on the flexibility of a person and there is nothing in the world that makes more flexible than an own car. TOPIC 73: Some people say that computers have made life easier and more convenient. Other people say that computers have made life more complex and stressful. What is your opinion? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Nowadays some may hold the opinion that computers have made life easier and more convenient, but others have a negative attitude; they say that computers have made life more complex and stressful. As far as I am concerned, I agree that computers have brought more advantages than disadvantages to our life. My arguments for this point are listed as follows. One of the primary causes is that computers have improved the quality of life in our society. They have brought to us more conveniences than ever before: whether we book a plane ticket, arrange a travel to foreign countries, or hook up a telephone line, with the help of computers and modern technologies, they can be done in a few minutes by simply a phone call or a few key strokes; we will not have to run from one place to another, and wait for thousands of years before we can get the services we want. There is a further more subtle point we must consider. Because computers can make use of more personal details about people, companies can provide customers with more individualized service than before. Take booking for a plane ticket for example, as soon as the operator input our name and telephone number into the computer, the system can retrieve our information from the database, and it will analyze our previous traveling patterns and habits, and decide the best fair, airline, traveling time and seating for us. The computer can also arrange accommodations after we arrive at the destination. All these can be done in just a few seconds. What is more, computers give people more convenient access to useful information and services. Nowadays computers and internet is ubiquitous in every corner of our world. We use computers in libraries and public agencies to check up for useful information and the books we need. Furthermore we access internet or CD-Rom to get whatever information we want. Before traveling to a new place, we can check on the computer what the place looks like, what spots are must-sees, and how we can get there. We can get information from the internet on how to get a drivers license, how to write an article on a topic, and even take simulation tests on a specific subject. The computer is such a great learning and information tool! Recognizing the fact that computer is so indispensable to our daily life, we can safely conclude that computers have made life easier and more convenient for us. Topic75 : Some universities require students to take classes in many subjects. Other universities require students to specialize in one subject. Which is better?Một số trường đại học yêu cầu sinh viên theo học các lớp trong nhiều môn học. Các trường đại học khác yêu cầu học sinh chuyên về một chủ đề. Thì tốt hơn? Nowadays, more and more universities ask their students to choose one field the school have and then to take the relative classes during the next four years. But is it the best way to educate students? My view point is that it is better for universities to require their students to take classes in many subjects. As far as I concerned, I feel that taking classes in many fields can offer students more opportunities in job hunting and broaden their thinking. First of all, I believe the students who know many subjects have the advantage in job hunting over the students who only master one field. Since almost all graduates have no practical experience, the person who has a broaden knowledge probably wins more attentions of the employers. Because in modern society, a job often require the employee to possesses many aspects of knowledge rather than focuses on one aspect. A position, such as a sales representative in a pharmaceutical company, often needs the candidate have not only the special knowledge on marketing but also some basic knowledge of pharmaceutics. Obviously, the graduate who gained various knowledge such as marketing management and natural science may wins more attention of employers than who specialized in marketing management. Thus, possessing various knowledge probably provides students more opportunities in job hunting. secondly, I deem that by learning many subjects, students can gain different way of thinking which can help them to deal with things. Different subjects can bring students different understand on one thing. Thus, when faced some problems, they can think and handle things from various angles. For instance, as a general rule, natural science often help people to build the rigorous thinking which makes them do one thing reasonably and rationally and does not lets their emotions guide their behavior. However, art, cultivating the capacity of imagination and creation, can facilitate people to self-express and communicate and use the sensitivity to see matters . Therefore, a broaden knowledge on many fields results in a all-round understanding and the both reasonable and sensitive way of doing things. While knowing various knowledge is better than focusing on one subject for students, we should not lose sight of the fact that students will spend much more time and energy on taking many classes on many fields. However, it is worth to cost time when considering the advantages of taking classes in many fields mentioned above. In conclusion, I think universities should require students to take classes in many subjects. Although this education mode may do cost students more time, students can benefit from the various and broaden knowledge in future. In the age of information explosion, there is no denying that generalists will play a important role in society. 76. