Brainstorming :

Body 1 : serveral benefits of accessing information online

+ give us a range of information -> save time without travelling

+ look for information whenever they want >< librariries : during certain hours

Body 2 : Libraries also have some benefits :

+ provide a quiet environent for student -> can concentrate on their process withou being
disturbed

Libraries offer us a large number of reference as well as material book -> accurate knowledge

Writing :

With the advances in science and technology , the way students get access to information has
changed . Many people believe that acquiring information online might be having a profound
impact on the development of students , thereby it is no longer mandatory to use libraries .
While this could be true to a certain extent , I believe that there is still a great need for
librariries in today’s world .

Clearly , there are several benefits of accessing information online . From an educational
perspective , Internet offers students a wide range of information . Researchers can easily gain
information of different topics without travelling . For illustration , while staying at home ,
students can seek a large amount of information about the Covid Pandemic and some
measures that can be taken to deal with this espidemic . The more they accquire knowledge
online , the more they can broaden their horizons about what happening around the world .
Furthermore , reasearchers can look for information on the Internet whenever they want ,
while libraries can be only visited during certain hours . As a consequence , some people that
are busy their works cannot find useful information during day time

However , I believe that libraries still have special features that online sources can never have .
Firstly , it is undoubtedly that libraries provide a quiet environment that meets group and
individual demands . Therefore , students can concentrate on their researchs without any
disturtbance , which highly contribute to their better overall performance . Moreover ,
documents and materials in the libraries are more reliable than those in the Internet as
librarians spend a large amount of time carefully checking their qualities . For instance ,
Students who are cramming for the exmamination can look for a myriad of reference books
that can cater for their study , which provide accurate information that they need .

In Conclusion , while I agree that there are several benefits of accquiring the information in the
Internet , libraries still play a vital role in our lives .

 Topic :
Children beginning education at 7 years old
+ In the US, more than half of children aged 5 and below are enrolled in either a
kindergarten or a childcare center with the majority of them having at least one
employed parent. This is mainly due to parents wanting to devote more time toward
their careers, thus forcing them to outsource their child-rearing obligations to others.
Child-rearing : the work of taking care of children until they are old enough to take care
of themselves
In some Nordic countries, children do not start their formal education until they reach 8
years of age, with much of their early childhood education defined by play-based
programs that emphasise fun and social skills. This has resulted in those countries
boasting some of the best performing students in the world, often ranking highly in
most educational surveys.
The effect of tourism
Examples : many Americans had a negative perception of Cuba due to the historically
fraught relationship between the two countries in the 1960s. However, once travel
restrictions were lifted, many came away surprised with the rich cultural traditions that
populate the country, from its well-preserved urban architecture to its varied musical
influences and styles. Hence many Americans started to perceive Cuba more positively
owing to their greater firsthand appreciation of its culture.
Examples : a study of 660 volunteers by the Yale University psychologist Dr Becca Levy
found that thinking positively adds an average of seven years to your life
- Some people say that outdoor activities bring more benefits to children’s development
rather than computer games . To what extent do you agree or disagree ?
Doing outdoor activities outside is more advantageous to a child’s overall growth in
comparision to playing games on computers :
- Reach their full physical potential :
+ regular exercise resulting from ball games or playground activities likely increase appetite
+ foster the process of metabolism that break down food into minerals and proteins ,
buiding more muscles,stronger joints and bones
By contrast , video games tend to encourage a sedentary lifestyle , slowing down both
digestion and metabolism -> suffer from a shortage of essential nutrition and the failure to
discharge noxious ( harmful substances )
- Playing outside tend to nurture important mental abilities .
+ This is because it offers kids a chance to stay in touch with nature , observing various
objects , shapes and colors in diverse sizes and positions , which could boost children’s
spatial ( relating to the position , area , and size of things : không gian ) visualisation .
Example : In addition , children seem more excited to engage in face to face conversation
with their peer open air than via a laptop screen . This kind of talk is scientifically proven to
 be conductive to the development of verbal communication skills that are crucial for future
success at school and beyond .
Conclusion : I am of the opinion that outdoor activities are superior to computer-based
ones in faciliating both body growth and mental capabilities in children . That is why parents
should encourage their offspring at least a few hours a day to be at playgrounds instead of
lavishing time on computer or game consoles ( điều khiển )