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Children should begin learning a foreign language as soon as they start school. Use specific reasons and examples to support your position. In modern life, children have more chances to learn foreign languages. It is an advantage because learning a foreign language until you are a child is always easier than learning when you are an adult. Firstly, it is indicated that children have a marvelous ability to learn languages. First of all, because duties of children are eating, playing and studying, they do not think much about life and world, so they can remember new words quickly by watching videos, cartoons, or looking at the colorful books, pictures and real objects or joining some games. Furthermore, it is easy for children to imitate. To them, everything is new, they observer the other people and want to repeat accurately. Therefore, when learning language, they can hear and then repeat words and sentences effectively. This is the basic to teach them pronunciation with native-like accent. Secondly, children have some characteristics that are suitable to learn foreign languages. They are curious and eager to learn interesting new things. Besides, because of children, they are not shy and no fear of mistakes. They can repeat words many times without embarrassment, whereas that is impossible with adult. This helps children remember language easily. Thirdly, because learning a foreign language from starting school, children have more time to practice language. This helps them have good reflection in communication. They feel confident when speaking in a foreign language. They can find scholarship or find a job easily. In conclusion, learning a foreign language as soon as children start school has many advantages, but we should arrange studying time effectively for children, so that they feel that learning a foreign language is very interesting and useful. Topic:77 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Boys and girls should attend separate schools. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Nowadays, when men and women play the equal roles in society, there is no reason to divide boys and girls into separate schools. Attend at the same school will help a lot. They can learn from each other. They will know how to treat the opposite sex friend in good manner. There are many activities in schools that require the participations of both boys and girls. First of all, going to the same school, boys and girls have chances to learn from each other. For example, most boys prefers math to literature while most girls are fond of literature. Consequently, boys may have high scores in math and girls may have high scores in literature. When being at the same class, they will help each other. Boy will tutor math for the girls. And it is the girls’ turns to help the boy learn literature. By doing this, they will enhance their knowledge in both math and literature. Secondly, learning under the same schools, boys and girls will learn how to behave politely to each other. For example, if there are only boys in school, the boys may treat other boys in carefree manners. They may even fight with each other. Learning together and meeting female classmates every day, boys will adjust their behaviors in order to look well before the girls’ eyes. Thus, they will improve their appearances as well as behaviors. Last but not least, the participations of boys and girls altogether in schools’ activities will give more excitement for the activities. For example, when the schools hold a trip out of the city or a summer camp in a forest, how will such activities go if there are only boys or girls take part in? Boys will not know how to cook and girls need someone to protect them. Joining together, they will help each other. This will add more enjoyments for schools’ activities. When learning at the same schools, boys and girls will have chance to learn from each other, know how to deal with the opposite sex friends and give more funs to schools’ activities. They will help them prepare for their adult lives when men and women work together. 79)Your city has decided to build a statue or monument to honor a famous person in your country.

Uncle Ho is a father of nation he was a person who made it possible to achieve independence from French and america rule. He believed in the way of Mac-lenin, which he followed throughout his life to liberation from slavery till he breathed his last. Due to our uncle Ho, our country was able to free itself from the shackles of injustice and slavery. Uncle Ho he spent his entire life for his country and lived a most simple and disciplined life. a father of all peoples always love the people In conclusion, Ho Chi Minh in my opinion truly deserves the respect of people and also the title given to him as the father of the Nation. Any monument/statue in his memory can prove to be a mark of respect for the great personality. 82. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Advertising can tell you a lot about a country. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. In my opinion, I agree that advertising can tell you a lot about a country. It promotes education, business and tourism to international communities. Using advertising can cause employment and income necessary for leading a normal and stable life. To begin with, it can inform international students of appropriate places to study. In the globalization, many people who are rich tend to continue Bachelor or Master degree abroad. With concise advertising plans, foreign students begin to know your country and think about studying here. When admitted into your local university, a lot of money is circulating within a country and increases jobs of service apartments for such international students. People are likely to work as a receptionist or even security guards at an apartment and have money to supplement your family expenses Furthermore, it can attract many investors to do business in your country. In general, many countries have their own potentials such as land and workforce to serve international companies. With good advertising scheme, foreigner companies get information to consider whether your countries are the best choice. If foreigner investors are interested to do business in your country, it may be a good chance to increase a job opportunity for local people to earn for a living. More important, it can draw a lot of tourists to visit your country. Generally-speaking, many countries have many tourist attractions which are unique enough for foreign tourists to relax. With succinct advertising methods, foreigners know about your countries and make a final decision to stay overnight or more. When a number of tourists arrive at your country, a lot of service jobs such as receptionist, tour guide and tour operator act as a good source of money for local people. If they work for one of these jobs, they will have money to feed their family day by day. In conclusion, advertising has many valuable advantages if it is effectively used. It creates more demand for more residents or apartments and people who working for service apartments, improves standard of living for local people who are employed in a foreign company, and make local people decide to take a course concerning tourism so that they will do these jobs to earn a money for their family. 84)Some people say that the Internet provides people with a lot of valuable information. Others think access to so much information creates problems. Which view do you agree with? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion. The Internet Provides people with a lot of information, but is this information valuable, or so much information create problems for us? In my point of view, every thing has its two sides, and the value of the Internet far outweighs the disadvantages it brings to us. First of all the Internet has been beneficial to people around the globe. My view is a commonsense one, based on the fact that the Web is a vast storehouse of information and opinion, which can be scientific, literary, political, sporting or sexual. Anyone with access to a computer and a dialup connection can unlock the door and trawl through its offerings. the Internet can be used as a broad base of knowledge that contributes to the educational system. Students and teachers benefit from the use of the Internet, as well as administrators and others outside of formal education. Students benefit because the Internet provides a resource to supplemental information for any subject. Educators benefit because the Internet provides a vast knowledge base to prepare for topics. People are not only learning from the Internet, they are contributing and sharing knowledge through networked communities. The Internet is the advancement of education for all its users. Secondly Internet can deliver better customer services to people. The Internet is changing the way we do business. Using Internet broadcasting, we are able to target the right audience, prepare and present a technical presentation on a popular topic, interact with new customers, and collect hundreds of highly qualified leads. As Internet companies continue to find innovative ways to leverage the capabilities of the Internet for businesses, the more we will learn how to provide optimal solutions for customers. Which in turn, will greatly benefit people. In conclusion the Internet today is a way to transfer and share information. On the whole, it is a benefit to individuals of all kinds. We do have problems surrounding the Internet that need to be solved, but as with all new technologies there are debates and opinions. Since the Internet technology is spreading, it will soon become as popular as all other forms of communication. If you have not tried 88，Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Telephones and email have made communication between people less personal. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion. Nowadays, people can use many ways to communicate with each other. These include face-to-face contact, writing letters, sending faxes, making phone calls and sending emails. With the popularity of telephone and email, some people worried that they would make communication between people less personal. In my opinion, although telephone and email are not the most personal ways in communication, that doesn’t cause any less personal in communication. On the contrary, these communicative means do enhance personal relationship between people. First of all, one reason is that telephone and email make our communication more effective. I can easily contact people almost anywhere in the world through television or email. When I miss my parents in China, I simply lift the handset and we can talk like face-to-face. Also, I can send an email to my friends and they can instantly receive my email. Therefore, telephone and email make our personal contact more convenient. Secondly, another important reason is that by using telephone or email our communication becomes more frequent. Because these ways of communication are so effective, fast, and cheap, I use them very often. I call my parents almost every week and I email my friends several letters in a month. This frequency of contact keeps us closer. If there is no telephone and email, I have to contact them by visiting in person or writing letters. Usually, I visit my parents once a year due to the distance and I wrote letters my friend occasionally because it is inconvenient. Last but not least from what we have discussed above, it is not necessary to worry about the possibility of making our communication less personal using telephone or email. Moreover, telephone and email as means of communication, together with other means of communication, such as face-to-face contact, have intensified our personal relationship. 90.

Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.Nếu bạn có thể gặp một nghệ sĩ nổi tiếng hoặc vận động viên, người đó sẽ là, và tại sao? sử dụng lý do cụ thể và ví dụ để hỗ trợ sự lựa chọn của bạn. Lai Van Sam from the TV show “Who is millionaire” is the one I would love to meet at least once in my life. He is handsome , friendly, and a full of sense of humor. As a result, she knows celebrities from all over the world. Therefore, I would like him to introduce me some of the celebrities from Vietnam TV station and have lessons from him on how to get along with so many varieties of people across the nation. First and foremost, it is an advantage to be a friend with Mr Sam because he knows so many celebrities from his own show. If I could meet him and be friends with him, I am sure he would give me a chance to meet Mr Thai Tuan, other actors, actresses, or any other celebrities whom I wish to see. On her TV show, he makes many people’s dreams come true and I would like to be one of them. Therefore, I would like to meet him, be friends, and widen the circle of friendship through her. Moreover, I really admire her in terms of a good communicator. He gets along really well with any guests on her show and makes them and the audience smile. I think his communication skill is incredibly high-level. My interest in study is Communication, specifically, Intercultural Communication. How he talks smoothly, makes him guests comfortable to be on a show impresses me and makes me want to learn from his first hand. If I could ever meet him, I would like he to teach me strategies to get along and communicate with people despite of nations. In that way, I am sure I would be able to make a lot of friends across the globe and connect tightly with them . As pointed out above, there are two main reasons why I would like to meet Mr Sam. In order to widen a circle of friendship and obtain knowledge of Communications, Who is millionaire would be the most suitable and beneficial entertainer to meet for me. 92)Some people prefer to live in places that have the same weather or climate all year long. Others like to live in areas where the weather changes several times a year. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice. There is no denying the fact that whether to choose a place that have the same weather all year long, or a place where the weather changes several times a year is a popular topic which is much talked about. Although it seems that normally we cannot tell which one outweigh the other between these two kinds of places, they deserve some close examination. If three criteria were taken into account, I would prefer living in areas where the weather changes several times a year to living in places that have the same weather or climate all year long. There are no less than three advantages in this as rendered below. First, varied weather or climate broadens the range of our pastimes. For example, we can go swimming in summer and go skiing in winter. If the place we live in has only hot weather all year long, like Ca Mau, most of us can never go skiing in our lives. Secondly, the change of climate gives us opportunities to wear many kinds of clothes. Some say it is a waste of money to buy clothes depending on seasons. However, wearing various clothes, looking at others' fashion, and feeling the change of seasons is very interesting for me. Thirdly, changing of seasons is good for our health. When winter comes our body's metabolism slows down, and when summer comes it speeds up, so that our body can maintain a good rhythm. Also snows in the winter can kill a lot of bacteria and bad insects, so that in the spring our chance of being infected to a disease is decreased and we can enjoy nice atmosphere and sceneries. For these reasons, I prefer to live in areas that have several changes of weather. Only these three reasons can make a person draw the conclusion that living in areas that have season changes is better, not to mention there are more. 100)Some people think that governments should spend as much money as possible on developing or buying computer technology. Other people disagree and think that this money should be spent on more basic needs. Which one of these opinions do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer. Một số người nghĩ rằng các chính phủ nên chi tiêu càng nhiều tiền càng tốt về phát triển hoặc mua công nghệ máy tính. Những người khác không đồng ý và cho rằng số tiền này sẽ được chi cho các nhu cầu cơ bản hơn. Mà một trong những ý kiến này bạn đồng ý với? Sử dụng lý do cụ thể và chi tiết để hỗ trợ câu trả lời của bạn. Some people think that government should spend as much money as possible on developing or buying computer technology, while others do not. As far as I am concerned, this money should be spent on some more basic needs, such as protecting the environment and improving the public service. In the first place, nowadays the pollution of environment has become the main concern in the advanced society. The research said that human being would not find the clean water to drink if they did not do some work to keep their water clean. There would be no fresh air if every people in the city drive car to go and from work. And there would be no more wild animals if people let the forest be destroyed like what is to be done now. For example, the forest, which is the main habitat of the various animals, has been destroyed. More and more wild animals face the danger of extinction because of the shortage of habitats. Therefore, there are more basic things that a successful government should do such as keeping the water clean, keeping the air fresh, and keeping the animal healthy. In the second place, some public service, such as the public transportation in the city, also is a big problem. The bus in the rush hours is overcrowded; some people cannot go to work on time because they do not catch the regular bus; some commuters spent too much time on the bus or train because of the traffic on the road. Consequently, government should spend more money to improve their public transportation, which will benefit their people a lot and benefit them instantaneously. From what I have discussed above, everyone can see that there are more things a government should do than buying computer, such as protecting the environment and improving the public service. Therefore, I think a successful government should spend more money on the basic demands of their people instead of spending as much money as possible on developing or buying computer technology. 107. Some people believe that a college or university education should be available to all students. Others believe that higher education should be available only to good students. Discuss these views. Which view do you agree with? Explain why. Some people believe that a college or university education should be available to all students. Others think that higher education should be available only to good students. Maybe both parties have their weights, however, I agree that all students should have the opportunity to receive higher education. To begin with, everyone has the right to receive a better education. It is very important for all the students get higher education. College education improves the quality of people and is a necessary preparation for the later social life. People learn not only knowledge and skills but also interpersonal methods and experience. An higher education experience is of great help in finding a good job and living a good life. Moreover, it is not certain that good students in high school will be still "good" in further education. Many people claim that it is most effective to give Good students higher education. Nonetheless, there is not promise that every good student going to a college will graduate successfully. Jack, one of my university classmates is a good example. He rolled in the university with a very high score. However, he often was absent in class and indulged himself in drinking. Subsequently, failing to pass many exams, he had to drop out. In this case, a university education is not benefit to Jack. However, many students who were not that good in high school can do well in their college. Many of them have the ability and potentiality to study well, but they did not realize the importance of education when they were in high school. After entering a college, they learn by heart, and become good college students. If they are derived the right to higher education, it will be a big loss to them and the society. To conclude, higher education plays an important role in one's life. All students have the right to study in a college or university, that is, higher education should be available to all the students, including both good students and bad students.
